In recent times, I have been following comments on major social media platforms, criticizing the apparent ‘recycling’ of our ‘old’ leaders in Nigeria and calls for young or should I say, vibrant men and women to lead us.
Those who support this motion, no doubt, are more with a few expressing worries on the preparedness, maturity and almost zero chance of our young and vibrant men and women. Yul Edochie, in the just concluded Anambra State Governorship election comes to mind. Although, the people say we need young leaders, not even the youths took him serious not to talk of giving him their support. Ours is where and how we can get the immediate financial/material gains.
I, as a person, also have these worries too but recently, I was moved to raise this ‘motion’ or question if you like, in this ‘hallowed chamber:’
In your opinion, who is that honest, enlightened, popular, vibrant, patriotic Nigerian between the ages of 45 and 55 in the four broad regions of East, West, North and South of Nigeria? Let’s know those who are capable of holding leadership positions at the various arms and levels of government in Nigeria.
Honest and rational opinions only. No aspersions intended please.
