The Founder and President of Isoko -Nation Progressive Like-Minds (INPLM) Comrade Ilaya Efemena Beckly has,
as the world marks International Youth Day, charged all Delta youths, especially the Isoko youths to shun Gambling, drug and substance abuse.

He stated that substance misuse is not just a personal struggle, rather it is a major barrier to progress, robbing young people of their potential, productivity, and future.
“We must take conscious steps to prevent substance abuse and embrace the opportunities before us.
“As a people, we must channel our energy into skill acquisition, education, innovation, and partnerships that will uplift our communities”.

The INPLM President in admonition further noted that “the future of Isoko Nation and Delta State depends on our ability to rise above destructive habits and build together in unity, peace, and progress.
“To every Isoko youth: You are the heartbeat of our tomorrow. Say no to drugs and Gambling. Say yes to your dreams. Let us keep rising together
