Yoruba Youths Council Pass Vote of Confidence On Matawalle

Tthe Yoruba Youth Council Worldwide has described Minister of State for Defence, Bello Matawalle as President Bola Tinubu’s most reliable political ally from Northern Nigeria today.
In a related development in the South-west, the Yoruba Youth Council (YYC) has warned against alleged desperate attempts by some unscrupulous and corrupt politicians to undermine Nigeria’s present democratic dispensation for selfish ends.
The group said this while condemning what it called a current gang-up against Tinubu by some Northern elements.

It, however, said Matawalle has proven himself beyond doubt as a reliable ally to Tinubu, stressing that with some politicians already scheming ahead of 2027 general elections, Matawalle was well positioned to protect the president’s interest.

In a statement signed by the National President of the group, Mazi Okwu Nnabuike, the group urged the President not to be deceived by some political enemies who were desperately working to scuttle the relationship between him and the Minister.

Okwu said, “these desperate politicians tend to cause disaffection between the President and the Minister of state for Defence, having realised that he would be very strategic to the president’s interest in the North ahead of the 2027 general election.

“They are the same people creating an atmosphere of disunity and insecurity in the North, all in a bid to discredit Mr President and make the security architecture look weak.

“They are determined to ensure that Mr President’s allies are displaced ahead of the election, which would in turn weaken his political base.”

The Ohanaeze group further stated that all the plans of the said detractors was to ensure that “the gains made by the current administration in the areas of security and welfare of the masses are scuttled.

“We, however, urge the President not to let them have their way, but to continue reposing his confidence on the Minister of state, Defence whose capacity and commitment towards the progress and success of the government are guaranteed.

“He will no doubt be a good rallying point ahead of the 2027 election” the Igbo Youths stated
