Time for Citizen Action 📢
“Getting involved is the only solution. You don’t have to like politics, you have to get involved.“
Dr Donatus Okonkwo

Dear Active Citizen,
The Supreme Court has rendered its final decision on the 2023 presidential election: Bola Tinubu of the All Progressives Congress (APC) is president.
Now, let's dive into some numbers, because who doesn't love math, right? Out of the 28.63% of registered voters with PVC who showed up to the voting party, Tinubu snagged 8.79 million votes. Atiku wasn't far behind with 6.98 million votes, and Obi showed his muscle with 6.10 million votes. The plot twist? When you add up Atiku and Obi's numbers, they're like a dynamic duo with more votes than the declared winner! 🤯
Needless to say, there are more voters who are sad than happy. 😔
Now, the Supreme Court's word is the law. So, even if it feels like you're holding a wild card, it's time to shuffle the deck and play the game.
If you believe in a different future for our nation, you can't wait until the next elections.
The time is NOW!
