Press Release Buhari Vanguard warns President Jonathan to Stop Exploiting Unemployed Nigerian Youths September 23, 2014 We have been able to establish beyond reasonable doubt that President Goodluck Jonathan has resorted to taking advantage of the unemployment status of myriads of Nigerian youths. President Goodluck Jonathan is now using the plight of the Nigerian youths to carry through his re- election agenda in 2015 by forcing them against their will to attend his campaign rallies. On Saturday, the 20th of September 2014, President Goodluck Jonathan and the PDP held a campaign rally at the Tafawa Belewa Square TBS, Lagos Island, Lagos state where supposed PDP supporters gathered to endorse President Jonathan and show their support for the PDP in the South West. It was with great surprise and amazement that we learned that the campaign rally was executed with unsuspecting and unemployed Nigerians who were being raised for training under the Federal Task Force, a program they claim is being organized by SURE-P and FERMA to create work for unemployed Nigerian Youths. The youths under the training program were compelled to attend the PDP and President Jonathans campaign rally with the promise that they will be given jobs and that those who did not attend will not be given any job at the end of the training. Thousands of these youths were transported from their camps in Badagry area and Ojota, all in Lagos State Nigeria. Those who watched or attended the campaign rally can confirm that thousands of youths were seen putting on white top and black trousers while many others were seen putting on a black top on a black trousers. Those in white top are the recent recruits under the Federal Task force while those in black top were recruited under FERCSARA. We have proven that the said youth constituted over 60% of the attendees at the rally and that these youths were being tricked to attend the said rally. We consider this activity as a total mockery and disrespect to the myriad of unemployed Nigeria youths. You will also recall that a few months ago, hundreds of thousands of youths were assembled in different stadia in Nigeria under the NIS recruitment exercise that resulted to the death and incapacitation of many Nigerian youths. Today, no Nigerian youth has been engaged under the said recruitment exercise after the charade that caused the lives of many Nigerian youths. We condemn this attitude and we urge President Goodluck Jonathan and the PDP to stop now. We shall continue to monitor the activities of the PDP led government and defend the Nigerian youths from being exploited and compelled to supporting a political party and presidential candidate against their will.
