Africa-Press<\/a> – Nigeria<\/a>. <\/strong><\/span>Governor Kayode Fayemi of Ekiti State has urged Nigerian youths to organise themselves and kick out the All Progressives Congress, APC, from power if they are dissatisfied with the party.<\/p>\n

Fayemi said Nigerian youths should vote out APC rather than relocating to Canada and other foreign countries.<\/p>\n

The Governor spoke during his address at \u2018The Platform\u2019, an annual programme organised by Covenant Christian Centre yesterday.<\/p>\n

Fayemi said rather than relocate to Canada, youths should stay back and help Nigeria become a better place.<\/p>\n

The Chairman of the Nigerian Governors Forum, NGF, also cautioned youths against creating anarchy in the country.<\/p>\n

He said: \u201cDon\u2019t succumb to despondency, there is a lot to hail in this country. There is a lot to frustrate you, a lot to want to make you give up and pick that visa and go to Canada.<\/p>\n

\u201cI know Canada is a popular destination but you know what? There is also a glass ceiling in Canada.<\/p>\n

\u201cAnother election is going to come if you do not like what APC is doing. Organise, stop agonising, organise against the party.<\/p>\n

\u201cLink up with others who are organising and then kick the APC out of office and put people that you think we do better not creating a situation of anarchy.\u201d<\/p>\n

Fayemi charged youths to hold elected representatives in their wards accountable rather than engaging in what he called \u201cTwitter revolution.\u201d<\/p>\n

He lamented that youths now use the micro-blogging site to attack governors, ministers and government officials.<\/p>\n

\u201cGo to the wards, go to the communities and challenge what they are doing there. Hold them accountable,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
