For the past couple of
weeks, I have had the weirdest misfortune of listening to friends and former
colleagues, people that I hold in high respect espousing ideas that I did not
imagine any rational Nigerian would consider at this time. I have heard the
incessant clamouring for PVCs – and for a while I thought they were referring
to some plumbing device. On further inquiry, I came to understand that it has
to do with the upcoming elections.

*President Buhari |
I wonder how PVCs translates to electoral power when your votes are limited by the choices available to you. APC, PDP, are they not the same characters we ought to kick out of government? I am aligned with the position to suspend any absurd elections and call for a national referendum. The other insipid and malignant vituperation is the suggestion that President Muhammadu Buhari is fighting corruption and moving the country forward.
