Arewa Youth Forum Urges Northern Youths to Vote Consciously
The Arewa Youth Forum (AYF) convened an expanded emergency meeting of its national executive and state chairmen at the Arewa House in Kaduna, where they issued a communique advising Nigerian youths, particularly in the north, to vote with their conscience in the upcoming 2027 general elections. The communique, signed by the forum’s national director of publicity, Bello Abdulhamid, highlighted the worsening insecurity across the North-East, North-West, and North-Central regions, leading to community displacement and loss of lives.
The AYF criticized the current administration's economic reforms for causing high inflation, rising living costs, and mass unemployment. They also expressed concerns about electricity supply and its impact on youth-run businesses.
The forum called for comprehensive reforms in education and healthcare. They urged youths to remain united, obtain their Permanent Voter Cards (PVCs), reject vote-selling, and protect their votes from polling units to collation centres.
