The 6th Youth Connekt Africa Summit is currently in full swing in Nairobi, Kenya, marking a significant gathering focused on youth leadership and innovation for Africa's integration.

This year's summit has garnered unprecedented attention, with over 16,000 young participants, making it the most attended in its history.

More than 30 ministers from across the continent are present, engaging in a'minister's steering committee' to strategize on elevating the summit's impact in the future.

Among these distinguished attendees is Namibia's own Deputy Minister of Sport, Youth, and National Service, Emma Kantema-Gaomas.

She earlier spoke to the nbc News team, sharing key insights into the initiative currently underway.
