2023: Yahaya Bello, The Youth And The Dark Horse Option!

Escalating the above further, one may not be far from the truth to submit that the impact Governor Bello has made in terms of inclusive youth participation in governance at the highest level in just six years of being in power surpasses the achievements of some other political grandees in the country who lay claim to have also empowered the youth in whatever capacity.

The good thing about Governor Bello‘s knack for the youth is that most of the young men and women serving in various capacities in the state were barely known until now. None of them had a godfather rooting for him as the Governor himself had no godfather until he happened on Kogi State from relative obscurity. He only has God, the father and his reliance on determination and hard work as the pathway to success.

Apart from his enduring belief in the youth as the catalyst who can drive development and help a government accomplish its mission and vision for the period of its tenancy, the Governor is also gender-friendly. Since 2015 till date, the Secretary to the State Government has been a woman, which is quite unprecedented in the annals of the history of the state since it was created and has traversed both military and civilian administrations.

The Governor at the beginning of his administration also had a female chief press secretary, another first feat for him. His current aide-de-camp, against the usual convention, is a woman. Several women are also serving as special assistants, commissioners, advisers and even local government administrators.

Anyway, 2023 is drawing nigh and Nigerians have a choice to make between those who continue to regulate the youth who constitute about 60 per cent of the country‘s active population to the background and women, who are primed as builders of the nation and those who give the combined forces of youth and women a sense of participatory belonging in the scheme of things. In all honesty, it should not be a difficult choice to make. The tomorrow we all crave is here.
