I thought i was going to see a different revolution from the usual noise and placard protests that had been the norm in Nigeria and other climes.

Sincerely, i was looking forward to seeing Sowore leading some Nigerians to INEC's head office in Abuja to demand for electronic voting(E-voting) and 'forward match' the other comrades to NASS for the amendment of the Electoral Act in use to accommodate e-voting.

E-voting, with your Bank Verification Number, is the real revolution to set Nigeria on a new path because:

1 - it will make the votes of the electorate to count;
2 - ends thuggery and rigging;
3 - electioneering campaigns and elections will be issue based;
4 - the middle-class or educated elites will determine our leaders as against what we have now(godfathers);
5 - candidates that are prepared for office will contest;
6- 2nd term, in office, will no longer be a guarantee except when there is visible evidences of performance;
7- cost of election will reduce drastically(under #2bn);
8- result manipulation will be difficult to implement or eliminated;
9 - recycling old politicians will naturally go away with time;
10 - non-closure of the economy since you can vote from anywhere provided you have access to the internet; and
11 - no under age voting.

Nigeria will be the "United States of the World" few years from now should she embrace E-voting.
