Many thoughts ran through my mind as I peruse through your post, indeed I believe we can, but its obvious that we aren't willing to, the same youths crying of unemployments and bad governance are still selling their votes for a penny not even worth two days meal, who are these political thugs? Who are those running the campaign for the oldies? Who are those making the noise about them? Like you mentioned young fresh intelligents minds are out there buh not as rich as the oldies to buy off the youths and their votes, you know the system if you dont buy rice and wrapper for the women, throw money around the youths, youre even serious about politics yet, so whose going to support you. I sometimes went out with my Boss to survey a piece of land in a remote area somewhere in Akwa Ibom, the woman who was suppose to show us around the boundaries kept making a big fuss about going for a political rally, my boss asked her who she was going to rally for, suprisingly, she didnt even know, she only told us she would miss the bus if she spent a tad more time here and the wrapper and blouse and for the next rally, thats now bad the system is, a while ago I was watching channels tv news, some group of youths and women held placards and chanting we no go gree o, we no go gree and the correspondent asked one of them whats the protest about, wetin you no go gree? Funny enough the fellow said "Bros me ah know oo, I just dey work for my money, I no sabi" and thats how he went back to chanting ignorantly. Thats how messed up we are, until we reject peanuts and support the right minds with good prospects only then do I see a better nigeria.
I still believe in her.
