Mr. man don't come and give us lamba here. You will not find it easy doing what you're saying. We are tired of all these yeye promises.


If you really want to do this, contest as a lawmaker and pass a bill that supports what you're saying.

If this is true - and I don't consider random Instagram posts to be reliable sources of news - then it only indicates that Sowore has nothing more than "youth" going for his campaign, with no real thought given to formulating reasonable and achievable policy objectives, just more spur-of-the-moment propagandizing in the exact same manner as the Buhari he's trying to remove from Aso Rock.

What I don't understand at all about Sowore is how he can have lived for so long in a place like America, with its highly sophisticated politics full of policy wonks, think-tanks and foundations pushing out white papers, famous economists dissecting political proposals, etc, and yet his campaign has so far failed to show any of that sort of sophistication, just more of the same old intellectually vacuous nonsense that Nigerian politicians have always favored, with the only new twist being Sowore's lack of affiliation to any of the old godfathers. Didn't he ever bother to watch CNN, C-SPAN or the Daily Show? Didn't he ever take out a subscription to the New York Times, the Washington Post or The Economist? How can someone living in a land of limitless bandwidth display so little exposure to serious political thinking?

Without proof that wisdom accompanies Sowore's "youth", we might as well replace the decrepit and clueless Buhari with the "youthful" but even more useless Yahaya Bello, who at least has a track record, terrible as it is. Simply being "young" (at 47!) is just not enough.

I certainly believe that what Sowore is doing is valuable, for showing the Nigerian masses that they have more options than just the same old geriatric thieves, but Sowore's failure to show that he's thought seriously about Nigeria's problems and how to fix them - or even that he's bringing onto his team such serious thinkers - tells me that it would be a grave mistake to treat him as anything more than a protest candidate against the status quo. Hopefully his campaign will open the way for other "youthful" but more intellectually heavyweight candidates to eventually make it to Aso Rock.

There are estimate 12 million physically challenged people in Nigeria.

Sowore wants to pay them
50,000 x 12 x 12,000,000 = 7,200,000,000,000 a year.

That's 7.2 trillion naira annually by 2019/2020.
Meanwhile our 2018 budget is 7 8 trillion, another youth who has refused to grow up, still telling tales at 47.
