Legendary Nigerian music mogul and beatmaker, Don Jazzy, has urged Nigerians to shun vote buying. The Mavin boss further stated that he understands it might not be easy to resist selling one’s vote as “ vote-buying has corrupted our electoral process.”
Describing vote-buying as a menace, the music producer via his verified Twitter account told his fans to focus on the long-term gains if they vote for the right leader.
“I know stopping the menace of vote buying that has corrupted our electoral process might not be easy. I can only urge Nigerians to be more mindful of the long-term gains of voting the right people into offices despite the attempts to financially sway their voting decisions,” he said.
Don Jazzy further advised his fans and followers to desist from being “tools of disruption and violence that could mar our elections.”
“We have a duty to sensitise ourselves to avoid being tools of disruption and violence that could mar our elections and disenfranchise voters at the polls. People should be able to exercise their rights without fear of coercion or intimidation,” he said.
