Coalition of Civil Societies for Peace and Good Governance has appealed to faceless groups to stay away from the management of the Niger Delta Power Holdings Company, NDPHC, or face the wrath of Nigeria security agencies.


This followed criticisms over the appointment of Engr. Jenifer Adighije as the managing director of the federal government electricity company by some groups.


Reacting to such criticisms, the Coalition of Civil Societies for Peace and Good Governance urged Nigerians to see Mrs Adighije’s appointment as an answered call for gender integration in governance in Nigeria in a critical sector that is very important to national development.


A statement sign by the national secretary of the coalition, Blessing Allie, however urged the newly appointed executives of the company to put in their best to ensure additional values to the nation’s economy through the power company.


“We appeal to the newly appointed executive members to unite towards adding value to the economy.


“We are aware of the credible credentials of the managing director both nationally and internationally, hence enemies of national development should search for another agency.


“Finally, we appeal to Nigeria civil societies to engage themselves in productive ventures capable of adding value to themselves and Nigeria as a whole,” the statement said.

The Director-General of the Citizenship and Leadership Training Centre (CLTC), Ms. Rinsola Abiola, has reaffirmed the Centre’s commitment to raising young Nigerians who are productive, innovative, and imbued with patriotism, service, and integrity.

She gave the assurance on Monday in Abuja in her goodwill message at the ongoing  two-day Retreat on Presidential Priorities and Deliverables — 2025 Mid-Term Review, where she also commended the Ministry of Youth Development, led by Hon. Ayodele Olawande, for championing youth-focused initiatives under the Renewed Hope Agenda of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu.

According to Abiola, the retreat provides a unique opportunity to review and realign efforts to ensure that government policies and programmes translate into measurable impact in the lives of Nigerian youths.

“This retreat is both timely and strategic. It provides a platform to collectively review, align, and sharpen our focus on the priorities of Mr. President. More importantly, it allows us to deepen collaboration within the youth development sector to ensure that government policies deliver real change to our young people,” she said.

Highlighting the Centre’s achievements, Abiola disclosed that over 6,000 youths have been trained in value orientation and re-orientation in the just-concluded half-year period. She emphasized that the CLTC, with its long history of building citizenship values, leadership capacity, discipline, and volunteerism, remains steadfast in supporting the Ministry’s mandate and national priorities.

“We see ourselves as partners in this great task of nation-building. Our goal is to raise young Nigerians who are not only productive and innovative but also committed to the spirit of service, patriotism, and integrity,” she added.

Abiola urged stakeholders and participants at the retreat to bring forward actionable strategies that would strengthen coordination, eliminate bottlenecks, and accelerate delivery on presidential mandates.

She concluded by reaffirming CLTC’s readiness to collaborate with the Ministry and other agencies to advance youth development across Nigeria.
