Democracy & Governance
Nigeria’s talented, idealistic and intelligent youths -By UmmuKulsum Abubakar Ibrahim
Some of our youth have lost hope and become despondent; others engaged in bad and illicit activities such as thuggery, drugs, prostitution, cyber crimes e.t.c
Nigeria is blessed with youth that have great ideas, intelligent and potentials but unfortunately we do not have leaders or government that have the foresight and political will to invest on them and transform them into great assets that would bring about positive growth and development to this country.
Many talented youth are doing great in their respective field of endeavour to come up with innovations that would boost the country’s economy but the authority concern doesn’t help them, nor show interest in their activities.
Where are the Nigeria leaders that always shout that youths are the leaders of tommorow?
When is the tomorrow; and when are you going to start giving that opportunities to youth?
Some of our youth have lost hope and become despondent; others engaged in bad and illicit activities such as thuggery, drugs, prostitution, cyber crimes e.t.c
I am using this medium to call on our government and leaders at all level to as a matter of urgency to intensify efforts in investing on youth, as no country would achieve a meaningful development without building the capacity of their youth.
