The Power Of The Electorate - 03-07-2018

In the Argentina match, I think we were being cheated, as I saw the VR and it was clear that the ball moved from the head to the hand of their player, but somehow the referee thought he could still rule and said it’s not a handball, and I believe, it’s because he weighed the options “should I upset Nigeria, or should I upset Argentina?” and he decided he can upset us anytime, and did so. That is what I believe went on and I believe either we face it or not, it is back again to leadership. What did he believe was going to be the consequences of his decision? . . . The time has come that, even if your father’s party foists a candidate on you that you do not believe in you reject it. We cannot vote parties; we should vote people we really believe are competent. We need to send a strong signal that no matter how powerful the party is, your candidate had better be powerful if you want to taste that office you are fielding the candidate for. This should be a different election come 2019, let us vote competence and capability. Once in four years we have the right in Nigeria to bring in a peaceful change, don’t be left behind, 2015 not only did I vote, I protected my vote, we counted the votes together, by torchlight. Join every well meaning patriotic Nigerian to make sure we start the process that will bring in 2019 the leaders that will usher in a Nigeria we can be proud of, a Nigeria that will nurture our children, and protect generations of Nigerians to come.
