Tinubu made this announcement on Tuesday during his 64th Independence Day Anniversary Broadcast.
According to him, the 30-day Confab will bring together young people in the country to collaboratively develop solutions to issues including education, employment, innovation, security and social justice.

“It will provoke meaningful dialogue and empower our young people to participate actively in nation-building. By ensuring that their voices are heard in shaping the policies that impact their lives, we are creating a pathway for a brighter tomorrow.”
“The 30-day Confab will unite young people nationwide to collaboratively develop solutions to issues such as education, employment, innovation, security, and social justice. The modalities of this Confab and selection of delegates will be designed in close consultation with our young people through their representatives.”
“Through this Confab, it will be our job as leaders to ensure that their aspirations are at the heart of the conference’s deliberations. The government will thoroughly consider and implement the recommendations and outcomes from this forum as we remain resolute in our mission to build a mor inclusive, prosperous, and united Nigeria.”
