They also encourage the association to uphold their mission, vision and objectives.
The traditional leaders extended their regards to Ambassador Eugene Ojua who is the chairman of the state convention and election planning committee for a successful election and the management of the group since the formation of the National Youth Assembly of Nigeria (NYAN ) on September 24, 2023 and appreciating their members for tirelessly engaging in raising awareness among the youth and stakeholders of Ikom about NYAN’s objectives.
