He described the youths as vital sources of development, saying it was essential to inculcate in them the fear of God, positive values of leadership and the spirit of patriotism. He praised Nigerian the youths for demonstrating unalloyed patriotism in many fields of human endeavours, noting that the nation cannot survive as a cohesive and indivisible entity without the patriotic support of its citizens, especially the youths.
He urged Nigerians to pray for fervently for the administration of President Goodluck Jonathan and support his government for the survival of democracy, adding that, Nigerians should manifest God-fearing attitude and righteousness in their service to humanity and God.
