That's why Ministers and everyone that participated in last year's summit have been invited to come and share with us on progress made thusfar in creating jobs for youth... NB: Uneployment affects everybody including the youth irrespective of their political affiliation that is why YCLSA invited all Youth Political affiliations from all political parties and they have confirmed including the Youth League; I wonder which is the best to get practical answers between the two... Marching or sharing a platform with people who are responsible for creating jobs!!! Plus the YCLSA has a Lekgotla at the beginning of every year that discusses the programme for the whole year!!! Amandla to Ufasimba, it's not about individuals, it's about the youth who are suffering everyday in our country...never forget that!
