The details of the National Youth Council of Nigeria , State chairmen Forum National Convention, the following resolution was reached ,  

1. ON INSECURITY:
The youth are the most affected by the
insecurity bedevilling the nation, we call on the
youth all over the country to rise up and unite
against terror while enjoining our government to
pursue the empowerment of youths as a lasting
solution to youth restiveness.

2. ON ANTI-CORRUPTION:
The issue of corruption in governance of the
country is very disturbing. The Assembly
identifies with the Anti-corruption war being
currently waged by the present administration
but expresses the considered view that
government must be holistic and non-selective in
this war so that questions surrounding the
integrity of the process would not derail the
ongoing campaign or undermine its
effectiveness.

3.ON LOCAL GOVERNMENT AUTONOMY:
The National Assembly and the Presidency
should enforce a complete financial autonomy
for the Local Governments in the country. The
Independent Electoral Commission should take
over the conduct of Local Government elections
as against the States' Independent Electoral
Commission since past experiences have
demonstrated lack of objectivity by the State
Electoral Umpires presiding over the Local
Government Elections.

4. On UNEMPLOYMENT:
The Assembly observes that the youth
unemployment rate remains alarming and
government must rise to act appropriately. The
proposal of a 500 billion Naira welfare package in
the 2016 budget is a welcome development but
considers that a lot more could be done by
ensuring the full implementation of the policy
which should be supported by establishment of
Skills Acquisition Centres across the country.
Programmes of the previous administration such
as SURE-P, YOU-WIN and GIS should be
sustained and built upon.

5. ON EDUCATION:
The highly exploitative tendencies of our higher
institutions such as exam fees, acceptance fees,
convocation/graduation fee, post-UTME and such
other frivolous charges during studies must be
discouraged by Government, Civil Society
Organizations, student bodies and all well-
meaning Nigerians. This is further widening the
illiteracy gap in the country.
Attaining qualitative basic education remains a
mirage in the country when education is one of
the most vital sector that needs to be
addressed.


6. ON YOUTH AFFAIRS:
The Assembly calls on the Youth Minister to, as
a matter of compelling urgency, convene a
National Youth Summit where he is expected to
roll out his measurable blueprint on how to
immediately arrest festering youth restiveness
across the land, combat growing youth
unemployment in the land, achieve financial
inclusiveness, skill acquisition, wealth creation
and youth empowerment with a view to stamping
out crushing poverty engulfing the youths and
ravaging their potentials
