Voter Enlightenment Poem by Frank Adie

Voter Enlightenment



When you collect money to cast your vote
You will only be casting a corrupt vote, take note
When you vote corrupt politicians into power
You will definitely be the one that will suffer.
When you vote base on ethnic or religious sentiment,
You mortgage the future of your country's development.
When the money used to fund an election is gotten via corruption,
Such funds will definitely be recouped through corruption.
When a leader rides to power with the funds of corrupt politicians,
And you expect that leader to perform, then you need a physician.
When musical rhythm is produced with the drum of corruption,
Its accompanying dance step can never be that of incorruption.

Be wary of politicians who use money to acquire votes.
Be wary of candidates that are sponsored by corrupt politicians.
Be wary of candidates who spend so much during campaigns.
Be wary of yourself when you allow money influence your political decision.
