Abdulkarim, who is also the chairman, Board of Trustees of the group, warned against money politics, saying that money should not be used as yardstick for selecting flag bearers or leaders.

He also urged politicians to guide against godfatherism.

“I also want to admonish our fellow youths not to allow themselves to be used for political thuggery before, during and after elections,” he advised.

Different speakers at the event also enjoined youths to use their ingenuity, vibrancy, vigour and youthful energy to initiate innovations that would engender a new dawn for the country.

They urged youths in the country to resist any attempt by politicians to divide their ranks along tribal and religious lines through religious exploitation and crude political maneuver of tribal sentiments.

The delegates and representatives from different walks of life and geopolitical zones across the country graced the occasion.
