The Arewa Youth Consultative Forum (AYCF), have declared that failure awaits presidential aspirants like Bola Tinubu and Atiku Abubakar ahead of the 2023 presidential election.
Speaking on Monday, the National President of AYCF, Yerima Shettima, warned that Nigerian youths would not give the likes of Atiku and Tinubu any chance to rule the country in 2023.
Shettima pointed out that Nigerian youths will put Atiku and Tinubu where they belong in 2023.
According to him, the youths are determined to go all out in ensuring that the All Progressives Congress, APC, National Leader, and former Vice President never become the country’s President.

Responding to a question on if the likes of Tinubu and Atiku should be allowed to rule Nigeria or they should step down for the youths, he said: ‘Nobody will give them that chance this time around, but certainly, the youths of this country would make a statement at a given time, you can be rest assured of this.
‘Nobody will stop them from contesting, but certainly nobody will give them a chance; we will drag it together. We will ensure that we use our large number, consult widely, and ensure we put them where they belong.’
Africa Daily News, New York recalls that Tinubu recently declared his life-long intentions to run for the Presidency.
He had made his intensions known when he paid President Muhammadu Buhari a visit at the State house in January.
The former Governor of Lagos State has since stepped up his consultations insisting that his determination to secure Nigeria’s future was responsible for his decision to run for President.
Meanwhile Atiku is yet to officially declare his position but has continued to hold high powered consultations. He had last week met PDP members in the national Assembly.
