Nigeria is a country made up of different people within different age ranges and for almost 25 years now, we've been led by the older group of people leaving the youths on the street unemployed. Most of the youths interested in politics go to university, study courses related to this field and are still not given opportunities to show or practice what they've been taught. The voice of the youths needs to be heard. We are used to the saying "children are the leaders of tomorrow" but yet tomorrow doesn't seem to come. The position of the youths is not on the streets, not at the secretary's table, not in the shops but in the government offices. Nigeria needs her children to come out and show what they know and are not to be kept aside. Voices need to be heard. A new era has to begin!" "It's a fact that Nigeria has an extremely high amount of young people constituting its population. This makes it kind of obvious that we have a part to play in the rebranding of the nation by whatever means at our disposal. Look at it this way; there is so much skill and undeveloped talent embedded in so many youths. We just need to tap into this and channel it into improving the state of the country There's a need to take the initiative and develop these skills, without necessarily waiting for others to tell us to. By doing this, you prove to yourself and to others that you have what it takes to be a useful part of the society. The change is now. We are the change." page 56
