“I am a Nigerian youth and in same vein knows how hard it is in Nigeria and that is why I am using this opportunity to call on youths like me to vote for somebody that has the interest of the country at heart.
“Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu had done it while he was governor in Lagos state, the idea he used in Lagos State I strongly believe he will translate that to the whole Nigeria. currently we in over 28 states of the country and we are still making efforts to ensure we cover the remaining seven states.
“The idea is to propagate support for our National Leader Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, we believe he has the capacity and leadership wherewithal, we believe he is the one that can take Nigeria to a greater level in the ruling party which the sitting President Muhammadu Buhari heads.
“ So we believe the next person to take on the reins of power should be Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu because he has the human resources and people to work with in taking Nigeria to a greater level.”

Elder Ndoma Odeh Coordinator Emilokan BAT Ambassador 2023, Cross Rivers State in his remarks however, described all social media giants mouthing the Obidient slogan as mere echoes of time that might end up fruitless.
“For some who are on social media taking a different turf, from my point of view, I believe they are doing mere echoes, whether Obidient or not, what we are saying is that we have one man we know has the capacity and that is Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu.
“We’ve tested him and we have seen his capacity and are sure he will take us from where we are to a greater level, that is what we want people to know don’t waste votes however,you are entitled to your choice but we know that for you to enjoy why not just join us as we are going higher.

Madam Ojubolamo Remi the State Women Leader BAT Ambassador Ekiti State who took part in the football match as one of the Emilokan BAT Ambassador football team against Anularigba team in a novelty match, noted the nostalgic feeling that trail the match for owing to the fact that she remain a footballer ever since her Secondary school days.
According to youths should rally round Asiwaju because in him lies the solution to the economic woes Nigeria is experiencing at the moment.
The youths will fare better with Asiwaju as President. As a youth I will say Asiwaju is capable and his time will be favourable to the youths, because a lot of our youths with B.Sc or Masters qualifications are roaming the streets riding the bicycle with no gainful employment, this saddens one’s heart,
“ I am convinced this will be critically addressed, We are sure that God will direct Asiwaju to do better to salvage the situation when he gets in 2023.”
