Two Nigerian nationals from the Nigeria Institute for National Transformation currently in the countrry, have challenged local youth to engage actively in the country’s transformation.

Professors Vincent C. Anigbogu the director General of the institute and his colleague have been in the country teaching youth from various churches on to how attain national transformation at the ongoing Africa Haguruka Conference at Zion Temple.

"Youth have always played a major role, even in African history, in championing different transformational movements. Youthful energy is always good, it just has to be harvested well and with a clear roadmap,. We believe the time to change Africa has come,” Anigbogu said on Saturday.

"That’s why we are very excited with what is happening in Rwanda, Rwanda has actually shown Africa the way to come from challenges of history, tribalism, and divisionism and still put together and build a great nation, Africa needs to learn from that”.

The Nigerian academic urged youth to change their mindset in a positive way and always be persons of integrity if they have to transform their nation.
