Slavery mentality....what else will u write when at 30 you are still being fed by your parents. How old was Zuckerberg when he started fb?...how old was Serge when he started Google? Insanity is when a thirty year old and a forty year old man is hoping that his father will be the one to chart the course of his life...what change do u expect from those that are mentally weak? So much low self-esteem among Nigerian youths.

ojosegun2011:
I will like to agree with Femi's position on the age discuss as I am sure he may be drawing his reference inference from the age of our Head of Department in the 80s at English department, University of Ife named Prof. Bisi Afolayan who was older than the VC then but was one of the best English teachers ever existed [color=#99000 0]to ever exist [/color] in Nigerian universities if not in the entire Africa. Prof Afolayan didn't allow the young lecturers who were his Post Graduate studentsc[b],c[/b] to handle the core subject (s) ) of the department alone without being properly monitored. For instance, EGL 101, 102, 201 202, 301, 302, 401 and 402 titled Structures of Modern English. the above named courses are the foundation of English studies, even as Dean of the Faculty, Prof didn't allow just anybody to handle those courses in those days except his post graguate students who were undergoing academic training in those courses at the masters and doctorate levels and he was always in the class with them to be sure they were feeding us with the right message. Age doesn't really matter in what a man can do if he is mentally alert but what Nigerians are really quarreling with Mr. President about his over, is his nominees is the time he has wasted only to have ended end up bringing the se crop of recycled politicians and no new breed as he promised on the CHANGE mantra. But still one won't be surprised if those old politicians don't have grown up children who are qualified to be Ministers. Why must it be them and not their children or political followers as Nigerians would have expected.

[b]The recent comments by the Special Adviser on Media and Publicity to Mr. President, Mr. Femi Adesina, on Buhari not going to be appointed minister of petroleum and also, age not being a yardstick for measuring performance in governance on the side of the ministerial nominees has sparked off criticisms from Nigerians who have not taken such statements like a pat on the shoulders.

Femi Adesina had said, while fielding questions on Channels that, “These people who have been nominated are qualified and are Nigerians. Talking of age, there is a saying that “age does not matter. It does not mind, if you don’t mind it.” I don’t think that age is an issue.

And talking of age, you should rather talk about mental and chronological age. If you have a chronological age of 30, which makes you a youth, and mental age is not at par, what do we gain? Nothing.”

“And you may have a chronological age of 68, which is the age of the oldest of the nominees, if that nominee now has a mental age of 15 or 20, what do we gain? We must rather talk of the mental age rather than the chronological age. It is not the chronological age that matters as long as that person has what he is bringing to the table.” He said. Here are tweets on how Nigerians responded to his statements below:[/b]
