Do we need youth 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!l 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. Even if President Buhari is 80yrs now, he was head of state in 1983, 37yrs ago, remove that from 80, that means he became the Head of State at the age of 43yrs and has bn instrumental corridor of power ever since. See what we have. What did we gain? We don't need the youths. We need a change of mindset and attitude, we need a change in the way parents nurture and train their children. 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!
