Permit me to write this piece, especially as someone who has been voting since 2003 & who witnessed the small rise & then heavy fall of Nigeria politically & economically. Its about what to look out for what you want choose who can best face up to the challenges we are facing as a nation.

First is to look out for the antecedents of all the potential political candidates. Character and reputation're very stubborn virtues. If you have a reputation as a thief, you will never change, and for those who has a reputation of doing good things, they hardly change too.

That was why we were here screaming for people not to vote for Buhari is 2015 & 2019, we have been vindicated now. Tinubu is an exact replica of Buhari in everything. Both were corrupt, no certificates, can't speak effectively and convince anyone. Both of them have this propensity to resort to violence as a means of solving small issues.

Same also is atiku. the PDP candidate comes with a very dirty baggage, he has not been paying his taxes, was eased out of the service and his sources of wealth is as unknown as where tinubu went to secondary school.

We only have one candidate in this election, his name is Peter Obi and everything about him is clean, clear, clear and verifiable.He has also articulated his plans. He is very ready.No baggages anywhere.

Please vote for Peter Obi, his reputation is that of a humble, Compassionate leader capable of effecting the needed positive changes because of his competence.

Nigeria is a sore case of official malfeasance for two main reasons, both of which result from the elite capture of the country. One is the deliberate crippling of national institutions, and two is the weaponisation of poverty and ignorance, which has hampered citizens’ capacity to hold the govt accountable.

There are a few exceptions where people stick to their principles, but in most cases, the system frustrates them. The interest of the average Nigerian in politics is pecuniary, and anyone who stands in the way may end up crushed. Political merchants are in all political parties, so politicians should stop wasting Nigerians’ time with their smear campaigns.

What Nigerians want to hear is the plan of our political parties to take 20 million children off the streets and secure their future. Nigerians are eager to learn about concrete plans to improve healthcare delivery, put food on their tables, ensure that their children are gainfully employed, and protect their lives and property. Nigerians want institutions to function so that merit can once again rule in the country.

Vision and a sense of hope are what Nigerians need at the moment. The energy spent on mudslinging is a disservice to the people, whose only desire is a visionary leader capable of lifting them out of their current despair. It denies them the opportunity to sift the wheat from the chaff, separate the empty vessel from the still waters that run deep. As it concerns character, I do not think that Nigerians are under the illusion that any of our current political actors is a saint.

ScamHunter:
Which issue is bigger than allowing any of the thieves manage your resources? Any in Nigeria would people make any thief a manager to keep their money. They've said it all. With any of them elected as president, a thief would effectively be in power.

They will suffer if Tinubu becomes president
