Dr. Abubakar Bukola Saraki, a former President of the Nigerian Senate, has told youths nursing the ambition to run in the 2023 presidential election to shelve the idea.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Saraki<\/a> said it was already too late for such persons to stand any chance of winning an election in this country, adding that the system is too rigid.<\/p>\n

The former Senate President said he would not even want any youth with a sound mind to contest for political offices at this point because they still possess some good values which would be corrupted before they win any election.<\/p>\n

\u201cYou have to give up some good values that you have to be able to be competitive,\u201d the former Kwara State Governor said at the weekend during an Independence lunch with diverse Nigerian youths in Abuja.<\/p>\n
