Derin Ologbenla who is the OSUN east senatorial candidate of the Democratic People's Congress (DPC) in the forthcoming elections gave the charge in a chat with newsmen.
He urged youths to capitalise on their population ,and take their destinies into their hands by insisting on the candidate of their choice.
He also advised youths to de-emphasize money politics, adding that every voter must be determined that money cannot buy their conscience.
The Ife-born insurance broker who has since returned to Nigeria from the United States of America, to contribute his quota to the nation's development, said Nigeria should begin to play the type of politics being played in America, UK, and other civilised nations where accountability and probity are the order of the day.
While urging people to see Democratic People's Congress (DPC) as a better alternative to APC, SDP and PDP where public office holders have continued to defect at will, with no regards to those who voted then into power, Derin-Ologbenla urged youths to educate others that their votes are too important to be traded.
The young politician observed that poverty and illiteracy have been the weapons through which politicians have continued to punish the masses.
According to him, the bane of Nigeria's development was lack of accountability by the present leaders.
Prince Derin-Ologbenla said politicians should be held accountable for their lack of performance by being voted out of the office.
