We will want to make this very clear, to all those who still think giving the youth and the younger generation chance to lead is not right. Aside the fact that the old generals (OBJ, IBB) are only stating the very obvious and inevitable need for this shift, For our country and continent to move forward we need this generation of youth to rise to power, because all through the last 2 industrial revolutions, Nigeria and Africa has not been able to catch up, we missed the first industrial revolution that started all the way back in the 17th & 18th century, ok let’s say it is not so bad we missed that because a lot of other countries in the world like China, Japan and Singapore didn’t catch up with that one, the 2nd industrial revolution came, a lot of countries with strong leaders got their countries and continent started, we saw Asia doing great, till date we have not been able to develop our steel, a technology of 18th century?, we are still battling how to harness our coal and textile industry, something, the West has mastered since 1800s. All through second industrial revolutions till date our leaders have been irresponsible and visionless, stealing our wealth and allowing our best brain go develop other countries.

Now we are heading towards the 3rd industrial revolution which is the digital revolution, are we still going to be left behind? We dont expect, this old men who cant even open an email lead us into this revolution, If we are not going to be left behind, then it will only take the digital youth of this age, the smart phone, social media gurus, the IT tech generation to lead Nigeria into this revolution.

My fellow Nigerians, Youths in particular, this is the time to think of the future, think of tomorrow, think beyond stomach infrastructure and support young intelligent people to lead us in this journey of revolution.

Thank You

God bless the Awakened Nigerian Youths

God bless the Federal Republic of Nigeria.
