Top Most Developed Countries Are Led By The "Old Generation" by GoodGovernance: 12:10pm On Feb 05, 2018 |
There is so much illusion in the land.Many believe that our leadership problem has a lot to do with generational shift! Moreover,Nigeria had a fair share of quite youthful leaders, both in the long and immediate past,yet we are still where we are. According to investopedia, the top 10 most developed countries are(their ages were googled and written beside): 1.USA President is 70+ 2.China 65+ 3.Japan 84+ 4.Germany 61+ 5. United Kingdom 62 6. India 65+ 7. France 41 8. Brazil 77 9. Italy 76 10.Canada 47 Ages of leaders of other countries include: Ghanaian President is 70+ Thailand 96+ Korean President is 70+ Kuwait leader is 70+ Mauritius president is 85! Singapore 63 South Africa 70+ Spain 60+ Saudi Arabi 70+ Tunisia 92! Fact Check: Good governance is not a direct function of age. https://www.investopedia.com/articles/investing/022415/worlds-top-10-economies.asp 3 Likes 1 Share |

which kind rubbish be this one na,how many of them met the economy in a mess, those top countries already have a system in place, they might be old but they are educated and have a foresight on how to run the economy and how to be productive..some leaders you placed above are not up to that age. 4 Likes |

Some of this countries mentioned are already over developed and have an almost perfect working system that even a blind man can lead them. Old men like buhari couldn't create positive impact in Nigeria's development when they were young I wonder if it is now that the brain have become obsolete that they will create positive impacts for future generations. 1 Like |

Shegzy8: You are a typical Nigerian.Not surprised.Always shifting the goal post. It is no longer age,but education. Stupidity is when you think education is all about obtaining university education and thinking PMB IS NOT EDUCATED. Gej and yardua were younger and univ graduates,did they turn Nigeria into eldorado? Now I eat local rice with pride and my electricity power here is vitrtually 24/7 Etc etc. Mumus are always driven by the loudest noises! 5 Likes |

Doyin2:What is this one saying...the system itself is wrong so bringing obama or mandela here will still give same result..gej might be educated but so many other factors also makes one a leader, you cant just bring in some one that isnt enlighened on how things work...nigeria needs some one that is educated with the right moral, vision and zero tolerance for corruption, i voted the old man in 2015 bit now realised he is damn clueless 4 Likes 1 Share |

Shegzy8: Now the problem has shifted to the system Anyway to some extent. And which other tested Nigerian can you mention that has the right education,morel,vision and zero tolerance for corruption? The election is atround he corner,so its very appropriate to start mentioning names,perhaps you could help others to push Nigeria forward. |

GoodGovernance:Even if i say, that doesn't meant they will contest..most politicians have promised heaven on earth to nigerians, its really pathetic looking at our political system and the kind of politics we play....imagine pdp criticizing apc when they also did nothing than ruin the country since 1999, they only know the right things when criticizing oppositions.. some nigerians believe in "if you dont give me money" i wont vote for you.havent we even wondered why they spend billions of dollars on election if there is no motive...how will non politicians who invested in the campaign get there money back...its so sad been a nigerian at this stage 1 Like |

Op Your Own mumuness is more than that of Sarrki. Can you compare any of the aforementioned Countries to Nigeria in terms of development and infrastructure wise? If you can't then kindly remain mute. Nigeria needs a new breed of leaders, youthful and visionary leaders at that. 4 Likes 1 Share |

Agimor: I have done my own research,why can't you do yours and tell us that the great developers of countries like USA,Singapore,China etc,were not "old" generation. How old were Jimmy Carter,Senior Gorge Bush,Ronald Regan ,etc,? How old was Yu Chiang Yu of Singapore How old was chairman mao of china? Etc .Etc. How old were Gowon,Babangida, GEJ and Yaradua? Nigeria have had fair share of young leaders,but where are we today? The fact is constant: Good governance is not a function of age. Let us demand good governance,not youthful governance!

I agree with you..Nigerian youths are not ready for leadership position..We need the right old man to rule nigeria till we are ready. |

Shegzy8:. They are my bro, infact majority of dem are about to hit 70yrs. Our problem is not age related rather d greed in our DNA is something else. Presently we have so many young men as governors of different states but are dey performing?? The answer is no. Nigeria matter tire me jare. |

ZorGBUooeh: Not really. Old or young,the emphasis should be on capacity,character,competence and track record. It is very disgusting demanding for change of leadership,based on age. |
