Not Too Young To Run is a campaign which seeks to reduce the age limit as regards running for elected office in Nigeria.
The campaign started in support of bills and motions in Nigeria’s National Assembly sponsored by Tony Nwulu of the House of Representatives and AbdulAziz Nyako in the Senate.
The bill has successfully been passed on to the executive for President’s assent.
Meanwhile, the campaign which is near implementation in Nigeria seeks to reduce the age from:-
For Nigeria’s President from 40 years to 30 years
For State’s Governor from 35 years to 30 years
For Senator’s from 35 years to 30 years
For the House of Representatives from 30 years to 25 years
For State Houses of Assembly from 30 years to 25 years
However, this initiative seems to be a golden opportunity for Nigerian Youths to step into governance and make things happen. It’s about time for youths to take over!
Here is our question for all youths here on Naijaloaded;
Which Political Office would you like to Contest for and What would you do if Elected?
Lets hear from you!
For Me (Makinde):- I will contest for the Post of Lagos State Governor and I will make sure Lagos State Generates his own Electricity and sell to Stake holders within the State. It seems achieving this Great feat is an impossible task for the Federal Government.
What about you?
