I have watched with interest your quest to reward hardwork through the campaign #youneedanewbank song remix. I commend the initiative and hope to see more collaborations of this nature.

The top 30 songs have been selected and I must say most of them are really good. Now the 30 songs have been subjected to an online voting system to win the grand price of 1.5 million Naira today at mid night. How encouraging! This will really be a good reward for hardwork!

However I must express my disappointment with the voting system chosen, online voting (Poll Daddy). I have watched the results and have seen votes rise in their thousands within hours, today. While some are rising in their thousands, others are rising in their tens and those ones must be wondering what they are not doing right to get as much votes as the others... actually what they are not doing "right" is that they are not cheating, mostly out of ignorance.

When we have sites like buycontestvote.com, buyvoteslikes.com and the rest, it is so easy for anyone with the knowlege and some money to rig any online voting system as these "service providers" can offer hundreds of thousands of votes withing a very short period of time and with a money back guaranty.

I have read the comments and I have seen the complaints made by many and the defense made by others on the campaign site. I am in a very neutral position on the matter so I can only watch the goings on with keen interest.

Diamond Bank and NotJustOk.com, at midnight I am keen to see how you filter out these thousands of fake votes (if you have any plans of doing that). I am interested in seeing whether, at midnight today you will be rewarding corruption or hardwork.

P.S: I am a programmer and Linux admin and know nothing about music production (I installed fruity loops some 10 years ago or so and never opened the app and that's as far as I went, so I am not saying this because I have any vested interests in any of the 30 submissions there)

Did you just say poll daddy?
Which webmaster doesn't know how to rig votes on poll daddy. This is hilarious

Well, that's what happens when they don't do due research on things they feel are trivial issues.

Good luck to the contestants
