Ajayi,who made the call in an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria(NAN) in Osogbo, stressed the need to make youths more responsible and productive.
He said that the level of social consciousness of the youths were low considering the enormous responsibility of nation-building before them hence, the need for social reorientation.
The ALGON chairman added that many of the youths were not ready to take up responsibility and rather prefer easy route to success and wealth.
