In keeping with my word given on this page and at several public fora where I promised to provide every necessary resource needed by The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to conduct a free and fair election, I have just forwarded a Supplementary Budget Bill to the National Assembly to cater for the funds requested by The INEC through it's Chairman for the body to perform it's duties. I am deeply committed to equip The INEC bequeath genuinely democratic elections to Nigerians because I know this is possible as there is a precedent for this. If on June 12 1993, Nigeria could conduct credible elections, there is absolutely no reason why we can not conduct an even better election 18 years after. Remember we are only as strong as our weakest link so the key to success is for everyone to do their part. Now the government is doing it's part, and Chairman Jega and the team at The INEC are doing their part and very soon it will be up to you the good citizens of Nigeria to do your own part to make the exercise what we want it to be. Prepare to register and spread the word to your friends and family. Now is not the time to be cynical. The future of Nigeria depends on all of us registering to vote and voting on the appointed date in 2011. I call on both young and old, male and female, Christian and Muslim to remember the words of our National Anthem-Arise o compatriots! Nigeria's call obey-let us do our civic duty and participate in the registration exercise soon to be unveiled by The INEC so that again in the words of our National Anthem-The labour of our heroes past shall NEVER be in vain.
