Abstract: | This paper examines the place of youths in Igbo systems of governance, traditional as well as modern. It argues that Igbo political philosophy and practice have always demonstrated profound wisdom and pragmatism in that they recognize that young and aged people are organic and therefore inextricable elements in the good governance of Igboland (Nigeria).
