I am up with this construct to first of all appreciate the 8th
National Assembly of the Federal Republic of Nigeria ably led under the
Leadership of a Distinguished and Seasoned Senator Dr Bukola Saraki the
Senate President who has legislatively and remarkably done well for
himself and the good people of Nigeria whether by omission or
commission.
No doubt his political pedigree and experiential leadership in Governments cannot be overemphasized or taken away from him.
We
are strengthened by your legislative acumen and Characterization
putting us on the map of Hope for Nigeria though the Cow ran away but
you cut the tail for the Nigerian Youths of which we heartily celebrate
as we hope to get the whole Cow someday. As a father, you've given to
your children what they requested having Maturity and responsibility in
Mind .So in life ,you will always receive what you ask.
Since
we've asked whether rightly or wrongly, answers to our petition is
already granted with all pleasure. So, we happily welcome our latest
wife with love but of which we don't know yet how this our beloved wife
can be romanced.
It is ideal that the floor is opened for contest whether we go by the David or Goliath Approach.
The
truth is Nigeria is overdue for total overhauling of which this present
bill is a wake up call. With a sincere heart of gratitude, i am moved
to say thank you Distinguished Senate President et'al .
On a second thoughts,this is my humble disposition and submission.
While
we've welcomed the bill, please permit me to say to our youths that it
is not enough to say #NotTooYoungToRun, we must take responsibilities on
Nation Building to further demonstrate our high sense of Patriotism.
Distinguished
Senators, we still have some fundamental National issues which needed
to be addressed ,if we must make significant progress as a people or a
Nation. These problems include many but few highlighted here;
#NotTooYoungToRun: Nigerian Senate passes bill to amend age requirement to run for office
1.The
Need for Value System Reconnection.:The present state of values
depreciation particularly amongst our youths calls for urgent
attention.We need more avenues for increase in orientation and
reorientation through various adoption and implementation of Nationwide
programmes. Am aware of the the Change begin with me Mantra of the
Federal Government but not efficacious even at the grassroots level.
Good thought but poor implementation.
if we must reconnect fast to our Values in order to heal our societal ills ,then reawaken from our poorness is now.
2.High
Rate of Unemployment Amongst our Youths. It is pathetic,worrisome and
Pitiful that our able bodied young men and Ladies who are willing and
ready to work but cannot find any job to do after many years from
institutions of learning
Today,Sizeable figures of our youths are
unemployed . Sir,you can decode our message without or needless to play
with figures for you to be abreast about the present realities of the
Nigerian State of unemployment.
Based on our relationship with the
grassroots via our ongoing campaign project against social vices such
as (Drug Abuse) in Nigeria especially amongst our youths through our
initiative,(SILEC Initiatives), a public outcry is done on us to
therefore direct our collective concern to the Law Making Apex Body to
act prerogatively on this matter of discourse to device solutions to
this age Long problem so as to help increase the economic capacity of
our youths.
At our end ,we are working harder to compliment the efforts of the Government to salvage the situation.
To
our youths,our #NotTooYoungToRun voices is very good but our voices to
be empowered economically is Better. It is when we are distinguished in
our various economic endeavours that Power Seeking will then be Sweet
,Meaning and Absolute.
Of what use of a knife that cannot cut yam?.Of what use of a head that cannot wear cap?.
Don't
forget to remember that the mighty are very much around the political
space with their children in foreign lands gaining all forms of
empowerment.The Old have more cooperation and network than our able
youths.
#NotTooYoungToRun: At 35 years, you can now run to become President in Nigeria
How
many of us the youth,support one another to succeed without pains? Or
give support to any one on Nation building projects. My personal
experiences and Narrative for 7years now from building projects in
Nigeria trying to seek Youth support will shock you . Even picking one's
calls or response to messages, a nightmare .We cannot win with these
Attitude. The synergy must be right.
You think it will be easy for
Power to be relinquished to you? Without working harder?. We need
economic empowerment for #NotTooYoungToRun bill can make that tremendous
impact. You cannot run when you are hungry. Neither can any good laugh
comes from empty stomach.
As we feed our brain , let's also make more efforts to feed our stomach .
For
we to avoid singing hard i know as a song, let's our feeding level be
at par at least. You will be reminded of this #Notooyoungtorun bill, One
day that ,it is you ,same youths that fought for it.
Let's make Nigeria Better and Greater.!
Will
Youth Empowerment Bill be a bad idea ?For me , I Say No. I Support
Youth Empowerment Bill #YEB Our Senators are blessed already.
God
Bless the Federal Republic of Nigeria. I remain Sunny Irakpo,a Patriotic
Nigerian ,and A Drug Abuse Free and Youth Advocate...
