Over 700 youths on Monday staged peaceful demonstration to the Presidential Villa, protesting alleged plans by some State Governors to impose candidates during the National Convention of the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC scheduled for February 22, 2022.

The youths stormed the National Assembly Complex in Abuja in similar fashion.

Addressing journalists, the group under the aegis of Youth Development and Solidarity Forum said they will resist any move to hijack proceedings at the convention.

They warned delegates to resist the temptation of being induced by desperate politicians who want to create crisis in the party.

They called on the President of the Senate, Ahmad Lawan to caution federal lawmakers not to join the State Governors in their desperate plot to ruin the unity in the APC.

The protesters commended President Muhammadu bzuhari for rejecting the list of choice candidates brought before him by the State Governors for endorsement.

The group had earlier submitted similar letter to the Senior Special Assistant to the President on Media, Garba Shehu.
