A video has been posted on the President’s official account already. It’s a snippet from a speech that President Alvi made in the past, the message of which is directed towards the youth.

The news is spreading across social media platforms and local netizens have posted polarizing responses to the announcement.

Firstly,I felt shocked and disappointed and then I realized that it's a good way to try to reach out and convey some positive message to our "nikammi" youth, who waste most of their time watching useless stuff.
But again,I seriously doubt Mr President that it's gonna be fruitful
