Nigeria Can Conduct Credible Elections, Using Edo State As A Yardstick by MurphyT1: 3:35pm On Jul 16, 2012
Overtime Nigeria has experienced zig zags in her electoral system, with a lot of intimidation and violence, rigging and stealing of ballot boxes...looking at recent elections this year frm Sokoto, kebbi, and Edo states etc, the was no record of electoral malpractices, rigging or thuggery. Electorates trooped out enmass to exercise one of their civil rights without fear of intimidation, and violence in polling unit, contrary to wot was obtainable before...this goes a long way to confirm the fact that Nigeria is fast getting there, were electorates votes will count, without any foul play.
However, there is need for us, Nigerians to believe in this developmental process, the is need for Nigerians to believe in govt policies, the is need for nigerians to ignored all agents seeking govt downfall, having in mind that noting good comes in a hurry, but in due time with careful thought, consultations and implementation. Even as Nigeria is faced with some security challenges, Nigerians should put themselves in the shoes of the leaders and know that certain action requires tact esp when it has to do with security issues, giving the govt our cooperation, I believe in no time the problems will be ova...it is good to criticize at least contructively not rendering abuses, and distracting the govt, cos e no easy o...these foreign countries r not happy when things go right in Africa ESP Nig, they just want to b the only outstanding ones, so the try to manipulate Nigerians against Nigeria to bring down the country, letz resist them...with the current feat in electoral process, security will be next...I believe.
