Nigerian youths urge Tinubu to address hardship
The National Youth Leaders, under the Forum of National Youth Leaders of all Political Parties in Nigeria (FNYLPPN), have called on President Bola Tinubu to tackle the country’s hardship.
FNYLPPN chairman Eze Onyebuchi Chukwu made this appeal during a media conference on Monday in Abuja.
Mr Chukwu expressed confidence in Nigerian youths to excel beyond their predecessors, acknowledging their forerunners’ achievements in securing independence.
He commended Mr Tinubu’s efforts to alleviate hardship, particularly among young people, through programmes and minimum wage increases.
However, he emphasised that in spite of these efforts, hardship persisted.
Mr Chukwu said the youths were concerned about widespread hunger and hardship, warning that inaction might exacerbate insecurity and trigger hunger-induced crises.
He thanked Nigerian youths for their patience and urged them to remain calm while giving the president more time to act.
