Under-30s ignored in world's parliaments

Only 1.9% of the world’s 45,000 parliamentarians are aged below 30.
http://www.ipu.org/pdf/publications/youthrep-e.pdf
 Full Report
Nearly a third of single or lower houses of parliament
and
nearly 80 per cent of upper houses
surveyed do not have a single Member of Parliament (MP) below the age of 30.

Only four countries - Sweden, Ecuador, Finland and Norway – have 10 per cent or more MPs below 30 years.

Report Summary
The overall figures for young MPs rise to 14.2% for those under 40,
and 26% for those under 45
In all age groups, the figures fall far short of the corresponding numbers for their share of the population. People aged 20-44 make up 57 per cent of the world’s voters, according to UN figures.

Top Ten Most Watched Videos Of All Time On CHANNELS TELEVISION's You Tube Channel

The most popular videos are not completely of a barbaric nature with dishonourable fights over nothing more than a share of money,

you can also find dishonourable meetings over nothing more than a measly share of money,

some (gravitational) tragedy as would be expected in a society where dishonour is normal,

but thanks to enigmatic mismo pismos such as Patrick Obahiagbon, we find a little humour as well.
 God bless Naija.
