2019: 300,000 youths support Atiku to replace Buhari as President

No fewer than 300, 000 youths under the umbrella of Concerned Nigerian Youth Development Organisation, CNYDO, have endorsed former Vice President, Atiku Abubakar to run for the office of the president in 2019.

CNYDO said the former Vice President is the right man to take over the mantle of leading Nigeria from President Muhammadu Buhari who he lost to at the All Progressives Congress, APC, primaries in 2014.

In a statement issued by its National Coordinator, Comrade Joel Edegba, CNYDO noted that Nigeria will do well in the hands of Abubakar, if given the opportunity to lead.

The statement reads in part, “We in Concerned Nigerian Youth Development Organisation, CNYDO, with over 300, 000 membership in 30 states have deemed it necessary to support and endorse former Vice President Atiku Abubakar, (Turakin Adamawa), as President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, come 2019 by the grace of God.

“We have carefully assessed the political ideology, track record, achievement and competence of Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, as former Vice President and seen that he is the man that can bring the expected change in Nigeria.

“We are endeared to his commitment demonstrated towards the welfare and well being of Nigerians that are down trodden and forgotten. We are assuring His Excellency our maximal support for his ambition and as part of his move to liberate Nigerians, the youths in particular from the shackles of unemployment, poverty, social vices and stagnated progress by ensuring that he is elected as Nigeria’s next President in 2019.

“Based on his political achievements, prudent manager of human and material resources, a detribalised Nigerian, non-religious and non-region biased nature and understanding in approaching issues that affects the different ethnic and tribal groups in the country we declare that Nigeria will be in safe hands of Atiku.
