JOIN POLITICS AND STOP COMPLAINING ABOUT BAD LEADERSHIP–OSINBAJO TO YOUTHS

The Vice-President of Nigeria Prof Yemi Osinbajo has urged Nigeria youths to join politics instead of sitting back to complain about bad leadership in the country.

Osinbajo gave this advice at the emerging political leaders’ summit which held in Abuja on Wednesday, 22th November.

Represented by Babafemi Ojudu, special adviser to the president on political affairs, Osinbajo said it was not enough for youth to always complain.

He said the youths needed to break the status quo by taking the chance to be elected and create the transformation needed.

“Youth have a challenge in their hands for the future of our country; so, I advise you not to sit down and fold your hands and be lamenting over bad leadership or politicians,” he said.

Get down to business, organise and do something to become elected political youths; after all, Enahoro became a leader in this country at the age of 23 and later moved a motion for the nation’s independence at the age of 27.

“The leaders there today will vacate the place tomorrow so if you the youths don’t start preparing today by getting mentored and learning the ropes. there is no way you will perform very well if the mantle of leadership falls on you tomorrow; so there is need for you to go in there and participate.”

Osinbajo however, cautioned the youth not to expect that from the day they start participating in politics, they would become the president of Nigeria immediately.

BREAKING: MUGABE FINALLY RESIGNS

Wild jubilation broke out among MPs and on the streets of Zimbabwe when Mudenda told the House. The 93-year-old Mugabe president resigned in a letter he submitted to parliament hours after his party and Zimbabwe’s ruling party, Zanu-PF, presented a motion to impeach him. Mugabe had been accused of allowing his wife Grace, 52, hijack power and being too old to rule. The Parliament’s leader said he was working on legal issues that would enable vice president, Emmerson ‘The Crocodile’ Mnangagwa, to take over within 48 hours. Mugabe’s sudden downfall lies in rivalry between members of Zimbabwe’s ruling elite over who will succeed him, rather than popular protests against his rule by the people. The army seized power after Mugabe sacked Mnangagwa, the ruling party’s favourite to succeed him. The move was perceived as a path to the presidency for his wife, who is widely hated for her lavish lifestyle report says.

Walter Carrington (OFR), a former American Ambassador to Nigeria, has said that the failure of Africa to fully realise its potential has earned it scorn rather than respect in the comity of nations.
