We want to now be involved in making policies and programs that will dictate or determine the governance of this nation.” “The truth of the matter is that the youths of this country has the young, the largest voting constituency in Nigeria, whoever the youths of Nigeria decides to vote for that is the person that will win the presidency come in 2023.” “I will tell anybody, that the biggest mistake any political party has made in Nigeria is the choice of the youth leader of the PDP. The youth leader of the PDP does not have any vision for the party. “The Nigerian young people needs someone who is versed in the alchemy of of intellectualism, who can stand and speak for the young people and can engage the system. “Do you think the PDP national youth leader has what it takes to face any PDP leader to tell them what they should do? If that boy goes to the NEC, he will not be able to maintain a position or canvas a position for the young persons of this country.” “My aspiration is born out of the need to mobilize, galvanize and lead the youth wing of the APC, having served in various capacities in the party. “Without mincing words, I am contesting the national youth leadership because I want mobilize the APC youths. I want to unite them and galvanize them so that we can all together play our role as young people in building a new Nigeria. “The Nigeria of our dream can not be possible without the young minds uniting themselves to provide to provide innovative solutions to the myriad challenges in our country.”
