Prof. Wole Soyinka says : 

'WHERE DID WE GO WRONG? 

WAKE UP NIGERIAN YOUTHS!'~~~ 

"Awolowo was 37 years, 

Akintola 36, 

Ahmadu Bello 36, 

Balewa 34, 

Okotie-Eboh 27 

furthermore, Enahoro 27 

Furthermore, they drove the battle for Nigeria Independence 

after 

the passing of Macaulay. Just Zik was 42 at the time! 

In 1966, the main military overthrow was driven by K 

Nzeogwu who was 29 years and countered by 

M.Mohammed 28, 

T. Danjuma 28, 

I. Babangida 25, 

J. Garba 23, 

Sani Abacha 23, 

furthermore, M. Yar'adua 23, 

Furthermore, brought into power 

Y. Gowon 32, 

Ojukwu 33, 

Obasanjo 29, 

Furthermore, Buhari 24! 

The vast majority of the military governors who administered the 

states under the progressive military systems were 

under 30 years. 

Additionally, the concise vote based allotment which 

contributed the military interregnums additionally observed a few 

Congresspersons and individuals from the House of 

Agents, specifically, populated by people 

under 30! 

Under 30 were additionally not hard to find with 

arrangements - we have instances of 

MT Mbu who turned into Nigeria's Foreign Affairs 

Clergyman at 23 and Pat Utomi who turned into a 

Government Adviser at 27 

Et cetera! 

Presently: Why is it that practically this age section is 

today as yet resting in 3-seater seats in their 

guardians' homes? 

How can it be that this age section is today still 

gathering pocket cash from their folks? 

How can it be that this age section is today as yet composing 

Frame? 

How can it be that this age section today still 'sag' their 

pants? 

How can it be that this age section is today still 

scanning for employments and not yet wedded? 

How can it be that this age section is today never again 

qualified to try and be pioneers of youth wings of 

ideological groups? 

How can it be that this age section is today so meek? 

For what reason is this age section today unequipped for encouraging 

itself? 

How can it be that this age section is today banned from 

notwithstanding trying to certain political workplaces? 

How can it be that this age section is today 

weakened, reluctant, unfit and unequipped for 

posing inquiries? 

GOD BLESS NIGERIA!"
