Senator Ben-murray Bruce Writes Open Letter To Nigerian Youths by nairagossip1: 1:07am On Mar 03, 2016
Senator Ben-Murray Bruce has penned down an open letter to the youths of Nigeria, Read Below:

Youths of Nigeria, I want to communicate with you today. I noticed that there are too many divisions amongst our youths and as a stakeholder in Nigeria and parent of Nigerian children, I believe I ought to intervene.

Youths, do not make the mistakes my generation made. Do not see yourselves through tribal and religious lens. My generation of Nigerians did that and look where it has led us. You must do better.

It is foolish for any youth to fight another youth over APC or PDP. Let me ask you, what is the difference between the APC and the PDP? Half of the members of the APC are former PDP members and vice versa.

Let me ask you youths a question: Do the APC and the PDP fight over you as you fight over them? How many ministers have they given you? How many ambassadors have they given you? How many heads of parastatals have they given you? That’s right, the answer is ZERO!

So resist the desire of vested interests to control you and use you to fight other youths on social media and in real life.

What youths do not realize is that you are victims of divide and conquer. You make up 60% of the population yet account for 0% of the federal cabinet!

Your price should be more than a plate of rice and a handshake. Work together not against each other! Come on Nigerian youths, be smart!

If you think after you have been used to fight each other these vested interests will hand power to you, think again. Their kids who are abroad will do same to your kids!

It is time to end the hate and come together for Nigeria’s good. Long after we are gone, you will be around. So learn to get along.

As I have said and I will keep saying, the youths are the leaders of today if only they will resist being used by vested interests.

How old is Trudeau, the Canadian PM. He was 43 when he became PM. You can be much more than a thug or Twitter overlord. You can be like Trudeau’s.

My name is Ben Murray Bruce and I not only want to make commonsense, I also believe in the Nigerian youth.

Hey mister grin, take the message leave the messenger.
From his write up, his generation failed and he doesn't want us to go the same way...

We mustn't make all the mistakes by ourselves before we learn. Wisdom is the rightful application of knowledge wink

Is the advise for IPOB or for all youths in the country? It always pains me when one expect to find wisdom but instead meet stu.pidity.

Mr. Ben who are they? are you not one of them. what do you mean by Nigeria politicians? Mr. Ben let me ask you.where is your own kids? stop wasting your time because you are not different. only what I see here is a man with bigger political ambition who is trying all his best to win the heart of Nigeria youth for his selfish political ambition in the future period.

Awesomely said Sen. Bruce. But I'll tell you that the disease of tribalism and religious bigotry/extremism has eaten deep into the mind of not just the adult, but the youth as well.

I believe you know how many nigerians add tribal and religious sentiment into everything they do.

Our country Nigeria has morphed into "survival of the fittest" the clear state of nature, "homo homini lupus est" where man is wolf to his fellow man, that's why every and anybody always want to grab what they can when the opportunity present itself.

The ruse of divide and conquer as planted by our political class is well played that's why its working and it will continue to work when people like you, yes Sen. Bruce, when people like you, who know better refuse to speak against it.

The dirty politics played by your party in the last presidential election goes to show just how desperate people are in Nigeria, so Sen. Bruce, it begins with you. Let's hear you condemn the way our leaders rule over us, instead of hearing you scold the youths. After all, "the way a child is trained, is the way he/she will behave".

A call for Nigerian youths to pick arms as revolutionaries. but then, the youths are too short sighted to think beyond 4years.

Until the streets of Nigeria flows with the blood of all her elites cut across religious, tribal, economic, political, academics and professional fields, the youths are owned and bound in chains for atleast the next 100 years.

The youths of Nigeria has three options :

Escape the country and plan your family and old age in a country that works

Fight as revolutionaries or

Sit back and enjoy the sufferings with smiles and pray you don't make hell at the end of your Nigeria existence cos it will be double tragedy.
