Senator Babafemi Ojudu, the Special Adviser to the President on Political Matters, has said the northern youths, who gave the October 1 quit notice to Igbo resident in the region were paid by some elite.
Ojudu said this in Abuja at the weekend at a meeting with regional youth leaders, organised by the Office of the Special Assistant to the President on Youth and Student Affairs.
Ojudu, who represented Acting President Yemi Osinbajo, said: “Only God knows how much some elites, who hid behind the curtains, paid those who made that declaration in Kaduna.”
“It will be worst for us if we allow some selfish people to push us to unnecessary war. Nigeria holds a lot of promises for all of us. I know and we all know that a lot of you have been excluded from the good things of this country and of course we can trace that to poor and bad governance over the years".
Ojudu enjoined the youth to voice out against hate speeches, saying no nation could develop under an atmosphere of social discontent.
