Nigerian Politics Has Changed. Even If You Rig, You Must Perform by Quintopia(op):
Nigerian politics has changed.

Everybody has opened eye.

Even if you rig yourself into power as president or not, you must perform, because the scrutiny and pressure on you is just too intense, including from social media.

Especially from social media, where armies of millions of furious Nigerians are ready to descend on you if you screw up.

This is why we see how Tinubu hit the ground running from Day 1.

He cannot afford to be seen to be dulling.

You just have to perform in today’s Nigeria or you’re finished politically.

Also, it must be said that the Peter Obi phenomenon contributed to this rise in social media activism that is making the leaders sit up.

We’re getting there.

Tell me which politician on Earth is totally clean.

Just name one.

Anywhere in the world.

Is it Biden?

If I start listing the crimes Biden has committed in this world, you would run away in panic.

The introduction of BVAS technology has erased the open riggings in the past.

Plus, Nigerians are now aware that no political heavy weight is too rigid to dispose using the ballot.

Tech has come to stay, bye bye to open rigging.

The next things is for politicians to start using court ti manipulate themselves into offices.

huh

Otti is one of the best governor who is not bothered about defection, because he knows his work speaks volumes, unlike the other failed one, who defected because he has nothing to offer and his performance has been abysmal...

If you are very good, your people will always rally round for you to vote you in, in the next election
