Who will you vote for? *Salut readizens,* It's no longer news that the Nigerian presidential election is around the corner. This will remove the incumbent president and institute a new one. We, or should I say am really looking forward to the end of this evil tenure. This present government under the leadership of Muhammadu Buhari as only plunged Nigeria into a state of chaos, blood shed, insecurity, banditry, tyranny, famine, rise in the poverty index among so many others. To be honest every sector of the country is a mess. Even the educational sector which was supposed to be at the forefront of the country's most Paramount sector is quietly bleeding and if care is not taken, education will no longer matter in this nation. I remember when we resumes for the first semester, at the very middle of the semester very few students resumed to take their academic pursuit serious. Other students didn't bother to resume as some have become big time internet fraudsters, some have secured legal jobs paying them well, some have become wealthy through innovations and the rest hence they didn't see the need to return by to school after a prolonged strike by ASUU. Presently, the Academic body (ASUU) is still on strike and has even extended the strike by another 12weeks. The most annoying thing is the government behaved indifferent to the cries of the academic union and the students in general. In my state, Ondo state, some soldiers and navy personnel were dispatched to the site where the student Union were holding a peaceful and well organised protest. They started shooting at the students and were shouting 'go back home'. This is the current state of the Nigerian academic sector. Who are you going to vote for?
Since the beginning of this year many politicians have to come out to show interest in contesting for the seat of the president of the federal republic of Nigeria. Despite the fact that the APC party raised their presidential form to a whopping sum of #100million, at least 20 candidates have purchased the form. This shows that there is money in this nation but it been hoarded and restricted to the very few people in power. Mind you most of this people contesting are holding government position either by election or by selection. Take for example, the vice president of Nigeria, Prof. Yemi Osinbajo, is also vying for the seat of the president but has not let go of his current office. Another annoying thing the aspirants are doing is that they don't even show any interest in the struggle between the government and the academic union. No one has come out to say anything or offer any help in the matter. All they are concerned is the race to become the president of Nigeria. They are indirectly telling the Nigerian youth and the academic union to go to hell for all they care. Some times, I really wish I have some kind of superpower or that I can create a powerful militant group, I would make sure non of them remain alive peacefully. These people have the money that can even pay the debt Federal government is owing ASUU they just won't do that. Okay imagine 20 people (definitely more than that) paying #100millon each, that's #2 billion naira! This could pay part of the debt Federal government is owing ASUU, but no, they won't help the students atleast non of their children studies in this nation. Not to deviate too much from the topic jare, so the election is near, who would you vote for (P.S: DON'T TELL ME JESUS CHRIST Oπ He is already king of kings πππ) Here are some popular aspirants: Ahmed Tinubu Prof. Yemi Osinbajo Atiku Abubakar Dr. Bukola Saraki Mr. Nelson Wike Mr. Udom Emmanuel Aminu Waziri Tambuwal Sen. Bala Muhammed **Note: a total of 29 men And 6 women have shown interest for the presidential post of Nigeria.** So choose wisely and prayerfully. For me, I'm still considering sticking to political apathy although I have gone to register for my PVC, but if I see a candidate that I think is trustworthy and won't destroy Nigeria more than it been destroyed, then I would definitely go for him/her. Till then, I remain faithful to apathyπ₯π Let me here your opinion in the comment section, WHO WOULD YOU VOTE FOR? @Aimure already jokingly said the person that would put an end to ASUU strike, isn't that so? Come and clear yourself oπ
Thanks for reading this article, please don't forget to hit the π button it won't take your time. Thanks a bunch

Omo none of them are trustworthy, I just pray God change the mind of the person that will enter... We are in Nigeria and I'm sure they all already know who's going to win, that's the power of politics
That's true, we the voters are mere pawns and are just being made to feel like we have a say in the governance of Nigeria
All of them na the same, from A to Z. Make them get out.
As in ehh, make them go sleep

How will you mention popular aspirants and you omit Peter Obi? Go check out election polls conducted on nairaland and Twitter by various influencers, Peter Obi won in all of them
No vex, obi campaignerπππ I go edit and put am
I should probably just vote for a woman for a change
Why? Pray tell meπ
Since all the men we've had in the past have brought hell to earth in the name of rulling, a woman might probably do something different. I'm just saying.
Hmm, I guess I'd just go with your flow. But you do know some female leaders have displayed the highest mismanagement of government office in Nigeria right? Diezani, Anyawu, etc being examples
Same way Salami did something different π
Be calming down brosπ π
I am calm π
Keep it up π
