The campaign of Nigerian presidential candidate Atiku Abubakar today launched the world’s first ‘emojified’ manifesto in a new effort to attract youth voters.
Drawn from the previously published Atiku Plan, the #AtikuPlanForYOUth brings to life the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) candidate’s promises to Nigeria’s 130 million under-30s.

In an increasingly noisy debate, the Atiku campaign said the aim was to cut through the rhetoric to help youth voters understand more about the issues that matter most to them.

The novel manifesto ‘emojifies’ 40 pledges from #TheAtikuPlan across the key areas of government, education, jobs, human capital, economy, business, and sport and culture.

Highlights include pledges that Atiku will:



Nigeria’s slowing economy and failing education system have driven youth unemployment to record highs – reaching 38% in the second quarter of 2018. Only 50% of children finish primary school with many of them unable to go to secondary school, resulting in seven million young people each year entering a struggling labour market with few if any relevant skills.

The #AtikuPlanForYOUth is aimed at Nigerians youths looking for major new investment in job creation, apprenticeships and vocational training.

Campaign spokesman Osita Chidoka said: “The #AtikuPlanForYOUth is our way of speaking directly to young people with a positive message of hope for their lives and careers. Our youth have been badly let down during four years of neglect by the Buhari government, which has left them without adequate preparation or opportunities in the modern economy.

“By condensing #TheAtikuPlan into a set of youth-focused promises, we’re cutting through the noise to tell young people clearly and simply why Atiku is the only bridge to the brighter future they deserve.”



The #AtikuPlanForYOUth was created and launched by @WeVoteAtiku – part of the official PDP election campaign. With Election Day on Saturday, February 16, the campaign is entering its final phase to rally voters behind its pro-business message.

Mr Chidoka continued: “Our young people are our most precious asset today, and our message to them is clear: Act now. Take your future into your hands. Come out and vote for Atiku on February 16th.”

One of the major reason many people are lobbying for Atiku, is not because He is any better.

It is because they are tired of this Lifeless APC regime

This is a man that mean business, and not the lifeless thing that has handed his flag to someone else.

I want Southerners to please, help me with this and why your leaders are failures....I was replying a PDP bot "Buharilooter" who has been spamming the whole forum

You've been typing rubbish for some days now. You're probably from SE/SS, I ask you, what development has the PDP brought to you at all? Your governors are scam, I can beat my chest and say none of your states can compare with Bornu, Katsina, Kano and Gombe in terms of infrastructure. And these are states that their allocations can't be compared with southern counterparts, to cap it, some states like Bayelsa that collect one of the highest allocations and low population are owing salaries. So what dirty restructuring are you talking about? Whatever restructuring Atiku is talking about is to give the southern state governors to loot the people more.

Take a look at Delta State, how about Abia? One of the most dirty states, you need to fix your states and kick the demons that rule your states and leave Buhari alone. The sad reality is, Buhari is going to win Insha'Allaah and my advice for you is to stay away from Snipper.

You mean cameronean youth voters

Ok

Atiku is a 21st century leader and not an illiterate cow-herder from Daura

Indeed Atiku means business.

Baba God, na which dey I go make FTC

The woman waving behind Atiku has an awkwardly large hand

I'm voting for continuity... I can't vote for Atiku. pls argue with ur fone

Atiku is a 21th century president

Buhari on the other hide belongs to the old school

Swagalicious man.

Atiku is modern like Apple Macbook, while Buhari is like an archaic mainframe computer.

Who the cap fits...

The winning team

Now that's a candidate with a thinking team. The other camp of the philistines are busy looking for what PDP did or did not do for 16 years
