A SERIOUS crack appeared in the North Friday, over the plans by the Arewa elders to produce a Northern Presidential candidate to challenge President Goodluck Jonathan in the 2015 presidential contest, as the Northern Youths Forum (NYF) said that its members will only support any candidate for the leadership of the nation on the basis of merit irrespective of ethnic or religious background. www.ngrguardiannews.com/index.php/national-news/127606-arewa-youths-oppose-elders-over-2015 2 Likes |

I love this! Enough of this men trying to bend the youths to do their will. A good portion of those who are complaining now have been in power before and their gross misconduct has brought the north and the nation@large to the present condition. Check out those that would be endorsed by the NEF and ACF are failures even in their careers, some have been public office holders and have done poorly. I think those endorsed bribe their way to get the endorsement. Enough of the tribalism. 1 Like |

If half of northern youths can reason like this, then Nigeria will soon be a country of everybody's dream where tribalism, Nepotism and regional mistrust will be over. But the unfortunate part is that a large proportion of the uneducated northern youth and some educated atalakawas are sentimentally disposed to these greedy elders' ideology. 2 Likes |

What these youth are saying is the last truth but the problem topic like this suppost to be a national issue let it be by nigerians, all these divisions was part of the problem the country fall in, if we dont want a leader let it be because he cant make changes not because he is not from my region, religion of ethnicity. Why arewa consultative forum? Why arewa youth forum? If nigerian youth will decide to say no to you is totally no because the youth believe in change and that is the type of change we need. I beleive everybody suffers setback from these type of understanding. Let us speak for our dear nation 9ja formulated as one nation bound in freedom peace and unity. Let us think wisely. |

If the youths of this country can start thinking in this manner them we would surely have the needed sweeping change/revolution we desire in this country. I keep saying the older generation failed this country and the youths are towing in line. part of what has kept up in bondage as a people unable to attain our greatness as a nation is religion and tribalism/ethnicity. Poverty and suffering as a result of bad governance does not ask of an individual or a peoples tribe or religion. Death and carnage on our roads arising from the poor state of the roads due to corruption does not ask of tribe or religion. Bombs and bullets the new phenomenon we are now contending with as a result of the gradual collapse of the nigerian society do not demand tribe or religion when they unleash mayhem. Its time for us to focus our minds on productive things like making our country as place we would be prove of.. For those that advocate a split we should look up to countries like united states as a case study of a multi ethnic nation with patriotic citizens and not rather liken the population of our various regions to countries like togo to justify splittin this country. I tell u a large population has alot of advantages compared to small numbers. He we split up we would have internal strife to deal with. Nigerian youths we are educated to an extent but have not allowed our education to fully take control of our reasoning faculties. Our country can work we just have to make it work by fostering our progressive ideas over the very few that have continued to suppress this great nation because of thier selfish interests. May our children not spite up the way we spite this shameless elders leading up today because we failed to do the right thing. Educate the uneducated around you its time to use the social media to effect changes and not to keep blabbin trash. 1 Like |

Bello Gambo, thanks for your civilized, matured and patriotic act, you have to work harder with the president of the northern youth forum to liberate and salvalge your posterities there in the north, from the hands of the so called nothern elders forum, that are only interested in the immediate need of themselves and their children. Go on in supporting the truth, for if it didnt pay you nw, it will pay you later, any time you vow for any position , in country people will usher you in. Ok. Cheers.
