I write to bring to your attention the pressing concerns regarding the lack of adequate youth empowerment initiatives in Yobe South. Across various sectors of our constituency, there is a growing sense of disillusionment with your leadership, particularly in the realm of youth empowerment. It is saddening to witness the increasing frustration among constituents who feel abandoned by your office.
Mr Bomai has to bear in mind that the good people of Yobe South are aware of the Zonal Intervention Project (ZIP), where each senator has the opportunity to allocate funds for various initiatives such as motorcycles, skill acquisition programs, or other projects totalling nearly N600 million and beyond. During the Tinubu-led administration, this allocation was increased to 50 per cent. However, the pressing issue is whether Senator Bomai deliberately neglected to implement such empowerment programs in Yobe South or simply overlooked the opportunity.

Senator Bomai, it is essential to reflect on the expectations that accompanied your election to office in both 2019 and 2023. The people of Yobe South placed their trust in you with hopes of positive change and progress, particularly in addressing the needs of our youth. However, it seems that these expectations have yet to be met, leaving many to wonder if their concerns are being heard or acknowledged.
I, therefore, urge you to awaken to the urgency of the situation and take decisive action to fulfil your responsibilities as a representative of the people. Time is of the essence, and there is no room for further delay or complacency. Yobe South is counting on your leadership to enact positive change and create opportunities for our youth to thrive.
