Yea Dan, you’re right about age, but at 25, we can still play huge role at state assembly levels
You’re right Sam, But how do you think we can deal with that when the keep them hungry tool is still viable and continuously used as a tool to win elections
Nigerians don’t value excellence, they prefer who doesn’t have certificate but can give them vague promises and throw some few naira around that can’t even pay for 3 square meals. It’s unfortunate. We are good at recycling old and brainless leaders, imagine a nation whose president is uneducated, chief justice only studied Arabic law, never attended law school, so it’s so unfortunate.
Nigeria has become “A DEN OF THIEVES”.
In Nigeria, we select , we don’t elect and a 25 yr old lady is not eligible to contest for the Senate or house of rep.
