Speaking through the Member Representing Gusau/Tsafe Federal Constituency, Hon Kabiru Ahmadu Mai Palace, Matawalle stated, “Once you call on the youths to participate, the first query they will ask you is ‘where will I get money?’ However, they must put it in their minds that they need to join and be active in political parties and take it up from there.”
Earlier, the National Secretary-General of the Northern Youth and Students’ Forum, Aliyu Ahmad said the forum comprised Nigerian youths and students from the 19 Northern states and the Federal Capital Territory (FCT).
