Yahaya Bello our choice of endorsement as the next President of Nigeria come 2023, by the special grace of God.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe only right choice of president that can actualise the collective dreams of Nigerians in the face of our crucial realities is a sincere Nigerian, a compassionate leader and a passionate goal-getter.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThat is what we need as a people.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cGovernor Yahaya Bello is a Nigerian, a willing citizen and a servant of the people, who would rather not be served, but rather serve the country,\u201d Mr Eches said.<\/p>\n<p>The Chief Missioner and Director, Springs of Life Resource Centre, Jonathan Maji, said the choice of Mr Bello was because he had exemplified leadership in Kogi.<\/p>\n<p>According to Mr Maji, Mr Bello has successfully collapsed ethnicity, \u2018godfatherism\u2019, and nipped insecurity in the bud to a certain extent, a prototype of expression of the Nigeria we all dream of.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe has been able to pull a string that if given the opportunity, being youthful, there is something he can drive home at this time.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThat is why the Christian youths have come out to endorse Governor Yahaya Bello,\u201d Maji said.<\/p>\n<p>The Managing Director, Confluence Rice Mill, Segun Olonade who also spoke, urged the youth not to sell their future in 2023, but make use of the current opportunity.<\/p>\n<p>Mr Olonade noted that the choice of Mr Bello as \u201ca youthful and capable president\u201d is a fight for a guaranteed future for the generation beyond.<\/p>\n<p>He noted that Mr Bello\u2019s ideas of a restructured Nigeria, entailed equal representation of all geo-political zones in his cabinet, a principle he had successfully applied in Kogi.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn any gathering, if there is a headcount, the age bracket, 18 years to 50 years, will always take 95 per cent, which categorically reveals that the decision for Nigeria can only be made by the majority, not the minority.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cEvery fight we decide to fight for this course, especially for youth leadership, is a favour to ourselves and for our children,\u201d Mr Olonade said.<\/p>\n<p>(NAN)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"\u201cGovernor Yahaya Bello, considering his leadership strides in Kogi State fits in perfectly for such role.\u201d A
