Hi Nairalanders,


I had to get permission from my Mentor ''Sam Ikoku'' to publish this content as its too motivating to be left on Facebook. PVC Alone Will Not Guarantee A Better Life For Nigerians...

I hate to state the obvious but 10m or 100m Voters Cards will not translate to a better life for Nigerians if the choice remains between the lesser of two evils.

Let's not confuse activity with results.

The problem right now is that the independent candidacy portion of the matrix is fragmented.

There are so many independent candidates that its becoming a comedy of sorts. Some seem to be holding their strategy close to their chest, probably because of their fear of giving away their "brilliant ideas" or the fear of starting their roadshow too early because of the perceived cost of running a viable campaign. The result is that they are undifferentiated and, hard truth, may not as well exist at this point.

It's time to break ranks and crowdsource your campaign machinery. A viable presidential candidate and his/her carefully selected vice at this point will make a low-cost High-Impact impression on the national psyche.

With a strong message, a clear implementation strategy and a good understanding of social mobilisation strategy they can attract a nationwide base of volunteers to constitute their political structure and, in my estimation tap into at least N20b in free goodwill funds (later I can share how we arrived at this minimum figure) to fund their campaign.

Two independent candidates that create a new axis-of-power (reaching across ethnic and religious divides), and a pragmatic approach based on ascertainable and achievable objectives will energize Nigerians in desperate need of change that translates into a positive quality of life.

If that happens and the David-versus-Goliath narrative underscores their campaign, crowdsourced funds could exceed N100b.

Of course we first have to overcome the "Na Me" Complex where every independent candidate wants to be President.

This is the time to break away from the pack. By October it will be Game Over as Independent Candidates will decimate their own ranks and quench the power of their collective potential.

I maintain that for Independent Candidates, June to September will be the months of maximum leverage; the time during which stepping out boldly could topple the proverbial applecart. Having made themselves into beautiful brides they can then decide which party to "overthrow" rather than risk being snuffed out too early.

These gallant men and women must act now because simply owning a Permanent Voters Card without the right people to vote for will not guarantee a better life for Nigerians.
