Middle Belt Forum rejects proposed youth confab, offers alternative

The Middle Belt Forum (MBF), has rejected the upcoming 30-days National Youth Conference proposed by President Bola Tinubu in his Independence Day speech.

The MBF described the planned confab as another political jamboree only meant to win the support of the youth for the president’s political ambition.

President of the MBF, Dr Pogu Bitrus who dismissed the youth confab during an interaction with journalist on Saturday, said the confab will amount to nothing just as outcomes of previous conferences.
