#NotTooYoungToRun: A Case For Values Not Age-Kamo Sende

Kamo Sende

There are a crop of people with whom sooner than later we would have to halt fraternity.

This crop have erroneously held "tenaciously" to the untrue believe that the #NotTooYoungToRun campaign umbrella will cover them and the broom of their youthfulness will sweep away their existing sins: this crop lie to themselves.

As a person, the campaign for me is one of values and those who have been part of looting our system, those who have been part of the uncommon rot of our polity, those who are morally bankrupt and unworthy of a moral loan, those who have feasted their irritating bellies to blossom on our common patrimony and have failed to apologize and or atone for their sins have no place in the campaign we proclaim.

If we must change a system then we must tell ourselves the truth.

Age is not the only prerequisite to launch a revolution: it is not even a necessity; values are.

The young people we want are the virgins.

Those who are virgins either by association and conduct or by "revirginization".

We would however not patronize harlots jumping from one angle to the other, returning to the beautiful tables carved from our monies to sip coffee bought with our wealth and laugh irritatingly with our "unapologetical" oppressors;

If you know a man young in age whose favorite comrades and models are in the league of our oppressors; tap his shoulder and tell him he is "too old to run". He is what we elect to phase out.

The worst set of men are those who cannot decide where their true loyalty lies.
