The National President, Arewa Youth Consultative Forum (AYCF), Alhaji Yerima Shettima, has called on Nigerians not to vote on sentiments of religion, tribe or section in the 2023 election, saying that may spell doom for the future of the country.

He advised that Nigerians should cast their votes devoid of any sentiment, saying candidates should be supported based on merit.

Speaking to TRACK news in Kaduna on Thursday, Alhaji Yerima Shettima said, “The constitution of the country has provided Nigerians with another opportunity to elect leaders of their choice to pilot the affairs of the country in the next four years. Nigerians should be able to learn from the mistakes of the past and cast their votes to candidates that have the experience, exposure and are issue-based in tackling the challenges of the country.”

He added, “Nigerians should be conscious and know that this is the country we all belong to and we have no other country. We should be patriotic and should be wise enough not to be carried away by sentiments but we should sincerely give our votes to who will sincerely pilot the affairs of the country successfully for the overall benefit of all.”

“We have hope for better change, hopefully with the situation on ground, everybody has seen it all, Nigerians have become more politically conscious, I believed strongly that Nigerians will look for better options and make a choice among the candidates we have. If we cannot get it right now, then it will be too dangerous for us in the country in the years ahead,” he said
