The ruling All Progressives Congress has drummed up support for its presidential candidate, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, saying he is a grassroots politician who understands the dreams and aspirations of Nigerian youths.
The clarification was made by the APC Deputy National Publicity Secretary, Yakubu Ajaka, at a town hall meeting with young Nigerians in diaspora, Saturday night, in London.
Ajaka’s claim is slightly in contrast with the popular notion held by political pundits that the average Nigerian youth prefers the candidate of the Labour Party, Peter Obi, who they say has a more robust youth-oriented ideology.
But the APC deputy spokesman believes otherwise, saying the noise about Obi is limited to the realm of social media.
