A sociopolitical group, the Nigeria Youth Coalition, has said the economic reforms embarked upon by President Bola Tinubu’s administration will provide a pathway to usher national development beyond 2031.
The group endorsed the President for a second term ahead of the 2027 general elections on Sunday in Lagos during a rally to raise awareness of the importance of collecting a Permanent Voter Card (PVC) and voter participation.
Addressing the gathering, the Director General of Tinubu-Ambo Support Group, Dr. Seyi Bamigbade, reaffirmed the group’s commitment to ensuring President Tinubu’s re-election.
“President Tinubu has laid a solid foundation for Nigeria’s transformation, and the task before us is to consolidate on these gains.
We believe that President Bola Ahmed Tinubu at the federal level will continue accelerating development and bringing renewed hope to our people.”
Speaking to the large gathering of youths, the coalition’s National Coordinator, Dr. Dauda Abdullahi, highlighted President Tinubu’s achievements since assuming office in 2023, stressing that his administration has made deliberate efforts to place young Nigerians at the centre of national development.
According to him, the president has expanded opportunities for youths to thrive in entrepreneurship, technology, and innovation and broadened the country’s infrastructure base to open up new economic frontiers.
He noted that the government’s ongoing investments in agriculture, health, and education remain crucial for driving inclusive growth, reducing poverty, and positioning Nigeria as a leading African economy.
“President Tinubu has shown that he has the political will and vision to create opportunities for the younger generation.”
Abdullahi said. “From the expansion of infrastructure to investments in critical sectors like agriculture, healthcare, and education, his policies aim to build a better future for Nigerians. On this basis, we believe he remains the best option to lead the country beyond 2027.”
The rally, which attracted youths, community leaders, and political stakeholders, also served as a sensitisation forum to encourage eligible Nigerians, particularly first-time voters, to collect their PVCs before the elections.
Organisers emphasised that voter participation was the most effective way of consolidating democracy and ensuring that young people’s voices were heard in governance.
