Obasanjo Advises Nigerian Youths To Take Over Power

The former president spoke on Saturday during a special interview with former Super Eagles star, Segun Odegbami, on his Eagles7 Sports 103.7 FM, Abeokuta.

According to him, some corrupt leaders would destroy the so-called tomorrow if the younger generation fails to rise and take their future into their hands right now.

Fielding questions from Odegbami, Obasanjo said, “My advice for Nigerian youths is, never let anybody tell you that you are the leaders of tomorrow.

“If you wait for tomorrow before you take over leadership, that tomorrow may not come. They will destroy it. This is the time, youths get up and make it happen.”

KanyiDaily recalls that Olusegun Obasanjo had previously asked Nigerian youth to make leadership unbearable for the old people in government.
