Is there anything wrong with children running for election?
Some feel exposing children early to politics is an advantage
while others feel it is a disadvantage as it exposes
the child to a lot of emotional trauma. What's your thought on this?
I don't see anything wrong with that, politics ordinarily is a beautiful game. Bur the way its played in some places, especially over here portrays it in a very bad light. I don't see anything wrong in children been introduced to healthy politics without bitterness.
Hell no to politics, i am no fan of politics and anything it stands for, politics is a bloody game so y expose children to it. No child of mine will become a politician

HELLLL NOOOOOO......DE SHUD BE GIVEN SUCH POST BY MERIT ..POLITICS IS DIRTY AS IT IS AND NOT FOR KIDS, ESP AS KIDS GET INFLUENCED ...TRUST ME BEHIND THAT POSTER ARE THEIR PARENTS DOING ALL SORT OF DIRTY THINGS FOR THEIR OWN KID TO WIN
In my own opinion , there should be a total freedom . If a child wants to express himself or herself via political ambition , he should be given the oppurtunity so far his security is guaranteed
It depends on wat dey ar contesting for. Bt to me its nt good nd def its d parents dat wil sponsor dem.. me dnt likey at all.. dnt like kids on posterz.. nt good
It is totally laudable in my opinion to expose kids to politics early, they will learn early not to see politics as a do or die affair and they can develop early leadership skills and will understand the need for integrity, honesty and hardwork etc as necessary values for success in politics...a total welcome development...
pauline johnson at anthony..d sch is close to my hux nd i knw a lotta peeps dat admire d election of prefects nd i knw kids in Pauline johnson dat lost d elections nd equally lost der self esteem....itz a good nd bad situation
It depends on what they are contesting for. It could be for a responsible post at school .Such position leaves them with some forms of responsibilities. Bt if for politics as in POLITICS? Then it's dangerous.Politics is a dangerous game.
I think it is good, because they are learning how to lead and build confidence. Nothing wrong with it. I was impressed when I saw the poster. I will encourage my 5 years old son to do so, if it comes up in their school.
It will be a good development,for this will prepare them and make them realize that there's many mountains for them to climb if they want to be a good leader in years to come
skul election or wot..if z skul election den it depends on how smart dey r buh if z d real political election den no no no..rule over who?dt sounds absurd thiwabhabe@gmail.com
I think its good for kid to have the political experience at a young age. It make them grow into better people. And it really exposes them to reality of life and how to rule. Had elections in my secondary sch
Children should be left to be children. Becoming a politician does not make one a leader but the other way round. Instead of this,I think career/leadership trainings should be organised for the kids. It would make them better. okaforchris.blogspot.com
The earlier the better. They'll develop confidence and understand the concept of hard work. Mind you, they are competing for "head boy " health prefect" etc. Plus It ll be good for when they are writing essays for higher Education. My brother had a campaign in his primary school. Before then he was quite shy n reserved #myopinion
It's a good thing. That's how you properly groom children on how to conduct themselves in such scenarios in the future. It's all about training them to be leaders. That's what the politicians of today lack.
Exposing Dem 2 wat hatred? Abeg am fully in support. Wit all ds bombings everywhere, n is a NC way 2 bring Dem up. Parents should not just corrupt der minds n let it be natural. Cos whr d emotional trauma wil com in is wen d parents pressurise Dem.
Sometimes I wonder how pple reason.. How can one expose kids to politics, a child who can merely take his own decision... How would u feel seeing your kid having enemies or don't u know that politics is a game of interest,struggle to survive,survival of fitteset, in the words of scholar, politics is who gets what, how and when....introducing a kid into politics is like teaching him/her how to make enemies and this is no what a responsible parent she do rather train your kids on how to be a good leader and a statesman so that wen he grows he can take line of politics if he desire, so guys before arguing try and find out d meaning of d concept,, I'm total against d idea if child politics especially taking politics in Nigeria context, check how d future will be if kids starts now to make enemies and learn how to kill or wicked them..plz don't take it personal
There's nothing wrong with it, they need to develop their leadership skills at this stage and if they are exposed to clean and transparent politics they won't depart from it. Good way to build a good Nigeria.
Linda I think you should have asked the question on a contextual basis. The children pictured are obviously vying for leadership positions in their school. In that context, I think it is perfectly okay. In primary school I was literally forced to become the head girl of my school just because their criteria for selection was based on excellent academic records. We sometimes forget that not every one has the capacity to lead. The advantage is that at that age, the healthy competition that comes with politics helps hone their management and leadership skills. It also helps the child act responsibly when he or she finally assumes office in that position. I totally support politics at that level and in that context. Nadia
What a question! and many replies are flowing on the same frequency with the questioner, adults are finding it difficult to play the game, globally it is a dirty game it involves blood, lies, betrayal, blackmail etc now u want children to do what?
your choice of photo is not professional. what's up with the okada driver in that pix? I mean it doesn't portray a thing here. I love u still and will always do. NICE DAY!

Empty mind now. Let's the lil kids in the hood play. ENGR Emy
How's that possible...
Exposing a child too early to politics can be harmful to a child.
If not well managed be sure to raise a tyrant or one wit extreme low self esteem! I wont encourage it tho...
It actually depends on how you look @ it. I'll be back to explain. Telemundo time....someone's watching
Children? No wqy
What's d okada man doing there.
Truly, кι∂ѕ are not supposed to be exposed to the spot light αѕ this may not only affect their education ßut also among their peers.
Children shd face their studies abeg, and build a good foundation for themselves
Is a way of exposing dem to emotional trauma at early age.am nt in support of it

Of course, if they don't start bullying others into stepping down, it is good for their self esteem. Good for the country too
Linda go to gbemi's Instagram someone asked her about aswani market and she claims she doesn't know aswani could this be true
Mr lyca
I think it is good, because they are learning how to lead and build confidence. Nothing wrong with it. I was impressed when I saw the poster. I will encourage my 5 years old son to do so, if it comes up in their school.
I dnt think so, Is too early to expose them to politics and what do the know abt leadership.No no no.
Hv u ever seen a healthy politics??
It depends on the age.
You this igbotic woman.. Must you expose your foolish self all the time?
It will be a good development,for this will prepare them and make them realize that there's many mountains for them to climb if they want to be a good leader in years to come
skul election or wot..if z skul election den it depends on how smart dey r buh if z d real political election den no no no..rule over who?dt sounds absurd
thiwabhabe@gmail.com
If corrupt people like you cannot do it, maybe the children of tomorrow might help out.
Literary,its right. Grammatically its wrong
Hell to de no children should not be involved in politics. joanoma@ymail.com
WTF who said dat linda...Trauma? Hmmm
It's ok... Politics takes place in every aspect of human lives and d society and man by his very nature is a product of politics
I think its good for kid to have the political experience at a young age. It make them grow into better people. And it really exposes them to reality of life and how to rule. Had elections in my secondary sch
Razz girl. Always speaking idiotic Ibo .
It exposes them to juju, as far as Nigerian politics is concerned. #idonsaymyown
It is a good idea but, we wunt concentrate on our sturdies anymore!!!
Its ok if the don't share rice in school.
Rubbish
Please let them enjoy their childhood!
Children should be left to be children. Becoming a politician does not make one a leader but the other way round. Instead of this,I think career/leadership trainings should be organised for the kids. It would make them better.

I don't see anything wrong wit it,is a whole lot of exposure for the child. Jewel
only for adult
BORN TO SHINE!!!!
I feel it's wrong. . Probably dey can wen dey get to university bt nt at dat tender age
Hmmm I guess u re referring to elections in primary and secondary schools for prefects
Everything is wrong with it. What about their education? Not to talk of emotions and all that? Hell no!
The earlier the better. They'll develop confidence and understand the concept of hard work. Mind you, they are competing for "head boy " health prefect" etc. Plus It ll be good for when they are writing essays for higher Education. My brother had a campaign in his primary school.

Hmmmmm! It's good to start early joor

Linda, Children politics is as good as child abuse.... You know why? They will only learn how to tell lies just like the adults.
Exposing Dem 2 wat hatred? Abeg am fully in support. Wit all ds bombings everywhere, n is a NC way 2 bring Dem up. Parents should not just corrupt der minds n let it be natural. Cos whr d emotional trauma wil com in is wen d parents pressurise Dem.

If only we are in a safe country,not in a country where everything is being condemned and yet nothing is being done
