Do we need youths to have a better country? Sadly, our current leaders started leading as youths. Check their respective ages and subtract the last 20 years of democracy from it and let's see what we have. Let's take Rotimi Amaechi for instance. He is 55 now. He's 6 years into Minister. That means he became Minister at 49. He was Governor for 8 years. That means he became Governor at 41. Prior that, he was Speaker for 8 years, that means he was Speaker at 33. Freaking 33! How youth can youth be! Do the maths for all of them and you will see that youth has brought us nothing. Fashola is 57. He was in Tinubu's Cabinet. Tinubu became Governor 21 years ago. Remove 21 from 57, that's 36. How youth can youth be? Wike is 53. He has been in power for the last 15/20 years. That's 33-35. How youth can youth be? Dimeji Bankole was a freaking 37 as Speaker in the National Assembly. Ahmed Lawan is 61. He is been in the assembly since 1999. That was 21 years ago at the age of 40. See what we have. What did we gain? We don't need the youths. We need a change of mindset and attitude. Both young and old. Else, it's the same story. Youths have always been in power! They became old in power! Yet we are here! Let's ask for the right things o. I come in peace. Extract/#spinnetsport. 1 Like 1 Share |

RomanianNinja: If you become local government chairman at the age of 30, later house of rep, later house of senate and later governor by the time you are contesting for presidential election you would have clock 60 or 70 plus... depending on the number of term you spend Let's not deceive ourselves 2 Likes 1 Share |

So true. How old was Gowon, Ojukwu, Katsina as head of state and governors, check it out. Even Police and SARS are full of young men and women. Let them retire at the age of 55 and start a business where they contribute in non-profit organizations or create jobs. https://m.thenigerianvoice.com/news/292946/retire-for-youths-start-local-businesses-or-work-part-time.html 1 Like |
