By your reasoning, even GEJ is too old to be president. The fact remains that most youths in this country are still not capable of leadership and whether we like it or not, the elecion is between a clueless president with 6 years of mediocrity or a proven general with experience and momentum on his side, vote wisely and shine your eyes!

mrrock:


Very funny how you call a 50 years plus Jonathan an old man whereas a 73 years old man is perfectly ok by you. Sometimes, I wonder whether you people think in reverse order.
You can as well go to your village and vote the oldest man there as the next president of Nigeria. I think that would be very good since age doesn't matter.

abbey621:


Sho gbadun, did I inform you that I'm okay with Buhari's age? I'm trying to tell you that by your definition of youth, they are both disqualified. However seeing that we don't have a choice but to vote for one of them, I would rather vote for the experienced machine capable fo tacking Boko Haram, not a figurehead who would rather negotiate with them!

Genea:
thank God someone is reasoning with me,mehn dis is wat I also said in one of my thread named where are d youths, we keep on clamouring we are d future leaders of tomao bt yet we are Still dependent on our parents and voting for a 73 yrs old clamouring change, I shake my head in disgust ,I will not vote ,I won't waste my time going under d sun to vote for a recycled individual wen dere are youths ,and again Jonathan is not d right candidate for d seat but buhari is not a worthy replacement, youths should wake up frm dier slumber

mrrock:


Unfortunately, Buhari when he was your age have already done his best for Nigeria and have nothing more to offer today. Good luck with your choice though.

By-the-way, can you list me names of prosperous democratic countries with presidents at 73?.

abbey621:


Google Ronald Reagan and find out how old he was when he was president or Prime minister Jong of Netherland(99yrs old) or Napolitano of Italy or Peres of Isreal, my guy do your research and see how age is not a factor. Age has nothing on your quality of leadership, in Nigeria we are focused on worthless things such as age, religion and ethnicity when the real qualities we should be looking at is experience, communication and effectiveness.

mrrock:
.

Every one you listed here was educated, unlike Buhari a semi illiterate that can only boast of WASC (secondary school certificate).

Also let me inform you we're in 2015 brother. Those people can no longer rule their country today. The world order have changed since 2001.

By-the-way, Regan was born in 1911 and became president in 1981 at age 70 not 73 like your Buhari.

Perez is a ceremonial head of state. The real ruler of Israel is Benjamin Netanyahu. Get your facts right.

The other you from Netherlands you mentioned is too archaic to get a mention here. The world have changed as I told you.

abbey621:



Can you see your life? First you protest against his age, now it's about his qualifications? So there's a real difference between 70 and 73 Like I said I won't argue with you too much, age is useless when compared to experience.

mrrock:


Unfortunately, you're consistently missing the point.

Listen.

Buhari is not a presidential material.

1. He's not educated.
2. He's old at 73 to rule Nigeria.

Goodbye!.

[b]I feel your pain my dear but stop nagging,Is jonathan and buhari the only presidential candidate??You said buhari is not the worthy replacement and at the same time you claim jonathan is not the right candidate and you said the youths should wake up from their slumber,Let me tell you that one of the right ways for the youth to wake up from their slumber is to vote for their preferred candidate without sentiments,and that candidate could even be a youth like them which they want.....or what stops you from even becoming that change?there is a saying that "the change begins with everyone of us"...you can start from the grass-root level if truly you want the youth to take over.......you can take a leadership role and take the bold step...

and if you are saying you are not voting and assuming the other youths also say they are not voting based on the same reasoning as yours then how will the youths make their voice heard??do you think governance is rocket scienceyour vote is your power my dear......who knows whether you have even collected your pvc..

in chinua achebe's voice "there was a country"[/b]

Genea:
Lol u r ryt in a way say and yes av collected my pvc

ok..make sure you take that bold step.... you can be the change we want...
