[dropcap]T[/dropcap]he Oshimili North APC Youth leader Rtn. Peter Okocha aka Bobo Nkiti, has challenged national, zonal, state and local government youth leaders and all youth stakeholders in the All Progressives Congress(APC) to begin the process of mobilising their peers across the state to select leaders that will meet the aspirations of young people.

Delivering his remarks at the Kefas park in Ibusa, venue of Delta North APC Senatorial Youth  Summit , Rtn. Okocha reiterated the need for more young people to have seats at the table in the next government.  This is because, by God’s grace, APC will win Delta and the entire Delta North senatorial district in 2023. However, it is clear that we cannot win without the strength, network, and influence of the young people in this room.

“I have had the opportunity to meet with our leaders — and we are all on the same page that an APC Federal Government must be a government that works functionally. Therefore, the only way we can be functional is to ensure that young people and women are fully integrated at the onset in all our strategies.

“We have shown that we are not just a party that talks. We work. I strongly believe that any government that comes in has to be a government that has the energy to do the work, and it is only young people that have the energy that we need,” the Oshimili North APC Youth leader said”.

Also speaking in the occasion, the APC Senatorial Youths leader,Comrade Chukwutem Nworgor reminded the youths  that as it stands, there are currently over 12 million Nigerian youths who are not yet registered to vote.

“We need you all to go out there and give these young people a reason to register to vote. You need to start mobilising at the ward, state, and zonal levels.

“And of course, it goes without saying, at this time, young people should not only come out to vote, they should also come out and vie for elective positions. With the new Electoral Act, it is clear that we will have freer and fairer elections — and only young people can and will win,”Nworgor  said”.

Nworgor assured that under his leadership as the Delta North Senatorial youth leader of APC, his doors are open to all, for advice, contributions, saying that he will not take the experience and wisdom of the elders for granted.

He noted that great power comes with great responsibilities, saying that he fully understand the responsibilities that members of the party bestowed on them as youths leaders and promised not to take the position lightly because APC must win Delta State and Nigeria come 2023.

“We seek for your support and help, for we can not succeed alone. We must work together to achieve our desired goals,” he prayed.

He added, “From now on, we take on this responsibility knowing that we stand on the shoulders of committed young men and respected elders of our party.”

According to him, ‘the recently concluded national convention was a testimony to the fact that APC’s maturity is second to none. ‘The organized, peaceful and matured nature of the convention proceedings remains the best Nigeria has ever witnessed  in any other political party in recent times.

‘The peaceful consensus methods employed free, fair and credible elections held for positions that did not go through the consensus are indeed worthy of emulation.

‘This gigantic move came to many youths especially those that are not members of the APC is generally an appealing one and has influenced many to defect to the APC.
