Baywood Foundation has unveiled a new book titled Beyond rhetoric: Youth empowerment and political voice in Nigeria to urge youths to move beyond the rhetoric of being leaders of tomorrow to taking charge today.
in his address the chairman Baywood Foundation Emperor Chris Baywood Ibe said
“Instead of blaming the youths for vices such as kidnapping, armed robbery, malpractice, violence, HIV/AIDS, cultism and sexual promiscuity, they should be given the power to be involved in policy making decisions that will shape their future, which is the case in developed countries.”
The 18 Chapter book was presented at the Civic Centre, Victoria Island, Lagos on the 7th December 2018, was reviewed by Prof. Patricia Donli of the University of Maiduguri, who described it as “timely and fantastic with a historical background calling for action and change for youths.”
