Youth in Today’s Leadership; An All-Time Investment

Youth in Today’s Leadership; An All-Time Investment.

The younger the heads and minds of people in government, the more progressive the ideas, the better the governance.

Johnson (2008) stated that the Youth is one of the greatest assets that any nation can have. Not only are they legitimately regarded as the future leaders, they are potentially and actually the greatest investment for a country’s development.

The world is tilting towards the youth now in terms of genuinely democratic governance globally, devoid of any sentiment. Elderly officials are bereft of new ideas on governance and out of tune with contemporary global practices in government. – Apeji Onesi

The inclusion of young people and youth in the political process is not only beneficial in the short term but also provides the basis for strong political engagement in the future.

The youths can ensure better leadership in Nigeria by virtue of their fresh and contemporary ideas about governance, which they can easily learn from other nations being successfully governed by young leaders. However, they must first purge themselves of all the negative traits they learnt from the present crop of old leaders in the country. There must be a vacuum to allow the fresh initiatives take root. – Olumuyiwa Olorunsomo

The younger the mind and muscles the better in today’s world of positively exciting competition. A stitch in time saves nine. – Apeji Onesi
