Top 3 Youngest Presidents in the World (2016)

 I brought you a list of the oldest presidents in the world a couple of days ago. It is only right that I also post an article with the youngest presidents in the world. Check the list out below.





3.  Joseph Kabila (D.R Congo)- 45
He became the president of D.R Congo after the assassination of his father in January of 2001. At the time, he was just 29 years old.

Top 5 Oldest Presidents in the World


As Charles Caleb Colton said, 'Power will intoxicate the best hearts, as wine the strongest heads. No man is wise enough, nor good enough to be trusted with unlimited power.' This is very true. That is why all but one of the people on my list of oldest presidents in the world have held the position for more than ten years.










Below is the list of top 5 oldest presidents in the world.






5.  Abdelaziz Bouteflika (Algeria)
Bouteflika was born 2nd March, 1937. He is 79 years old and has been the president of Algeria since 1999. Like former president Olusegun Obasonjo of Nigeria, he fought for a third term in 2006 after his two terms in office. But unlike Obasonjo, he won the bid, and went on to win the elections. He even stretched things further by fighting for a fourth term and again winning the bid. He has been ruling Algeria for 17 years now.
