Not too young to run! 26-year-old corp member to contest for chairman of a local government

26-year-old Muhammad Usman, from Hadejia in Jigawa state who is currently serving as a corp member in Kano state, recently released a campaign poster indicating his intention to run for the position of the chairman of his local government area, Hadejia.


The young man, who had his primary and secondary school education in Hadejia, before proceeding to Ecole Superieure Sainte Felicite in Benin Republic, where he got a degree in Human Resources, is one of the youngest Nigerians to contest for elections.

This is coming in the wake of the Not Too Young To Run Campaign; a campaign aimed at enabling citizens as young as 25 years to run for elective positions in the country. Good luck to him.
