MY QUESTION TO NIGERIAN YOUTHS... Awolowo (37),Akintola(36), Ahmadu Bello(36), Belewa (37), Okotie-Eboh (27), Enahoro (27), led the struggle for independence in Nigeria after the death of Macaulay, only Zik was 42 at that time. In 1996, the first coup was led by Kaduna Nzeogwu (29), and countered by Murtala Muhammad (28), Theophilus Danjuma (28), Babangida (25), Nanven Garba (23), Sani Abacha (23), Shehu Musa Yaradua (23), and brought into power Gowon (23), Ojukwu (33), Obasanjo (29), Buhari (24). Most of the military administrators who governed the states under the successive military regimes, most of whom are governors now were under 30 years.The brief democratic dispensation which interjected the military regimes also saw the house of Representatives in particular populated by majority of members under 30s as well as some senators.Under 30s were not also in short supply in Appointments E.g M.T.Mbu-foreign Affairs Minister at (23), and Pat Utomi - presidential adviser at (27) etc. Now: (1) why is it that this age bracket is today still sleeping on 3 seater chairs in their parents houses? , (2) why is it that this age bracket is still collecting pocket money from their parents? , (3) why is it that this age bracket is still writing jamb? (4) why is it that this age bracket is today sagging their trousers? , (5)why is it that this age bracket is still searching for jobs?
