He urged the youth to look beyond white-collar jobs that are no longer available and that youths should begin to think out of the box, and evolve ideas and innovations so that they can be supported rather than wait for white-collar jobs that limit their horizons.
Talabi advised the youths to rally around one another, consult widely and come up with innovations and ideas that can be supported to create wealth.

Meanwhile, the Vicar and Archdeacon of the Church, Venerable Olaniyi Olawale in his sermon title “Time to Advance” made an allusion to Deuteronomy Chapter 6 verse 1, where God told Moses that the children of Israel had stayed too long at a spot, challenged the youth to face their fears, highlighting taking a new step, making a turnaround and taking bold steps where and when necessary as requisites conditions for making significant advancement in life.
