A political group known as Buhari Youth Organisation, BYO, Ondo State Chapter has lamented what it termed “precarious situation” in the country which had put the masses in penury.
At a meeting with 18 local government coordinators of the group in Akure, BYO noted with dismay that those who worked against the enthronement of democracy and good governance had hijacked the hard earned struggle of the patriots.
A Communique signed by the State Coordinator, Fisayo Falarungbon decried the high level of corruption in the country by those scheming to launch themselves into political offices.
“We have enormous sacrifice to make which demands our collective will to rescue our country from the marauders who want to plunge the country into precipice.
“What Nigeria needs now are youths who can stand for what is noble and dignifying as well as stopping these bad elements in the corridors of power from continuing with their nefarious activities” the group said.
BYO said Nigeria does not need to carry out weapons to achieve peaceful revolution as manifested in the August 9 governorship election in Osun state won by Governor Rauf Aregbesola.
It said “That is what bloodless revolution is all about and we have inspiration, commitment and integrity of Gen.Muhammadu Buhari(rtd) and other leaders in the All Progressives Congress(APC) to offer.
“The Situation on ground goes beyond parochial sentiment, it is an issue that should catch the fancy of all patriots.
BYO said Buhari’s achievements in public office speak volume of discipline and principle as a leader who did not place personal aggrandisement over national well being of the country.
It expressed optimism that APC success would be half-won with Buhari’s emergence as the Presidential Candidate of the party, noting that he has the capacity and electoral value to win Presidential election in 2015 and gives Nigeria a well-defined leadership.
