"Ensuring open communication, fostering valuable feedback, and maintaining transparency are key to effective governance," he stated. "Addressing the challenges faced by the youth requires prioritizing the creation of an enabling environment and infrastructure to empower local talent rather than relying on imported labour."

Barrister Agbaje also commended President Bola Tinubu's administration, emphasizing that "Transparency is crucial in any organization, and President Bola Tinubu's advanced use of digital platforms is a significant step towards achieving this goal."
