2015 Imo youths and vacancies in Imo State House of Assembly; Warning to Political parties.

2015: IMO YOUTHS. 

2015 Imo youths and vacancies in Imo State House of Assembly; Warning to Political parties. Youths constitute 63% of the voting population in Imo State nay Nigeria. They are the active force in engineering electoral system. Used as electoral officers by electoral body, as party agents and booth army by political parties. 
They are used negatively by politicians for ballot snatching, violence act, etc. But can 2015 produce a difference ? Political forecasts and preponderance of opinions suggest that youths want to take 2015 election by storm thereby challenging statuesque. A look at Imo state house of Assembly and the warnings to political parties. Our Political barometer shows that by 2015, lot of vacancies exist in the legislative chamber due to members who have served two terms in office and obviously will not be returning back, there are also others who will like to go for higher offices and those who will be affected by the zoning or sharing formula in their constituencies thereby barred from seeking a Re-election. While u can't rule out those who are lame ducks in the hallowed chamber and therefore did not perform creditably. 
It is on this not we appreciate the vacancies and urge political parties to do thorough job to fish out sound, credible, intelligent and efficient youths in our locales and sponsor them to Imo state house of Assembly come 2015 election. In doing that, they will maximize the abundant youth populations and energy to ensure electoral victory. Anything at the contrary, the youth will have no option than to go for registered but none popular parties to launch themselves to the hallowed chamber and evoke a revolutionary political reforms that may have the character of retiring many political parties, Godfathers, and vested interest.The change we need is now. Youths wear the shores of political misrule, bear the grunts of unemployment and general poverty in the land. They are therefore in better position to effect positive changes and reforms that will transform our environment and create job, curb social menace and violence acts. Lets the youth be given a chance.
