In his resignation statement, Muhammad criticized the government’s neglect of youth issues and described the situation within the Parliament as a betrayal of young people’s aspirations. He called attention to a culture of silence within governance and emphasized that leadership should confront uncomfortable truths rather than appease political convenience.

Muhammad thanked his colleagues for their resilience and expressed gratitude for their efforts despite “hostile conditions.” He previously encouraged youths to support the government and to engage in creating positive change, stating that their choices shape the future.

His decision to step down reflects a growing frustration among young leaders regarding the lack of genuine support for youth initiatives in governance.
