Candidates "dressing in youthful clothes" do not know the problem of Nigeria - Imumolen
The Accord's presidential candidate, Professor Christopher Imumolen, says his youthful status makes him eminently qualified to address the many and varied issues facing Nigeria's youthful population.
Imumolen, who at 39 is the youngest of 18 candidates vying for the seat of President of Nigeria in next February's presidential election, says no one can know better the psychology and unique idiosyncrasies of youth than a youth.
He said he was not amused by attempts by some of his fellow presidential candidates to give the impression that they are young people when in fact they are not, saying that it would be a colossal mistake on the part of young people themselves to be led to endorse such candidates.
