He informed local government chapters governing 24 youth associations and social media platforms that the Emerging Leaders Forum of Nigeria (ELFON) is determined to ensure democratic stability in Nigeria as the only panacea for development and progress through conferences, symposiums and media awareness.
According to him, the best system of governance is democracy and we must all ensure that Nigeria’s democracy remained stable and steady.
“We thank the Inspector General of Police; IGP Muhammed Adamu Abubakar for the establishment of the people oriented initiative; Police Campaign Against Cultism and Other Vices (POCACOV) which will go along way in partnering the youths to reduce social vices within and outside campuses.
“We will not allow any force, elements or destabilising agents in or outside our country to set our beloved country on fire, and as such, We salute the doggedness, intelligence, defence and diligent tactics of the Lt.Gen. Tukur Yusuf Buratai’s led Nigerian Army for withstanding the storm of sabotage and foiling all plots to destabilize Nigeria; hence, we will render our unflinchingly support as Emerging Leaders in Partnership with the Nigerian Army to foster National Unity.
“We remain resolute in doing everything possible to ensure that subversive elements, detractors and other enemies of this great nation do not achieve their aims and objectives of destabilisation in any guise. We will remain thankful to the Nigerian Army for diplomatically and professionally restoring sanity in Nigerian cities by displacing the sponsored hoodlums that hijacked the Peaceful EndSARS Protests,” he said.
The ELFON President stated that the events of the past few weeks in the country have shown the determination of some unscrupulous individuals and groups to destabilise Nigeria by all means.
“We make bold to state that we have mobilized 22 million dogged, patriotic and progressive Nigerian Youths across the 774 LGAs of the Federation to Partner with the security agencies to ensure a One United Nigeria forthwith.
“The forthcoming National Youth Confab, Abuja 2020 will give 1000 national youth delegates the opportunity to brainstorm, come up with a blueprint that will foster national unity, practical youth development and progress.”
