The ball is in our courts, the road to the Nigeria seat of power Aso Rock is long, expensive, exciting, interesting and exhausting. Becoming a candidate is only the beginning of the election process. Successful candidates must both persuade voters that they deserve their individual votes and garner the critical votes of electors in the Electoral Constituencies.
Persuading voters is the essence of a political campaign speeches and even negative campaigning of columny and character assassination is inevitable. This period offer new opportunities for candidates to persuade voters the need to vote for the candidate of their choice, every political parties display their manifestoes to convince the electorates.
We shall soon see, hear lies and counter lies promises just to woos votes but we shouldn't play the victim again, as they said, "once beaten twice shy", it is human to make mistakes but to repeat and remain in the mistakes is a choice and act of foolishness.
Friends now we have another great opportunity to correct our mistakes, it starts with our PVCs, go get one for yourself, let's mobilize for PVCs tsunamis, We are the threshold of history, our votes will count this time, let us not fall prey to the old saying that our votes do not count, it's a fallacy and plan to count us out.
Campaigns still relied on tried and true ways to persuade voters, Campaign promises and direct contact between voters and candidates.
Fellow electorates we should resist any temptation of votes buying for an immediate gratification, your vote is your right, it's your powerful weapon for change. "Essau in the the Bible sold his right for a pot of stew, he paid dearly for it in the future, people blame Jacob for tricking his brother for his birth right but refused to blame Essau for selling it for now, now, now gratification.
LESSONS: The future came and it was time for the blessings, he didn't get it, he blamed it on Jacob but he forgot that he sold his future, you can't eat your cake and have it. Today too many Nigerians are crying and blaming their predicaments on bad governments but we forgot that we sold our birth right like Essau in the Bible. Nevertheless we having a golden opportunity to reclaim back our country, our birth rights and THE TIME IS NOW!.
Nigerians, as you listen to the aspirants of various political parties jostle for their party's victory at the coming general elections, think and ask if they can offer youa better tomorrow that they couldn't provide in the past before voting for them.
Our Mumu don do, Shine your eyes well well.
It's hard to imagine what transpired in Shehu Yar'Addua Centre Abuja on 20\7\2022 during the unveiling of Senator Kashim Shettima as Vice President of All Progressive Congress, what was displayed was a politics shame, shananigan, desperation and hiding motive, "Monitocracy" money bag politics.
Today, a candidate's every word, every action, and even their perceived thoughts should be read precept by precept and line upon line, X-ray and lay bare public before they can get our votes.
Thank you, let's meet at the polls.
YOU HAVE THE YAM AND THE KNIFE, THE CHOICE IS YOURS!.
