The Corporate Affairs Commission (CAC) has issued the National Youth Council of Nigeria (NYCN) a new certificate of registration having reconstituted the Board of Trustees.
The Commission in a newly issued certificate signed by Registrar General, A. G Abubakar dated 28th October 2020 reconstituted the trustees in line with the provision of the NYCN 2018 Constitution as amended.
NYCN new certificate partly read, “the Trustees previously registered on the third day of November 2017 here by special resolution and with my authority, been reconstituted as follows:
“Rt. Hon.Elizabeth Uyinmwen Ativie, Amb. Sukubo Sara-Igbe Sukubo and Mr Sunday Akin Dare.
“Given under my hand and the Common Seal of the Corporate Affairs Commission at Abuja, this Twenty- Eight day of October 2020.”
As indicated in the CAC certificate of registration, the reconstituted trustees are statutory members of the Board of Trustees (BoT) as stated in Article 7, Section 7.2, Sub – Section B, C and F of the NYCN 2018 Constitution as amended.
Consequently, as reconstituted in the new CAC directive, the incumbent President of the Youth Council, Amb. Sukubo Sara-Igbe Sukubo is now the Secretary of the BoT, while Hon. Sunday Akin Dare, as the serving Minister of Youth and Sports Development and Rt. Hon. Elizabeth Uyinmwen Ativie the only female former NYCN President, are statutory members of the NYCN Trustees.
Towards fulfilling the full composition of the BoT, Amb. Sukubo has asked the Zonal structures of the Council to immediately nominate their representatives into the new board. He asked the Zones to conduct their Stakeholders Meeting to elect their Zonal Representatives in the NYCN Board of Trustees and Advisory Council.
“In line with NYCN Constitutional Provisions, you are to Convoke, preferably before the end of 2020, an NYCN Stakeholders meeting, to elect your zonal representative for the NYCN Board of Trustees…” Ambassador Sukubo said.
