Happy Independence Day
In contributing my own quota to making our country a better place, I wrote a book; "Nigeria 2019: Sell Your Worth Not Your Vote" to sensitize the people on the need to shun election malpractices especially, vote Selling/Buying...
Free and fair electoral conduct is something we are all familiar with and often hear about; however, have we even comprehended its true meaning: its deeper meanings, its real conducive elements, and the functions it should serve? Presently, various sections of the society have taken up the call for free and fair elections and clean electoral practices. But the imperative question to ask is: Will the people accept it? Will the people really
change?
With the recent, embarrassing vote buying/selling practiced by politicians and voters alike, it is imperative that voters’ awareness is intensified on, to:
- Awaken the people and make them realize that they are at the receiving end of these
bargains and transactions, - Redefine values, self-worth and morals as vote selling/buying simply highlights a decline in the aforementioned,
- Reorient the people to know that they are the backbone of democracy and, the essence of government is to serve them; hence, whoever means well for them should not lure them with money to serve them, knowing fully well that service is not pleasure,
- Make voters get angry with all forms of election malpractices and determine to take a new turn towards development and growth,
- Provide voters with alternatives available to them as against being limited to choosing
between the two ruling parties who have been in the helms of affairs in Nigeria for about 20 years now with little or no improvements in the country’s development, and no hope of a better future in view should either retain power in 2019.
