While citing Gov Yahaya Bello of Kogi state as an example, He made it known that the state is enjoying the dividend of having young people in governance as shown in his youthful and purposeful leadership in the state.

He noted that the legacy Nigeria celebrates today were built by our founders when they were youths, hence, the need for them to step down from leadership and provide mentorship to guide the youths coming on board.

 

He frowned at the rumors by scared political opponents as the momentum for the call for Gov Yahaya Bello to answer the call of the youths to represent them for the glorified seat in villa intensifies. Haven proven to be a young performing Governor and has mustered the necessary experience in Governance to lead our dear nation in this trying times.

He said ” if Yahaya Bello accepts the call to lead our Nigeria youths in the 2023 polls it can only be for the seat of the President. For the youths have come of age to grab that which truly belongs to them”

Although, He recognized the part old leaders play in advising the young ones but reinstated the fact that the youths are now ready to take the entirety of the country come 2023.

We have state governors that are young who are doing very well, we are evident of it in Kogi. We have parliamentarians that are young and are doing the needful. I look at a forum or opportunity where in 2023 as election unfolds, we will take over the entirety of this country’’

‘’In USA, barrack Obama was produced by students, Macron of France was the youngest among those that contested because the youths know what they stood for and ensured he emerged’’

‘’The legacy we celebrate today as Nigerians were built by our founding fathers when they were youths, you cannot be a youth yesterday, a youth today and a youth tomorrow, it’s a process. As you ruled in the era of being youths and advanced into an older age, the best you can do is provide mentorship to guide the youths coming on board’’

‘’We are not disrespectful to our elders as young executives in governance, they are people who have also consulted for guidance but as young people, we need to make our voice known now, we need to sting our feet firm on the ground and say enough is enough, the youth is ready to take over Nigeria’’

The PMF president was infuriated by the daring utterances of the Fulani guy on social media who threatened to kill and cause chaos in order to avenge the death of the Fulani hunters “I want to be very realistic,we shouldn’t encourage such threat that is capable of setting the nation on fire,why threaten to kill Christians, what happened in Uromi was not religious,I beckon on the security operatives to search and arrest him before he tears the nation apart”

Finally,he called on other religious leaders in the country to speak out at this point and defend the Christians in the country because they are not the ones that perpetuated the act “I want to implore the fathers of faith and other Christian bodies in the country to stand upright and defend the Christian faith because what happened in Uromi has absolutely nothing to do with the Christians ”
