NOW, YOUTH SPEAK TO NIGERIAN LEADERS IN THE LANGUAGE THEY UNDERSTAND!
It's first because THE GUARDIAN is not known to have had a culture of a back page Column in the past years of News Dissemination and Publishing; this' also the one and only known time a Youth Organization in Nigeria will own the Back Page of a Newspaper; Columns are usually written by Individuals!
With effect from Monday, 9th April 2012, RISE NETWORKS takes over the BACK PAGE of one of Nigeria's foremost Newspapers, THE GUARDIAN!
The concept is to have the YOUTH SPEAK section on the Back Page of THE GUARDIAN, 3 Columns
Vertical- 14inch x 3 inches. This is approximately 1,500 words without photographs and 1,200 words with Photos.
We would therefore welcome writers’ contributions by way of thought provoking, spot on, analytical
opinion editorials on these specified days.

The YOUTHSPEAK Column is an initiative of THE GUARDIAN powered by RISE, as a substantial advocacy space open for all young Nigerians to share thoughts on burning issues of Youth interest covering a wide range of topics such as Governance, Media, Politics, Health, Entertainment, Business, Fashion, Youth. Empowerment, Education, Art, Pop culture etc.
As a strategic and germane platform for Young Nigerians to engage Leadership, engage Society, shift the needle on the impact of Youth Development and contribute to National Discourse on diverse issues especially those that are peculiar to Nigeria, please note that all articles must be concise, topical and non-defamatory!
