Youth Advocate for Justice has given President Muhammadu Buhari an
eight-week ultimatum to either resign or form an interim government
following his absence from the country for more than 53 days.
The group warned that if the president fails to comply with the
ultimatum, it would lead seven million youths in 22 states to force him
out of office, Guardian reports. The group’s chairman, Seriki Olorunwa,
said the prevailing health condition of the president had made it
impossible for him to govern the country. “We urge the Senate, House of
Representatives, state house of assemblies and parastatals to persuade
Mr. President to resign and hand over to an interim president in the
interest of Nigerians,” group said. Though the youths pledged not to
shed any blood, they however noted that they were prepared to fight than
to live as slaves. “We are speaking with one voice for the masses
because we want the progress of the people.”

All Progressives Congress (APC) had subjected Nigerians to humiliation
because of its self-serving activities. The youths complained that that
killing, kidnapping and robbery have become the order of the day in the
present-day Nigeria. Meanwhile, the APC has said President Muhammadu
Buhari is fast recovering from his illness contrary to allegations that
he is on life support. The national chairman of the party, John
Odigie-Oyegun, gave the assurance in Abuja on Friday, June 30, while
speaking with newsmen at the end of a meeting between the party`s
national working committee (NWC) and state governors elected on the
party’s platform. Oyegun, however noted that Buhari will only return to
the country after his doctors abroad certify him fit to do so, The News
