The ones Yahaya Bello, Dimeji Bankole, Donald Duke had, what did they do with it? Some Tinubu's Ministers are in their 40s, what has been their achievements, so far? So it is not about the age, but values.

Donald duke was an exception but you see that dimeji, that guy was more useless than bello, and bello was very useless

Gregorystarrrr:
When will the youths finally have power?

Which youths?

The ones wearing earrings and smoking and selling drugs up and down or the ones doing Yahoo Yahoo?

This is the real youth not the one some deluded followers were parading for Nigeria's presidency. A man in his late sixty and they were fraudulently selling him as youth? We dodged a bullet

Wetin I wan meet Lamola for? E dey feed me or wetin?

I like the SAs presidential/parliamentary system. This system makes the party supreme, and not an individual who is a master of all he surveyed. The apc was meant to be modelled after the anc. This was so in its formative years until the hawks took over and selfishly made it a mere vehicle to win and consolidate power.

Chikel20000:

What if the useless humanitarian minister.. beta edu... They are all youth ND criminals...

Anguldi:

Betta Edu nko, thieves in disguise

That's the problems in the Nigerian politicians. Edu couldn't have been there without the influence of our corrupt politicians. If they want to allow the youth into the system, they should allow merit and due process but laye, they'd never allow that happen.

Better Edu had been there since akpabio was governor and they've run things together. When the apc women leader was zoned to their region, akpabio didn't hesitate to recommend her despite the cry of foul play by those who were more qualified. During ministerial nomination, he recommended her again and that's how she got there . Go and read about Special Purpose Vehicle...that's what she was for akpabio when in power in Akwa ibom. Billions mean nothing to her.

The day Nigerian youths are really ready to take their country back and move her forward, that's when they'd end suffering. Look at them in Canada, usa and other places, suffering all in the name of japa? They left the land flowing with milk and honey behind because the system had been hijacked from their hands as a result of their bigotry of sort. It's never too late to act.

Ok seen

The so called youths of Nigeria political posts, past and present, are disgrace, not only to themselves, but to the nation as a whole.
Check their performance well, well; you will see that they are worst than elder we are complaining about.

In the southern region it is possible because they tested life at the early stage in life some of their woman at the age of 27 have stopped given birth very many of them at that age 27 they have their own houses, but in the western region life starting at the age of 40 at least 60% of them that is why at the age of 70 to 80 years you will still see them in politics.

Football age.

"Give the youths a chance," "give the youths a chance"


The ones wey don get chance here na embezzlement dem still dey do o......One even use plank construct bridge to link two communities.

Clowns. Because of Israel Mata. Foreign affairs is serious for any country. They kill Nigerians in their own country who are not bombing or killing them he no talk or make case but Isreal matter wey them no fit win he takes to court. Let him continue

Nothing savage south Africans does that serves as source of inspiration to me.

Savage Na savage!

You can instinctively smell it on south Africans!

Tinubu gave one of them power. All she ever did was move government money into various private bank accounts! Dimeji Bankole wasn't that old when he became Speaker of the House of Representathieves. The problem isn't with the age. It's that Nigerian politicians are useless - all of them.

Concerned enough to comment though

Opinions are cheap. Anyone can create them.

He looks like an Igbo boy.

Dimeji was where I gave up on give youths power, give youths a chance.

WannaHowzit:
South Africa has emerged with a larger and more politically diverse administration after four weeks of tense inter-party negotiations over the formation of a government.

Its make-up is the outcome of political compromises reflecting both internal divisions among the African National Congress (ANC), which ruled the country alone for 30 years, and the grand coalition of parties that now make up the executive.

The ANC has retained control over key economic ministries – with Enoch Godongwana remaining as finance minister, to the relief of investors unsettled by the efforts of the Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF) to secure the job.

And the broadly centrist Democratic Alliance (DA) has taken a haul of ministries through which it can demonstrate some influence, despite falling short of its objective of a representative government with portfolios allocated on the basis of the electoral result.


LAMOLA AS FOREIGN AFFAIRS MINISTER

The appointment of Ronald Lamola (ANC) as minister of international relations and cooperation was unforeseen but should be highly welcomed. His appointment, coupled with the constraints brought by coalition government, will likely see a foreign policy more focused on the national economic interest.

National support for Palestinians will continue – exemplified by South Africa’s case against Israel in the International Court of Justice (ICJ). But the DA will be keen to moderate the pro-Russian stance of some ANC leaders and ensure a policy more rooted in the national economic interest.

The new foreign minister will likely return to a mode of engagement that prioritizes exerting influence through multilateral forums, rather than taking a leading role himself.


LAMOLA AS JUSTICE MINISTER

Lamola shares few personal attributes with his predecessor, Dr Naledi Pandor, but his appointment has been well received and may usher in a lower profile and more pragmatic era. He trained as a lawyer and his rise in politics began as a 13-year old in the ANC youth league.

He has been a consistent supporter of President Cyril Ramaphosa. At the 2022 ANC party conference, he ran as a rank outsider unsuccessfully for the position of deputy president.

He ignored efforts to encourage him to step aside for the sake of party unity, saying the party needed a younger generation pushing for top positions.

That he was not politically punished for this symbolizes the respect in which he is held by the party’s highest echelons and his appointment as foreign minister at the age of 40 shows he is a rising star.

From 2019 until to his new appointment, Lamola served as minister of justice, professionally running the department and supporting the judicial system – one of the most trusted institutions in the country – during a period where a high-profile target of litigation was his own party.

His leadership of the department was often cited as an area of progress under President Ramaphosa’s first term. His name would regularly appear among those discussed as exciting emerging talent and with future leadership potential.

Lamola’s political background is domestic, and he is little known overseas outside of South Africa watchers. But his term in the justice ministry put him at the centre of South Africa’s case against Israel at the ICJ.

Politically this associates him with one area of foreign policy that many South Africans are proud of. Pragmatically, he has an existing relationship with the ministry’s top officials. And the continuation of the respected Alvin Botes as deputy minister implies some consistency and experience within the departmental leadership.

Lamola’s ministerial record for competent delivery and departmental leadership will be important for his new role. Following Pandor’s individualistic style, there is a need to reconnect various elements of the department – and other ministries with international portfolios – and to leverage its skills and competencies, which include the economic diplomacy training programme.

Lamola now has one year at the helm of ministry before South Africa hosts the G20 in 2025.

Dr Pandor was doing an excellent job. I wish she was retained. She is not afraid to tell the truth to the western world the way it is.
I also love her command of the English language.

Donald was an efficient governor next time don't include him in your list

You nailed it, rather than age, what is important is capacity and desire to serve the nation without fear or favor

that's why this is shameful. allowing the racist DA party in power is a bad idea. i think na DA party that want Dr Pandor removed because he was going against europe plan with gaza. this is just like putting bawa in charge of EFCC when you have other qualified candidates there that can do the job better. na disaster this people dey bring. and you know wetin happen after bawa was in charge of EFCC. SA is the worst country.
