He, however, noted that the sentiment attached to indigene factor was robbing the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) of quality representation in the House of Representatives.

“We should disregard the seed of division of indigene versus non-indigene that had robbed us all of quality representation.We must see beyond party politics and brace up to nation building,”Adeyeye said.

According to him, residents of the FCT have for long been faced with poverty, corruption, insecurity, unemployment, religious and ethnic divisions, and poor political leadership and infrastructure among others.

The aspirant said that it was about time abled, young, professional, dynamic and ready to serve youths in the country took over political leadership to enthrone good governance.

He noted that rather than provide credible leadership, enabling environment and a platform for national economic development, the present crop of political leaders were only interested in defection from one political party to the another for personal interest.

He, however, noted that the problems being faced in the FCT and other states of the federation were not different from those in China in the years of reformist Deng Xiaoping and in Singapore in the years of Lee Kuan Yew.

“The only difference is that in those countries, young men had dreams,vision and courage to take on the establishment and chat a new course for their nations.

“These young men im China,.Singapore and Dubai in their prime took actions, they questioned the statuesque,they dared and disrupted bad and wicked order of things.

“Now we the youths of FCT and Nigeria generally must follow in the footsteps of great heroes and these young men that librated their countries,” he said.

Adeyeye further charged youths in the country to stop being servitude to political godfathers and their money politics, adding that it was time youths took their destiny in their hands to save the future generation from slavery.

He added that the reality of the future of Nigerian youths dictates that they use their diversity for innovative economic  solutions and not to allow themselves to be used by greedy politicians.

He said that the reality of the future of Nigerian youths required that they follow the examples of young professionals who had taken over their country’s leadership, citing France, Canada, Austria and Italy among others.

He noted that these countries had realised that the future could only be sustained through systematic transfer of leadership from the old to the young people.

“In Nigeria, we the youth are also ready, prepared and not lazy, lets get it back, lets build our nation, lets dream and run with visions of our hero past,” he said.

Adeyeye said he believed in quality representation and legislative agenda for community development.

Also speaking at the occasion, Prof. Vivian Kosoko, presidential candidate of the Nigeria Peoples’ Party (NPP) in the first republic, urged youths to always respect their elders.

“You need respect to move up  in life, respect, decency, determination and patience is all you need to get to your glorious destination,”she said.
