Minister of Transportation, Rotimi AmaechiThe Minister of Transportation, Mr Rotimi Amaechi, says Nigeria youths are copying the wrong model of leadership, an act, he notes, may jeopardise their future.
Amaechi made the assertion in an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) on the sidelines of the Future Awards Africa held at the Federal Palace Hotel, Victoria Island, Lagos last Saturday.
He said the youth were not ready yet to embrace a corrupt-free society because they were wrongly orientated by those who were using them for their interest.
“The problem with Nigerian youths is that they just want to take over from the elite but they are not ready to embrace change, they don’t want reform.
“They say that the roles being played by the elite are not satisfactory, but they must be ready to upset the leaders of this country through their ingenuity.
“For example, during our days of activism, we engage government over unfavourable policies and we get headlong even during the military administration.
