This guy is incredibly smart and has been on my radar for a while now. The ronus, however, will find him underwhelming because hatred, tribalism and nazi-like rhetoric are not the building blocks of his character, neither are narcissism and a strong desire for unfettered adulations from the plebians, of which the vast majority of the ronus are, though in their delusions of grandiosity think themselves the inverse, a staple of his diet needed to function.

Sadly, the many young people in Nigeria today are obsessed with getting miserable peanuts and palliatives from politicians instead of advocating and fighting for good governance and democratic institutions.

Correction.

Sadly, the many young people in Nigeria today have been posessed by APC with getting miserable peanuts

This made me remember someone that once said "A Serious Government Will Fix The Power Problem In Six Months”. This man later happened to be a minister for power but couldn't fix what he was criticizing.

Comrades, give this man one ministerial appointment that relates with human capacity and development, nothing go show.

Unfortunately 90% of the youths don't know their worth and are comfortable with the freebies some as meagre as 500.
How else can one explain a situation where those who flock around politicians during public events are youths who carry placards and chant all sorts of nonsense ?

They don't need just money but ideas and skill.

Capital without ideas is a waste.

This is a good swipe at the Government that does out cash or money transfer or whatever they called it in the name of elections or Humanitarian Disaster Recovery they put us into.

The APC government today wants to enslave Nigerians so they can depend on them. That is why the other day someone said Professors should quickly get government appointment from Ibas even if it's illegal so they can cash out. He said they should take the opportunity when it comes to them. That's the immoral level APC has taken us to where you name the price and they will buy you.

It is so sad because before they came in, they advertised the best ideas. If only Nigerians knew they devil they knew in PDP was still better than these FAKE APC Angels.

APC has reduced governance to bambiala where you beg them for giving you money out of government wallet, your own money. Imagine a whole VP giving cash, Ministers giving cash. If PDP tried this before 2015, it would have been the scandal of the year they won't let us hear anything except kwaraption kwaraption kwaraption. Hypocrites


You comment is part of our problem. What did PDP did to better the life of Nigerian youth? My politician is better than your politician. my tribesman is better than yours is part of what is keeping us from moving forward.

Mr Adesina himself was one time minister for Agriculture and currently the AFDB chairman. He was and is in a better position to empower Nigerians and Africans more than anyone in the continent. While I appreciate him for raising the point, I still say talk is cheaper than action

My comment is not a problem. Your interpretation of my comment is your problem. By reading my comment, you have made your own conclusions that I am not responsible for. You campaigned for change, you said you could do better, you said those guys were bad. What did you give me in return? Sermon of excuses. That's the story of APC taking over from PDP.

PDP were not the best but hindsight has shown APC was only interested in grabbing power and now they are running away with it in Asiwaju's words. PDP could manage the frailites of Nigeria's diversity. These ones don't care. The fabric that unites us, they can let it burn just to stay in power. Today, I cannot post without people looking at it from tribe. Was it that bad 10 years ago? Ask yourself who turned Nigeria into a country where we are now so suspicious of ourselves.

Whether it's APC or PDP, I don't care. All I want is good governance for the people of Nigeria, for my generation and beyond. Why would pointing out what's wrong become a problem? If you cannot accept criticism APC, don't give it out. But it's too late, you already gave it out and now you are on the other side and whether you like it or not, you will be judged by your promises. .

It's easier said than done until Adeshina finds himself in that office.

Nigeria has a structural and institutional problem

No president can change that without dumping this constitution
Re: Youths Need Capital Not ₦10,000 Freebies, Says AfDB’s Adesina by tunapawizzy: 4:20pm On Apr 10
I love Adeshina but he should remember to remind his friends Tony Elumelu, Femi Otedola, Aig Imoukhuede and co when next they are sipping wine together at agathering.

Did he remember to mention this to Mr. President or CBN governor the last time they met, or this kind of valuable information is only for talk shows this information should be given to policy makers, he has unfettered access to them.
We should stop acting like the likes of Emir Sanusi Lamido Sanusi that will come on TV to criticize political elites and speak truth to power on TV while his children, grandchildren, nephews, nieces are getting employed in NNPC, DPR, CBN etc with his connection to board members of those agencies.

Adeshina has stated nothing but the fact!



Like the Chinese proverb says: "give a man a fish, and you feed him for a day; teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime"!


Freebies are merely scratching of the surface!


Hopefully, the authorities would begin to do the right thing.

Someone with a functioning brain has spoken beyond borders. I hope paid fools don't attack him for spilling the raw truth here. No support for SMSEs. They are building mega roads and structure with debts. Huge debts and poor value-for-money is a recipe for disaster. If not for anambra guys we will be importing plastic cups and bowls from Asia yet govt cannot give them cheap power within 3 or 4 LGA where thwy are concentrated. Same story too for Abia, Lagos and Ogun. Kano is there too, Kaduna, Jos, and few others too.

Agbadorians don't need capital. They only need small money to buy agbado while they continue shouting "on your mandate we stand"
If they buy agbado I will not worry I will believe they are hungry.

They will use the money to buy mad ness in the name of smoking weeds.
What a shameful set of shameless creatures
