The leadership of Nigeria Youth Advocacy For Good Governance Initiative (NYAGGI) has recognised Femi Austine, chief executive officer, Landbrick Properties and Investment Limited as it’s Youth Ambassador.
The recognition is in appreciation of Austine’s patriotic zeal towards youth empowerment, philanthropic gestures, and his unreserved contribution to the real estate industry.
Austine who was decorated by core members and delegates of NYAGGI in the presence of his staff and few friends could not curtail his joy.
In his speech, he thanked the leadership of NYAGGI for counting him worthy to be an ambassador for such a gigantic organization.
He also stated that he hopes to do great things together with the association.
He said that the country’s leadership is now the responsibility of the youths, saying there is a disconnect between the people in government and the people they are governing.
This, he said, places a responsibility on the youths to rise across board and in any sector they operate – whether business, entertainment, media, politics. “This is because now there is a huge demand for leadership.”
