Ango disclosed this during a meeting with the leadership of the Organisation in his office on Tuesday in Lafia.
According to him, “Though Government alone would be overburdened by the yearnings of the youth, it will not shy away from the primary responsibility of making life meaningful for her citizens, including young persons.”
The Commissioner emphasized that the Governor Abdullahi Sule-led administration would continue to create a conducive environment for the promotion of youth-related activities through partnership with relevant Organisations and stakeholders.
