A conglomerate of northern youths under the aegis of the Northern Youths Group For Renewed Hope has urged President Bola Tinubu to consider competence and integrity in appointing persons to his administration.
The group made this known in a statement made available to Politics Nigeria and signed by James Sabastine Danbaki.
According to him, Nigeria can only progress when personalities with proven integrity, competence and track performance records are appointed into his government rather than relying on ineptitude and incapacitation.
The group said:
”If he was to surround himself with charlatans, he would risk losing focus and potentially damaging consequences for the country.
“It is clear that President Bola Ahmed Tinubu cannot achieve success in government alone.
“He needs a team of competent individuals who are willing and able to work with him. Yes, it is true that Nigeria is facing a number of challenges at the moment.
“To ensure success in his leadership, President Tinubu is advised to broaden his search for talented individuals beyond political affiliations. He should seek out young, skilled Nigerians both at home and abroad who possess strong interpersonal skills and good judgment.”
The group added that Tinubu must prioritize appointing individuals with proven track records.
The group added:
“Additionally, he should prioritize appointment of individuals with proven track records of success in their respective fields, who are willing to serve with integrity and a commitment to action.
“The president-elect is known as a results-oriented and patriotic politician.
“We charge all Nigerians at all spheres of life to encourage the administration of Bola Tinubu with prayers and unflinching support to enable him deliver on his mandate of dividends of democracy which are indivisible and developed entity called Nigeria,” the group said.
