2023 General Election in Nigeria || A survey and sensitization activity

over 1 year ago

For those that are not already aware, 2023 is going to be another defining year in Nigeria as we are going to have another general election where people are going to elect in people to occupy different positions as president, governors, senetors, house of representatives and state house of assemblies.

Already, preparetions have stated as all the political parties have already selected their candidates to these different positions and the citizens also are preparing to vote.

In view of these, I belong to a NGO - AIDE Initiative, and we carried out a survey and a sensitization activity to know people's opinions and to sensitize them about the coming election on how important it is to get the voters card and to go out to vote on the day of election.

During the survey and sensitization, we visited the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) office in Area 10, Abuja. Unfortunately, what we met there was not pleasant because the officials refused to attend to the people that day which made them angry and there was riot which needed the intervention of the police.

I took my time to interview some persons which included a Nigerian actress and musician. I also captured some moments of rioting on video which are all in this video.

The pictures are myself and my crew that carried out the activity.

I hope and pray that we will get it right this time around as a nation.
