Youth Assembly Day 3 Morning Session Part 1

National Assembly to pass 2016 budget today by John Ameh and Sunday Aborisade, Abuja – After weeks of delay, both chambers of the National Assembly received a report on the 2016 budget on Tuesday from the Senate and the House of Representatives Joint Committee on Appropriation

The Ado about Development Results – I had my first experience of international development as an undergraduate member of AIESEC, the world largest international exchange organization run by student and recent graduates which specialized in International economics and development. AIESEC runs like a mini United Nations, giving its members the opportunity to work on community issues with a global perspective. I joined AIESEC in 1993 and became a member of my University local Executive Committee in 1995. From then till the end of my active work with the Organization in 2003, I held leadership and coordinating positions in three countries (Nigeria, Gabon and France) while I continue to do other development works alongside studies. In many of the assignments I undertook, one thing was common – a continuous attempt to introduce innovation in order to improve the impacts of the actions of a team.
