Some prominent Nigerians, who have huge numbers of followers by the virtue of their leadership positions, are believed to be capable of influencing the choice of voters in the February general elections.
Their recent utterances have been catching the attention of politicians in the build-up to the elections.
They have, at one time or the other,
expressed concerns over the likely outcome of the general elections,
which a section of the international community believes may lead to the
disintegration of the Nigerian state, if not properly handled.
Some observers are, however, of the view
that the utterances of these influencers and opinion leaders have been
sending fear to the spines of politicians, especially those who have
just won their parties’ tickets at the recently held nationwide primary
election.
As an individual, would you cast your votes this year based on the individual whom your religious or political leader favours?
