The newly elected secretary for research and publicity in the Forum for Democratic Change national youth league, Patricia Elubu Ayoo has urged the youth to use their talents while they are still young and able
According to Ayoo, the youth have a lot of potential and time to emancipate themselves from poverty and other sociopolitical challenges.
“The youth are the most people with the energy to start. Stand up and do anything regardless of your age, or sex. When you invest your energy, I am sure you shall achieve because there is nothing that goes in vain,” she said
Ayoo was speaking to journalists at FDC headquarters Najjanankumbi on Thursday (October 19) shortly after being declared a winner for publicity secretary in the party’s National Youth League.
