Former president, Olusegun Obasanjo, cannot tell us who to vote for in February, youths have said.

The youth, who converged on Abeokuta, Ogun State, for a National Summit, said Obasanjo’s endorsement of Labour Party’s presidential candidate, Peter Obi, is personal.

National Director-General of All Progressives Congress (APC) Professionals’ Council, Seyi Bamigbade, said democracy has gone beyond one person determining who becomes leader.

Bamigbade said: “What matters is acceptability among Nigerians, and Asiwaju Bola Tinubu enjoys this among youths.

“… you should not be distracted by the antics of a former president… You know in whose hand your future is better protected and secured.

“Do not be misled… Rather, let your eye be on the ball, towards taking a strategic action targeted at securing your future.

“APC has an enviable record … which President Muhammadu Buhari has entrenched; a legacy Tinubu will continue with.”

National President of Concerned Youths Electoral Credibility (CYEC), Paul Chinonso, said Obasanjo’s action falls short of a statesman, insisting youths will vote Asiwaju Tinubu next month.
