Why should citizens question every candidate, including you?
Because this country belongs to you, and you deserve plans that can be examined, not just promises. I am asking the young person who wonders if their vote matters, the parent who has lost faith, and the worker who is tired of waiting to listen closely, question every candidate, demand plans that can be measured, and protect your vote from intimidation. This is how we choose our course together.
Where this comes from

The coming election offers us a peaceful way to choose our course. To the young person who wonders whether one vote matters, to the parent who has lost faith in promises, and to the worker who has grown tired of waiting: this country is yours. Listen closely. Question every candidate, including me. Demand plans that can be examined and promises that can be measured. Protect your vote and refuse intimidation.
Bola Tinubu says Nigeria has crossed the Red Sea and that there must be “no looking back.” Let him come down from Aso Rock and meet the Nigerians still struggling to get to the other side. Looking back at a government’s record is a citizen’s right. It is how we decide whether those who hold power deserve more time.
We have looked back. We have counted what fuel costs, what food costs and what a wage can still buy. We have seen families waiting for relief while government asks for more patience. We have heard promises of prosperity from a President who cannot show millions of Nigerians where to find it.
