Chief Executive Officer of the African Peer Review Mechanism (APRM), Prof. Eddy Maloka, has charged the Youth Vanguard of APRM Nigeria to let dedication, selflessness and exemplary leadership be their watchwords.
Maloka made the call during the launching of the association in Abuja with the theme “African Youth: The Hope of Good Governance.”
The association, according to Abolade Ogundimu, media assistant to the NC/CEO AUDA-NEPAD/APRM Nigeria, was launched in line with the commitment of APRM Nigeria to create a platform for Nigerian youths’ engagement with their continental counterparts in the areas of good governance and sustainable development.
