The president never made a blanket statement against Nigerian youths. He referred to a section of youths who have refused to go to school and addressed certain expectations that drives people to say this administration has done nothing.

If you refused to go to school and believe the government should do everything for you including feeding your two wives and eleven children, the president was referring to you.
If you are one of those youths who block roads and collect money from motorist when there is a problem on the expressway and motorist want to use your village road, PMB was referring to you.
If you are one of those who insist that you and your goons must be settled in the name of community youths, before a contractor starts infrastructure projects in your village, the president is referring to you.
If you are a thug, like those who went to the national assembly to collect the mace yesterday and those who collect money to do dirty work for politicians or #500 to vote during elections, the president is referring to you.
You can twist the president comments anyhow you like, but facts are sacred and truth sacrosanct. The president spoke about a troublesome section of Nigerian youths because every investor who has come here to build factory or pipeline or telecom mast etc encounter them all over the country.
