An Average Nigerian Youth Is A Coward by Pusyiter(m): 4:21pm On Dec 11, 2019
I sat down to reflect and have been saddened on the recent development in our country.
From the arrest of Sowore to the abuse of human rights in Nigeria, you can hardly see an average youth complain or condemn the acts of this government rather, we are fanning the embers of tribe, religion and political party just for pecuniary dividend.
I saw Oshiomole and Gov. Wike hugging each other yesterday but you see youths killing themselves for them.
Rather than face the problem squarely, an average Nigerian youth prefers to be a dog in another man's manger by traveling aboard rather than remain and be a lion in the jungle called Nigeria.
We have been engrossed in yahoo yahoo, cultism and ritualism for transient pleasure.
Take it or leave it, those who fought for democracy are either old to function or are dead thereby permitting this regime to take us to the dumpsite but I have never seen any youth organization coming out to condemn the ignoble acts of this regime.
We are quick to talk about sex on empty head and stomach and take selfies on the numbing impudence and crass narcissism of this regime yet, we keep silent.
I know a foolish youth will jump to comment in the opposite but in the voice of Wole Soyinka, the man died in whom who keeps silent in the face of tyranny.

There's no reason to complain endlessly without taking action. The simple thing to do is call your representatives and tell them to threaten impeachment. If they don't agree recall them. Nigerians aren't interested in actionable solutions so it doesn't matter. The other topics are at least interesting on some level.

I dont care for rallies unless it's in Abuja. I'd rather just talk to my rep and call it a day. It's been proven on nairaland these guys answer their phones and will listen.

That's what I been saying concerning some Nigerians that feel that u.s should intervene in this Sowore saga. Call your reps and tell them to impeach Buhari.

Yes, many “nigger Area” youth are cowards, but more worrisome is the average Nigger Area youth likes enjoyment....Short and sweet....they like nyash, from Lagos to Atlanta, they like Hennessy and Remi Martin, they like party, they like EPL, they like posing and chopping food.....SO why would they leave those to do the hard task of nation building like their mets in Asia and Europe and the Americas?


They only want to consume what others have built and think they are something......


It is a shame because at the end of the day they will not achieve anything and begin to suffer....

Dont blame the youth. It is the elders. Every revolution has always been powered by the above 30 crowd not the under 30 crowd. Look at the American Revolution or the First Barons war in England. Those were by Older men. Look at Sowore . How old is he ? 48 years old. Castro was in his 30s when he launched the Cuban Revolution. Blaming Nigerians lack of Democratic favor on the Youth is wrong. It makes very little sense. And us that are abroad are far from DOGS in anothers manger. Nigerians do very well here.

I blame Nigerias problem on people like you that lack critical thinking skills, no Idea or concept of History or Global Geopolitics and have a rather childish immature hope in Nigerias viablility. Get your head out of the sand. Nigeria is not viable and is just a Cash cow for forign entities to exploit and milk. Case in point. Nigeria spends $6 billion a year on importing petrol something that if not for dysfunction we should be exporting. Another thing. Nigeria spends over 30 % of its budget in debt servicing to other countries . But when Sen Abaribbe ( an Ibo man) queries this Lawan ( a Hausa Man ) warns him not to even dare question Buhari(another Hausa man) on it.

That is Nigerias problem.Infighting among the tribes. Best to split the country up.

Sowore revolutionist that ran away on sighting security forces..

These are the real cowards and empty drums. They only know how to make noise online.


Moreover Sowore revolution is all about Yorubas emancipation and doesn't concern other Nigerians.

And then there are ones like this subtlely discouraging people from taking action. Calling out the youths to wake up from their slumber by the OP is an action in itself.

The real question is what are you doing besides making snide remarks at people that make calls to action? And still sucking up to mama's breast milk ofcourse grin

I am doing my duty non-stop where I am to protest Nigeria's failed leadership anytime any of them steps here. No matter which state they visit. Most government officials are now scared shitless to announce foreign visits whenever they make them now.

Loads of bright minds like myself are ever ready to come join or even lead the fight but that fight is null when the main victims aren't ready 'yet' to break from their chains.

The real question is what are you, A direct bearer of oppression, poverty and near-slavery livelihood doing to push back against your oppressors?
