Let us start by reading the statement from Buhari>>>

"And then the economy. We have a very young population and our population is estimated conservatively to be 180 million. The 60 percent of the population is below the age of 30. A lot of them have not been to school and they are claiming that Nigeria has been an oil producing country and therefore they should sit and do nothing and get housing, healthcare and education free,"

If you are among those who went to school and still feel offended about this statement, then maybe you did not really go to school to have such a guilty conscience.

If you did not go to school yet you work really hard to make a living, then this statement is also not for you.

This statement is for those with entitlement mentality, who disturb the hardworking members of the society by lancing freely without doing anything.

They are the ones who when government give out a contract to develop a place request that the contractor pays them money first before he can start work despite the fact that the amenity will benefit them.

These are the youths who will not allow you set up a block or building without paying "deve" level.

These lazy youths are the ones who made it difficult to justify your degree or education.

These are the youths who by virtue of being connected with no known means of income drive the best cars while the phd graduates roam the streets.

The list is endless, but if you are educated and you somehow managed to group yourself among those who are referenced by Buhari as "A lot of them have not been to school", then you cannot blame the man for putting yourself in that group.

.

You can't explain this obvious gaffe by president Buhari. If he wants to advice nigerian youths, he should communicate when in Nigeria.
How many presidential media chats have held since he assumed power? But the moment he travels abroad he starts de-marketing the country.
He is out of tune with the suffering masses.

You may have a point about the de-marketing stuff though and he seems to have provided his enemies a new set of ammunition.

he should note that the youths are the engine of any society

Idiotic pigs of Biafra are looking for every means to nail my guy.

the yoot are the engine of any society, but they are not doing that, instead they are engaging themselves how to do money rituals, into all sort of crime looking for free money without working for it.

Bunch of idiots.

Go and watch Trump's presentation to the last World Economic Forum and learn how a president is his country's first cheerleader and Salesman-in-Chief.

You tell the world that lots of your present and future potential workforce are uneducated and lazy, yet you wonder why Ghana and Ethiopia are ahead as the fastest growing economies and investment destinations in Africa.


This is the same country where the informal sector is largely driven by the youths. But buhari won't promote that, instead he zooms in on the demonization syndrom just to get a kick from his bigoted moral high horse.

Folks like you the OP are the root problem of Nigeria. And as long as people with your mindset keep roaming around the space with your utter sycophancy the country has no hope.

Shameless skowpokes.

BMC stop justifying that stupid statement made by your paymaster if you have been to other countries you will certainly know how hard working Nigeria youth are by comparing them but I didn't blame Buhari I blame Nigeria youth who's many have spent millions of Naira to fund their Education doing all manner of jobs season in and out without common basic necessity from so call government who feed from us fund their children Education abroad, travel abroad from any slight headeache, embezzled our money without accountability with his unemployed son own a N56m bike, unemployed wife have a single handbag worth N40m to call us lazy people. In fact what Buhari need is mass beaten from youth on his arrival in this Country not Election he deserves to be overthrow by youth because every sane man know Buhari will rigg 2019 election.

Especially those who claimed to have gone to school but can hardly read to comprehend an article before responding to it.

That was just one aspect of his presentation but of course this is the only aspect that has been highlighted by those who want to twist everything the president says.

The fact is there are some youths who have a high sense of entitlement mentality, the forum he made that statement may have been wrong though, but the quest for even the educated ones to add themselves to those he was speaking about sparks of bitter politics.

If you do not see anything wrong with those words you highlighted coming from the present of a country, then, i think you are the one who reads but do not understand. You should be the one buhari should have refered to and not 30 percent of Nigerian youths that struggling, doing their best to survive an unfriendly environment like Nigeria.

Sir, Understand that it is not about classification of lazy or not lazy. it is about a president being an image-maker! How can a president call his own citizens lazy and or uneducated and expect to get foreign investments? Think about it. PMB can be likened to a father that calls his daughters prostititues, he should NOT expect them to have suitors!!

I am 100% with you on this. As a leader, there are things you do not say. If that was the argument in town, there would have been no need for this post but I do not understand why even educated people are somehow struggling to join the group of those who are not educated.

justtoodark:

Buhari is the only president in the world who is not educated.

Just like justtoodark, I agree with you 100%. This is a better argument that all the emotion ones flying around.
As a leader, there are things you do not say, at least outside your shores.

He could not have been referring to me as I am educated and do not believe that I should seat down and get free money. If you have grouped yourself into the lazy group, then it is your problem, not his. Except you are fighting a just cause for the uneducated who probably due to no fault of theirs are uneducated, then I do not yet see the reason for all the emotional outburst.

You guys are just funny...he said "a lot" which means a larger percentage of the youth are lazy, and these same large percentage are those that voted for him cos they believed in him....for a president to have come out to say the larger percentage of his youths are lazy, uneducated, and irresponsible tell a lot about the mental state of such a president whose youths believed in and voted for....it's really a shame

I take it, you didn't listen to the full q&a session. He was asked to answer two questions, one bothering on investment in the north east since he claims Boko Haram have been defeated and the other about Nigeria's refusal to join the African single market. And the demented prick started blabbing about Nigerian youth and how lazy and uneducated they are. Who asked him? That was exactly how they asked him about inclusive government and he started talking about how he was going to treat a section of the country that gave him 5% votes different from those that gave him 97% votes. Same thing when he called Nigerians criminals. Always answering questions he was never asked. This is what even hurts me more that he didn't even need to cast insults on Nigerians when he does. Buhari hates all Nigerians and he can't even hide his disgust. He believes he is doing us a favour by being our president and that's why he comes down hard on every form of dissent without even thinking about it.

9jatriot:

Did u even take note of the question he was asked before he started waxing all ignorant and sanctimonious about Nigerian youths?
He was asked his thoughts on investments in the North East and Trading in African continent (words to that effect). If u were asked to address these would u ever see the need to insult 'a lot' of Nigerian youths abd then go on about the Minister of Information's response comparing pre May 2015-2018?

What was the connection?

Buhari forgot that he can not be in power for ever,d youth are the pillers of the this country.millions of youth graduates from university every year.what standard has he set to eliminate laziness from youth.I in person disappointed,for such statement coming out from d president.

A leader who talks down or refers to his followers as lazy and uneducated people isn't worth to be called a leader but a dictator.

Buhari is a disgrace to Nigerians of old, present and unborn.
