SLUMBERING YOUTHS
It's so heartbreaking that I come from a country where the youths are as irrelevant as the P in psychology. It disturbs me that most youths of Nigeria are cynics( y'all believe we can't change the status quo). Nothing saddens me than hear a youth say, 'if I have a chance to leave this country, I would never come back' or 'if only I am opportuned to be in any leadership position, I would loot funds more than my predecessors'; isn't it so heartbreaking??
When are we going to wake up from our slumbers and change the prejudices that our parents grew up with??
Youths help the gerontocratic and demagogue rulers of Nigeria in oppressing the helpless masses. To give you a clearer picture, up to 85 percent of Africans are below the age of 45, and just 5 percent are aged 60 or more, yet, they control us. Are we actually helpless??
For just a token, an old man buys our future and we still hail him like we are being controlled with a remote. Because of our silence, the biggest casualties of unemployment, poverty, illiteracy and social vice in Nigeria are its youth. Ain't we too dumb??
A youth that decides to sell his vote for a token and blames poverty is not different from our ignorant forefathers who sold their freedom and government all for mirror and salts. Youths are the leaders of tomorrow, so we were told; when is the tomorrow__After death??
We sacrifice our young lives for an old man, yet, we say are the revolution. In July 2018, an emotional message by a Zimbabwean cleric on social media sent shockwaves across his country. Protest after protest, the people of Zimbabwe – especially its young people – took to the streets to demand for better governance and improved standards of living. More young Africans – most of who are tech savvy – use social media as a trusted medium for monitoring and participating in serious social and political issues. In my own country, social medias are for jokes. Where have we lost it??
Theodore Roosevelt was 42, john Fitzgerald Kennedy was 43 while Obama was just 45 respectively when they first became the United states President. Emmanuel Macron(President of France) was just 41 years yet he led his people. In my country, a 45 year old is still sagging his trousers and making dry jokes on social medias. Do you even think at all!!
The only thing you need is you, stand up and fight for your rights, enough of the oppression, we are the revolution, we need a real change and not chicken change(as in money). This is a call to wake you up from your slumber.. Together, lets fight for change!!
