We Are Tired of Old Cargoes Leading The North - Arewa Youths | Daily Report Nigeria
SHARE

The Arewa Youth Consultative Forum (AYCF) has declared the north has been under “old political cargoes” for far too long.

The forum lamented the fact that only elders without the welfare of the people at heart, decide who should go for which elective offices in the region.

This was stated by the group’s National President, Alhaji Yerima Shettima, saying the few who know what is right are prevented by other governors from leading the region in the right direction.

Yerima made the declaration during a one-day summit on the north’s democratic future in the year 2023 held in Kaduna State.

Yerima decried the rising tide of kidnapping and banditry in the region, describing the situation as acceptable and a smear on efforts to build a greater North.

He further declared that rescuing the note is the priority and the time is now, warming of dangers a delay till 2023 would bring.

Yerima lamented “It will be extremely hard to convince anybody that majority of our governors are really in charge or have anything tangible to offer, five years down the road. There are of course a few good ones, but we should have gone beyond this position by now. This might even be the reason why majority of these governors are ignoring the substance and chasing the shadows, namely control of social media.

“We have come to the conclusion that the North must focus primarily on the quality, capability and age of our elected representatives for 2023. We are convinced beyond reasonable doubt that the quality of leadership we have got from the North has been disappointing and embarrassing to the political expertise and integrity that our region has been known for.”

“The result of this going-with-the-flow kind of disposition of the youth is the emergence of many incompetent old cargoes as governors and few good ones, leading to general backwardness of our region,” the forum observed.

“The spate of killings and kidnappings can be tackled by voting out the current crop of old, weak, pacified and out-of-touch-with-reality political spent forces as governors,” the forum assured.

Continuing, “We are conscious of our responsibility as youths from the north, to redefine our political and economic focus, to end this bloodshed in the North by bandits and kidnappings in broad daylight.

“This is not the kind of North we deserve and we are very sure it all boils down to majority of incompetent leadership of old and weak politicians – driven by the hunger for absolute power, in the name of democracy.”

“We cannot afford a repeat of the ongoing level of poor governance brought about by recycling old hands. Enough of this running around in circles. It is time to rescue the North from being further taken hostage by the predatory powers of some clueless governors, who have got trillions from the federation account to deal with insecurity, poverty, illiteracy and unemployment but are focusing on emasculating views against their incompetence in the social media and other mundane issues.”

“It’s time to say a final NO to those old, weak, reactionaries and apologetics masquerading as our elected governors, when very few of them are equal to the task of democratic leadership. They are a sharp misrepresentation of the quality of governance that the North is respected for,” the forum stated.
