On sunday l arrived in Uganda for the CommonWealth Youth Forum and for the last three days the preparation and the networking has been quite nice.
Nigeria Has two offcial delegates at the forum in the person of Dabesaki the Nigerian Youth Rep and Myself but at the forum l discovered a sweet Nigerisn who is part of the International Planning Committee for the forum Mo Adefeso and another Nigerian living in Diaspora by Miss Soweton, so as always you find Nigeria having a very reasonable representation and this time aroound the representation is of high content and not political at all.
The forum is showing me alot of things about culture and the way of life.The way other people around the world are living their lives and believes are so different yet the needs and the meeting point for young people is so alike.
Today, at the opening ceremony, the UN representative talked about poverty in Urban settlement that l felt so bad that our governments are not planning for the disaster that might happen if we donot work at contrlling urbanization.
Of the presentation the president of Uganda's spech captivated me the most...he really held the audience in his opening speech and l hope that has he would be cheering the CHOGM meeting, he would help in pushing the dlibrations of the youth forum to the heads of states to conider well.
Kampala was SWEET!
