interview with Punch, speaks on the general elections.
What would you say was responsible for the low
turnout of voters last Saturday?
"I'm sure the low voter turnout could be attributable
to a vaudeville of ratiocinations. The presidential
election attracted more voters ostensibly because that
was the political elephant and was therefore
occasioned with attendant publicity ballyhoo. A vast
majority of Nigerians were also righteously indignant
of the state of economic quagmire, political
phantasmagoria and social disequilibrium the
philistine and clueless government of President
Jonathan has plummeted the country.
They saw in the presidential election a sui generis
opportunity to get the yoke off their back and that
they did ferociously. This passion was not as frenzied
in the last election".
