Veteran Nollywood actress, Omotola Jalade has urged Nigerians to vote credible candidates and stop choosing the lesser evil as Nigeria prepare for the next general elections.

Speaking in an interview with New Telegraph, Omotola was quoted as saying, “So, it’s tough because we have lots of credible people coming out. Some of them are coming out quite late and a lot of people are confused as to what to do and how far that would go but what I keep telling Nigerians is that, don’t allow people to suppress and intimidate you a second time.

“Don’t choose someone because others want the fellow to win; that’s you allowing your vote to be like your cage or prison. Free yourself, vote for someone even if it’s just two of you that will vote. What I mean is, waste your vote if your conviction is that the candidate is good enough.

“If they are saying you are going to waste your vote, waste it, at least vote your conscience. There are many people who might be thinking just like you, so don’t think you are voting for someone won’t count because you don’t know what others are thinking. Let’s support credible people, we can’t continue to choose the lesser evil, we have to break out of it”.
