I quite agree with Buhari tagging the youths of today as lazy . Those days the youths were in power at younger age and focused on their dreams . But to understand the political atmosphere of the country right now is a big deal but they are verse on everything going on in social media.
The youths of today are mediocres to be honest , spoiled brats .

No, they just learnt to give us work, no youth will think of power when you make it seem impossible,yhey cant think of it in economical instability, they are doomed to graduate from uni to do pos business or comedy on Instagram.

To think such a great man was killed by a garage man like the national secretary of a bad political party, out to punish Nigerians. An iroko was felled by a shrub.

I remember Engr Funsho Williams, another great man felled by shaky shaky bandit.

Killer party!!!

You people typing what you have no clue about basing your judgement on hearsay and bad news is a pure sign of illiteracy. See, u in particular shouldn’t aspire to be a leader because u will be a bad one . Great leaders are thorough and purposeful. They don’t talk at random. They are visionary people. And no visionary man says what he doesn’t know anything about.

The youths of the present day Nigeria need to wake up. Nobody will give you power on a platter of gold. We have to get involve & wrestle power from the old brigades or politicians.

Don't be deceived by the slogan that youths are the leader of tomorrow.

Tomorrow is now. Today should be the beginning of the struggle to get the power to lead tomorrow.

Bola Ige, a rare gift of his generation.
A wordsmith, genius and an administrator par excellence.
He was killed in mysterious circumstances under the watch of a former President who is also his kinsman.

Rest well, hero

He was killed because he made contacts with German companies who were ready to move to Nigeria and solve the NEPA problem.
The greater mistake he made was, he confided in OBJ on his plans.
By default, OBJ leaked Ige's mission and those forces who had sworn to keep making money through imported generators killed this man off.

-I have always said that when I gave up on Nigeria was the day they killed Bola Ige (SAN), in his own home/town.

-If they can kill a serving Minister of Justice, who can they not kill? Up till today, no one has been found guilty of that heinous crime. Interesting when I mentioned this to my yoruba friend, he asked me whether the man was my father? Smh!

-I bet you those who killed Bola Ige (SAN) have assumed leadership of his region, and are now answering "political geniuses".

-Nigeria is indeed, Dead.

This is the fear you always have.
People die, when US go to war they die, people are dying in Russia Ukraine war, people die currently in Nigeria more than war torn countries.

However, not every breakup requires human sacrifice, Yugoslavia broke up without a shot being fired, same with USSR.

The reason why millions of Igbos died in the uncivil war was because the Yorubas and middle belts joined the North to fight the Igbos after Awolowo said he'd leave if Igbos leave.
