Even if he does not win the 2023 elections, Omoyele Sowore says he is happy he has inspired the youths and younger generation to believe they deserve a better Nigeria.
On Thursday night, OduNews.com monitored Sowore’s interview on News Central’s Politics HQ.
The youth has woken up and will not settle for less than they deserve from government, said Sowore, who described himself both as a pessimist and an optimist.
Sowore said, “What is more important is my interest in making this country work. Politics should be a service. My kind of optimism is different. I expect the worst and hope for the best. I’m an optimist for the future. Even if we don’t get to be in charge directly, new generation would emerge that would not accept this kind of condition of existence and that we would have inspired them.
“Whatever little contribution we can give or any sacrifice we can make now that will even make people in power think twice sometimes when they make decisions or policies are not bad for me. The fact that we are seeing younger generation of persons who are getting radicalised as well and promising that this system will catch hell one day if it continues this way is for me an optimistic engagement.”
