“The National Youth Alliance is not a pro-government organization, it is not an anti-government organization, it is just a neutral organization, a group of like-minds, young people that came together from different political parties, from the PDP, APC, Labour Party, APGA, NNPP, PRP, in order to build a new Nigeria for all”.
Abbas said they are law-abiding citizens, that is out to speak to the minds of Nigerians, particularly the younger generation and women.

“ I think it is high time for us as young people that truly believe in the cause of this country to come out and then salvage Nigeria, save Nigeria from our current state of mess”.
While questioning the office of the president, he said it was wrong for Nigeria as a country with over 250 million citizens to produce a president with less than nine million votes, adding that it was more of an appointment.
