I've come to realize that, our minds are based on voting, but have you come to ask yourself, if I'm voting a candidate or a political party. I assume y'all Know there's a great difference between voting a candidate and voting a party.

Life has been more hectic during the absence of @Rusty, though life has always been hectic here, it's way much. In as much as Rusty is tipping writers, I know people would be fully back here, I'm very excited that Rusty is actually back. @TheRandomRewarder is the only best friend I've got here.

Governorship Election in Nigeria

The first date released for the governorship Election was Saturday,13th March 2023, before it was adjourned and reschedule to Saturday, 18th March 2023.

The presidential election made in Nigeria here for two weeks ago, is still causing violence in some areas in the state because the populace aren't cool with the Candidate the INEC chairman announced to be the winner. When the presidential election was held on the Saturday 6th of March, result was released on Wednesday 10th March.

The candidate who seemed to be the winner was the candidate for the APC running party (Bola Ahmed Tinubu (BAT)), the INEC chairman announced BAT to be the winner of the election, but some of the populace disagreed which led to rioting and violence in some part of the country

I sat and Come to think it through in my mind that, "Are we even voting a CANDIDATE or a PARTY"

In Nigeria, we have a single party ruling us for decades of years now, and they aren't willing to lose the power to the opposition party which is PDP. We have a whole lot of party here but it's two of them that has been consistently ruling us which is APC and PDP

Some vote for Candidates not Party

What I meant about voting for Candidate and not party is that some citizens vote for their own candidate because they cherish and believe in the aspirant, no matter the which party the aspirant came from, they will still vote for the person, some voters vote because they have affinity for the candidate, some even votes because that candidate has been their helper long time ago, some could even vote because the aspirant is from their community and they felt the aspirant would develop the community when he's emerge.

Some citizens votes based on the fact that, fine! I don't know this person, but I believe he/she would make the state or country a better place to live in.

Some vote for the party but not candidate

In this case, we've a while lot of people which cast their voting based on the fact that love the party, or their parents are from that political party. Most of our parents that works in government or public offices, they are often threatened to cast their vote for that particular political party that was ruling when they were employed. In this case, even though the voter doesn't like the aspirant, he/she has no other option than to keep voting for that political party, in as much as they were the ruling party when they were employed to work. This is what I mean by some people vote for party and not candidate.

Final thought!

According to me, I'd prefer voting to a candidate of my choice that to vote for party. I can decide to vote for any candidate irrespective of the political party they came out from. People have this party hasn't been doing well, the party Isn't really at fault, it's the candidate because he/she is the one ruling us. I wish our governorship Election will be free and fair and without rigging

Nigeria is the master in terms of election rigging, when it comes it that, Fear THEM!!

Try to vote for the candidate of your choice and not because my friend voted for this particular political party I'm also voting that same party, it's not compulsory you have Same Choice of candidate
