According to him: “Efforts are being put in place to create a synergy between institutions of government and stakeholders in the youth sector so that issues relating to the youth are mainstreamed into activities of government with a view to giving the youth a sense of belonging towards becoming productive and contributing partners to the overall development of the country,”
