Mr president,what are your plans for Nigerian youths?

Nigeria the giant of Africa with so much courage but no wisdom. Many have come and gone, but you remain, if I may ask? Remain as what?. A land blessed with natural resources they say, natural resources that the people cannot benefit from.

They’ve always been saying ‘’great people, great nation’’, but to complete it, I will say ‘’great people, great nation, weak leaders’’. Before the just concluded election, Jonathan has been the Nigeria eye for transformation but never knew he has no definition of the foundation of what he wants for Nigeria.

If Jonathan and his adviser’s don’t have better budget and cannot differentiate youth from adult, how can they differentiate a nation that is stagnate or a nation experiencing CHANGE.

The president and his adviser’s should go back to their board and ask themselves if they have affected the lives of the youth after the lunch meeting held at the Eko hotel and suit on the 24th of may 2011.

President Goodluck Jonathan, what are your plans for Nigerian youth?...............
