FORMER PRESIDENT OLUSEGUN OBASANJO CHARGES YOUTHS TO PARTICIPATE ACTIVELY IN POLITICS
Former President Olusegun Obasanjo has challenged African youths to fully participate in political activities as Nigeria gears up for the 2023 general elections in February.
Obasanjo also warned the young population not to allow those he said will mess up with their future to lead them again. Speaking in Abeokuta, the ex-President said that such participation will also guarantee a better future for the young generation as it will not allow those who are messing up their future to succeed.
The former Nigerian leader said the biggest obstacle to effectively removing the barrier is the attitudinal disposition and orientation of the youths. According to him, if the youth can be desperate enough to agree to trek through the desert to get menial jobs in Europe, that spirit should be channelled to eradicate both physical and mental barriers.
