The Youth Challenge by JKisOK(m): 8:29am On Oct 09, 2015
JUST SAW THIS POSTING ON MY FACEBOOK ACCOUNT. IT GIVES FOOD FOR THOUGHT:

Arise O' Sleeping Youth of Nigeria!!!
Awolowo was (37), Akintola (36), Ahmadu Bello
(36), Effiong (36), Balewa (34) and Okotie-Eboh
(27), Enahoro (27) led the struggle for
independence after the death of Macaulay. Only
Zik was 42 at the time.
In 1966, the first coup was led by: Kaduna
Nzeogwu (29) and countered by Murtala
Mohammed (28), Theophilus Danjuma (28),
Babangida (25), Nanven Garba (23), Sani
Abacha (23), Shehu Musa Yaradua (23), and
brought into power Gowon (32), Ojukwu (33),
Obasanjo (29), Buhari (24). Under 30s were
also not in short supply with appointments, we
have examples of MT Mbu who became foreign
affairs minister at 23 and Pat Utomi who
became a presidential adviser at 27 and so on
and so forth.
NOW:
Why is it that this age bracket is today still
sleeping in 3 seater chairs in their parents’
homes?
Why is it that this age bracket is today still
collecting pocket money from their parents?
Why is it that this age bracket is today still
writing JAMB?
Why is it that this age bracket is today still
sagging their trousers?

I wont comment much...


In those days, the federal govt spends more on education.
How many % is been allocated for education this days?
The Institution exams then wasn't as tedious as now.
Then, no tribe is inferior, now we are all tribalistic.
Then, stealing is corruption but now, corruption is viral.

The youth aint sleeping, we are not just given the chance again!
Ask Ben Murray Bruce, he is gonna tell you more.
