Nollywood actor and politician Yul Edochie says Nigerian youths do not believe in themselves as they limit their potentials.

Edochie, in a tweet said “tell the average Nigerian youth you want to run for Senate, governor and president, he will laugh and tell you to go start from House of Assembly.

“That’s our major problem. We don’t even believe in ourselves. No this, there is no impossibilities in life. What you focus on grows.

“No impossibilities in life. Together we can. Happy New Month.”
