Why Every Youth Must Join In The Protest On Feb. 6 by StateReportersng(m): 8:10pm On Feb 03, 2017
Silence over this CHANGE and the existing political order is a conscious submission to Gerontocracy and Totalitarianism….Enough is enough

We cannot continue observing. For over 40years, the Bamanga Tukurs, the Buharis, the Obasanjos, the David Marks, the Tinubus, the Sarakis to mention a few have preoccupied our political system with no achievements in tandem with the wasted years except largesse buildings and fat offshore accounts. We want new surnames. What have the youths benefitted? They allow our educational system to deteriorate to a stinking mess; they themselves have no confidence in our hospitals.

They are jittery to travel on the very roads of the country they govern. They have hope in the loot of our treasury, their confidence fuels from their fat bank accounts. They send their children abroad for QUALITY education while we wander hopelessly at the mercy of a messy education system here in Nigeria. Whenever they are sick, our treasury is emptied to ferry them abroad while the common man lacks the resources to get Paracetamol from the nearest local pharmacy talk more of affording the substandard medical care obtainable here…..Enough is Enough

How many youths have they groomed to take after them? they continue calling us leaders of tomorrow. Which tomorrow? When will it ever come? And if we keep quiet and our nation is decimated, where shall we govern and flourish our talents when that tomorrow ever comes?

They are quick at coming up with youth empowerment…who are they empowering? With what? They share OKADA to the youths invariably killing their destinies and confining them to OKADA riders to prevent them from ever learning or disturbing to retake power. They prefer us to always be at their mercy. They want us to be pliable tools come next election.

We talk of unemployment, no vacancies. It is a big lie from the pit of hell, they never wanted us to know. I got in touch with a Senator’s daughter who was studying medicine in Birmingham. Whenever she is on break, she works at the power ministry. The girl has not graduated but already have a nice federal job waiting for her while many Phd holders roam the street with files every day and night in search of anyhow jobs. We have been confined to 2nd class citizens. What of the recent employment in the CBN, NPF, Nigerian Air force etc? how many commoners were employed? we must rise from our slumber and retake our country from these cabals. We must rise to the occasion and seek an egalitarian society. The country must be returned to the people. It belongs to all of us. God blessed Nigeria with juicy resources that can go round if these greedy cabals are ousted.

The youths make up 70% of the electorates. Democracy is a game of number, we must show our strength. We must determine our destinies and better our country. We must cease to continue being at their mercy, we must discontinue the pettiness of selling our votes for a plate of portage…it is time to take our destinies into our own hands

Plato once said, he who fails to take part in the electoral process has waived his right to speak if the elected Government under performs.

We Must All Rise On The 6th Of February To Have Our Voices Heard

I got no time to waste, you seriously believe they're campaigning for a better Nigeria?
Everybody is fighting for his/her pocket, that's all. I saw the so called national youth council guy today with convoy and security escort in big expensive cars.
