I have seen what the ruling party has done over the past eight years and I have seen enough.
The fact is that we want change in this country.
Let's see if another party can do better.
Life is insecure.
I was in the Egyptian capital, Cairo, early this year and what I saw made me envious. At 0200 people were walking around, vehicles were going by - there was no fear.
Here there are some areas where you cannot move out of or into during the hours of darkness. You can only go there in day time. We have so many bandits here.

NIGERIAN VOTERS' VIEWS

Millions of people are not employed and we have not seen any drastic measure being implemented to change this.
I have four children and they are in school. I have to pay for the younger ones to go to private primary schools because the government ones are so bad.
However, sadly, my child at secondary level has to go to a government school because I cannot afford the secondary private education fees. I wish I could.
Our country should give us an education system that makes us proud.
And don't even talk about health to me - it is not guaranteed for poor Nigerians. You cannot go to a hospital and get drugs.
There is no care from this government.
