YANGG, Crispng partner to promote inclusive governance, sustainable development in Africa
Crisnpg.com, the youth-oriented platform, and the Young Africans Network for Global Goals (YANGG), have partnered to champion inclusive governance and sustainable development in Africa.
In a joint statement, the organisations said the partnership became imperative to achieve more impact in Nigeria and Africa at large.
Kelechi Ndieze, YANGG’s Executive Vice President (EVP) for West Africa, said the initiative would help “YANGG) share our story, reach our public and mobilize the critical mass of young change-makers to join in the mission of achieving the Africa of our dream”.
“We recognise the importance of partnerships and how it drives the realisation of our goals as an organization and actualization of the global goals,” he said.
“In the light of the above, partnering with Crispng.com will help the Young Africans Network for Global Goals (YANGG) share our story, reach our public and mobilize the critical mass of young change-makers to join in the mission of achieving the Africa of our dream.”
YANGG was established to “raise global youth leaders who are rooted in sustainability for African transformation” and “engage enterprising young leaders as pioneers in advocating for development within the African region.”
The organisation currently has its presence in several African nations including Ghana, Nigeria, Senegal, Togo, Morocco, Sierra Leone, Uganda, Burundi, Namibia, Lesotho, Benin Republic, Democratic Republic of Congo, Cameroon, Gambia, Zambia, and Botswana.
On his part, James Ojo, co-founder of crispng.com, said “this partnership is necessary because we share a common vision with YANGG. At Crispng.com, we believe the youths are crucial to birthing a new Africa.
“Sadly, the youths are largely excluded from governance and key policies in Africa. This is why we are passionate about spotlighting the heroics of African youths and their challenges. YANNG is doing great in this regard and we strongly believe that our partnership with them would help achieve a large-scale impact.”
“Crispng is an online medium committed towards achieving societal rebirth. Through our in-depth coverage of issues across the globe, we intend to emphasize the place of individualism and collectivism in nation-building.
“We are an independent, unbiased, and dogged medium with a penchant for time-tested virtues of hard work, integrity, honesty, and truth, which are essential to achieving a sane, fair, and equitable society where everyone is, to a large extent, meaningfully engaged.”
The organisations expressed optimism that the partnership would help achieve their common goals.
