The role of Students in peace sustainability and political development.

If the protest that ran down the clock of October 2020 isn't a vivid indicator then indeed, the all-
engrossing damnation pacing at breakneck speed is well deserved.

Regardless of the counterfactual aphorism "we are leaders of tomorrow" we can only but wake up to a
dystopian society where cautions are being thrown to the wind and the overall input of those yet to be
worn out by time has been blackballed in every conceivable branch of reality.

This just begs to be asked, how can you survive in a cutthroat society when you're only a few inches taller
than carpet Grass?

In a society where peace is a mere fairytale, an idea that has been engineered to only be heard and never
seen?

It's no lie that the political structure of our contemporary society is one lacking integrity, a sheer display
of puppetry stretched across 774 local government areas. To advance politically is to inculcate moral
integrity, how does a student function in such an area?

Their decisions in terms of leadership are seldom considered,

do they have a say in the affairs governing the state?

They do vent from time to time but are physiologically blackmailed and robbed by the words of their
aged counterparts the likes of which reads

"you're too young to understand politics".

Across the globe, unpopular figures hint at the unanimous participation of students in electing class
monitors and representatives.

The narrative that Students are too young to participate in politics or understand it should be outlined as a
Myth as by way of intuition many, regardless of age, can discern evil from good.
By conserving sustainable knowledge of electoral misconduct and sharing the unnerving effects of it
amongst their peers, students can help to expel the ugly experience of a predatorial Government that
neglects goal actualization and feeds on the dreams of its citizens, by starving it.

If indeed, power is circulated and handed down it will only be a matter of years before power is handed
down to these leaders of tomorrow, the knowledge they share will play an active role in the growth of
politics.

Their level of activeness can also tend to shoulder this very cause as politics thrive on the number of
active participants.

In a clear scenario where political apathy becomes a prevailing mindset, it would breathe out nationwide
stagnation, loss of democracy, and physiological damage due to a lack of personal political interaction.

There is no disputing that politics is a wind that fans the embers of inter-tribal conflict and violence—a
recognizable threat to national peace, a true testament of such was easily seen in the insurrection that
defaced the Capitol in Washington DC, United States, following the 2020 general election.

This of course was as a result of a dire estrangement subsisting between the Republicans and democrats,
in similitude the immediate cause of the 1966 war in Nigeria didn't fall too far from the aforementioned,
the unrest that spawned from the north involving anti-Igbo pogroms, a coup, counter-coup, and
persecution of Igbos living in Northern Nigeria's are all sureties.

The need to groom oneness till it radiates as a built-in Quality is ever demanding, the most effective way
to pull through with this is to tap into the underlying philosophy of intercultural relationships. By doing
so, it would become a default setting to include other cultures irrespective of the said language barrier.

this, of course, would promote a single mindset governed by a leading purpose which will in turn serve as
a mechanism for sustaining peace, as everyone will constantly agree to disagree regarding conflicting and
controversial matters.

This way the dire by-products of the event that took place on the 20th of October 2020 will never have a
repeat.

Notwithstanding, such only proffers in a handful of responses sourced from Meticulous reasoning.
A follow-through from this Should be to usher in an unmatched level of Kindness and empathy. For
Tranquility to sail above sea level the function of students should be aimed at modeling Kindness and
empathy.

The concept, if genuinely applied without malice, will to a certain degree expunge the already empowered
conflict that has marred the country.

Aside from being a foot lamp, it can as well pave way for a more stable future as those tasked with the
role of succeeding this generation would have no option but to follow suit in accepting olive branches
over ammunition and warheads.

It would also help curb the bane of unemployment that has been a well-perceived influence on communal
conflicts. How so? Kindness atomizes the Notion of egotism

, a supposed recipe that promotes a spiral effect of greed which As we've all perceived in retrospect, takes
the crown for conflict.

Ignorance has been a rather prevailing factor, in our modern society and the lack of information knitted
deeply in the shared lackluster among youths can easily lead to unjustifiable uproars and extremism.

The erudite, for the sake of this very cause, would be doing a huge favor by sharing information
encapsulating the bliss of peace, and why it is necessary among their less informed colleagues.

This can take effect by way of seminars and/or casual dialogue among 2 or more individuals. preach that
contradictory individual idea is not a pretext for antagonism.

While we all plow deep in search of ideas in a bid to evade a retrospective resurgence or sit down and
watch our past swallow the future it is important to note that the loudest cry can easily be outgunned by a
few actions.
