Comrade Tosin Adeyanju, Executive Secretary of the National Lottery Trust Fund, has called on Nigerian youths to explore opportunities in digital space.
He emphasized the potential of the digital space, stating that it empowers youths and offers global opportunities.
Adeyanju made the call in his presentation as the special guest of honour at the Nigeria Youth Stakeholders Conversation.
The event’s theme was “Digital Economy Transition: Pathways to Global Competitiveness and Sustainable Growth.”
Adeyanju commended the organizers and pledged his continued support for initiatives that promote knowledge among Nigerian youths.
He further shared practical insights on how to utilize phones for remote work, enabling youths to explore flexible and innovative ways to earn a living. He demonstrated how mobile devices can be used to access various digital tools and platforms, facilitating entrepreneurship, freelancing, and online collaboration.
However, he cautioned against the misuse of the digital space, particularly in spreading fake news and promoting disunity.
“Let us use the digital space responsibly and avoid spreading false information that can harm our country and its people,” he urged.
Adeyanju identified various academic courses that can benefit youths and announced a partnership between the National Lottery Trust Fund and the event organizers to support those without technical expertise.
He encouraged Nigerian youths to harness the digital space for unity, growth, and national development.
