Speaking at the events, Mr. Kibreab Tekeste, Eritrea’s Consul General in Germany, called on the youth to have a vision and equip themselves with skills and education and become competitive in their area of activity, refrain from sub-national attitudes as well to strengthen organization and participation in the national affairs.

Mr. Kahsai Tewolde, head of Public and Community Affairs, on his part noted that Eritrean history is the history of resilience and victory and that the secret for that is the political awareness and perseverance of its youth.
