New France president, Emmanuel Macron sworn in

39-year-old centrist, Emmanuel Macron, today, took over from
President Francois Hollande, the socialist whose five years in
power were plagued by stubborn unemployment and attacks.

Emmanuel Macron has been inaugurated as France's president,
and will immediately face daunting challenges to rejuvenate the
economy and breathe new life into the beleaguered European
Union.

With this, Macron  becomes France's youngest ever president. He beat his far-right rival Marine Le Pen to win  the presidency, winning more than 65 percent of the vote on May 7.

Nice one and a BIG congrats to him.

Now, France kids can sing the song "parents listen to your children,
                                                                   We're the leaders of tomorrow..."
With all confidence. But not here in Nigeria. It's called fallacy.

And once again, thanks to the French people for giving the younger generation a chance.
