President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has promised Nigerian youths prosperity and a better future if he wins a second term, urging them to support his administration ahead of the 2027 general election.
Tinubu made the pledge on Saturday, October 24, 2026, at the All Progressives Congress (APC) presidential campaign flag-off rally in Kaduna State.
Addressing supporters, he described his second-term bid as a promise of prosperity, continuity and progress, and expressed confidence in his administration’s plans for the country.
“To you, the children of our country, it’s a promise of second term prosperity,” Tinubu said.
He thanked young Nigerians for their support and said his administration would work to create a better future for them.
“Our youth population, thank you. We promise you a better tomorrow,” he added.
Tinubu also urged eligible voters to ensure they had their Permanent Voter Cards (PVCs) and participate in the electoral process. He called on Nigerians to support APC candidates at all levels, including in the presidential, governorship, National Assembly and state House of Assembly elections.
His remarks come amid concerns about economic hardship, food prices, employment opportunities and the future facing young Nigerians. Voters will have an opportunity in 2027 to assess the candidates’ records, policies and promises.
Editorial notes: The original headline’s claim that youths “will not regret it” is not supported by the article, so I replaced it. Please verify the rally’s date and description, and check the quotations against a recording or transcript. The final paragraph would also benefit from sourced context, such as current data on prices or youth employment.
