Former VP Atiku Reacted To Buhari's Nigeria Youth Are Lazy & Uneducated Statement

Former vice president Atiku Abubakar has  reacted to President Muhammad Buhari statement via his Twitter handle.

President Muhammadu Buhari yesterday said many Nigerian youths are uneducated, not ready to work and dependent on revenue from oil to survive. He said the youths, who make up half of Nigeria population, were waiting to get social amenities free without doing anything.

The President spoke during a panel discussion at the Commonwealth Business Forum in Westminster, London.

According to Abubakar Atiku, I will never refer to Nigeria's youth as people who sit and do nothing. They are hardworking. I should know, I have thousands of youths working for me all over the country who have been the backbone to our success.

Atiku further stated that I've always said oil is not Nigeria's greatest asset. Our greatest asset is our youth who created Nollywood out of nothing and an entertainment industry that is second to none in Africa.

Our youth are charting new frontiers; creating a huge tech industry on their own! Their entrepreneurial spirit, work ethic, and creative abilities are things of pride and should be applauded, encouraged and nurtured.
