The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), Civil Society Organisations and electoral stakeholders have urged Nigerian electorates to vote out corrupt politicians from power in the 2019 general elections.
After an intense and explosive presentation of keynote addresses with robust audience participation at the flag off of a civic sensitisation campaign tagged “The Citizen’s Duty in Enthroning Good Governance” at the weekend, the stakeholders forum identified complacency, ignorance and gullibility of the citizenry as the manure that has sustained corrupt political leadership in Nigeria.
The guest speaker and Executive Director of Africa Rev. David Ugolor, charged Nigerians to organise themselves into rights and action groups and demand for credible leaders and good governance, using the 2019 general elections as a launch pad.
Also speaking, representative of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) Delta State at the event, Ugochi Nwaubani called on Civil Society Groups to mobilise and educate Nigerians to collect their Permanent Voter Card (PVC) and come out enmasse to vote, check voters apathy and high incidence of void votes.
