🟢It was in the best interest of democracy, cost implications and the Youth in particular, that the National Assembly declined accent to the Electoral Act (Amendment) Bill 2021. The blackmail by the morbidly corrupt Evil Societies had started before then. But it intensified thereafter. Funds were rolled out by those who bank roll them. They cried louder.  🟢On a different level, masquerading as a youth advocate, Samson Itodo, young nouveau elite, is flying first class across the world, in and out of Nigeria to sell their 2023 plans. Ene Obi covers our TV screens with her wig, causing a shortage of artificial hair in Nigeria. She insults our President on national television.

In 1999, Nigeria returned to democratic rule. It was very surreal. It was a very happy feeling being counted as one from a democratic nation. And so Nigerians embraced democracy having been under military rule for many years. We had high hopes that within the shortest possible time, Nigeria will join the League of Nations in terms of democratic, economic, electoral and infrastructural reforms. Sixteen years down the line, Nigerians awoke from a great slumber to see that the sort of reforms brought by those who assumed power from 1999 to 2015 were not reforms Nigerians needed. What Nigerians needed were far removed from what was on the table. The CULTURE OF SHARING was firmly entrenched with the resultant  consequence the if one was not "Connected", his family was left behind, in abject poverty.
