My Dear Esteemed Youths,

It is with great pride and joy that I welcome you all to the celebration of International Youth Day 2024.

This year’s theme, “From Clicks to Progress: Youth Digital Pathways for Sustainable Development,” is a powerful call to action for the dynamic generation that sits before me today.

In this rapidly evolving digital age, you, the youth of our nation, have emerged as the driving force behind sustainable progress. Your mastery of technology has unlocked unprecedented avenues for advocacy, innovation, and community-building.

Through the click of a button, you have the power to raise awareness, mobilize support, and share transformative solutions to the world’s most pressing challenges.

Your digital prowess is not merely a skill, but a vital tool in your arsenal as you forge pathways towards a more sustainable future. Whether it is spearheading online campaigns, launching social enterprises, or cultivating global networks, you have demonstrated time and again your ability to translate virtual engagement into tangible, lasting change.

As we celebrate this momentous occasion, I urge you to continue harnessing the power of digital technology to amplify your voices, foster collaborative efforts, and drive the change you wish to see.

By bridging the gap between clicks and progress, you will not only transform your own lives but also shape the destiny of our beloved nation and the world at large.

Let this day be a testament to your resilience, your creativity, and your unwavering commitment to a better tomorrow. May it inspire you to dream bigger, to innovate fearlessly, and to lead the charge towards a more sustainable, equitable, and prosperous future.

Happy International Youth Day, my dear friends.

The future belongs to you.

Signed:

Rt. Hon. Adewale Egbedun,
Honourable Speaker, Osun State House of Assembly.
