APC youths seek 50 per cent reduction in form fees

The Zonal Youth Leader (North-West) of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Abdulhamid Umar Mohammed, has written to the national chairman of the party, Senator Abdullahi Adamu, seeking 50 per cent reduction in fees for forms for youth.

In a letter addressed to the chairman and copied to the Zonal Vice Chairman (North-West) and Office of National Youth Leader of the party, the leader said the call became necessary considering youth participation in politics and the affairs of the country.

He said other reasons were that the youth, across the length and breadth of the country, who form more than 50% of the voting population, membership of the party and the general population, are facing exclusion from the governance process due to lack of finances.
