The number of registered voters is 749,065, not 1 million as you claimed.

Though there will be some eligible people that would decide not to have PVC, mostly because they feel they don't need it.

Also, many of the registered voters are not full-time residents.

Some decide not to vote as they believe their votes won't "count, " or they don't have any preferable choice among the candidates available.

While some others only have the PVC for other future purposes.

These categories of people are called "swing voters" and that's where the "votes buying/inducement" comes into play.

It happens everywhere.

In the North that we all hype, the Political class induces all these categories of people to vote with money, food, or any other instantaneous gifts.

Op is correct.

Many Southerners have given up on voting.

The failure of successive governments to deliver on their campaign promises has resulted in widespread loss of interest in voting.

In the North all kids are registered voters by force by fire by their emirs and Imams from the mosques.

Almajiris and Muslim foreigners from Niger Republic, Chad Senegal Mauritania Mali and Gambia are brought in by Fulani leaders to vote.

In addition heartless rigging backed by gov't of the North and security forces are all desperately engaged in rigging elections.

The core North always does things above the law and get away with it cos it's their way or bloodshed

That is more reason why southern voters should come out enmass and vote, we claim votes doesn't count but they force their people to vote because they know the importance.

The insinuation that votes don't count is wrong.
votes count. it's those that register for PVC but refused to come out and vote are the cause of electoral rigging, that's why Most People believe votes don't count.

So you believe northern voters ordinarily go out to vote on their own without any form of inducement?

The Northerners in the south that usually travel back home to vote, you believe they use their money for transport fare?

Answer these questions first, let's see.

Of course they are induced and maybe their transport expense is covered by someone..... But in the end that someone achieves his aim of hijacking the system.... So what then should the southern electorate do?? Wait for inducement too? Or take their destiny into their hands and vote massively?

People with no affiliation with any political party don't usually have the zeal to vote anywhere.

In such situations, people only vote when they know the person they are voting for is going to make the changes they desire.

In Nigeria, most political candidates don't convince us enough to give us the zeal to vote for them. Many of them don't come with convincing campaigns, other than "I'll construct roads, I will build blocks of classrooms, primary health care, etc."

In Ekiti, for example, I doubt if any of the candidates came out to present the clear blueprints on how he planned to turn the state into a "small London."

Without such convincing plans, many electorates with no party affiliation would not find it interesting to vote, because they would have nobody in mind to vote for.

You don't just expect people to vote for voting's sake.

One of the main reasons "IPOB" were saying there won't be an election in South East is because they don't have interest among the candidates.

But immediately Obi emerged as the flag bearer of LP, the story changed thereafter.

The SE people are majorly the people canvassing "youths" to get PVC. Why? Because they now believe someone that will represent their interest is now contesting, and they would love to vote him with, or without inducement.

Hence, Southern Politicians should always induce us, either with money or clear plans to make our states or country better.

By then, I believe many people will rather collect 10k and vote, than tweet online, or vote because they know they are voting for someone with a good plan to make the desired changes instead of tweeting online.
