The much anticipated 3rd Mike Omotosho Annual Lecture took centre stage at the prestigious Yardua Centre Abuja with the presence of high profile personalities of diverse intellectual background and orientation who x-rayed the theme of the lecture in a most educating and enriching discourse. Former Governor of Cross River State Donald Duke mounted the podium as a keynote speaker following the opening remark of the convener and chairman of Labour party Dr. Mike Omotosho who officially kick started the event . The lead discussants comprising Japhet Omojuwa, ‎Love Idoko, Ahmed Buhari, Aisha Augie- Kuta, Linus Okorie, Annie Essienette and Amina Bello did justice to the topic " Millennials As Protagonists In Nation Building" with critical analysis and contemporary references while popular anchor of Osasu TV show, Osasu Igbinedion classically moderated the discussions. 

‎According to Imo state Governorship aspirant and leadership expert, Linus Okorie, the young people are hungry for mentorship, content, competence and value as such there is a need for serious youth development to prepare them for nation building, as the challenge is the leadership deficit capital. 

A fellow panelist and Presidential aspirant Ahmed Buhari added that experience to give good leadership does not need to be political as the focus should be on comparative advantage. In his Words " If people are not hungry they will have no reason to fight, Nigerians must start thinking of creating jobs and ensure youth participation in governance from 2019"
‎
‎SSA To Kebbi State Government on New Media, Aisha Augie- Kuta buttressed the theme from the angle of collective participation and assessment using photography skill to create dialogue and tell story between the government and the people " We are all involved in politics and it affects all we do" she added.
‎
The programme which was powered by Mike Omotosho foundation lived up to its billing with the amazing imput and presentation of popular social media analyst Jephet Omojuwa who was of the opinion that the conversation is not about who is wrong or who is right. That the youth do not stand a better chance in political leadership in the forthcoming election " we have 13th months to election, we are the biggest millennials in history in 2019 who can vote, it's not an election circle reality. For the youths, nothing can fundamentally change in 2019 because we have lost it, in truth, if we want power in 2019 we should have started long before now" 

In disecting the theme of the lecture, popular TV personality Love Idoke highlighted the need for youths to be focussed. She said they should be the drivers of change because a lot of young people start something without finishing, as one is remembered by what he finishes and not what he started. According to her " focus eliminates distraction and most youth limitation is lack of focus for your location can not limit you to maximising your potentials" 

The panelists ended their introductory discourse with the presentation of young entrepreneur Annie Essienette ‎who believe that we want to be millennials that compete in global economy as attention to self development is what is needed. "There is a need for paradigm shift for meaningful conservation to be trusted with leadership. Social media and the importance of changing everything about our educational curriculum" 

The highly interactive and intellectually entertaining Lecture was wrapped up with ‎Book Presentation/ cake cutting, followed by award recognitions to some distinguished persons like Donald Duke, Sulaiman Abubakar Gumi, Mrs Kamba Rumbidzai, Amb. Chiadikaobi Charles Chukwu and Barr. Julie Okah- Donle. The 3rd Mike Omotosh‎o annual Lecture held on 14th January, 2018 was anchored by Ben 200 and Stella Odiase.

Nice initiative

With social media Analyst - Japhet Omojuwa

Cross section of the audience

Great

The best bet for the likes of Donald Duke to wrest power from the APC is to convince the 77 other parties (APC, PDP and APGA are excluded) to merge into a big formidable party with a progressive ideology. Thereafter, Duke can join the party and run for president on its platform.

You cannot even make any any meaningful intellectual engagement

This one don dey show eeem self...Omojuwa nah thunder go visit am.

Donald duke is one of the few Nigerian governors with a good track record.

Calaba would be much better if he was still governor.

Youths all the way.....

SETTING THE RECORDS STRAIGHT
Romeo Sunny wrote:
1. Even the great critic OBJ publicly told
the world that GMB is an upright man.
2. Not many people know that his 1st
daughter is married to an Igbo man from
Anambra.
3. He exempted Christians from
performing
duty on Sundays. “When his Muslim
soldiers asked him to exempt them from
duty on Friday, he told them the bible says
Christians should rest on the 7th day, the
Muslims should show him where the
Koran
says they should rest on Fridays.
4. As Head of State he slashed the number
of Muslim going on pilgrimage by 50%.
5. His driver and cook for the past 10+
years are Christians yet some uninformed
Nigerians say he is a bigot.
6. It is a pity that some people failed to
understand that PDP deliberately
capitalised on the gullibility of Nigerians to
paint him black. This they did in order to
keep their loot and ensure that he never
gets the opportunity to send them to gaol.
How many Nigerians would hold the
appointment of government, minister of
petroleum, PTF chairman and head of state
yet don’t own a house in Abuja?
7. In the last 12 years, he has not gone for
pilgrimage in Mecca.
8. Love him, hate him, you cannot take his
integrity away from him.
9. Well done Gen Muhammadu Buhari. You
have stood the test of time and character
with a swagger. It is time we set the
records straight.
10. No wonder, Gov. Akpabio told Obj: "we
have messed up, don't leave us alone, I
don't want to go to jail and my children
are
too young".
11. Sadly, these are people Nigerians
celebrate as good leaders; those that have
messed up and don't want to go to jail.
12. Nigerians are like someone who give
kudos to a thief for robbing him of all his
possessions.
13. We can decide today to vote Buhari or
continue with those who have "messed
Nigeria up", but Buhari will go down in
history as the greatest servant who has
consistently offered himself to serve
Nigeria.

U see your lies? Buhari has no house in Abuja? Did u see his asset declaration form he filled in 2015? He is not corrupt, can you tell Nigerians where his son got 115m naira he spent on two power bikes ? Pounds and dollars are virtually flowing in his residence that was why a small boy like Yusuf could access over a hundred million naira just for power bike.

The lies you told us in 2014 that made them voted Buhari won't work in 2019. At least, those who weren't born in 1984 could see for themselves now that Buhari is synonymous with failure and he is a never-do-well of a man. Keep your lies, keep your filthy integrity and warped uprightness, baba is a damage goods and we won't buy him again.

Hmmm, all these people coming out, the question is will apc leave aso rock come 2019? Those men are ready to do anything to retain power.

Who is the woman with a red jacket?

The best thing dat can ever happen is for Nigeria to secceed.Gadaffi said it and was condemned.i am saying it again.there is no way we can live together in peace.any initiative of d youth dat is not tend towards d division of dis country is a mistake from d youths.lets think twice
