A former Governor of Bauchi State, Mohammed Abubakar, has stated that his generation, including himself, has failed Nigerians.
Mohammed, who spoke on Tuesday at the First Bauchi SDGs Youth Summit 2024, urged Nigerian youths to salvage the economy.
He stated that his generation has failed to provide Nigerians with the kind of leadership they deserve.
“My generation has failed. My generation appears not to have the answers anymore.
“Allah loves Nigeria. That is why every chance he gives to my generation, we take Nigeria to the precipice, and Allah will bring it back. We will take over again and bring it to the precipice, which means doing one thing the same way and expecting a different result. Which some people say is the definition of madness,” he stated.
The Bauchi ex-governor, while disclosing that his investments in the youth populace during his administration were deliberate, noted further, “I deliberately populated my executive council with the youth, and in doing that, I did not pick and choose the sons or daughters of the big shots. I picked youth for their abilities to perform and I encouraged them, knowing fully well that one day, whether I like it or not, I have to quit the stage, and the youths will take over.”
Mohammed warned that leaders should be wary of the future of the country when the youths are not trained to be ready for the leadership roles ahead of them.
