Award-winning singer, Goldie, has been
conferred a UN Youth Ambassador for Peace by the Federal Government. Under this
title, Goldie intends to further propagate national and world peace through her
music, actions and words.
As a UN Ambassador, Goldie will be joining
hands with other Ambassadors - home and abroad - in making the world a more
peaceful place to live in by getting involved in aid-giving programs in areas
of unrest. “I will be representing Nigeria all over the world, in summits,
world conferences, united nation meetings, I will also go to places of strife
to try and give aid either by philanthropy,
or by mediation.”
Her office will also demand proper report
and relay of pertinent information on U.N. activities to the countries'
diplomatic centres around the world.
She is conscious of the task ahead and is
prepared to use the platform in the best possible way to put Nigeria in a good
place. “Nigerians are naturally peaceful people. We have a few bad eggs though
whose sole aim is to cause conflict and disintegration. These few bad factions
will definitely be weeded out in no time.”
Goldie is looking to building alliances
across the world through this opening. On her thoughts of the Nigerian youth:
“We are hard-working and innately good people. The Nigerian youth just needs to
be appreciated and motivated and giving the right platform.”
Her job as an Ambassador also requires
meeting with delegates from other countries while on international missions and
building professional relationships that will ultimately be beneficial to
Nigeria.
