Minister of Youth Development, Ayoade Olawande, announced the launch on Monday, June 16, 2025, describing it as a turning point in national development.
“This is more than a conference—it is a generational movement, a call to action for Nigerian youth,” he stated.
Originally announced by President Bola Tinubu during his October 1, 2024 Independence Day broadcast, the Youth Confab aims to provide a platform for young Nigerians across the country and in the diaspora to express their views, contribute policy ideas, and influence national direction.
