THE KICKING TIME FOR YOUTH

The arguments concerning the need to have youths as leaders in modern government is no more endless as the current leaders also commends on the effort of Youth but, the idea is left on the side of the youth who will actually see themselves as true leaders of tomorrow by making it possible not by saying.  Youth are seen as backbone of the Nation that can change the future of the society with their well being and courageous behavior. 

"You will agree with me, there is a linkage or/and intercourse between youth and national development. This intercourse is not only symbiotically connected; but, one depends on the other for its sustenance. Therefore, the role of youth on national development can not be over emphasis. The wheel of development of any country lies on the shoulder of how productivity and creativity the youthful populations are. The youth in any society are the engine of growth and development; because, they provide the labour force for production of goods and service to take effect. And also, are the critical masses of people, whose action and inaction can develop or destroy the hegemonies of their society". Nevertheless, with this, the formulation of Noble Youth Mass Support (NYMSA) will make a great positive change in youth as it has to do with togetherness of Youth for national development. 

According to Obasanjo “We will not transform if we ignore the youths. If we have youths explosion or anger because of lack of opportunity, it will consume all of us. He go further saying 

“The youths need to believe in themselves.

 Part of our problem is that we fail to believe in ourselves. Don’t lose hope, don’t be frustrated. We have a wonderful country and resources". This man is communicating,  is waking the youth. If I may ask, youth are we sleeping? 

Obasanjo is pointing out an important issue here, why do you still tie your success in someone's hand by believe in them for the betterment of your. 

However, Sokoto State governor, Aminu Tambuwal, also said anyone who didn’t see the intrinsic value of the youth had simply never enjoyed the opportunity of working with the youth.

He said: “We cannot keep calling them the leaders of tomorrow without ensuring that we put in place deliberate measures that will aid their quest for public service. “ but,  unfortunately, most of today youth are those who are more interested in other things which are not of useful to them as well as the nation. Youth, is time to give birth to positive ideas, 

be objective, set for yourself what you want to achieve in everything you do and always believe in yourself that yes you can do what others think you cannot do, let people judge you in a way that you will change their expectations towards their belief against you.
