2023: We won’t vote old crooks, Northern youths tells APC, PDP

Arewa Youth Consultative Forum (AYCF) has warned the All Progressives Congress (APC), Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), and other political parties that they would support old and corrupt politicians.

They also called on the political parties to field youths into political offices in 2023, or lose their support.

These were the comments of AYCF’s Secretary-General, Nuhu Sani Lere, during a media roundtable in Abuja.

He said, “We are in consultations and have resolved unanimously to vote only parties that elect youths into offices.

“How do you vote for people who are 70 years and above? Or is it those with EFCC cases, Boko Haram sponsors or anti-social media campaigners? Nigeria cannot move forward with these same old crooks with the same songs.

“We need change, and the change begins now. Any party that fails to elect youths into leadership positions in the party risk losing our votes.”
