He said, “I have raised some fundamental issues about the morphology of politcal party primaries because some patterns were a little bit troubling. While many countries have young aspirants, there is still a lot of gerontocracy in ours.
“Older people are still playing the major roles. I have also expressed fears that there were very few female candidates that emerged unlike other countries where females are becoming very cardinal.

“So, I think the churches and Islamic leaders in mosques have to work together with INEC and enlighten our people and tell them, ‘don’t give up, continue to make effort’. I think that is the message, people should not just say, ‘let me collect money it doesn’t matter.’ No, it matters now that we have the BVAS, let’s hope and pray that the BVAS would work properly and if they work properly it means every vote will count,” he emphasized.
