Pres.GEJ Wants Age Limit for Presidency Abolished



President Goodluck Jonathan on Saturday at an international youth summit organised by the Nigerian Young Professionals Forum, made an instance for the amendment of the nation's constitution to abolish age limit for anyone aspiring to become the President of the country. 

The Constitution currently stipulates 40 years as the minimum age for anyone seeking the greatest office in the land. But Jonathan said age limit was a discrimination against Nigerian youths who he explained have most of the wherewithals to lead  the country.

The President said:

 “The youths have no limit in terms of number and capacity to lead this country to greatness. The only limit is that for youths to contest as President, they need to be 40. If Gen. Yakubu Gowon was able to rule this country at 32, there is no reason why the youths should not be given the chance. I think what the youth should do now is to come together, and I will support you, and take a bill to the National Assembly to amend some discriminatory provisions of the constitution in terms of age.’’
