Former Vice President and presidential candidate of the African Democratic Congress (ADC), Atiku Abubakar, has urged Nigerian youths to move beyond complaining about poor governance and prepare themselves to take over leadership positions ahead of the 2027 general elections.

Atiku made the call on Wednesday while addressing the ADC National Youth Leadership Summit in Abuja, where he urged young Nigerians to register, organise and participate actively in politics.

He said Nigerian youths had been told for decades that they were the leaders of tomorrow, stressing that “tomorrow has been promised to Nigerian youths for too long.”

Atiku said his message to the youths was not simply to seek their support for his presidential ambition but to encourage them to take ownership of the country’s future.
