YOUNG MEN WITH BALD HEADS

Some old folks in society have taken the youth for granted for far too long. I will not be surprised if the youth wake up in arms very soon to protest against 'oppressors' rule'. The youth have displayed across board and across political parties that they are capable of handling every position handed them. A few abuses here and there can not be ruled out just as it is amongst the elders.

In Prof. J. E. A. Mills' government,the youth have not been left out. Their services have been utilized to the barest maximum. Kudos to the learned Professor for trusting in the youth; assuring up and coming ones to put in their best for recognition. Some of us have taken up the challenge to do our best for the development of mother Ghana. "We are all involved in building our motherland" In response to the call to Ghana youth to arise for their country which demands their devotion.

Those who have taken up positions at their early stages have not disgraced the youth of Ghana in any way at all. Talk about Child Rights International; a great organization for child right issues and you can only say the youthful Bright Appiah is not doing badly. Kafs Academy is another example where Kafui is not doing badly. In the NPP, Sammy Awuku, Sammy Jinapor and co are doing well. In NDC, Alex, Idaya, Betty Mensah, Hope and co are great guys. In government, Hon. Ablakwa, Agyenim-Boateng, Bissiw and a lot more are wonderful.

"Watch the young men with bald heads they are full of matured minds" Allotey Jacobs made this statement on Peace fm today and I was satisfied with myself because I fit into his expression. You can imagine how the feeling is when the reason for disqualification or attempted disqualification in any intellectual context is age. One MP asked his constituents; 'will you sit down for such a small boy to be your MP?' Imagine this, if the 'small boy' will perform better, why not?

I am calling on the youth who have coiled into their shells because some 'oldies' are not allowing them to prove their capabilities to come out of those shells to compete for their places in society. The world has moved from where uncles come to beg you for work to where you have to prepare a winning CV, search for vacancy and still pass an interview. Our uncles and aunties now have little or no influence. We must wake up from our slumber to face the world.

We are matching on to victory. Join us.
