He stressed that the party is not only youths-friendly but youths-centred and its manifesto is rooted in youth empowerment and women’s emancipation with a view to ushering in peace, progress and prosperity in Nigeria.
“The Chairman added that: “we have made sacrifices and laboured to build the party, we must
stand by the party and vote for the party”.
