Look Beyond Ethnicity, Religion When You Lead Nigeria, Buhari Tells Youth by GODWINLOWSKI: 5:14pm On Jan 10, 2020 |
With all certainty, someday you will have to take up the mantle of leadership in this country, and you should be prepared for huge responsibilities, President Muhammadu Buhari Friday told Nigerian youths in Abuja. The president, who received All Progressives Congress (APC) youth leaders from the six geo-political zones, advised the younger generation to keep a broader view of the country as one entity, and continuously de-emphasize ethnic and religious backgrounds in nation building. “Whether we like it or not, we will someday handover to Nigerian youths. And you have to brace up for leadership.

Nigeria is one country, and no one should take our firmness for granted,’’ he said. President Buhari said he took interest in politics after a clean bill on his integrity by those who detained him after the 1985 military coup and who thoroughly checked his record as governor of the North East, Minister of Petroleum and Head of State and found nothing incriminating. “After I was released and nothing was found on me I took interest in politics. This is what pushed me into partisan politics; to serve with integrity. So I decided to try leadership as a civilian, after taking off the military uniform,’’ he added. On his second tenure, the President assured that he would be more firm, focused and relentless in delivering results, especially in securing the country, stimulating the economy to work for all, and fighting corruption “I am currently serving my last term in office. I swore by the constitution to defend the country, and I will do the needful for the country,’’ President Buhari said. In his remarks, National Youth Leader of the APC, Comrade Sadiq Shuaibu Abubakar, congratulated the President for winning the Presidential elections in 2019, assuring him that the youths will continue to support his policies and vision of greatness for the country. Abubakar urged the President to get more youths involved in governance so as to learn from his “treasured wisdom
