Youths determine next president, carry them along – Ekiti candidate 

The People’s Democratic Party candidate for Ekiti south federal constituency, Henrich Akomolafe, said the youths will determine the next president, so all the presidential candidates should carry them along to ensure they win the 2023 elections.

Akomolafe said the youths remained the only forces that could bring change to Nigeria, therefore, without their support candidates won’t be able to win the elections. So to ensure free, fair and creditable elections, you must carry them along.

According to him, “We’ve seen where the youths of Nigeria are thrown away after elections with fulfilling the promises they made during electioneering. This time would be different. They would guard their votes and vote the most credible people to power come 2023.

“I’m contesting because my people found me worthy to represent them in the National Assembly, that’s why I was given the opportunity in my constituency to represent them.

“I believe the youths have been neglected enough and at my age, I’m going to be the youngest lawmaker to represent my people in Abuja.

“Let me use this time out to celebrate with my Muslim brothers on this auspicious event of Eid-el-Kabir. I pray for blessing and a peaceful nation,” Akomolafe said.
