The Minister of Transportation, Rotimi Amaechi, on Monday called on Nigerian youths to vote President Muhammadu Buhari in for a second term to ensure a better future for them.

Amaechi, who was a guest at an event in Lagos, told the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) that the future of the youth was at stake if they failed to support the incumbent administration.

He warned that voting for candidates who had no good intention for the growing population of young Nigerians would be tantamount to a plunge into a bleak future.

“I only have a simple but candid advice to Nigerian youths and that is: come 2018 elections, they should vote for Buhari because their future is at stake.

“I became Speaker of the Rivers State House of Assembly at the age of 34, I became the governor at the age of 42 and I became a minister of the Federal Republic at 50.

“We cannot afford to truncate our future for a piece of meat; we should be watchful because those people who stole our money and commonwealth are regrouping to come back to perpetrate their act.

“These people want to continue from where they were stopped from looting the treasury, when oil was sold at between 110 and 120 U.S. dollars,’’ he said.

The minister said that some of those parading themselves as political aspirants had “corruption cases hanging on their necks’’, adding that the youths must be wary of such candidates.


“If those that have stolen our money are yet to be jailed, it is because there is a process we have to follow and that is the rule of law; most of them have cases in court.

“The court will deliver judgment on them, as we cannot be the judge and prosecutor in the cases. The important thing is that they are being prosecuted.

“We are building a legacy for the youth and that is what we want to continue, I have gone through elections as a young citizen and I know what this means to the youth.

“The economy is growing steadily and by the end of the year, we would have achieved a two-per-cent growth and by next year, we hope to arrive at six per cent,” he said.

The future of the Nigerian youths is at stake under the current government instead.


So Mr minister, just shut the f up

Mumu talk, tell me just a single technocrat in this government, any, all are politicians. Who in his clear mind will vote for Buhari if not out of sentiment?
Is he mentally OK to lead the country? Even with all the call for his resignation out of health issues the party still deem it fit to present him again. This country is something else.
some paid agent are on here trolling every post just to justify the peanut been paid to them in the name of salary every month when they could earn more than that in a working society.

It's obvious Buhari hasn't performed as expected but Atiku is never an option. It's until we make a U-turn from these political wolves that we're ready to rescue the country.

Of cause they've got nothing to persuade for\with hence they resorted to threats and blackmail. What a sinking ship with useless and helpless occupants

This man should shut up

When will Amechi grow up?

Maybe he has forgotten his own court case, as if he's not part of the pdp nonsense. A wise human being with sense of reasoning will/can not make the mistake of voting a man that doesn't have four sight like buari the man is a mistake that need to be corrected come 2019 election.

That is a dodgy politician talking.

Here is what will happen if Nigerians FAIL to re-elect Buhari:

1. Herdsmen attacks will be effectively addressed.

2. Nepotism will cease.

3. Nigeria will be reunited.

4. Equal opportunity and development across the entire country.

5. Likes of Babachir, Maina, Yusuf will be brought to book.

6. EFCC will cease to compete for media space and be professional.

7. Our military will be better equipped to fight insurgency.

8. Government will be more open and accountable instead of the lies currently being dished out to Nigerians.

9. The life of Nigerians will matter and human life will be sacred.

10. Nigeria will be restructured and repositioned for greatness and life without oil.

11. Our electoral laws will be strengthened so that Nigerians can freely choose their leaders.

12. Subsidy regime will be open and not be shrouded in secrecy.


These are things APC and Amaechi don't want Nigerians to know.

Which party made you speaker and Governor at that age.where u not a member of the party for that 16years ?. What can we say of APC now?.
