Buhari Calls On Nigerian Youths To Brace Up For Leadership Role

Nigerian President, Muhammadu Buhari, has called on Nigerian youth to brace for the leadership role ahead of them.

He made this statement in Abuja when he received the All Progressives Congress youth leaders from the six zones at the Presidential Villa.

“Whether we like it or not, we will someday hand over to Nigerian youths. And you have to brace yourself for leadership,” he said.

He said that to prepare themselves to lead a country like Nigeria, the youths must keep a broader view of the country by preaching religious and ethnic unity.

He noted that having learnt a bitter lesson from the 1967-1970 Nigerian Civil War, people preparing for leadership roles must not allow anyone to deceive them by promoting disunity among Nigerians.

Buhari said: “Some interest groups will come up with ethnic, religious issues, but you have to look at the broader picture.

“We had a civil war that killed over two million Nigerians, and we learnt our lessons. Nigeria is one country, and no one should take our firmness for granted.”
