NGO Trains Children on Electoral Process

Nigeria’s Children and Youth Democratic Electoral Model (CYDEM) says it has placed the necessary machinery on ground to educate children and youths on the basic tenets of democracy and the electoral process.

The CYDEM project initiator, Temitola Odetola, says that the programme is geared towards changing the negative stereotype that democracy and good governance is synonymous to bribery, corruption, rigging, injustice and violence.

Odetola further says hat the programme will soon train some youths in a workshop, adding that four trainees will be selected from each state of the federation to empower them on leadership and self employment skills.
