We have come a long way to know that Nigeria Tomorrow needs the Youth Today. Thus, it is imperative that we take the bull by the horn. We have no time to waste and we must attempt to do it right at this point in time. We must start now and we can get it right. Its’ not a group to compete with anyone already in existence, but a society for all Nigerian Youth. However, it is imperative that there exist a control organization that can set a standard for others to follow.
Model Nigerian Youth Parliament (MNYP) will attempt to stand as a platform to lead the Nation to how government should be operated. We will document our activities, employ tactics that would foster unity, peace and progress and enjoy you to participate at all level. All selection, election and delegation would be by a vote. No cabal or caucus can do. We may discuss the issue of Godfatherism as an act for Mentorship only. It must not be seen as destructive but productive.
When we suggested the issue of the Youth Parliament, we discussed its independence and the need to address current issues with effective influence to the Federal Institutions. Today, the need to show the way is paramount as youths fail youths. Every youth in this country deserve to be infoemed that the likes of Gowon, Obasanjo were Military Youths when the assumed office. The likes of Azikwe, Balewa and Awolowo were youths when they kicked off Nationalism. WE HAVE TO MOVE FORWARD.
The Nigerian polity is boiling and the keg powder we are sitting on called Nigeria must not be allowed to blowup. Violence is not the only option when peace is promoted by action. Wars are better fought with promoting and creation of Institutions that stand to address issues and not tissues. Let’s move NOW.
We look forward to the accreditation of the organization as a project of Saving Lives Nigeria, a network group focused on the implementation and domestication of the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) Through the Countries’ adopted Poverty Reduction Strategic Paper (PPRS) tagged NEEDS-2. We plan to start as follow:

State Coordinators:
Must belong to an NGO in their state. Must be able to form affiliations with registered and unregistered bodies.
Sovereign National Youth Conference:

All interested registered and unregistered organization is welcome. We will get there today.

Be the difference. We can make the difference now.
