Mr. Idris Aregbe, the Youth Organising Secretary for the All Progressives Congress, Lagos State chapter, has advised youths to participate in politics.
At the inauguration of a 17-man committee, Aregbe noted that the establishment of the committee was a clarion call for youths to actively participate in all electoral processes so they could be part of the decision making process of the country. According to him, youth involvement in politics will determine the fate of Nigeria’s future.
“For representation, forward-thinking and the future of Nigerian politics, this action is very pivotal. The committee will also create programmes that engage the youth for community development and political education.
“I believe that the youth has the capacity to alter the dynamics of the Nigerian political scene for the better, but this cannot be done if the youths do not take immediate action towards securing the future. His passionate commitment for assembling youths regarding political participation has birthed this initiative. Youth involvement in politics will determine the fate of Nigeria’s future, economically and otherwise. And we must be ready and willing to make those sacrifices.”
Some members of the committee include Tobi Phillips, Demola Fashola, Mobolaji Ogunlende, Nikki Ofondu, Ahabue Borha, Disu Olajumoke, Tosin Ashafa, etc.
