In a follow-up to their recent engagement, youth advocate and political mobilizer Nasir Doka again visited former Kaduna State Governor, Mallam Nasir El-Rufai, at his Abuja residence today. The meeting, which is generating buzz in political circles, signals the strengthening of a strategic alliance rooted in mentorship, nation-building, and a shared belief in the power of young people to shape Nigeria’s political destiny.
The visit, sources say, is not unrelated to the quiet but significant political realignments currently unfolding across the country. With shifting alliances, emerging blocs, and the 2027 elections gradually taking shape, both El-Rufai and Doka are reportedly united in the view that Nigerian youths must not be left behind—or worse, left to be used again as tools for violence and manipulation.
Nasir Doka, a respected grassroots mobilizer from the North, described the visit as part of an ongoing mentorship journey, noting that Mallam El-Rufai’s wealth of experience and clarity of purpose have become a guiding light for young leaders like himself.
“Mallam El-Rufai represents the kind of leadership we hope to learn from—principled, strategic, and courageous. Our conversations are not just about politics, they are about purpose, direction, and how young people can rise above being used as political cannon fodder,” Doka stated after the meeting.
The discussions, insiders reveal, centered on the future of political engagement in Nigeria, with emphasis on mentoring young leaders, reorienting youth political consciousness, and providing platforms for intergenerational collaboration. El-Rufai was said to have stressed the need for emerging youth leaders to organize, educate themselves, and prepare to take charge of the nation’s future with wisdom and integrity.
As Nigeria prepares for inevitable political restructuring, the meeting underscores a broader agenda: to reposition young Nigerians as active participants in the nation’s democratic evolution. Observers believe that this deepening alliance between El-Rufai and Doka may serve as a model for political mentorship and a call to action for other influential leaders to invest in the youth—not as a slogan, but as a duty.
In a time of uncertainty and transformation, this Abuja encounter may go down as one of the defining moments in the long journey toward genuine youth inclusion and national renewal.
