The Eternal Brothers Club, a humanitarian and social – waxing organisation says it has fully mobilised its members to participate in the ongoing Continuos Voters Registration (CRV) exercise in actively preparing for the 2027 general elections.
The club made up distinguished individuals from the political, business, academia and other strata of the society says members have massively and positively reacted to the ongoing exercise being conducted by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC).
Dr Kelechukwu Okezie, the Deputy President of the club made the disclosure in an interview noting that members would not be left out in the processes heralding the 2027 general elections in the country.
“Members are expected to elect leaders of their choices in all positions available in the elections and this can only be done through the instrumentality of voting.
“The PVC ensures the exercising of this franchise and members who have not been registered by INEC to vote have been full mobilised to do so.
“We also extend the same noble message to Nigerians to participate in the exercise in sustaining the nation’s democratic ideals.”
He corrected the notion in some quarters that votes do not count in the country, noting that voting remains the only way to elect good leaders and reject the bad ones.
“Votes have counted significantly in the country with the election of unheralded persons into various positions in the last general elections, a vivid example.
“We have to come out en masse, vote and protect the votes as apathy towards voting gives room for the feared manipulations.
“The recent passage of the bill to adopt the electronic transmission of results by the Senate is a major boost for the quest and yearnings that votes should count.,”
The Club’s President, Hon Charles Akpu-Enika said the members were law abiding citizens of the country who are saddled with responsibilities of moulding and shaping the society.
“The electoral process is an opportunity to get things right in the country and we would not be left behind.
“We understand that sustaining the nation’s democratic process is a collective responsibility and responsiveness to such is a priority to us.
“The club has grown in leaps and bounds and has continued to meet the yearnings of the society in all ramifications..”
