We welcome this synergy and collaboration, and as a government we assure you that you have our 100% support.
I like to use this opportunity to call on our youths, that whilst we preach prosperity, prosperity will not be monies flying in from heaven. Prosperity will be by just what we have done and the youths should seize this opportunity, because the benefits therefrom are very enormous”
