We old people create problems for innocent young Nigerians -GEJ says

While speaking at the launch of the Youth
Employment in Agriculture Programme at the
Presidential Villa, Abuja, yesterday, President
Jonathan said that while young Nigerians are
venturing into music, acting and other activities
that bring glory to Nigeria, the older generation
are in politics insulting, abusing themselves and
causing problems for young Nigerians.
" For the Nigerian young men and women,
those who we have seen today and the ones
outside there, we appreciate and commend
you because anything that you are involved,
you bring glory to this country. Anything that
the old people like us are involved in, it is
always problems. Young people are involved
in sports, soccer, athletics and so on, and
within the period that I have been here as
Vice President and President, they have
always been bringing glory to us."
"Young people are involved in the movie,
popularly called Nollywood, and this
continues to bring glory to us. Young people
are involved in music, like D-Banj, and they
always continue to bring glory to us. But see
politics that old people like us are involved
in, we continue to quarrel and abuse
ourselves everyday and create problems for
innocent Nigerians. So, we believe that the
future of this country is in the hands of
young people. The young Nigerians will
surely take us to where we want to be. One
day, you will take us to the moon. I believe in
the young, creative and talented people.
Surely, we will create enabling environment
for you because you stand for the future of
this country and you will make this country
great.” the president said
