THE Macuata Provincial Youth Council is challenging youths from all villages in the 12 districts to make the effort to visitor contact the council and contribute to their submission to the Constitution Commission.

Accessing all villages in the 12 districts has been a challenge for the provincial youth council that began the consultation process for the proposed constitutional submission hearing in the past few weeks.

Youth council representatives have been deployed to villages in Namuka, Udu, Seaqaqa and Dreketi but the turnout was still not representative of the many other villages they were unable to reach because of lack or no funds at all.

Council president Manoa Tuiwainikai said it was vital that all Macuata youths made the effort to contribute to their submission as concerned youths of the province and as a nation to the significant process being conducted nationwide.

The commission began hearing submissions in Nabouwalu in Bua yesterday.
