ATIKU: My Youth Minister Will Be Less Than 30Yrs

-
The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) presidential candidate, Alh. Atiku Abubakar, on Monday said his administration will focus on education, job creation, and youth empowerment.

The former vice president made this declaration on Monday during a town hall meeting he had with youths in Lagos. He promised that 40 per cent of the people in his government would be youths while his Minister of Youth would be less than 30 years.

Abubakar said, “I believe in creating jobs and I am creating jobs for the youth." “Our President said the economy is in bad shape and he told the governors it is going to be worse." Is this the kind of government that you want to return to power?

He further stated, “Do you know that in this government, there is no single economist? So, they don’t know how to manage the economy. Our lives, whether young or old, depend on the economy.

“We must invest seriously in education to be able to produce youths that will be beneficial to themselves and the country.”

He said, I am in private sector and I understand how it works. The private needs support and incentive, and that his government would do, creating an enabling environment for them to thrive in order to create more jobs.

Peter Obi, while delivering his speech said, it is important for the Federal Government to invest more in education.

“I want Nigerian youths to listen; do not vote Buhari again. They are giving you N10,000 today, I don’t know anywhere in the world where they give people money in the market the way they are doing now. This is vote-buying,” Obi said.

BETWEEN KNOWLEDGE AND WISDOM

-
One end time prophecy runs through my mind every time I travel to the airport, or pick up a newspaper and read the latest advance in information technology. "But you, Daniel, shut up the words, and seal the book until the time of the end; many shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall increase" ( Daniel:12:4 ). Anyone who travels often has to marvel at the mass of people traveling to every corner of the world every day of the week. One meets all most the same congestion be it at airport or bus terminals. "Many shall run to and fro." Man's Desire for Knowledge Man seems to have been created with an indiscriminate desire to know, and then given the challenge by God of channeling that desire as one of the character-building opportunities of life. God placed in the midst of the garden of Eden a tree which would impart knowledge-good and evil knowledge. You cannot help but wonder if its placement in the garden was to test man. After al...
