He opined that as committees of the House, they have a sacrosanct duty to review the nature and assess the success of policies and programmes that are aimed at reducing or resolving unemployment, underemployment and marginalization of youths in our country.
‘It was in the course of this oversight that it was discovered that the ministry of information and essentially her agencies are poorly equipped and funded in a way that inhibit service delivery”.
