Youths Are Hungry, Angry, Says Ooni
Ooni of Ife, Oba Adeyeye Ogunwusi, has said youths in the country need to be pacified because they are hungry and angry. The monarch said to pacify them, the youths should be empowered. He said “I hereby call on Nigerian leaders either in politics, traditional or religious to know that it is now a necessity to empower the youth. Out of our earnings, let us dedicate part to the empowerment of youths in our areas. We must consider this a necessity and what should be done on a regular basis. “We have just had a sample of youth restiveness and it should be a lesson to all of us that nobody can handle their anger, so it is about time we knew that it is stupidity to keep monies in the bank, while the needy continue to wallow in poverty.”
