It is really a shame to watch and hear many of the Nigerian leaders continuously and unashamedly disgrace the nation at will, both locally and internationally without blinking their eyes. Thank God for the few responsible ones among them. By their works, we know them.

And yet, it is still a Nigerian adage that says: "The ones the gods want to use for sacrifice, they first make mad".

The way the leaders have bastardized the nation's social economic life and image leaves a very sour taste in the mouth. It is either they do not listen to themselves talk or something is terribly wrong with their sense of morality and education. No wonder the youth are so discouraged to the extent that they are refusing to go for their PVCs.

I am a Nigerian and am forced to sometimes wonder if these people were actually born in the same country and went through the same educational system and moral up-bringing as my humble self. No wonder Nigerians are disrespected all over the world generally. Well, that is a topic for another day.

However in this post, Let's take a look at how to get the elections right in 2019.

My submissions go as follows:

The National Assembly will do well to enact the following laws as soon as possible before the next elections take place.

INEC must not register a candidate who has failed to to present his or her plans for the people in a well attended and televised debate with evidence to prove same. This should apply to all persons vying for the Presidential, Gubernatorial, Senatorial and House of Representative slots. Same goes for the Local Government Chairmen (and women). #OurMumuDonDo. It is time to wake up and demand our rights for once.
Independent Candidates should henceforth be allowed to contest at Councilorship and State House of Representative levels as long as the candidates meet the requirements for contesting such elections.
It should henceforth be mandatory for every elected leader except the President, his vice, the Senate Leader and the leader of the House of Representatives to go back to their constituencies for stewardship reports at least every three months and make video evidence of such to a special committee in the House of Assembly. It is time to deal with the "Abujalised" style of politics. Any politician who is afraid to go home to his or her people cannot represent such a people.
The "re-call" process for politicians who are not performing should be made public, accessible and easier for the ordinary people. It is irresponsible and retrogressive for the people to have to wait for four years in order to correct an anomaly in their representation in the House. Politicians must be re-callable as  soon as cases are proven against them.
