OVERVIEW OF PROGRESSIVE ABIA YOUTHS
Abia State as a developing state has endured years of political bondage, clan discrimination, insincere leadership and huge misappropriation of public funds. Amongst the southeastern states of the federal republic, Abia ranks lowest thanks to poor leadership. This reality births a need; the need for Abia youths to stand up, stand firm and decide what works for them, to preach the development of Abia first irrespective of religious, political and clanish/regional affiliations.
It is against this backdrop that the duo, Progressive Abia Youths and Abia Youths Charter of Development was formed to chart a new course and usher in a system that works, one that satisfies the needs of today’s generation.
