In his address, the Elite Vision Leader of Century Freedom Group International, Ambassador (Engr) Taiwo Siyanbade noted that the vision of La buena vida, a project under the century 21 freedom group international organisation was to help individuals live a good life by raising millionaires through hard work.
According to him, the non-governmental organisation gathered members from all the 18 local government areas of Ondo state to appraise its exploits and celebrate its third anniversary in the state.
Siyanbade noted that the young people should never forget their responsibility to the nation saying they must be determined to be the cause of change.
He however advised them to start dreaming big by joining the organisation saying it is only young people that can move Nigeria forward.
In his words; “You have a responsibility to change your narrative. Everyone is a leader and you can only be a leader when you have the mindset of a leader. Don’t use someone else’s circumstance to determine your path.”
Earlier, in his speech, the Visionary Leader of the Organisation in the state, Ambassador Adeniyi Odewade advised young people to join the organisation immediately saying “This is a call for all of you to get up; don’t ever settle for less. Start dreaming big now.”
Odewade, therefore, urged them to remain steadfast and invest in La buena vida (Living a good life) so as to make poverty a thing of the past.
On the occasion, cheques were presented to some members of the organization as worthy ambassadors to better their lives.
