Read this before you cast your vote on Saturday

I am impressed to hear Mr. Peter Obi continually talk about fixing our economy, making mention of third world economies like Vietnam and Malaysia with little or no natural resources but have relatively descent exports.

We are doomed with poor leadership,and one of the worst cases of corruption have been linked to Both Ahmed Bola Tinubu and Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, they belonged to the class of people who have made Nigeria a failed state.

I will take a page from and quote the late Martin Luther King Jr “If a man has no job or an income, he has no life or liberty in the pursuit of happiness. He merely exists.”

We must put an end to massive corruption and leaders with no foresight. Its a shame for a country with abundant natural resources to have millions with no shelter, no health care and poor schools.

The average Nigerian child does not only lack good nutrition, he or she has never seen a doctor. We cannot continue like this. Most of our leaders have been liars and thieves. The borrowed culture which is religion have not helped us. The Christian majority from the south are very poor. They are looking for miracles because of the failed governments.

The majority from the North are very poor and uneducated. The pastors are getting rich every day at the expense of the poor. The Imam is buying houses in Dubai.

Who is fooling who? It’s time for us to collectively take our country back. You can fool some people sometimes, but you cannot continue to fool everybody all the time.

Remember, voting is your civic responsibility. If you don’t vote, you have no right to complain of any bad governance or political bandits.

Let’s forget about religion or ethnicity, let’s vote Peter Obi. A better Nigeria it’s possible.

Put an end to massive corruption.. Education is not a privilege, it is the right of every child. Health care is not for the rich only, and it shouldn’t be.

I have lived in Canada for over 35 years of my life and medical care is for the rich and for the poor.

Good Roads does not recognise whether you are Igbo or Yoruba or Edo. We must avoid accidents.

Police brutality most of stop. Military disrespect to civilians must stop. Nigeria Customs officers enriching themselves with our patrimony must stop.

Nigeria Immigration selling our passports to foreigners must stop. Nigeria Drivers Motors Union must stop illegal extortion of any kind. We are not living in a banana Republic.

Enough is enough!
