Senate President Bukola Saraki who is the running for the seat of the president in the 2019 election, says Nigerians should come out to vote for him because at this point in our history, we need a youthful president. Saraki who declared his intention to run for president two weeks ago, said this at a consultative meeting he had with PDP members in Edo state yesterday Wednesday September 12th.

“The country has never been so divided as it is today; we need to unite this country and in uniting the country, we must have a President that speaks for Nigerians. We must have a President with whom everybody will have a sense of belonging. We must have a President that you all feel is representing you. We must have a President and a government where Edo State has its key role on the table, where things are done with equity. It is time for us to unite and to do that, we must move away from electing a President based on sentiments. We have done it many times. It has not worked.”
