10 Commandments for Voters in the Constituency

  1. You have nothing to fear. Remember that your vote is a secret.
  2. Watch out for wolves in sheeps clothing. Do not vote for a party without knowing its aims and policies
  3. People who promise things that they never give are like clouds and wind that bring no rain: do not be misled by empty promises.
  4. Your vote is your power. use it to make a difference in your life, your constituency and your country.
  5. Do not vote for a party which offers money or food in exchange for your vote. Anyone who tries this is corrupt.
  6. Do not be afraid of the future. Vote and put your faith into action.
  7. Your vote is your choice: vote so that justice can flow like a river and peace like a mighty flood.
  8. We were born free; use your vote to ensure that we do not become slaves again.
  9. We are one nation made up of many political parties, as our bodies are made up of different parts. Respect and defend the rights of others to vote for the party of their choice without fear or intimidation.
  10. Remember your responsibility does not end on the day of election. Do not expect personal favours from those elected. Watch out for their actions and demand that they fulfill their promises.
