So how do we know you’re telling the truth?

Kindly read it again, does it sound to you like lies? If so, no problem.

In the presidential elections, a few others and I were disenfranchised because of unit problems, I went to the polling unit by 7AM, I waited till 5PM but couldn't vote. INEC arrived by 2:30PM after choas that day, I went home tired and frustrated.

Today, I wasn't in my polling unit, I took risk and traveled from my state capital to my location today. The road was so dry, Military everywhere, no public transport, I almost urinated in my cloths at the sight of armed forces men... I waited and luckily saw a bus, I ran to enter, we took a bush track... We were all scared, it wasn't easy this morning...

I arrived my unit, my neighbor asked me if I'm voting PDP, I was shocked, this is someone we both agreed to vote YPP, because he's a better candidate, she had been bought over with money... She directed me on what to do and who to meet to get my 5k there.

I queued, voted and step aside. The police man was bribed, he gave party agents way to stand and look at the votes cast, if it's PDP, they take you to the backyard, write your name and account number, expect 5k while they give you 1k as initial thank you.

I wasn't too shocked, this was the system... I wanted the money so badly, I was even laughed at... Coupled with my suffering today, plus during the presidentials everyone collected except me... Today, I can't boast of a thousand naira but I stood by grounds for the sake of equity and good conscience.

PDP won the unit, with a wide margin.. I was vexed... I came back home, even posted on my WhatsApp, I'm being laughed at, and I began wondering when doing good turned to a thing of mockery now....

I pray God opens a way for me so I can keep closing my eyes when I see money like this, as a student, 6k is way too much in this economy... But we move. On God.

This is me feeling fulfilled knowing I can criticize this governmet for the next four years with good conscience.

PDP will win in Akwa Ibom State as usual, but it's trash. But I know they're people like me, God bless you.

a Nigerian student who went through ASUU strike for months boldly sold his votes to the same people who mortgage his future and wants me to applaud him. No, I won't..

Except I'm misunderstanding your point.

You are very right my brother. The effect of vote buying has really corrupted the electory process in Akwa ibom and the country as a whole.
With the way things are hard, people just jump at the peanut they where given and end up selling their conscience for the next 4 to 8yrs. On the internet they will criticise the government but when its time to make the right decision with their voters card, they will forget all their criticism and voted base on the immediate money they see. So pathetic. I thank God we are all in together for the next 4 yrs.

Using Hunger as a weapon to buy vote, that's why that Udom hypeman called Ilaumoh a. k. a Hunchogee will come online and hype politicians who have failed Akwa Ibom people.

Well all i can say is you are wrong you see evil triumphs over good in Nigeria it always has, so why on earth would you choose to be good to prove what exactly? if this is your mentality then the country Nigeria isn't for you next time collect you 6k and vote for the evil party, you see in Nigeria only the corrupt, selfish and evil people are rewarded forget all that bullshit they say in church, your pastors are also part of the evil people only that they collect their own 6k behind closed doors and are tasked with selling people like you hope so that you would remain docile to the system by saying things like" it would be better" "pray for Nigeria' "God is in control" i understand how disappointed you are but i advise you to join the winning side next time to avoid heart break you would get nothing out of being Good in Nigeria and if you want to be a saint i think you should japa to a place where you would be appreciated
