”As we celebrate this important occasion, it provides an opportunity to reaffirm the BSA-BOJ administration’s unwavering commitment to youth development.
”We remain dedicated to organising youth-focused programmes, capacity-building initiatives, empowerment schemes and other development-oriented programmes designed to equip our young people with the knowledge, skills and opportunities they need to thrive and contribute to the growth of Imota LCDA,” he assured.
Hon. Benson commended Imota youths for their participation and engagements in activities that promote development.
”I commend our youths in the National Youth Council of Nigeria, Imota Local Branch; Imota Youth Development Association; Imota Students Union, and other youth-based organisations across Imota LCDA for their active contributions to the development of our beloved community.
“Your commitment, dedication and hard work are recognised and deeply appreciated. Our administration values your efforts and remains committed to supporting you in achieving your fullest potential.”

”Let us uphold the significance of this occasion by coming together, supporting one another and taking purposeful action to make a positive difference.
”Together, we can build a progressive society of young leaders who are empowered, confident and prepared to take the lead rather than waiting to be selected.
