“I want to appreciate the Governor for changing the narrative this time around by engaging the youth, this is a very commendable effort and approach and we will work towards achieving set goals.

“We want to also assure you all that it will no longer be business as usual because we are bringing in all that we have so that we can move this state forward ” She said
