A rise of great youth of Nigeria for we have a mandate to transform this country from a potentially great to a truly great nation. One fact that you must understand, as a youth, is that leadership is not the same as someone standing before you to say let's go this way. Leadership is a mentality of assumed responsibility. It's a mentality that says i can make a difference, I am responsible.

It is rather disappointing to know that a typical Nigerian youth has the mentality of differed responsibility. So when you talk about generation lacking leadership, I agree with you to the point of saying that many people in this generation are still looking for a messiah, they're seeking someone who will save Nigeria and create employment for its teeming population, thereby depriving themselves the opportunity of exhibiting the leadership knack in them.
As a way forward, we need to define the values of our nation. In 2008, 420 young leaders under the tutelage of Fela Durotoye adopted ten values as their guilding principle to effective leader ship. These included making a positive impact on anyone and everywhere, being solution providers rather than being a part of the problem to be solved, being a role model and the best in every action/decision and doing the right thing at all time regardless of whom is doing the wrong thing.

If we bring these values to our consciousness, then we will surely have a great nation. The current moment is where our better future begins. The past gave us a wealth of memories and experience, but the present gives us a chance to use them wisely in creating an exciting future.

We become a powerful force when each of us understands how powerful all of us are and when each of us understands how powerful all of us are and when all of us understand how valuable each of us is. We can change leadership, and we can change the direction of our nation for the better. We have the chance, we have the capacity, we have the ability.


The elements are all there, including the freedom to try. The decision lies within all of us. The choice is ours to transform this nation from a potentially great nation to a truly great nation. The time is now. If not us, who? If not now, when?

cheesy

We are busy stitching and amending threads on Nairaland, we are on the corridor of Twitter engaging in yansh battle, we're on the podium of Instagram stalking celebrities lifestyle and we are also on the written pages of Facebook doing one childish thing or the other.

We are mostly an artificial being and a digital character. we will always be docile in real world and continue to be outspoken in the digital world.

Which youths? The useless idiots that have only tribalism on their minds? Nigerian youths are the most useless set of youths in the world. The country is hopeless, the leaders of tomorrow are blind dumbheads who have nothing to offer
