Student Research: 90% Of Igbos Don't Have A Voters Card by LIFEisSIMPLE: 4:30pm On Apr 21, 2018
I am currently a 400L political science student with Abia state university, and for my project i am working on "the participation of Ndigbo in the Nigerian political system. Case study of 5 eastern states". Yesterday, I went to the ever busy city of Aba, Abia state to carry out a survey, with the help of two classmates who where interested in my research, and to our greatest Surprise we realised that of the first 100 adult we asked if they had a voters card only 12 Said they truly have a voters card. And when we asked another 100 adults, only 9 said they have a voters card. Making a total of 21 of 200 participants (10.5%). Our most shock came from the female gender, with only 2 of the 77 asked saying they have a voters card. My target is to get a sample of 5,000 participants for this research with 1,000 from each of the 5 eastern states.
I plan to go touch most cities, towns and villages in the 5 states in the process of carrying out this reasearch.
But initial findings is showing that the igbos are not under populated but rather are not willing participants in the Nigerian electoral system. And that a system has to be put in place to mandate the Igbo participation in the electoral process.
I honestly feel like i can conclude my reasearch with my initial findings, but for the sake of humanity and a God who is watching, i will carry out the full research of 5,000 participants.

To the Igbos at every oppurtunity, ask yourself, your friends and your community's if they have gotten their voters card.
One of my suggestions would be that the government should make it compulsory for all university students to have a voters card before they can be allowed to graduate. Given that admissions start at a minimum age of 16, it would be expected that all students are old enough to vote before they can graduate.

INEC has a site for checking Voters Card collection against demography. You put additional authenticity to your research by comparing your gathered data against what INEC has reported.

All the best !!!!

There is no law that mandates or forces anyone to vote or get PVC. I'm a proud Igbo man who doesn't have a PVC and for good reason too. Nigeria is a failure and I will have nothing to do with its politics any more!

I SUPPORT FULL INDEPENDENCE OF THE IGBO NATION AS A SEPARATE COUNTRY FROM THE 1914 BRITISH COLONIAL DISASTER CALLED NIGERIA!

AS A RESULT, I SUPPORT MY FELLOW IGBOS TO TOTALLY BOYCOTT THE 2019 ELECTIONS!

NIGERIA IS A FAILURE, NO MATTER WHO GETS ELECTED.

If we can achieve a Nigeria that works, there would be no need for a referendum. The first time biafra was mentioned was because of cracks in the entity called Nigeria.

You seem to be doing a job that might be useful to somenone out there. Beyond politics, I am simply suggesting that you put signature of quality and authority to your research by bench-marking against INEC collated data.
Re: Student Research: 90% Of Igbos Don't Have A Voters Card by LIFEisSIMPLE: 9:16pm On Apr 21, 2018
with due respect, let someone else can do that. I will be collecting my data from the streets not by what inec tells me. A sample of 5,000 is sufficient for the research i am carrying out. I might reference INEC here and there but nothing more than that.
