lordkit400:
This is new age qualification to run for a political office as approved by the Nigerian Senate during the constitution review exercise yesterday.

Before now, a person must be at least 40 years of age to be elected President or Vice President, 35 to Be a Senator or State Governor, and 30 to be a Representative in parliament.

This is not feasible.

Let's return to the status quo, I even suggest 60years for any political office.

At 30-35years the average Nigerian youth is unemployed, still sagging,
duping people via fraudulent ATM/BVN text messages.
Then using the proceeds to smoke shisha at Club Joker and carry oloshos from Rita Lori.

hahahahhaahhahahhahahahahahahahahhahaha..u made my day ..hhhahahahahha..still laughing oooooo..that Bvn message gat me dead...dude sent me such,i told him i had 10 billion in accont and gave him pin,he never called back.

those Nigerians feeling happy over d new age requirement for political office holders,I laugh in Swahili,take ur time & observed d country present politicians,all of them after sending their wards to Yankee to school,wards are back no work,it time they give way for them,by super imposing them on d masses, after all REMI tinubu is there,their father rule us,they will do same, democracy is dead in Nigeria,what we have is monarchy, hereditary, nothing more,a law would have been past to barred persons whose parents have tasted power not to contest & watched if those polithiefians won't changed their mouth.

Why is the age limit for senate not quoted in that picture, do they want to approve for every other seat except theirs,the best thing Nigerians can do is to boycott 2019 elections we will not vote for those presently in government,we want new faces of credible value in our political sector not all these chop i chop government

Reducing the age is good but the required academic qualifications should be increased to do away with Stark illiterates occupying strategic leadership positions whether by elections or appointment while encouraging the desire for knowledge in our youths e.g diploma/NCE for councillors, HND/BSc for chairmen n above with a minimum of 2nd class lower/lower credit or their acceptable equivalent, buhari has open our eyes to so many things.

I think we should learn to appreciate some few things happening, if they don't do this, we will still complain. Must we complain or disagree with everything?

Hahaha. As if you have what it takes to takeover from them.
The "old men" are far better than your peers. When they were your age, they were already mentally prepared for leadership while you and your peers are only good in pornography, yahoo yahoo, promotion of hate speeches, examination cheating and all manners of vices.

Most of you do not even know the history of your local govt., state or nation not to mention west Africa, Africa or the world.

The old men are only compelled by this stack reality to fill the obvious leadership vacuum created by your docility and ineptitude.
