Christian Youths group under the aegis of Christian Youth Leadership Network (CYLN) has lent its support to recent call for a youthful president for Nigeria by former military Head of state, General Ibrahim Babangida, stressing the need for the younger generation to take over Nigeria’s leadership.
“It is not an accident, but a statement of reality from former military President, Ibrahim Babangida, GCFR, that people who should rule the country should be those within the healthy age of far less than sixty,” he said
Arrow head of the Network, Apostle Faith Eches, said in Abuja at weekend that even though the old generation has contributed immensely to the development of the country, it was only compelling now to give the youths a chance
Apostle Eches emphasised the need for a youth to emerge as the next President of the country in 2023, pointing that they were solidly behind the courage so far exhibited by Kogi state governor, Yahaya Bello and would support his presidential ambition
“Christian Youth Leadership Network will support the presidential ambition of the Kogi State governor, Yahaya Adoza Bello, come 2023”
The group which has representatives from the 36 states and Abuja, noted that their resolve became necessary to actualise the collective dream of Nigerians in the face of the crucial realities confronting the country.
“We the youths of this country under the umbrella of Christian Youth Leadership Network represented from the 36 States of the Federation and the FCT have gladly, confidently and most assuredly bestowed upon His Excellency, Governor Yahaya Adoza Bello our choice endorsement to be the next President and Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces Federal Republic of Nigeria come 2023 by the special Grace of God,” ,they however, affirmed
He, therefore, advised Nigerians to play politics without bitterness and support all efforts aimed at ensuring emergence of youths at all levels of leadership in the country.
