We are shaping young kids to be leaders in their communities and also to be healthier.

Unity is strength... when there is teamwork and collaboration, wonderful things can be achieved.

The main thing is that it's nice to see these young people - 9 to 14 years old - take the opportunity to get more involved in their health and fitness. We need more kids to be more active.

Our age gives the more receptive among the young such a sense of social responsibility that one is inclined at times to fear that social interests may encroach upon individual development, that a knowledge of all the ills affecting the community may act as too powerful a damper on the joys of youth.

So many young people are coming out of a generation that has experienced deep woundedness and brokenness, and they are full of life. They are eager to engage. They care about community, and they care about one another.

Our young people are assets to be cultivated and nurtured; let's begin treating them that way.

It's time Africa started listening to our young people instead of always telling them what to do.

But, after all, we are a young nation, and vanity is a fault of youth.

I've been blessed to spend time with young people and help encourage an environment where it's comfortable for them to be who they are. That's precious for children.

I'm about unity.
