The Commander-in-Chief of Common Sense army as he is fondly called in
the letter urge the youth to stop having differences over political
matters or political parties but rather should stand for a united
cause so as to achieve greater things together.
His words;
"Youths of Nigeria, I want to communicate with you
today. I noticed that there are too many divisions
amongst our youths and as a stakeholder in Nigeria
and parent of Nigerian children, I believe I ought to
intervene.
Youths, do not make the mistakes my generation
made. Do not see yourselves through tribal and
religious lens. My generation of Nigerians did that
and look where it has led us. You must do better."
He continued "It is foolish for any youth to fight another youth over
APC or PDP.
Let me ask you, what is the difference between the APC and the PDP? Half of the
members of the APC are former PDP members and
vice versa.
Let me ask you youths a question: Do the APC and
the PDP fight over you as you fight over them? How
many ministers have they given you? How many
ambassadors have they given you? How many
heads of parastatals have they given you? That's
right, the answer is ZERO!
So resist the desire of vested interests to control you and use you to
fight other youths on social media and in real life.
"What youths do not realize is that you are victims of divide and
conquer. You make up 60% of the
population yet account for 0% of the federal cabinet!
He also added that, "Your price should be more than a plate of rice
and a handshake. Work together not against each other!
Come on Nigerian youths, be smart!
If you think after you have been used to fight each
other these vested interests will hand power to you,
think again. Their kids who are abroad will do same
to your kids!
It is time to end the hate and come together for
Nigeria's good. Long after we are gone, you will be
around. So learn to get along."
"As I have said and I will keep saying, the youths are the leaders of
today if only they will resist being
used by vested interests.
How old is Trudeau, the Canadian PM. He was 43
when he became PM. You can be much more than a
thug or Twitter overlord. You can be like Trudeau's." he concluded.
The Senator from Bayelsa state recently launch a book which he titled
Common Sense Revolution.
