Most of the military administrators who governed the states under the successive military regimes were under 30 years.
The brief democratic dispensation which interjected the military interregnums also saw the House of
Representatives in particular populated by majority of members under 30 years as well as some senators. Under 30s were also not in short supply with appointments. Examples of Matthew T. Mbu who became Federal Minister of Labour at 23 and Pat Utomi who became a Presidential Adviser to Shagari at 27
Awolowo (37), Akintola (36), Ahmadu Bello (36) Balewa (34) Okotie-Eboh (27) and Enahoro (27) led the struggle for independence after the death of Macaulay. Only Zik was 42 at that time. In 1966, the first coup was led by: Major Chukwuma Kaduna Nzeogwu (29) and countered by Murtala Mohammed (28), Theophilus Danjuma (28), Babangida (25), Nanven Garba (23), Sani Abacha (23), Shehu Musa Yaradua (23), and brought into power Gowon (32), Ojukwu (33), Obasanjo (29), Buhari (24).. NOW: Why is it that this age bracket is today still "sleeping" in 3 seater chairs in their parents homes
watching T.V all day? Why is it that this age bracket is today still collecting pocket money from their parents? Why is it that this age bracket is today still writing JAMB? Why is it that this age bracket is today still sagging their trousers and wouldn't act and behave as responsible adults? Why is it that this age bracket is today no longer qualified to even be leaders of youth wings of political parties? Why is it that this age bracket is today barely capable of feeding itself? Why is it that this age bracket is today barred by law from even aspiring to all but one Political Office? Why is it that this age bracket is today still searching for jobs? Why is it that this age bracket is today so docile? Why is it that this age bracket is today incapacitated, unwilling, unable and incapable of asking questions or moving reverberating motions? Huh?
And these are some of the reactions he got...funny,but not funny if you know what i mean.
