The Minister of Finance, Budget and National Planning, Zainab Ahmed, has urged parents to instill family values in their children as a way to save the country from degeneration.

The minister made the call on Saturday in Kaduna during a stakeholders’ engagement with 77 district heads, religious and community leaders from the 23 Local Government Areas of Kaduna State.

“We are calling the attention of parents that we have failed our children in the sense that the kind of values we use to have is no more.


“We need to remind ourselves that our children need to be upright and that this criminality going on, on daily basis, is not for their benefits and the benefit of the state and country,” she said.


The minister appreciated efforts by the Kaduna State Government in managing security issues in the state.

Ahmed told the stakeholders that the Federal Government has created a N75 billion entrepreneurship support fund, to enable youths in the country to grow their businesses and be economically independent.


The minister explained that the fund would support the youth to actualise their innovative and entrepreneurial ideas, be productive, and employers of labour.

Also speaking at the event, the Minister of Environment, Dr. Muhammad Mahmud, called for collective efforts to tackle the security challenges in the country.

He urged the stakeholders to support the government in addressing the security challenges and unemployment in the country.

The minister advised the youths to be self-reliant, by focusing on skills acquisition and not depending on the government.


Mahmud urged the leaders to be advocates of peace in their respective communities in order to bring about meaningful development.

Earlier, the Kaduna State Deputy Governor, Dr Hadiza Balarabe, appealed to the stakeholders to sensitise their communities on the need to always uphold the law in all their conducts.

According to her, the state government will remain resolute in dealing with any lawlessness and criminal acts.

She also condemned the recent spate of looting and destruction of public and private properties.


“These mob actions are unreasonable and intolerable,” the deputy governor said.

The leaders have failed as public examples and are now calling on parents. Funny thing is parents too are now looking out for the next generation because this generation seems gone.

And The criminality starts from you leaders
You've failed the whole nigerians

Jail una self

Parents that are busy looting are the ones to instill values in their children?
Bia, be very kiaful.

All of them at the top have failed as a leader

The country is also a fool at 60 and I don't want to say fool forever

This shithole under APC have gone to the dogs..

Lawlessness at it's peak.

You've failed not only your children but the generations unborn because non of your generation will be remembered for good. Cursed generation.

Stop the hypocrisy, we know that you have not failed your own children. You all politician are stealing and stock piling money for your children. Your children would only consider you a failure when they realize that you didn't steal enough.
