The money would be for my upkeep

Mrs. Olayinka Bakare, unemployed

I have a PVC but I am not ready to go out and vote on election day. The only thing that would make me leave my house on election day is if I am promised a job and if there is assurance that it is not just another promise that would go unfulfilled. I have been jobless since last year and things have really been hard for me. I started a business last year when I lost my job. I was selling meat but the business also folded up later. Now, I don’t even know what to do. Voting is the last thing on my mind. So, if anybody gives me money to vote for him, that money would be for my upkeep, not voting.
