World Scouting Delegation Visits Nigeria: Strengthening Collaboration with Local Scouts
The World Scout Bureau is sending a high-powered delegation, led by its Acting Secretary General, to Nigeria from January 20 to 23, 2025. This historic visit underscores the Bureau’s commitment to fostering a stronger partnership with The Scout Association of Nigeria (TSAN) while promoting youth development and community service across the nation.
A key highlight of the visit will be the formal conferral of the title Grand Patron of the Scout of Nigeria on President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, in recognition of his leadership and the Federal Government’s efforts in youth development.
During the four-day visit, the delegation will engage with TSAN leadership to review the association’s progress, address challenges, and explore new opportunities for growth. Special emphasis will be placed on aligning TSAN’s objectives with key initiatives such as the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals, the African Union’s Vision 2063, and the Federal Government’s programs targeting youth empowerment and capacity building.
The delegation is also expected to meet with stakeholders, including government representatives, Scout leaders, and local partners, to foster collaboration and ensure TSAN’s continued role as a valuable public utility organization.
Founded in 1907 by Lord Baden-Powell, the World Scout Movement remains the world’s leading educational youth organization, with over 57 million members spanning 176 National Scout Organizations. The World Scout Bureau serves as the movement’s international secretariat, facilitating its vision of empowering young people to make a positive impact in their communities.
This visit not only highlights Nigeria’s importance within the global scouting community but also reaffirms the commitment of the Scout Movement to nurturing responsible, skilled, and active citizens. It is a significant step toward ensuring that the values of scouting continue to inspire and empower Nigerian youth for generations to come
