In their quest to bring about political change in Katsina State, a group of young members of the Social Democratic Party (SDP) paid a courtesy visit to Dr. Mustapha Muhammad Inuwa, a former Secretary to the Katsina State Government, on Wednesday, March 26.

As politicians, it is our duty to support young people and do everything possible to empower them for a better future. Stay committed to your cause, and with God’s will, you will succeed," he stated.

Discussions during the visit centered on the future of politics, the role of youths in governance, and strategies to enhance their representation in leadership positions.
