If he was not relevant as you say, he will not be called to talk at a book launching...

I don't want to complete this with a wrong question

Lol.....u b wan ask where him papa? Or how relevant him papa be for naija? Abi? Lol

He's been silent for almost a year, now this??

Now that is a FACT a very good example is Yahoo Bello of kogi

The same thing I dey tell all these guys for ages now. Na young Nigerians worse pass. Na only opportunity separate us from the old men.

True, absolutely true even though it came from a politician who happened to be one of the problems of the nation.
Bukola Saraki became governor at 41, Orji Uzor Kalu at 39, Ayo Fayose at 43, Dr Kayode Fayemi at 45, Sani Bello of Niger State at 48, Aminu Tambuwal at 49, Gabriel Suswan at 43, Sanni Yerima of Zamfara at 39, Ali Modu Sheriff of Borno at 47, Chibuke Amaechi at 42, Yahaya Bello at 41, Gov. Yari of Zamfara at 43, Hon Dimeji Bankole was speaker HOR at 37, Senator Pius Anyim was senate president at 39, Dino Melaye got to HOR at 34, Farouq Lawan at 41 etc. Apart from Ayo Fayose and Amaechi, can anyone point to any special achievement recorded by these so-called young people while in office?
Honestly Oshiomole is very right on this.

Do you know the meaning of youth?

Two things come to mind while reading your post.

First, you cherry picked people based on an age range of 30s to 40s

Very disingenuous.

There are so many politicians who were in their 50s when 1999 rolled around but you conveniently left them out. There are also many who were over 50 when they got into office since 1999

Was Yaradua a youth when President?

How about Obasanjo?

How old was Martins Elechi when he was governor?

Then again, I noticed that your definition of youth begins at 31 and continues till 49.

In none of the places where we copied democracy from, namely US and UK is a 43 year old man considered a youth.

That is an African thing and reminds one of one reason why Africa is backward in all forms of development.

Oloshi

until we start taking out these our leaders who think they are all powerful to mis yarn anyhow that is when we would get our respect as tomorrow leaders till they these old folks have no regard for us or the future of this country

Is this one still talking? What's his relevance?

Agreed.

It shouldn't be by age but by antecedents, value and character.
We can even have a tricenarian as Governor and perform better than a septuagenarian. Vice versa!

It shouldn't be by age but by antecedents value and character

You fine reach am ode una go just hide behind keyboard dey insult other people papa if u wan criticize do so with sense and state ur facts why body shame am can ur father achieve what he achieved

Ammishaddai:
This politically dead fool is just trying to say old peolpe should continue ruling Nigeria forever .

You sounded absolutely senseless.

Every damn comment credited to Oshiomhole in this piece of news represents the naked truth.

Infact, Oshiomhole has never been more honest. What has age got to do with governance? Most Nigerian youths, like their older folks, are grossly reckless, senseless and wayward.

James Ibori, Orji-Kalu, Dimeji Bankole, Joshua Dariye, Yakubu Gowon, Chukwuemeka Ojukwu, Salisu Buhari, Donald Duke etc, were all youths when they occupied top leadership positions?

Mamzna:
I wish all politicians can be assassinated

So we can have a fresh start

What are you waiting for, take the lead.

OGA EX-CHAIRMAN,PLS WHO IS A YOUTH?WHAT IS UR OWN DEFINITION OF A YOUTH?

FuckAllTheMODs:
Ok...

So minimum age for governor or president position should be 70, since you termed people over 40 or 45 as youths, abi?

Don't let me say what is on my mind concerning this your post.

Nairaland has gone to the dogs, lazy teenagers that cannot read and comprehend are too many but active in the forum.

If not how on earth does what oshiomhole said now call for this comments.

If this bbn kids are the future of this nation then there own will be worse.

Don't mind those useless lazy youths that are now more active in nairaland forum. How on earth is this naked truth Oshiomhole said warrant those insults on him breaks my imagination.
Many cannot even read and comprehend.

I agree

Na em make u lose relevance for ur state and party. Mr. Tailor turned governor

DWJOBScom:


I agree

The rest are old people which means they were the majority. That is why we need more young people in government.

Lol, did you just call me a kid?
Anyway this is social media.

I don't need to read the trash he said.
Just mention one governor under 30 or single since 1999 or keep your silly response to yourself.

Honestly Oshiomole is very right on this.

So how does this list make up most of the people in government? The names you mentioned no even reach 50. Some not Most should have been used by Oshiomole.

[/s] Oga, if you consider people who are in their late 30 and 40s as "youth" ,then you have a serious mental issue that only God can cure

But to speak the truth, he is right in one way, just see some local Government Chairmen who are youths, even one Governor we all know. If we the youths want to take power we have to change our mindset.
