Former President Olusegun Obasanjo says the Nigerian youths participating in the nationwide #EndBadGovernance protests are fighting a legitimate course and deserve a listening ear.
“What the youth (protesters) are demanding are very legitimate and should be listened to or why should they be denied what rightfully belongs to them?
“They are frustrated, they are hungry, they are angry, they are unemployed, they deserve to be given listening ears,” Obasanjo said at his residence in Abeokuta, Ogun State.
Obasanjo spoke while receiving six members of the House of Representatives who are co-sponsors of bills on single term of six year, rotation of presidency between the north and the south as well as rotation of governorship slot among the three senatorial districts of each of the 36 states.
The legislators were led by Ugochinyere Ikenga representing Ideato North and Ideato South Federal Constituency of Imo State.(Daily Trust)
