Shamsuddeen, the son of Bauchi State Governor Bala Mohammed, has urged Seyi, the son of President Bola Tinubu, not to reduce Bauchi youths to beggars during his visit to the state.
In a Facebook post on Sunday, Mohammed called on Tinubu to provide Bauchi youths with employment opportunities, resources to start businesses, and training in crypto trading, among other empowerment initiatives, rather than temporary handouts.
He stated, “Please, when coming to Bauchi for the #RHYE, empower our youths with employment, Keke NAPEP, monies to start a business, ICT infrastructure and training for crypto trading and so on.
“Please, we the youths of Bauchi don’t need rice and food in nylon bags during Ramadan.
“Teach our youths how to fish, rather than feed them for one day.
“They are not beggars.”
He emphasized that Bauchi youths do not need food donations but rather opportunities to become self-sufficient.
