GREENSTONE EMMANUEL: THE EMERGING YOUNG LEADER TO WATCH

Since the return of our great country to democracy some 18 years ago, the tussle for power among the political giants of our dear country has been a major item on the menu of national discourse among the youths who sadly have been relegated to the sidelines of decision making both on the competitive and policy impact political fronts.

In Electing leaders into governance in Nigeria, it has always been a case of old age, financial muscle, recycled leadership or godfatherism piloting the ship of electioneering politics, save for the year 2017 that saw the monumental Not Too Young To Run bill passed into law and has stirred the zeal of young men and women ahead of 2019 general elections. Despite this golden opportunity, what most youths continue to do is lament and complain and shift blames on the government and public officers for our predicaments, misfortunes and poverty rather than rise to champion or support the advancement of youths in the political arena come 2019.

Election into public offices is not the only area of urgent necessary involvement of our youths in politics, the role and impact of various political parties in government decision and governance cannot be overemphasised. Political parties guide, support and influence the activities of any government. Administration of political parties is not beyond the ideal foothold of the youths as some still perceive it. Hence, youth participation in political party administrative roles is a new challenge that the capable and vibrant Nigerian youths must overcome. Notable among the youths rising to bear the youthful flags on the political front is a young man of tested and proven character and leadership Greenstone Emmanuel vying for the portfolio of Deputy National Youth Leader of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).

Greenstone as he is popularly known, is a person of astute political ideologies, fearless, committed and positive in attitude to leadership issues. His antecedents and track records speak volumes in his favour. As an undergraduate in the University of Ilorin, he demonstrated zero tolerance to corruption by saving the student union 10m naira from been embezzled, blocking numerous attempts of corruption in the students government and ensuring that corrupt student executives were brought to book. He also served as an invaluable executive of the National Union of Benue State Students (NUBESS). Education has been described by many as an instrument par excellence for liberating the mind and building the nation. Been fully aware of this and owing to his passion for personal and societal development, Greenstone was recently awarded a Masters degree from whence he now pursue a Doctorate Degree in the same institution at his young age. Greenstone is an unrepentant frontier of the youth who believes so much in the invaluable role of the Nigerian youth in the growth of this country. His passion to impact the young generation led to the formation of the Nigerian National Youth Frontiers, which was his brain child with a vision to reaching out to youths all over the country to motivate and position them to be active in decision making process as it affects them.

In reality, facts suggest that not every youth can contest and win elections against the big old wigs in Nigerian politics come 2019 as their grasp on the masses will take time to wither. However, it is also a fact that if every Nigerian youth speak with one voice, in favour of our rising political youngsters, who are competent, have been and are still blazing the trail in the political arena, our voices, votes and support will be enough to position competent and capable youths like Comrade Greenstone in the corridors of power to our favour. On this account, our different political ideologies and loyalties if allowed to come between our long overdue aspirations of youth governance, will work in favour of the same old and recycled leaders who in their political permutations, lodge their loyalties to any side of the divide that supports their political ambitions.

As a young man who has all the experiences of the embittered Nigerian youth, Comrade Greenstone understands the plight of the dislodged youths in the present economic and social realities of our country. Hence the ambitions of Greenstone and his young likes is more than just the ambitions of one or two, but it is the dream of our generation as youths as having a say in governance ensures policies that will take into account the position and prospects of the Nigerian youth.

I stand with GREENSTONE EMMANUEL for the position of PDP Deputy National Youth Leader.
