4th Law of Democracy: Do not sell your vote

May 19, 2010 Leave a comment

Do not sell your vote:

“The act of selling your vote is the betrayal of the aspirations of a people; it is morally treasonable and is punishable with a curse of unfulfilled dreams. A vote sold is a destiny forsaken”.

Lai Labode,

ADIEU UMORU

“The degree of selflessness in a leader determines the extent of the purity of his purpose and sanctity of his influence on his people . I pray that history will judge Yar’dua for his good intentions and belief in a truly great Nigeria rather than the evil machinations of those around him in his last days who laboured to benefit from his prolonged sickness . President Umoru Musa Yar’dua was a man of great intentions and probably one of the few 21st century African leaders never accused of enriching himself at the expense of his people. May his gentle soul rest in peace. Amen” Lai Labode
