Based on the World Program. of Action on Youths (WPAY), youths are obliged to create a positive impact through initiating innovative projects on sustainable development growth program.

On my own path I can create a positive change by opening a youth radio station that will be managed by youths, from the foundation phase to the operational stage for effective and accurate dissemination of youth information at the community level.
Majority of our youths close to 70 percent are ignorant of the youth activities happening at the grass root level, while 25 percent are aware but not adequately informed on the nature of the programs. and how to participate actively. The set of youths that are aware and are participating fully is only 5 percent, the margin is wide and it is poising a lot of problems to the community because when information is passed on an upcoming event that will take place. Is virtually that nobody attended because 5 percent can not represent their fellow youths properly.

The establishment of a youth radio station will create employment because the staff will comprise of youths throughout and it will curb unemployment in its own quota. The will recruit successful youths out from the streets. When they are fully employed there will be no time for them to roam about in the street causing problems.

The radio station will serve as an institution that will educate the youth on various topics affecting or concerning them in a grand style. Take for instance a 16 year old girl that is coming from an illiterate home where the parents have little or no knowledge about sex education. How will the girl know about the danger facing her because she can contract some venereal infections? Easily or engage in an unprotected sex that may result to unwanted pregnancy and testing positive to HIV/AIDS. Should such a radio station is established and information based on the above topic is discussed, it will serve as a preventive measure to what ignorance would have done to damage the future of the girl child/youth because they are always at the receiving end.
Sometimes illiterate parents are ashamed to educate their wards on the above topic but when it is being discussed by fellow youths who are informed and have created a land mark in that field, fellow youths who are at home listening will be encouraged to do the right thing. Because peer- to- peer training is the best.

The youth radio satiation will provide an exquisite leisure time and entertainment to youths at the community level. I stead of the youths preparing their minds to engage in drug adventure, a youth drama series going on at that time will help to drag their minds away from drugs. This project will provide a platform where youths will showcase their various talents because when their fellow youths will be showcasing their works, it will make those ones at home listening to think of a better project to embark on and showcase as well. When there is no such project going on, their minds will be the devil’s workshop because it is idle at that particular time. I can create a positive by recruiting fellow youths to participate, present topics and initiate numerous youth programmes at the community level through this radio station project.
This radio station project will create various forum where government official, business men and women, politicians and the who is who in the society face to face with youths to discuss and sign a declaration based on youth access and participation in the community. This will be done when they are invited to speak on the role towards youth welfare at the local, national and international level.

This project of mine will see the light of the day should the government, international organization, indigenous and foreign companies, philanthropists and fellow youths will come together and join hands in setting up worthwhile projects like this. In my own way I can help create a positive change because it will go along way to alleviate youth poverty, take them out from the streets when they are employed or are in the studio showcasing their talents, there will be no time for unnecessary things.

Why I chose to create my positive change this way is because the project will not wither in future. Our future is in the hands of youths, this project will pass on from generation to generation.

The name of the youth radio station will be called “YOUTH VOICE FM INTERNATIONAL” or “YVFM INTERNATIONAL” because it will speak for the youth and her staff will be recruited from the various local governments in Nigeria where all the groups will be represented adequately.
I believe that it will be a way I can create a positive change in the communities where youths live.
