This is how politics is suppose to be. The young ones rule while the old ones serve as advisers.
But in Nigeria we hear youths are the leaders of tomorrow while we're not given the chance to rule. If we don't do what Ghana did,we will get nowhere

Young and fresh mind and People of color are rising in the U.S politics. But in Nigeria and Africa it is sadden me. After Ilhan Omar , now it is Jone. It is amazing and role model for African elite to give young a chance.

When a nation is ready to make youths the leaders of tmoro,that's what u see. But we youths can decide only to vote for a youth and we can achieve that here in Nigeria.

Only people in the hood
Responsible 21 year olds will be well into their 2nd, 3rd year of college with a part time job to sustain themselves.
Or with a job as a high school diploma can get you real jobs, far worth more than that trash we call SSCE. A high school diploma can get you a 20-30k per annum job.
There are opportunities,enough opportunities to call it Paradise of you're smart. Its the fault of the people that choose to live in those trashy communities, most especially blacks. Communities that the Democrats love to create to keep the people as slaves to welfare.
My cousin born and brought up there has his PhD at 27 so I don't know what you're saying. It is FAR better than Nigeria.

Lol, its very possible. In this last election that Trump won, 11,000 people voted for Harambe.

In case you don't know, Harambe is the name of a dead Gorilla that got shot at a zoo because they thought he was about to harm a small child.

And he may still be doing low-waist and 2go.

you can imagine that, at this age in Nigeria you're not even qualified to be an assistant to the local youth president in your village.


I know of a man who is in his late 40s and he is the youth leader of his community.

if you at this age and you go to meet that kind of man that you want to contest for councillorship in your local government.

he will be like *See this Son of Amadi oo, who give em the Liver?*

Is he Democrat or Republican?
broseme:
21-year-old Jewell Jones, a double major student of Political science and Finance at University of Michigan has become the youngest person to be elected as State Representative in Michigan, USA. The 21-year-old politician was elected to fill a State Representative seat on Tuesday.

Jewell Jones has given his family much to celebrate over the past few years and he's done it yet again with his latest historic accomplishment.

On Tuesday, the 21-year-old politician was elected to fill a State Representative seat, beating out opponent Robert Pope with 66 percent of the vote. The seat became vacant following the sudden passing of former Rep. Julie Plawecki earlier this year. The victory makes Jones the youngest state representative ever elected in the state of Michigan and marks the second time he's made political history within the last year. In 2015, he became the youngest person ever to be sworn in as a member of the Inkster City Council at age 20.

Another black president in making, coming in few years. This was just how Obama started. Big up to him if he can sustain the edge.

We yoruba muslims must pray for only 70 year olds like Buhari and Tinubu to rule our lands. Insha Allah!
