“As a Foundation, we at Dulf believe that youths are truly the future leaders anywhere in the world, Nigeria inclusive. We at DULF are creating awareness and advocacy amongst our youths on future benefits of young African leadership initiative to themselves concerning future capacity building through the available agenda initiated by former American President Obama to inspire, encourage, motivate Africa youths to future leadership capacity building services.
“We believe that leadership is an opportunity either in business or service delivery so that you do not waste the opportunity only to enrich yourself and your family but others who may not have opportunity to say thank you. We also believe that future leaders are identified, they are nurtured, they are equipped, they are mentored for big task of responsibility ahead,” he said.
Ukwu said that it was because they align themselves with Obama’s initiative in remodeling the youths that they celebrate him for the good legacy he is bequeathing to African youths and leaders of tomorrow. “We believe that good leaders must be character driven to make positive impact and leave a positive legacy like Obama through Young African Leadership Initiative called YALI who is a role model to youths in Africa in particular Nigeria,” he said.
Highlight of the occasion was the cutting of the birthday cake specially made to commemorate Obama’s 64th birthday that took place on August 4, 1961.
