Hehehehehehe GEJ thinks he is young? He belongs to those aging people that have been causing us problem in this country. If actually GEJ is young as he wants us to believe, that means he is a complete failure for disappointing the young people of this country.

dont be silly.... the man said "us" .... he even included himself so stop quoting him out of context.

He knows the Truth, they all do. For the first time in forever, he said it in public that he believes in we youth. Now so mr. President, this is what we youths are asking from you... Sweep out the old, starting from your advicer and put young chap there one whose thinking is out of this world, outside the box and see the result u get.

Re-read the speech and tell us how D-banj relate to the agricultural policy for the youth.

I am sure you are a juvenile, you talk like one. Una mate dey make am, how? When our education sector is in shambles? What the youth need most is quality education.

where did he 'blame' anything on any body there...he just stated an obvious fact...old people abuse back and forth...eg doyin okupe elrufai obasanjo etc

laBarca:
First they blamed APC
They later blamed Tinubu
They Blamed Amaechi
They Blamed Muhammadu Buhari
They blamed all past Heads and Presidents
They blamed opposition.
Now they are blaming Elderly People...
Tomorrow they will blame the Children and unborn

“So, we believe that the future of this country is in the hands of young people. The young Nigerians will surely take us to where we want to be.

“One day, you will take us to the moon. I believe in the young, creative and talented people. Surely, we will create enabling environment for you because you stand for the future of this country and you will make this country great.”

can you explain what you understood by the above statements?

searchcorp:
So in GEJ's mind the ony achievements the young should give their nation is in sports, movie and music. He said absolutely nothing about science, economics, information technology, new age journalism, witty inventions in technology, entrepreneurial spirit and drive and others.

Im ashamed of my president.

GEJ should keep quiet and stop showing how clueless he is. Weren't they all youths before they became greedy old politicians?

The youths have learned the ropes. Put a 20-year-old in Aso rock and he will show you how 'smart' the Nigerian youths are.

The problem is not with the older generation, we are inherently corrupt!

Can't you read the points before you start to abuse? He sees what u don't c n instead of reason u r talking rubbish.
The man said the young bring glory but the old bring sorrows n u can c with the examples he gives.
What will Buhari bring or Obasanjo who disobeyed court orders.
Think next time before u comment .

...But see politics that old people like us are
involved in, we continue to quarrel and abuse
ourselves everyday and create problems for
innocent Nigerians .
Imagine, He knew he is a problem for Nigerians and yet he is campaigning for another FOUR YEARS to create problems for Innocent Nigerians

Jonathan as forgotten that in the next 5-10years he will be as old as the people he is insulting now. I wonder when he will stop blaming people for his failures. This time it is old people.
did he exempt himself from the statement? no,he said "most of us adult" learn how to ready and comprehend.

Re: Young People Bring Glory To Nigeria But Old People Cause Problems - Jonathan by D9ty7(m): 2:54pm On Dec 17, 2014
Is anything wrong with the speech? No, I don't think so.
He is praising the youths for their contribution towards the development of the country. And when he said the 'old' he didn't exempt himself. He agreed that he is one of the people creating problems for this country as well as other old people that I know but won't mention.
