CALABAR —The US4US Movement has commended President Bola Ahmed Tinubu for the appointment of a young technocrat as the pioneer Managing Director of the newly established South South Development Commission (SSDC), describing the decision as a bold step toward youth inclusion and national development.
In a statement signed by the Convener of the movement, Comrade Richie Romanus, the group expressed "profound joy" over the appointment, saying it reflects President Tinubu's commitment to his Renewed Hope agenda and underscores his belief in the capacity, competence, and credibility of young Nigerians.
"This marks the highest expression of confidence in the sterling qualities of a seasoned technocrat," the statement reads. "Your appointment is a demonstration of President Tinubu's impeccable trust in the ingenuity of Nigeria's youth and a milestone for youth participation in governance."
The US4US Movement called on the new Managing Director to channel her expertise and leadership towards transforming the fortunes of the South-South geopolitical zone, particularly in the areas of infrastructure, human capital development, and educational advancement.
Romanus also urged the new MD to foster synergy with other members of the commission and the teeming youth population in the region to consolidate on the strides already recorded by the Tinubu-led administration.
Reiterating the group's support, the US4US Movement pledged its readiness to collaborate with the commission in achieving its developmental goals.
"Kindly accept our warmest felicitation and assurance of unalloyed support," the statement concluded.
The South South Development Commission was recently established to spearhead regional development initiatives, and its leadership is expected to play a pivotal role in shaping the future of the oil-rich but infrastructure-challenged region.
