Nobody bewitched us. We voted in the comfort of our bedroom. Now tell me, can the INEC guarantee that?

The problem with Nigeria youth is a painful one. I am short of words. How can able-bodied youth converge just to show their support for a person they only knew on TV whereas they can't do same for a course that will affect their lives? If you announce a convergence of youths to protest policies of government, you will seldom find them but if it's for entertainment they will March on. This is indeed the proverbial quote of "suffering and smiling " until the youths take their destiny in their hands, Nigeria will never change. Enough is enough!

solid3:
OP, did you put into consideration the 100 vote per person on wechat? Did you also put into consideration the vote godfathers who bank rolled the SMS votes?

There's one fool on twitter, I think @Auracool or something, he has pledged to fund voting with N100k?

Pls analyse 'proproly' before you postulate.

Tenk.

ZombieTERROR:
Op Nigerian youths are doomed
Nigeria has no future

Emekamex:
The Nigerian people, especially the youths are still asleep; change will only begin when we become uncomfortable with mediocrity; right now, we tend to adapt to any bulls(h)it thrown at us.

David25:
You talk a good game..

A good and flawless accountability for such an enormous amount of fund will forever be a challenge amist the Nigerian youth. Mismanagement will set in and we'd be right back were we started.

NNVanguard:


If 6 Million youths in Nigeria can pay N30 to vote for BBNAIJA, let's check out this mathematics. This is conservative as we know that about 10m youths voted in this competition. The unaccounted 4m accommodates those who weren't charged with the Wechat app, that allowed voters vote for free.

Going with the index of INEC, they said 78% of Nigerian Voters are youths, which we estimate to 98 Million youths. We also estimate to have about 30 million youth voters with valid voters card that can vote out of the total numbers of qualified voters.

If 50million Nigeria youths come together, pick a candidate amongst themselves, task everyone to contribute N30 every week for two months, we shall record an inflow of cash that will amount to #1.5bn for a week, then add the months to the amount, you will record for just two months, #12bn which can be managed very well with all due accountability and transparency for campaign and elections issues.

Then again, the 30 million youths can in turn cast their votes for their candidate, which of course is someone who is representing their interest, they also have the power and Influence that can spread to their parents, which will attract more votes for them.

With such votes cast, the youths can take power away from the old men and political gladiators, whose interest is against the desires of the common Nigerian.

But we the youths have rather choosen to spend our money and time on BBNAIJA and ZEE-WORLD. Though everyone have a right to enjoy what makes him happy, yet we need to think of the present and future pains, cries and anguish of Nigeria.

At times, we the Youths are the architect of our predicaments, as we have decided to be spectators in the political arena while our Aged fathers remain the gladiators. We need to stop blaming the old men who use and dump us because we have refused to take the bulls by the horns. Our apathy, insensitivity, fear and cowardice to politics have done us more harm than good.

Let's come on board together in the New Nigeria Vanguard and build together a Nigeria that now and posterity will be proud of.
