A New Party Is Born; Political Hot-heads, Stake Your Claim by DaudaAbu(m): 8:36am On Dec 18, 2016
Are you young, virile and below 55 and also politically savvy?

Do you wish to to see young ideas injected into the nigerian political space?

Then join and stake your claim, in this new party



WHAT WE MUST DO NOW

It is important to give this short briefing. You see, we intend to do things much differently from before, and to learn from the experiences of those who have gone before us. Some ground rules will be entrenched and will soon be codified:

1. We want people who have jobs or businesses, and not 'professional politicians' to vie for offices at all levels.

2. We want to try and limit the ages of those we put forward within constitutional requirements but also below 55. We think that is fair enough. We want young people but we will not rub it in and engage in anti-ageism. We must guard against being seen as unnecessarily exuberant hotheads.

3. We want to promote the involvement of women and young people in politics and administration and so will encourage them to step forward... with their ideas. We believe the best ideas reside in this demographic.

4. Anyone's claim to fame will not be their comments on Facebook or elsewhere, but how much commitment they have shown in growing the party. For now, acquisition of state offices is of paramount importance. Those who will take charge of states must be able to sponsor the rentals and employment of staff for at least one year. Online and offline registration will commence within the week.

5. We want people of modest means in our party; self-made people preferably, with verifiable businesses or careers. We are not after moneybags. We are also not a platform for the perpetuation of poverty and despondency. We shall encourage ALL who choose to join us to get something going. We are fiercely independent and this must show in everything we do.

6. This party is about SACRIFICE. We dont want people who are seeking for quick money and benefits on board. Anyone coming with the mindset of "chop-and-quench", or "kill-and-divide", will not be recognized and will be watched keenly.

7. The political process is fraught with intrigues. We expect to have disrupters, hecklers, agents of detractors and so on. We wish to operate a very open system of camaraderie but we are also aware that it will not be smooth sailing. To that extent, those seen to be deliberately disruptive will be shown the door. We will run a tight ship here. No weak leadership.

The rules will be reviewed from time to time. After we solidify structures we will be governed strictly by our constitution. By all means, this is about making a difference in our country and in the lives of our countrymen and women. Ours is not a vision for immediate benefits but for the future of our great country and its people. It is an effort to try and organize ourselves and break the jinx whereby it is believed that after the frontrunners who have always organized themselves since the colonial days, the subsequent generations cannot. The inability to ORGANISE has got us to a point where our lives are careening out of control, and we are faced with existential issues even as our affairs have been piloted by people who had everything at their behest in their prime.

Our mantra for now is RENEWAL. RENAISSANCE. RESPECT!

Why Young Nigerians Will Thread Thorny Paths To
Leadership


"Youths are leaders of tomorrow", a statement
initiated by some Nigerian politicians to psyche out
Nigerian youths when they obviously know that their
assertion is yet to be realised in all ramifications.

...Majority of the youths ought to have been financially independent and enjoying a sustainable standard of living as obtained in some other sovereign states abroad but unfortunately the reverse is the case in the Nigerian state.

You will rarely find a Nigerian youth who won't
belong to one of these following ridiculous categories...
