Nigeria Decides - Presidential Elections - April 16

Posted April 15, 2011 · Charles O

My support was for Buhari until news of meetings with Babangida, Atiku, Ciroma, &co started to emerge in the past few days. As it currently stands, I have suspended my personal support for and endorsement of Buhari until I convince myself that this isn’t an Arewa Agenda. If I don’t reach clarity by tomorrow, I’ll have to be satisfied with whomever wins a free and fair election (in other words, the person for whom the majority of Nigerians vote.) By the way, I do not see a contradiction in urging my fellow Nigerians to vote and defend their votes while I, myself, abstain from an explicit endorsement (particularly since I will not be within the Nigerian geographical space on 4/16). For me, an election that reflects the will of the people is a great start for consolidating our democracy. How about you? Who has your endorsement?
