The Director General, Community Communications, Mrs Mary Oso Omotosho has charged young people to imbibe the culture of self development in order to realise their God given talents in the state.
She noted that Ekiti State despite its relatively small size, still boasts of immense riches and blessings capable of offering ample opportunities for young women to realize their full potential as hugely available under the Governor Biodun Oyebanji-led administration.
The incomparable mass mobilizeer made the submissions during a presentation with the theme; ‘Charting the Future for Young Women in Leadership’ at the 2024 Leadership and Impact Summit, hosted by the Nigerian Youth Congress (NYC), Ekiti State chapter.
Mrs. Omotosho, who emphasised the importance of young women discovering their purpose, urged them to remain vigilant while avoiding exploitation or manipulation.
She highlighted women’s pivotal role in societal prosperity and development, emphasizing their exceptional managerial and organizational skills.
Admonishing young women not to be constrained by their environment, Mrs. Omotosho rather urged them to focus on self-development, understanding their core values, and avoiding complacency, as complacency stifles progress.
She commended Governor Oyebanji for providing numerous platforms for women to excel in the state as evident in the significant number of appointments given to women in the BAO-led government.
She emphasized the governor’s unwavering commitment to women’s sustainability and welfare in the state.
Some dignitaries that attended the event include: Reverend Tunde Afe, a strategic self-leadership development expert, and Amb. Maxwell Olusegun, the Special Adviser to the Governor on Youth Matters, among other esteemed guests.
