Another member of the committee, Rep. Marcus Onobun, described Yiaga Africa as the face and voice of the youths. Describing the responsibility before the committee as huge, Oguche said the House committee could not do alone without partnership and support. He added that the retreat would look at the role of the legislature in youths development in terms of law-making, representation and oversights. “Participate will be exposed to legislative instruments that are valuable to youths in promoting youths development,” he stated. He said that the retreat would look at the Appropriation Act, 2024 from the perspective of youth development to help the committee in its oversight.
