The Nigerian Youth Parliament
The Nigerian Youth Parliament is a non partisan umbrella body for Nigerian youths created in compliance with the United Nations Charter on Youths Development and pursuant to the resolutions of the Commonwealth Heads of Government meeting in the Republic of Malta in 2005 as a platform through which their voices could be heard on government policies that directly affect them.
Following resolutions from the Commonwealth Heads of Government meeting in Malta, Nigeria took steps toward establishing a formal platform for youth engagement in government policy.
The Nigerian Youth Parliament was officially inaugurated in August by the administration of President Umaru Musa Yar'Adua. Rt. Hon. Onofiok Luke served as the pioneer Speaker from 2007 to 2010
The 6th Session of the Nigerian Youth Parliament was inaugurated on February 5, 2025.
In 2025, the NYP participated in the planning committee for the National Youth Conference and held meetings with foreign diplomats to discuss youth empowerment and bilateral relations.
