Selling Your Votes Like Esau Sold His Birthright, And Weep Bitterly by obonujoker(op): 2:34pm On Aug 17, 2025
Lest there be any fornicator, or profane person, as Esau, who for one morsel of meat sold his birthright. Heb 12:6

I wonder why Nigerians keep selling their votes for paltry sums that cannot take them up to a week. It shows that Nigerians are immoral and profane especially those that proclaim to be church goers.

Why can't you go out and vote your choice whether APC, PDP, LP, etc without collecting money or recharge cards or rice? Can't you make your choice without being enticed??

How are you different from Adam and Eve, who sold their souls to Satan because of Food, or like Esau, or like Samson etc?? We know how these people lives ended in the Bible.

Our Lord Jesus was tempted with all these things, and he overcame, and it will be a shame that you call yourself a Christian and you sell and buy votes.

Go out and vote your leaders with the right mind, stop selling your votes because of food that will pass away in an instant, and then subject yourself to more problems.

May God help us Nigerians

I had same conversation with someone yesterday.

Quite unfortunate to share country with these sets of conquered and improvised people. Funny thing is they will still justify it saying that's the only time they can benefit from politicians.

You won’t sell your votes cos you have money to eat. But when a father of 4 doesn’t have food at home, I’m sure he won’t mind selling his votes cos to buy garri for his children. Last last, whether you vote for APC or you vote for PDP, na still the same thing. They are all bunch of clowns, who are after their own selves.

Is it your birthright

It's called demand and Supply


Why can't you go out and vote your choice whether APC, PDP, LP, etc without collecting money or recharge cards or rice? Can't you make your choice without being enticed??

The highest bidder is their choice
You do you make choices without being enticed by something or you just vote randomly randomly


How are you different from Adam and Eve, who sold their souls to Satan because of Food, or like Esau, or like Samson etc?? We know how these people lives ended in the Bible.

How can they be different from the ancestor?


Our Lord Jesus was tempted with all these things, and he overcame, and it will be a shame that you call yourself a Christian and you sell and buy votes.


That's why he's Jesus i'm not a regular human being

Go out and vote your leaders with the right mind, stop selling your votes because of food that will pass away in an instant, and then subject yourself to more problems.

What is the right mind and who are you to impose what you believe is the right mind on other people


May God help us Nigerians

Everyone who sells his votes from whatever party is on the same boat.

People that do such don't know what they are doing. If Esau knew , he wouldn't have sold his birthright

Better to go out and vote whom you like or your interest aligns with rather than collecting money(Blood money) to vote.

All your replies boil them to profanity of Nigerians. No right thinking Nigerian should be given money or collect money to vote his/her candidate

The bye election results did not favour them, as they are known not to take responsibility for anything, they would rather point fingers

Yes , I support it. Because that's the only time the politicians always remember the voters. That won't make the voters to vote for them though

It's wrong bro. That's not how to build a society

For instance in Kosofe, Moyo doesn't need to buy votes before he is voted for, because of the work everyone sees he does. When Raji Fashola was governor, he didn't need to buy votes.

Let us go out and vote without selling our votes.

If we want politicians to remember us, then let us choose right politicians

Didn't ADC also try to bribe the voters? Would you have written this epistle had ADC won most of the poll.

It's only when things don't favour you guys you write epistle like this

Bro, am I an ADC supporter?? Even at that it would still be condemned from ADC...

No one should indulge in such evil acts

This is Africa election except if you are not being sincere with yourself. Have the Nigerian police stopped taking bribes?

If I wanted to vote APc and the same APC give me money, what do you think I will do? I’d collect the money and vote them.

If I wanted to vote PDP and APC give me more money (cos pdp will still offer their), I’d vote for APC. Do you know why? Cos both the pdp and the APC are useless fools.

I’d only vote Peter Obi for free. Cos he is the cleanest politician as far as I’m concerned. The rest of them na crap. However, I won’t vote Peter Obi again if he cannot guarantee that he can protect my vote.

We are culturally more related to the Arabs who see nothing wrong in having no democracy.

Around 70% of the world are not living in democratic countries, so those of us who have lived in very democratic countries, have to continuously preach the good news to others.
