Few days from now, it’s election time. I hope everybody has shortlisted already the candidates that you will vote based on your set criteria...My criteria include candidates’ track record as government servant, professional and personal background, campaign strategy which is not detrimental to other’s people personal life, realistic platforms and convincing response to questions on problems that our county is facing now like poverty and corruption.
Everywhere, you will see and hear…VOTE WISELY. I just hope these two words will be internalized (this may have a deeper meaning) by all of us. In every circle you will shade corresponding the name of candidate you choose, coupled it with a prayer that you are choosing the right person for the post with God’s intervention. For every money you receive from overly generous candidates, think of it as their donation to the church course through you and not as an influential factor in making your votes.
This May 10 is our time to act. Let us conscientiously exercise our right to vote….Instead of giving money to our disadvantaged fellowmen, this time, give them your wise vote. On May 10, do your children a favor…give them a good future in our country…give them your wise vote.
May the good Lord be with the voters and candidates on May 10 election.
