Comrade Ogunolu Samsideen Opeyemi, Convener/ National president of the organization through his spokesman Comrade Olorungbotemi Tunde Bright said in a statement in Ilorin, Kwara state that it was time to recognise the role and contribution of youths in nation building.

“It is high time Mr President recognised the roles and contributions of our youths in politics, hence, they deserve the opportunity to serve too. “If we are not too young to run, we cannot be too young to serve.

“If our young men and women can be relied upon prior to and during elections, I see no reason why we cannot be relied upon to serve even at the highest level.

“The modern knowledge and creativity a vibrant 30 year old minister, SA will contribute to our country should not be underestimated,’’ he said.

Ogunolu said it was mind blowing in a painful direction since the President did not put the youths into consideration in his appointments in the last regime.

He, therefore, advised the Buhari to uphold the interest of the youths in his political agenda, saying that it was time Nigeria stopped neglecting the youth.

“It is time we stop looking down on the modern initiatives our youths can bring to the table in areas of governance and our collective development as a people.

“The time has come for President Buhari-led government to stand up for what is right and just to do.

Ogunolu, In a statement made available to the VAM Newsmen, “Rather; my argument focuses on the need for Nigeria to start nurturing her brilliant young leaders now, for tomorrow never comes, but today will always be at it again.

“Give us a 30 year old competent minister, SA, not mediocre appointments like special advisers on social media matters. We do more than tweeting, we are innovative”
