PRINCE ADEBAYO URGES YOUTHS TO BE ACTIVE IN POLITICS

Emmanuel Alfred

Prince Adewole Adebayo has urged youths to become actively involved in the politics and economy of the nation.

The Social Democratic Party (SDP) Presidential Aspirant stated this on Thursday, June 2, 2022 at the Cyprian Ekwensi Arts & Culture Museum, Abuja where he was a Keynote Speaker at the book launch of “ENECONOMICS”, a book authored and presented by Enejoh James.

He said the future of Nigeria is in the hands of the youths and they should develop themselves adequately in order to cease control of the future.

He further opined that Nigeria has become a Governmental orphanage, citing the current leadership deficit in the country.

In his words: ‘Those who are responsible for the affairs of this country, for leadership, for proper governance, for provision of security and welfare have absconded from that duty. So Nigerians are like the children of a wealthy family who lost their parents and their caretakers are looting the resources without care for the beneficiaries or as a company that is under a hostile takeover’.

He then said that it’s not enough to be angry and complain but the youths must take ownership because those who are in government did same to those before them, and those who are planning to come now are coming in to loot the available resources if unchecked.

‘They are not going to give you even the various basic services that anyone with reasonable competence can give’. Adebayo said.
