The long waited ministerial lists was finally released after four months hoping to see new names. But to my own surprise the names that was there are not people we don't know. We don't even have a young person at all in the cabinet. The people there have been ruling us before are still intact. Almost all of them holds of certain post in this nation before. Don't you think this people shouting change are just using us? The only thing they will come out again to tell us is that " WE ARE THE LEADERS OF TOMORROW". Please when is tomorrow coming with this attitude of our leaders that refuse to step down? Hope the youths are not the Mugus of tomorrow?

Because it is a Gerontocratic government

what is your definition of a youth?

simtosul:

Your voice will be heard through what you post on Facebook or Nairaland

1. Most youths are busy chasing girls to Fvck & whatever happens in our country is none of their business unless money is to be shared.

2. Some Youths died during the Elections & their dreams died with them as well.

3. Most are now into Music 'cause music industry now pays so much and they care less about our political setting, their own na for u to pay dem money for shows.

4. the remaining ones are afraid.

RESULT: THOSE OLD CARGOES OVER THERE WONT STOP LEADING UNTIL WE DO SOMETHING.

Youth is the time of life when one is young, is an experience that may shape an individual's level of dependency, which can be marked in various ways according to different cultural perspectives.

Youths...na mouth we get, no action. Jokes apart, we're not aptly poised to be involved on that level of politics. When they say the beautiful ones are not yet born, isn't it because the ugly ones are not yet dead? The political methuselahs want to hold on to positions and appointments forever and the youths that should replace them (I'm referring to age group 25-35 ish), are too distracted by the vicissitudes of life to be actively involved in politics. Who then will they hand over to? Who will wrest the power off them? They are the alphas and have eliminated the competition by fuccking the system up, making the youths the political betas. There will be a beta uprising. No one knows when or how, but the zeitgeist is aroused.

*Drops mic*

Simply cos we re operating GERENTOCRACY

Fashola and Amaechi are old men?

@op; During d electioneering campaign, did buhari make any promise to include ur name or d name of youths in d ministerial list? U beta go and face ur studies, u jambite! Ur opinion lacks sanctified common sense. Its not worthy of an audience even in dis 21st century. U beta divert ur aggression to d senator in ur constituency dat has been diverting development funds to his personal account. Nigeria needs serious repairs. Buhari has appointed pple he trust enough to work with him. Lets watch dem do their job. And if they fail or steal, we can begin to talk. I would rather prefer dis list simply bcoz, buhari is simply ok with dem. #shikena

Look at the APC, can you mention one major player, whose age is below 45. That's your answer. I saw ABIOLA's stupid daughter on ChannelsTV news track pretending she is relevant in the APC, by claiming the next list might contain names of youths and probably women. How is Oyinlola a youth, because it is obvious that the foolish osunite will be on that list, if it is ever released. Anyone who thinks that this government represents or cares about the future of youths, and females, is horribly mistaken.

Yes, they are close to the grave...

Seriously though;

Hopefully things will change for the better soon...

In the Govt of GEJ,please tell us the minister who was between age18-35

.All this shout of non inclusion of youth in d ministerial list,is simply unnecessary, all we need,are ministers that will deliver whether they are youth or not.There is no country in the world, where,ministers are mostly youth.It is a rarity even in America that is the most advance democracy in the world,to find people of between age 18-35,as ministers,i stand to be corrected.

Wailers said they are old, you can not argue with noise, their opinion is the Gospel,so they are old...

Audu Ogbeh is the only "yoot" in that list, even Kemi Adeosun is old.

Youth? The same youth that have sold their conscience for peanuts? The same youths that carry placards to protest in favor of corrupt politicians? The youth will always remain behind like the buttocks. Quote me anywhere

Mr Gbawe, so, all the youths who work in banks and financial institutions are all dead. So the children of the political class who have 1st class degrees and currently head IT firms and telecom corporations are all singing and acting, while partying with DAVIDO. So all the brothels and clubs now turn back old men who are youth drainers of our young girls. So the son of OBJ and that ridiculous Tinubu is afraid and scared of joining the political class.
Young man, you probably spend all your time watching TRACE TV, and doing YAHOO-YAHOO, that's why you don't know there are millions of people within the age bracket of 30-40 doing amazing things and are more qualified than the bunch of bloodsuckers and retirement home candidates on that hopeless list. I have read all your contributions to this platform, and not one piece could be considered as having any iota of intelligence. Those who claim you are intelligent are simply blind and FOOLISH.

am not directing my post to immediate past government, just as my indicate its ur opinion. The post is talking about the government in general both past ones nd the future to come cos I have discovered that is like youth doesn't have a say.

you are on point bro

The youth are not ready to lead besides some are opportuned to find themselves at the corridor of power but fumbled big time eg Dimeji Bankole, Farouk Lawan, FFK etc. You don't sit down at the comfort of your home while the elders are struggling for power & expect to be appointed, its either you join them or you are sideline, Garba Sheu & Adeshina contributed in one way or the other during PMB's campaign that's why they are on board. Whenever the youth are ready, they will grab power by force by fire from the elders & i don't see that happening soon.

Young man, you probab

Mr know it all, u were meant to continue my list not to contradict it. I made my points & you should make yours.

the fact that someone graduated with a first class doesnt mean he must be a politician, d fact dt a politicians son or daughter z a first class graduate of a prestigous univ doesnt mean he/she must be a politician or wants to b a politician politicians children have dia own dreams, Chief Anthony Enahoro was a nigerian politician yet none of his children r politicians today, because why? dey r pursuing their own dreams so, watch what u say Old Man.

2. not everyone wants to be a politician whether u work in fcmb or first bank etc, some persons dont just value d idea dey just want to live dia lives like every ordinary citizen of our country, so old man think before u type.

3. we all have phobias and some persons aint really into politics dey mind dia business , not everyone wants to b a politician coupled with d kidnappin, killings etc dey r just afraid of politics and its resultant effects on dia families. so old man, if u r ready, u go over dia and stop contradicting me. I say it as it z not as you want it. thanks.

Mr I- NO- GET- BRAIN, you claimed all the youths are now drug dealers, musicians, woman chasers, and afraid of their own shadows, and I pointed out the folly in your thinking. Now you have continued in your lunacy. Your messiah President was head of state in his 40's, but now he is telling us that youth is no more right. Wake up and demand your future, instead of waiting for NAIRALAND 100 naira commission from your sponsors
