President Buhari To Sign ‘not Too Young To Run’ Bill Today by evanso6226(f): 9:22am On May 31, 2018
President Muhammadu Buhari will finally sign the ‘Not Too Young to Run’ bill on Thursday, May 31, 2018.

The president had revealed during his Democracy Day address on Tuesday, May 29, that he would sign the bill soon.

“In a few days I will be joined by many promising young Nigerians to sign into law the ‘Not Too Young to Run’ Bill,” he said.

The president took to his official Twitter account (@MBuhari) early on Thursday to announce that he’ll be joined by a group of young Nigerians to sign the bill at the Presidential Villa.

He posted, “Today I look forward to welcoming to the State House another group of young Nigerians, as I sign into law the #NotTooYoungToRun Bill.”

The ‘Not Too Young To Run’ bill seeks to reduce the age limit for those seeking elective positions in the country.

The bill will alter Sections 65, 106, 131, and 177 of the 1999 Constitution (as amended), as it seeks to reduce the age of qualification for the office of the President from 40 to 35 years; Governor from 35 to 30 years; Senate from 35 to 30 years; House of Reps from 30 to 25 years; and the House of Assembly from 30 to 25 years.

This will surely energize Nigeria's political space. When a youth finally becomes President, this day will be remembered.

More of this from Buhari. Buhari 2019; Igbo Presidency 2023!

I am sure you clods don't even know the meaning of this bill... But you run to the internet to post rubbish just to get likes.

Dunces like these are the reason I say the internet should be regulated in Nigeria....

Some people have no business in the civilised society...

The previous administrations never even thought of this.

Why should an incoherent dull and mentally impaired 86 years old tyrant who is bent on steam rolling innocent lives in desperation for a second term be the one to sign the not too young too run bill which I consider the mist shallow bill in our collective history...its empty nonsense I tell you, Nigeria should be looking for visionary leadership and not age based leadership
