Kwara governor-elect, Abdulrahman Abdulrasaq has said his government will focus on boosting primary and post-primary education in the state.
He also said moral teaching and counselling will be taken seriously to improve the lives of the young people in Kwara.
Abdulrasaq revealed this days back in Ilorin at a summit for youths in the state with the theme: “ Making Kwara Youth a Catalyst for Socio-Economic Development.’’
His words, “Our administration will pay premium attention to the wellbeing of the youths, among others, as a critical segment of our state.
“Building infrastructure across sectors will be key to attracting investments and employment generation.
“This explains our fixation with building infrastructure given the huge deficit of same across the state, especially in parts of Kwara where investment in agro-processing factories would help jump start the local economy and create jobs, ”
“We will make sure that young people are at all times given ample opportunities to prove their mettle in a deliberate bid to make our youths agents of statecraft and catalysts for socioeconomic development in Kwara and Nigeria as a whole.”
