A Civil Society Organisation, Boys Without Borders Nigeria, has said the continued neglect of boys is a concerning issue that must be addressed, noting that the situation poses a long-term threat to the nation’s development.
According to the Co-Founder and Managing Director of the organisation, Solomon Idowu, there’s a need to bridge the gap created by the neglect of young boys over the years.
He said this while speaking at the Ibadan Boys Conference, an event organised by the non-profit as part of the series of activities to commemorate the International Day of the Boy-child, on Friday.
