KEY ACTIVITIES

Our Activities are centered on fully equipping the youth to adequately harness their potentials in all spheres of productive engagements.
SECURITY
Commemoration of the 2020 Armed Forces Day: To futher the spirit of patriotism among our military, the council held a preocssion and prayers in honor of our fallen Heroes. We also made several media appearances across radio and TV channels calling on the youth to give the government and the military the needed support to win the war against terrorisms n other forms of insecurity.
PARTNERSHIPS
Building Partnerships with traditional Rulers for the productive engagement of rural youth. On 25th of January, we embarked on a working visit to he Palace of the Ona of Abaji and Chairman FCT council fo Traditional Rulers, HRM Alh. Adamu Baba Yunusa . our visit centered on exploring vistas of productively engaging rural youths, national peace, security and and harmonious coexistence geared at national development and economic growth and strategies for developing rural areas in bid to decongest the urban areas and curb crimes and isecurity.
ENTREPRENUERSHIP
 Students Trainings on Entrepreneurship and Productivity: The unemployment challenge has been exacerbated by the fact that the greater percentage of students earn go through school with the mindset of getting paid employment on graduation with just a micro few considering self employment options (entrepreneurship). Armed this fact, on 20th February, 2020, we commenced our Students Training on Entrepreneurship and Productivity Project (STEPP) in a session with members of Enactus (formerly known as Students in Free Enterprise - SIFE) from the University of Agriculture Makurdi. This was followed with training of students from other tertiary institutions including University of Abuja and Federal College of Education Zuba before the commencement of the national lockdown. Our trainings have yielded enormous results as most participants have ended up as entrepreneurs and job creators.
STRATEGIC PARTNERSHIPS
 Partnerships with Ministries, Departments and Agencies: To boost the efficiency of government bodies as pertain areas of their respective mandates which affect the youth, the Council embarked on a series of synergy building engagements with these MDAs. On 3rd March, 2020, we commenced with a visit to the National Bureau of Statistics to strategize on our partnership for efficient Data gathering; On 12th March, 2020, we met with the Management of the Rural Electrification Agency to draw up a partnership for exploring options of manufacturing solar panels and other electrical hardware by the youth to power mini industrial clusters in rural communities. The NYCN Leadership also met with the Nigerian Investment Promotion Commission and a host of other MDAs. Thgese meetings granted the Council access to link youths with investment opportunities, funds (grants and loans) for enterprise and possible local and international markets. The resultant effect has been the direct creation of jobs through self employment with the accruing boost in the nations GDP
HEALTH
 Health Awareness Advocacy and Distribution of Palliatives: with the announcement of the spread of Covid-19 in Nigeria, the NYCN commence a robust campaign to curb its spread among the youth. Press Brieifings were held from 26th March and at other dates thereafter, social media campaigns were launched and outreaches embarked upon through the period of the lockdown the Council also reach out with palliatives to some section of youth across the country. The State Chapters also performed creditably well in reaching out to the youth with the lean resources they could muster. Branded face masks, sanitizers and other safety kits were also distributed to the youth.
INFRASTRUCTURE
National Office: On 12th June, 2020 the Council moved into a bigger Office Complex thus giving the Youth a unique address. The Office has also been furnished and receives all class of youth (with ideas and/or challenges) on a daily basis.
