Your Vote Is Not for Sale: Patriotism Begins at the Polling Unit

As election season approaches, Nigerians must look beyond rallies, jingles and empty promises. The choice made at the polling unit will shape our schools, hospitals, roads and livelihoods for the next four years. Vote-buying may offer temporary relief, but its cost lasts far longer. A cup of rice or a small cash payment can become years of poor governance, inflated contracts and hardship. Your PVC and fingerprint are not commodities; they are your voice in deciding Nigeria’s future. We should choose leaders based on character, competence, compassion and courage. We need public servants who understand the daily struggles of workers, traders, farmers, teachers, nurses and unemployed graduates. Vote with conscience, not sentiment or desperation. Patriotism begins at the polling unit.
