The All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA) governorship candidate in Enugu, Frank Nweke Jr. has urged youths to secure their future by taking interest in politics and participate in the election of credible leaders.
Nweke stated this on Monday during Chorale Competition organized by Enugu Literary Society and the West African Broadcasting Academy and supported by Ford Foundation, with the theme “My Vote, My Voice” in Enugu.
The event was to encourage young people to vote using music as a motivating factor and making them part of the democratic process.
Speaking at the event, Nweke said good leaders can only emerge when the youths participate in the election of credible leadership otherwise they would lose their voice.
“The theme “My Vote, My Voice” particularly appealed to me and that is, the power that you have.
“I urge you to exercise that power in 2023 and vote wisely across board from Federal to State level,” he advised.
The APGA candidate expressed his excitement and pleasure with the youths for their presentations at the event.
He said, “Listening to all of you makes me even more determined to become your governor in 2023.
“What you have done gives credence to my faith in the young people of Enugu. In your skills, your capacity, in your creative genius and in what Enugu can become with the right leadership.
“I am particularly happy at the new political consciousness that you have as young people and your participation in the political arena”.
