All Progressives Congress (APC) Youth Elements and North-East Youth Forum have opposed 11 Northern APC governors for endorsing southern presidential candidate, saying that their decision does not reflect the opinions of the people in the North.
The youths carrying placards with different inscriptions maintained that the APC should allow a candidate from the North to emerge if the party must remain in power.
Speaking with journalists during the protest yesterday, the state coordinator of North-East Youths Forum APC, Ibrahim Hashim Abdullahi, declared that the Northern youths would not support a presidential candidate of the APC from the southern part of the country.
“We are here to protest and reject the endorsement of 11 APC Governors on power shift to South in 2023. We are not in support of that decision and they did that for their personal benefit and interest. If you look at the APC governors who made endorsement are all outgoing governors and most of them are looking for survival after leaving office that’s why they did that without proper consultation.”
“President Muhammadu Buhari has started a lot of programs and projects that will make the North better, we need someone who knows the North very well and will be able to complete the projects and programs,” he said.
The group also appealed to the national working committee of the ruling All Progressives Congress not to consider the governor’s position as northern youth would never support or vote any southern candidate from the party.
