Following the recent changes made by President Goodluck Jonathan in the hierarchy of the country's Armed Forces, the Afenifere Youth Forum (AYF) has charged  the new Service Chiefs to work harder in stemming security and other problems facing the country. The Forum in a communique issued at the end of its meeting and made available to newsmen to Ibadan on Sunday, urged  Nigerians to show understanding and support for the President. 

In a communique issued which signed by Comrades Yinka Fato and Fred Famuyiwa, Chairman and Secretary respectively, the Forum contended that the new Service Chiefs would justify the confidence reposed in them by the people and the President and not bring their high rating down in the estimation of Nigerians by working harder.

At the meeting which had in attendance Executive Council members and State Coordinators of the Forum, President Jonathan was commended for his untiring efforts at finding solutions to the hydra-headed problem of insecurity in Nigeria.  AYF commends Federal Government's new drive at maximizing the abundant solar energy in the country, as exemplified by President Jonathan's recent commissioning in Abuja of the 'Light Up Nigeria Initiative' aimed at providing solar energy for rural communities.

 The Forum opined that the pilot project of the 'light up Nigeria' should be extended to rural areas in the South West without further delay.
