Kwara Must Change Online Senatorial Polls To End Today

Leading Pro-Democracy group in Kwara State, Kwara Must Change (KMC) has announced that its 3 online senatorial polls ahead of the 2019 general election shall end today and it urges more people to participate in the poll before it is concluded.

The 3 senatorial polls are for Kwara Central Senatorial district between People's Democratic Party (PDP) candidate, Senator Bukola Saraki and All Progressive Congress (APC) candidate, Dr Ibrahim Oloriegbe, Kwara South senatorial district between APC candidate, Arc Lola Ashiru and PDP's Senator Rafiu Ibrahim and Kwara North senatorial district between APC candidate, Sadiq Umar and PDP Zakari Muhammed.

In a statement released on Wednesday, signed by its President Abdulrazaq Hamzat, Kwara Must Change stated that it believes that the result of the 6 days poll would indicate, to a great extent, the direction of the 2019 election in Kwara State.

The online poll currently running on Kwara Must Change (KMC) Facebook group and page respectively was created 6 days ago and it has been running ever since.

Experts have argued that, accurate predictions of elections can be critically important for business and social purposes. Households and businesses may base important economic decisions on the likely policies of a future government, if polls indicate a possibility of change.

Reliable polls would also help citizens make better informed plans ahead of time, rather than reacting chaotically to an unforeseen turn of events.

Analysts maintained that, although election polls attract a great deal of attention for their ability to predict the outcome of elections, their most important function is to help journalists and citizens understand the meaning of the campaign and the election.

Polls help to explain, among other things, what issues are important, how candidate qualities may affect voters’ decisions, and how much support there is for particular policy changes.

Kwara Must Change (KMC) therefore calls on all members of the public to carefully follow the poll on its facebook platforms and also participate.
