Northern youths in the country have asked former Vice President Atiku Abubakar and President Muhammadu Buhari to forget their 2019 bids and allow for a young and vibrant leader.

 

The youths under the auspices of Arewa Youths Coalition said the youths were tired of Presidents, who are too old to cope with challenges of leadership.

 

“Everybody in the country knows that, we are not where we ought to be as a country. That is why we are here to call on Governor Dankwambo of Gombe State to come and contest and rescue our country from the myriad of challenges bedevilling us.

 

“We have chosen Dankwambo because we have seen what he has done in Gombe State. He is a detribalised Nigerian. He has solutions to our economic and security challenges and he can move the country to the Promised Land.

 

“Therefore, we are calling on other contenders within the party to put their ambition aside and support Dankwambo with their resources, their contacts and everything within their possession, because PDP is one big family,” t group said.
