30% Youth(18 To 35 Age Bracket) Representation In Government by mooremadu(m): 3:47am On Mar 17, 2015
!!!!!30%youth representation in government!!!!!!!!
Nigeria youths awake, enough of the neglects, let's fight for our rights because it's well over time for advocacy. 30%youths representation in government is all we ask for. The world is fast trending in youthful syndrome. Most advanced nations today had youth leaders as far back as 1955 as my knowledge can tell. For instance in Australia, Malcolm Fraser and Paul Keating were elected prime Ministers at a tender age of 25years in 1955 and 1969 respectively, Wyatt Roy in 2010 was 20years when he was elected PM as well. In Canada Duesseautt was just 19 years in 2010 at the time of his election as a PM. Most recently in 2014, Simon Harris was 24 and was elected.. Other countries like new Zealand (Todd Barclay) United Kingdom, United States etc. are no exception in involvement of youths in the affairs of her country.
However youths are fully involved in the leadership of the country and the end result is progress, growth and innovations. Reverse is the case in Nigeria were our grandfathers and great grandfather who are within the age bracket of 65years - 80years still contest for political positions (governor senator etc) and also fight themselves as Senators when they are supposed to be home watching and allow the youths (children) handle the affairs of this nation.
Nigerian Youths, it is time to take the affairs of this nation into our own hands, having PVCs and electing them into office and suffer yet again another 4years Is not enough.
It's time for us to make demands of our rightful 30% representation in government. The trend is on, join us on our twitter page to demand our 30% right in government. Tell a friend about this, enlighten a neighbor on this, keep it moving like a chain reaction. Enough is enough, let's do this so that from the 29th of May and beyond a new government will be birthed in most if not all states and indeed the president be it GEJ or GMB or any other will have this 30% youthful right as a very strong agenda and given to us. in most advanced nations hardly will you see a senator of 50years not to talk of 70 80 as in the case of Nigeria
The advocacy is now join us on twitter #30youthrepingovt and like our facebook page 30%youthrepresentationingovt to reach out to all nooks and crannies of this country.... Don't be deceived the age here is 18 to 35. Before someone comes and tell us that 40 to 45 don't be left out. Youths be wise!!!

We have not been able to show that we can lead ourselves comfortably let alone get involved in matters that will lead others. A vast majority still be cloud their reasoning with sentiments, wrapped up in ethnic, religious and political hate. Although, we still have many who have shown good exceptional leadership and goal attainment features. We just need to think beyond now, throw away or reduce to the barest minimum. God bless n help us
