  "account": "The African Democratic Congress Presidential Campaign Council (ADC-PCC) has urged Nigerian youths to reject the All Progressives Congress (APC) and President Bola Tinubu in the upcoming January 16 presidential election. The ADC-PCC argues that the ruling party has failed the nation’s young people after years in power, leaving millions struggling with unemployment, poverty, and rising living costs. The council maintains that Nigerian youths, who make up a significant portion of the country’s population, deserve practical solutions to their challenges and a clear vision for their future. ADC-PCC Director of Media and Publicity, Kola Ologbondiyan, warned that voting for Tinubu for a second term would be a grave political mistake for young Nigerians who have endured difficult economic circumstances under the APC administration. Ologbondiyan pointed out that many young graduates are forced to engage in petty trading, sales of recharge cards, and point-of-sale (POS) businesses to survive. He criticized the government's so-called discount on petrol prices, alleging that the actual pump price remains above N1,400 per litre. Ologbondiyan urged the youths to support a candidate who has proposed practical measures to make life more affordable for Nigerians, specifically Atiku Abubakar and his running mate, Rotimi Amaechi.",
