[/b]OPEN LETTER TO THE DELEGATES[b]


Dear delegates, once again the spotlight is on you, our weak democracy is in your hands, the future of Nigeria is in your hands, you can either decide to think of your stomach, throw away credibility, throw away competence & sell your vote to the highest bidder or you can think of the future of Nigeria, your children & grandchildren & pitch your tent with the most credible candidate/alternative.

I understand that during the last general elections some of you went away with monies ranging from 500 thousand naira to over a million naira in your pockets.
I understand that the depth of one's pocket can easily secure him the ticket to be a party flag bearer but what's the wisdom of being rich for one day & spending the remaining 4yrs+ In poverty & regrets?

Dear delegate, remember your decision will determine how well the next 4yrs will be. Also, remember that we go to the same market, your children are in school & there are bills to pay. Remember also that today you are the most sought after group by politicians but ask yourself if you will still be sought after the primaries.

Dear delegate, forgive me for coming hard on you but I totally blame you for whatever predicament we are going through today from the ward counselship to the local government Chairmen to the state & federal legislatures to the presidency. The candidates you give us will not only bear our fate but yours as well.

Dear delegate, you have no right to complain that a leader is bad because according to the electoral laws of Nigeria, we can only work with the candidates you present to us, the choice you made 4yrs ago is what we are all leaving with.

Dear delegate, before you cast that vote, please ask yourself what your candidate will do for the people;
will he tackle the issue of insecurity?
will he create jobs?
Will he provide quality health care?
Will he industrialize the state?
Will he build new roads?
Will he tamper with the unity of the people or will he bang their heads together?
Will he represent us well in the National Assembly?
Will he come up with bills that will have direct positive impact on the people?
Will he attract federal government projects to the state?
How about workers welfare, will he pay them as at when due or will he keep owing them?
What will his policies be like? Will they favor the citizens or just his clique?

Dear delegate I implore you not to sell your conscience for any kind of gratification which is not good governance but if you must, please let everyone willing to buy your vote do so for a minimum of 15million naira per delegate.
Remember, a delegate who only relies on his money to get your vote won't be accountable to anyone because he has paid you to buy your support.

Dear delegate, help me help your children give us a candidate that will build the Nigeria of the prophecy.
Copied.
