OPINION BY IBRAHIM FARUK: 60% of youths can determine Nigeria’s next set of leaders | TheCable

BY IBRAHIM FARUK

However, youth candidacy dropped from 34.2 percent in 2019 to 28.6 percent for the 2023 general election. Youth candidacy data analysis from 2015–2023 has swung forward and then backward . This is because of the excessive cost of nomination forms, highly commercialised party primaries, the substitution of candidates, and the deregistration of political parties.Across the 36 state houses of assembly, there were 68 members between the ages of 31 and 35 representing 6.

The 2022 general election in Kenya had the lowest voter turnout in 15 years. Only 65 percent of the 22.12 million registered voters turned up to cast their ballots. The decline in voter turnout was credited to a lack of voter education, low interest by the youth, reduced trust and confidence in the political system, poverty and youth unemployment.
