Vote buying has been a practice from the beginning of time.
Politicians that believe they have to win an election with a "do or die" mentality will do anything to gain or hold onto power.
Giving money in exchange for votes is done without the slightest shred of decency...
If we don't take strong action to stop vote buying, our fledgling democracy might stay that way.
Those that were arrested by EFCC in the just concluded election in Osun would be left off the hook.
I am not really sure if anybody has been prosecuted for electoral offences ...
The effects of vote buying are numerous: It would not allow for transparency thereby allowing wrong individuals to be in the corridor of power.
This acts must stop...
