#CAMPAIGN FOR REFERENDUM AND NOT VIOLENT AGITATIONS! [NO.45]. –DR. DAVID OLUFON.  13th November, 2022.

NIGERIAN YOUTHS SHOULD HENCEFORTH GUARD ALL INEC FACILITIES PRO BONO!

One attack too many on government strategic infrastructures!

Outside of Correctional Institution and Police Station buildings across   Nigeria, the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), Offices have become targets of arsonists as the 2023 General Elections approach.

Two INEC Office Facilities in Ogun and Osun South West Nigeria were simultaneously attacked and conflagrated early Tuesday 8th November 2022, to disenfranchise 65,699 Nigerians whose Permanent Voters Cards (PVCs), were trapped in the Abeokuta inferno!

Nigeria's nascent democracy, a product of 30 years of illegal military occupation has witnessed quadrennial/off season electoral violence and all forms of malpractices from 1999 to date unabated!

The inordinate ambition for political power in the diarchy that should take the blame but consecutive administrations treaded the path of deceit that inadequate strength of security personnel in the Armed Forces, Police and para-military which is overstretched beyond limit was responsible!

According to INEC, there had been 50 attacks on its facilities in 21 States in recent years between February 2019 to date and hardly had anyone being caught, investigated or prosecuted so far!

Other Items destroyed in Abeokuta, Ogun State included 904 ballot boxes 29 voting cubicles, 30 megaphones, 57 election bags and eight electric power generators while only a portion of the Ede’s Office in Osun was burnt down!

A CALL TO NATIONAL DUTY FOR PATRIOTIC NIGERIAN YOUTHS!

Who were the criminal arsonists that attacked the two INEC Facilities? 

Indigenous youths who could scale perimeter fences with ease at an unholy hour of 01.40 am when law-abiding citizens were in bed? 

Youths with pre-meditated plans who also torched adjoining buildings with BREAD LOAVES heavily soaked in PMS (petrol)!

And who were the eyewitnesses of all the events which details were given with much accuracy?

The Local Youths who should have formed vigilante groups to watch over the facilities as contribution of their civic duties to the nation!

For the umpteenth time, We call on our youths – able-bodied men and women (60%) of the population to take advantage of the 2023 General Elections which will debut with the introduction of electronic BIVAS, the digital device that will capture both photos and fingerprints of all voters on the election dates and authenticate that every vote counted through electronic transmission of Ward Results to INEC Portals.

It is strongly believed that patriotic local youths in all the Local Government Areas of Nigeria can form formidable vigilante groups to monitor and protect all government institutions and buildings within their neighborhoods as their own contribution to national Security without expecting Naira and Kobo from any quarters instead of lending themselves to dubious politicians who do not care about their welfare! IF YOU SEE SOMETHING SAY SOMETHING!

We are championing and campaigning that there should be no violent agitations but that all patriotic Nigerians, especially the youths, should demand for REFERENDUM that will provide opportunity to vote for the enactment of a unicameral parliamentary constitution through which a PRIME MINISTER will emerge in 2023!

Of the four major political candidates making waves, none of them is fit to govern this country because they all have skeletons in their cupboards!

With a unicameral parliamentary system of government in place the youths will have the opportunity to elect one of their own candidate from the smaller parties or an independent candidate to fill the position of Prime Minister while several of them will become parliamentarians and a new Nigeria of our collective dreams will emerge!

A REFERENDUM EXERCISE TAKES PLACE IN ONE DAY AND EVERY DECISION VOTED FOR BECOME LAW AND SACROSANCT FOR IMPLEMENTATION BY THE GOVERNMENT IN POWER!
