We may be few hours late with this news, but we are excited to tell you that the #NotTooYoungToRun bill got a Presidential Assent today in Abuja. In photo is President Buhari flanked by young civil society group members who have been at the fore front of this campaign. Below is the most inspiring speech, from the signing of that bill by Buhari. 1. First, I would like to welcome you all to the State House. Today is a significant day for all of us in Nigeria, and most especially our young people – and the role they play in our democracy, politics and national life.

The People’s Democratic Party, PDP has described the the anti-corruption Champion conferred on President Muhammadu Buhari at the African Union Summit as laughable, derisory and African joke of the year. This condemnation was contained in a statement by the National publicity secretary of the party, Kola Ologbondiyan. The PDP said it was embarrassing that the Presidency, in its desperation to launder its irredeemably dented image, would resort to exporting its deceptive proclivities to the international arena. Ologbondiyan said African Union were not well briefed of the happenings in Nigeria, hence, the honour.
