A few random thoughts:

I was talking with one of my bigger political brothers, and he said the @OfficialPDPNig has to change.

We have to:

1. Interrogate why we appear to have been ‘rejected’ by the North. Is it our ideology, our messaging, or just the Buhari phenomenon?

2. Develop a truly national ideology that accommodate the capitalist character of the South with the more socialist focus of the North. Can we find a middle ground?

3. Realize that we need to engage the youth. They’re the largest voter demographic but the least interested.

4. Fix the electoral process. Right now the system allows the North dominate in a way that isn’t democratic. This WILL drive other regions to seek alternative avenues of (un)democratic expression.

5. Find new, visionary leaders(hip). I love @Atiku, but if he loses his court case he (& his followers) must realize he needs to step into a different leadership role. BOT Chairman? Elder Statesman a la OBJ?

6. Automate the registration process. It’s ridiculously easy to do.

7. Have a youth conference ASAP. Not a jamboree where youths come and share money and take selfies. One where the future of the party as a youth-powered F1 speedster is designed and executed.

8. It’s an administrative issue, but from 7 above fix our broken polling agent system.

What do you guys think? Share your thoughts. Oh, and I hope you played your party by voting today.
