The Youth Party on Saturday held what delegates described as a historic National Convention in Abuja, electing new national officers, ratifying congresses across 26 states, and outlining an ambitious roadmap ahead of the 2027 general elections.

The convention, held at the Wetland Hotel, brought together delegates from across the federation in what party leaders described as a defining moment for the fast-growing political movement.

A major highlight of the gathering was the formal ratification of ward, local government, and state congresses conducted in 26 states, a development seen as evidence of the party’s expanding grassroots structure nationwide.
