Comrade Rahman Adewale is one of the activists
cum politician who is advocating for youth to
take over the mantle of power come 2019 general
election. He is the Chairman of the Liberation
Movement Party (LM), Lagos state chapter.
According to the Chartered Accountant and tax
expert, the stage is over crowded, which means
some of the old bloc needs to step aside for the
younger ones to take over the centre stage. In his
words, he said “What we are saying to the old
bloc is that the stage is now over crowded. They
need to begin to step down for the youth to take
over. The same way those they took power from
stepped down for them some 30 years ago, they
too should step down now. They need to leave
when the ovation is the loudest because if they
leave now, we would salute them But when they
refuse to leave, then we cannot stop advocating
for revolution.†“This is the high time to tell those
old politicians to get off the stage for the new
blood to take over because majority of them were
like our age when they took over power and some
of them have been there for over 30 years, It is
time for them to leave the stage†The chairman
emphasized. When asked about the party
presidential candidate, he said “The first thing
that set Dr. Chris David apart is that, he is a
futurist. There is no course for futurist in Nigeria
But he did the course in America. And he had a
doctorate degree in it. What does that mean? It
means an ability for foresight. An ability to look
deep down into the future to identify the way to
go. And in doing that, our party and the
presidential candidate, did a long stretch of
research about ten countries of the world who are
successful. We did a research in what is making
them to be a successful and prosperous nations
and we identify values that shape them. And
those values is what we have imbibed to shape
the future of Nigeria, so that we can have
equality. When we have equality then prosperity
will be our lots as a nation. Of course we have
our value of meritocracy, excellent, integrity, rule
of law and others.â€
Meanwhile, Comrade Rahman condemned the
lingering anomalies in the society in the coming
polls while he admonish the older politicians to
Step aside for the younger ones to take over as
they are the true liberation army.
