Nigeria Not Ripe For Youth Governance. by DadaStephen1(m): 5:22pm On Oct 14, 2018
My Opinion on Youth Governance In Nigeria ��

Nigeria is not ripe for a youth or woman Governor or President yet.

It is not the Governor or President that makes things work,
It's the Legislators, Ministers/Commissioners and Civil Servants.

We need the youths to first sweep up the Legislative arm of government(which is already beginning to happen). So that we can make laws from the present and future.
So that we can create modern systems that can make governance succeed.

If you appoint a youth Governor or President, they will be sabotaged by corrupt and old civil servants who won't make things work.

They will be frustrated by political retirees in the National Assembly who will kill every opportunity of making anything change from statuesque and tradition.

You can't just wake up to drive a new car!
You must
Know the car
Know the road
Know how to drive (first by watching someone who drives closely)

Lastly,
Leadership is not a function of age but capability, character, experience, enthusiasm and will.
You can be a youth leader and still fail woefully.

Let's not wait till we have money to contest, then we form political parties. Let's join the existing ones now and rise to the top so we call lead in the right way we dream.

Nigeria is a TWO PARTY State and every other party is an END OF THE YEAR PARTY�
The majority of the voters are illiterates and villagers in the remotest of villages.
They know only PDP and APC because those guys have existing structures at the grassroots and elections are won at grassroots, not on social media.

Except A Man Effects A Change, He Should Not Expect A Change.
