Comrade Ogungbade while commenting on restructuring said a lot of views have been generated regarding restructuring and various views on restructuring have been aired.
“Some sections support economic restructuring while others support political restructuring, I want to advise on a holistic approach towards the issue that is continuously gathering momentum in various ethno political groups.
“The fact that the youths are the leaders of tomorrow and the fate of this country lies in the hands of youths, they shun the habit of being political toddlers, footlockers, and sycophants and embrace progressiveness and should be ready to champion courses that are youth-oriented in nature. I want to assure that nothing stops them from vying for even presidential position come 2019”, he said.
He explained further that Nigeria as young, vibrant and brilliant youths that can successfully take up the leadership mantles of any political office come 2019.
