BEVERLY HILLS, February 03, (THEWILL) – The National Youth Council of Nigeria, NYCN, on Friday disclosed that it has mobilised about 15,000 Nigerian youths to welcome President Muhammadu Buhari at the Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport Abuja, when he returns from his 10-day vacation in the UK.
The President proceeded for the holiday in London, during which he was said to under medical checkups, on January 23 and is expected to resume work on February 6, 2017.
The Special Adviser to the President of NYCN, Murtala Gamji, on Media and Publicity, Malam Gambo Jagindi, said in a statement issued in Abuja that the time had come for Nigerian youths, who are the future leaders of the country to show love, solidarity and support for Buhari.
“The National Youth Council of Nigeria (NYCN) has concluded arrangements to mobilise not less than 15,000 of its members to be at Abuja airport on Feb. 6, to welcome President Buhari from vacation.
“It is on record that integrity, discipline and honesty are gradually returning to our public life unlike in the past when impunity was the order of the day,’’ the statement read.
Jagindi, while berating those spreading rumours of death about the President, said: “we all know that they do not have the interest of our country at heart and are only wishing to carry on with the looting of our treasury in the absence of our president’.
He pointed out that Buhari’s assignment for Nigeria was not yet over, adding that only God could determine who lived or died.
Jagindi commended the President’s efforts to rid the country of what he termed, “undesirable elements’’ who did not mean well for Nigeria and Nigerians.
While encouraging Buhari to continue with the good work as the youths of Nigeria were solidly behind him, he stressed that Nigerian youths under NYCN would continue to support Buhari’s laudable programmes, despite the “corrupt mafias’’ working to undermine the anti-corruption war.
