So in my continuous bid for a better governance for Nigeria, I would like to inform my dear readers that we should be more concerned with the NASS elections than presidency. To me and my Aunt who dropped the hint for this write-up, the NASS is more important than the presidency.
Why?
The NASS consists of the Senators and House of Representatives. And they are the heartbeat of democracy. Take note; if we are to have good governance, it all begins with the NASS.
Why?
They represent us, they review budgets, contracts, pass bills that will improve the quality of the Nigerian society. So if we get it wrong at NASS, like electing poor representatives in governance, we will experience the same reoccurring stagnancy.
Most of the previous Senators and Reps don’t meet with their constituents, no town hall meetings with youths, women, men and general respectively. Thus, why they represent us poorly because they do not know the issues at heart of the populace.
So youths, be more cautious about that particular election than any other. We are not just talking about our future here, but the future of generations yet unborn.
Vote wisely.
