Zubair: today is the day for gubernatorial elections, Ade what are you waiting for? let us go and cast our votes for candidates of our choice
Ade: i have no interest in an election which would not yield any dividend of democracy. Our political elites are only concerned about their interest when they get to the position of authority. For crying out loud, i have made up my mind that i will not vote again.
Zubair: haba Ade! dont you remember Abraham Lincoln’s word that all men are not just, all men are not true. But… for every scoundrel there is a hero, that for every selfish politician, there is a dedicated leader!. come on , go and cast your vote so that we can choose the right person for the position and change the political, economic and social directions of our great state
