Speaking while inaugurating the Students’ Union Government of the University of Abuja, the Senior Special Assistant to the President on Youth and Student Matters, Comr. Jude Imagwe said the initiative was part of the government’s efforts to make live meaningful for students.
According to him, FG would partner with all airline operators in the country to consider any identified student, who chooses to board their plane by not collecting the same amount collected from the working class.
He said if the 'I Fly Student' idea worked in Ghana, “it will also work in Nigeria.”
Imagwe maintained that the on-going transformation in youth development sector of the present administration was more than a mere political rhetoric and superficial, calling on other tiers of government, as well as policy makers to ensure realization of all efforts geared towards youth and women empowerment.
