THE NEED TO VOTE ...


The elections have long begun and in less than two weeks, our president, governors, senators and representatives for the next four years would be known.

Leaders who would lead them out of the wilderness of want and corruption to the promise land are what Nigerians sincerely hope for.
Guaranteed security, uninterrupted power supply, good roads, quality education instead of jumbo pays, poor infrastructure, porous economic policies are what Nigerians crave for.
Before the elections, the question was to vote or not vote?
Why bother to vote when our votes wouldn’t count, this is Nigeria where elections are rigged and someone from nowhere is made to control others.

After, so many promises of a free and fair election, the word became participate, register and vote.
Yes, we should vote to reject all candidates and their parties in the past have engaged in, promoted and celebrated corruption in Nigeria.

Yes, let’s vote for change, let’s vote for transformation, oh yes, let’s vote for a new Nigeria. Let’s vote to make that change we desire.

Yes, if you do not vote, millions of people will suffer because of your action. Do not dash the desperate politicians your votes because they will only dash your hopes and we will be back to square one.

However, my friend, if you want to sell your vote, i won’t say no but make sure it is worth its weight in gold. Wait a little, think of the future, though poverty has been elevated in this country, it has left the pocket to the head. Think of your children’s future and make the right the decision.

So, I suggest you make an impact with your vote.
