Musa Na Allah Sokoto
The National President of the Nigerian Students in Europe (NANSE) and presidential aspirant for the Nigerian Youth in Diaspora, Bashiru Saidu Muhammad, has called on President Bola Tinubu to reconsider his decision to appoint Mr Dayo Israel as Minister of Youth and Sports.
Muhammad, in a statement made available to newsmen on Wednesday in Sokoto, said: “Nigerian youths are not in support of Israel’s appointment, citing his lack of trustworthiness and leadership skills.
“Dayo Israel is not known to be a good youth leader, and is not known to have the trust of the All Progressives Congress (APC), not to talk of Nigerian youth in general”.
“He does not carry Nigerian youth along and is not a trustworthy person. We do not need such a person as our leader.
Muhammad also called on the President to appoint someone else on whom the Nigerian youth can bestow their trust, someone who can better represent the interests of the Nigerian youth, and someone more experienced.
“We need a leader who is trustworthy, experienced, and has the best interests of the Nigerian youth at heart,” he added.
