In the wake of a recent clash between Deji Adeyanju, the director of new media at People’s Democratic Party (PDP) and Olusegun Dada, a volunteer with the presidential media team at a lounge in Abuja, Senator Ben Murray-Bruce admonished youths to refrain from such divisive actions.

The senator representing Bayelsa East senatorial district advised that young people should relate with one another with courtesy without placing undue emphasis on religious, political and ethnic affiliations.

“Only foolish youths fight each other over APC/PDP,” he said, noting that there was no substantial difference between the All Progressives Congress (APC) and the PDP.

The senator also pointed out the fact that there were no youths in the federal executive council, to buttress his assertion that neither PDP nor APC would fight over youths. He therefore called for more collaboration among youths.

The chairman of the Silverbird Group further urged youths to note that by fighting each other, they fall prey to the ‘divide and rule’ tactics of the elite who would surely bypass them in selecting new leaders.

He made a good point. Looking at d way politicians rotate themselves in different positions, I see the same circle of people in d corridor of power for a very long time. But we must watch out for their children...


because in d nearest future, I c them contesting with d money their parents stole for them. Ask yourself dis, how many average Nigerians can afford a nomination ticket for presidency?


We no escort them come dis world.

Tinubu even smiles

I cannot but agree with Ben Bruce on this one, it baffles me whenever I see youths fighting over political parties or even politicians.
I personally have no party affiliation, all I'm after is good governance and it doesn't matter to me which party or individual that gives it to me.
I've always said it that nigerian youths aren't ready for leadership positions because most of us don't ask the right questions, and we've also allowed ethnicity, religion and party affiliation to becloud our sense of reasoning.
I hope some youths won't flood this thread to attack the messenger rather than focus on the message

Good Point but politicians are not equally bad.
There are you can regards as the

Best of a band bunch
Or least bad of the worst.

In any case , you should always choose the least bad .

He is on point,I've been Neutral going to a month now

No sense in supporting those useless politician

The Truth is that, I don't believe in any political party!

But Every morning, I wake up praying and believing God that Buhari should succeed and make the economy better!

But some people still want him to fail so that another party will enter...

Now my question is....

If Buhari fails, 2019 is far and we will bear the brunt for 4yrs. The new party to enter, are they Taking over with any guarantee of "Delivery"??


Believe in any Government on Board!!

Common sense dude

Any youth that criticises negatively what this man is saying is also foolish. Forget about the messenger truth is truth anyday anytime.

If buhari has ben murray common sense our country will be better than London

But buhari is a nomadic man , a foolish cattle rearer who God will punish for life

They r more than foolish sir and this is applicable to e warriors of all the parties instead of youths against the bad politicians.

The common sense Senator has spoken well again.

Lalasticalala, do something.

You are on point Commonsense Senator.I wonder why mere citizens will be dying because of our selfish politicians

We are so petty and tribal that many Nigerians don't even want the government to succeed in anything so that they can laugh, gloat and tell them " I thought they said they will move Nigeria forward". I don't pray for Nigeria, I only pray to survive in Nigeria.

Words on marble

Simple reason.
The youth supporting this present government don't want to let go of the last government.

They blame the incompetence of the present government on the last government

They attack anyone who challenges such narrative.

The opposition feel it's wrong to keep putting out such narrative and come in defense.

All of this is caused by the lack of magnanimity of APC from day 1.

Hatred for a man who isn't even aware of your existence can only consume you. Free your mind from hate!

So what do we call people like omenka,passingshot, modath, ngwenunkwe and co?

Foolish youth or foolish rice eaters?

Common sense, but some apc rats won't agree with us. Nigeria over any political party

Ben Bruce, am not entirely your fan, but many times you nail it right on the spot.
Well said!!
The Nigerian youths have foolishly sold out their future to brazen politicians who don't care a dime about them.

Best sermon he ever gave!!! #respect

Who cares, just get off ma mention

That's actually true. Same club, different jerseys, right ?

Only a fool will fight for APC or PDP. That's exactly the message I was trying to pass in this song.

Na Dem Dem!.

Listen to ''Na Dem Dem'' on youtube.

Enjoy your electricity and good roads.
