According to the Vanguard News, the monarch stressed that education, good character, and respect for indigenous values are critical to building a progressive society.

This call comes at a time when the Nigerian youth population is rapidly growing and becoming increasingly influential in various sectors of the society. It is believed that by embracing their cultural heritage and responsible leadership, Nigerian youths can play a significant role in shaping the future of Nigeria.

The Olowu of Owu Kingdom is not the first traditional ruler to make such a call. In recent times, several traditional rulers have been advocating for a more active role of the youth in preserving Nigeria’s cultural heritage and promoting responsible leadership. This call is particularly important given the increasing rate of cultural erosion and the need for a more responsible leadership in Nigeria.
