Nigerians have been advised to use their votes wisely in the 2023 general election to resolve the lingering leadership question.
Lere Olayinka, the People Democratic Party (PDP) House of Representatives candidate for Ekiti Central Federal Constituency 2, gave the advise in his goodwill message on the 62nd Independence Day Anniversary of the country.
He said: “What Nigeria needs are good leaders and quality representation to move the country forward.”
Olayinka urged the people to be courageous enough to elect those who will change the story of the country from what it is now to that of joy and celebrations.
“At this point of our national history, this country needs good people to lead it back to its previous stand and to redeem its image as the giant of Africa.
“This present situation where Nigerians can no longer feed and move freely across the country must not continue.
“The people will have another chance of making things right by electing credible and development oriented people in 2023,” he said.
Olayinka, who celebrated his birthday by giving free petrol to Okada riders in his Okemesi Ekiti hometown, assured the people of his constituency, consisting of Ekiti West, Ijero and Efon local government areas, of quality representation, if elected in 2023.
He restated that his membership of the lower chamber of the National Assembly will impact positively all households in his constituency.
The PDP stalwart urged Nigerians to vote massively for all candidates of the party in the 2023 general election.
He noted that “the difference between the Nigeria of 2015 when one bag of rice was N7,000 and that of 2022 when the same bag of rice is over N30,000 is like the difference between life and death.
“In 2023, Nigerians should use their votes to bring life back to Nigeria and send those who brought death and untold suffering in 2015 out of power.”
The PDP House of Representatives candidate congratulated Nigerians for witnessing the 62nd independence anniversary of the country.
He prayed that God will make the next Independence Day celebration one in which the people will celebrate the birth of a new dawn.
