In ensuring that the Okigwe Senate Re-Run Election becomes free and fair, the Citizens Centre for Integrated Development and Social Rights (CCIDESOR) has continued to partner with Independent National Electoral commission (INEC), Imo State towards making sure the election goes according to the tenets of democracy.
CCIDESOR noted that the needed awareness and sensitization as the election draws near close must be heightened so that citizens who are the real beneficiary of good governance are adequately kept abreast of the update of the election so that no one is disenfranchised in the election.
CCIDESOR urges citizens to vote for candidate of their choice without having to be coaxed to voting for somebody who has not convinced them of his/her availability, adding that they should vote for candidate whose campaign promises are tangible, accessible and realistic and not those who make bogus promises without plan of achieving them.
‘It is an era of realistic campaign promises and the need to understand that political decisions determine economic well-being of the citizens is key in every election, while urging citizens to come out en-masse and exercise their fundamental rights’, CCIDESOR submitted.
