Among all the popular sayings, "the youths are the leaders of
tomorrow," seems to be the most popular, and coincedentally the very
deceptive, especially in our own case Nigeria.First of all, tomorrow
is a period of time that does not exist and which nobody will ever
meet.The question now is: when is actually this tomorrow? Because this
saying has been in existence from time immemorial, and up to today the
youths are still said to be leaders of tomorrow. That is why this
country's Government is filled by old men and women with depreciated
reasoning. If you go to the National Assembly, all are as old as
Methuselah. Lecturers in the university just upgraded their retirement
age to 70, and then the youths keep leading tomorrow. Who is deceiving
who? For the fact that tomorrow does not exist,is enough to confirm
this saying, "the youths are the leaders of tomorrow," as a deceit of
the generation. The youths are seen as a group of people with low
grade of reasoning, whose actions and inactions must be meticulously
scrutinized because they mingle with destructive exuberances. They are
seen as people who do not have a role to play in leadership TODAY, and
they were apportioned to lead TOMORROW. Well, this is a clarion call
to the youths to wake from this slumber, and reject this deceptive
assertion. Obi must not die, a boy; rather let him grow and become a
man at least for one day. If we ( youths) must be leaders, then we
must lead today, and not tomorrow, for tomorrow does not exist!!!
