[Opinion by Yinkaolaito] NigeriaDecides2023: Can Nigerian youth sway…? via thecableng

game of numbers. But given Nigeria’s situation with one of the highest youth populations and numbers of registered electorates in the 2023 general elections, can there be a shift from older-population-dominated elected leaders?

So far, Nigeria’s 1993 general election, with all the hope of a better leader, had been adjudged the best and fairest elections ever in the history of Nigeria. Yet it has its own level of uproars. The 1999 election which produced President Obasanjo was not spared of its misgiving and same for 2003 that ended in 2007.

But the challenge here is that Peter obi does not have a strong established political structure that can help him win the election outside his popularity with the youth, the majority of whom are considered social media noise makers without Personal voter’s cards which can allow them to affirm their choices. Social media political noise-making never translated into any candidate winning an election

Precious Akintulubo, another youth said, “Nigerian youth of today are aware and active. Youth participation is capable of changing the political dynamic and it will”. The commitment of youth towards their candidate is 99% and cash crunch will not determine the outcome in the opposite direction” Precious concluded.Ogunlaja Nifesimi, another undergraduate on his part believes “2023 elections will be one of the best with regards to turn-out of electorates, especially the youth.
