A Nigerian woman recently sparked a significant online debate after publicly stating that she shouldn’t face economic hardship because she chose not to vote in the last election. Her unconventional viewpoint has drawn a mix of surprise and criticism from social media users, many of whom were taken aback by her perspective.
The statement, which she posted on her TikTok account, stirred immediate reactions as she shared her view in her native dialect, explaining that the current economic challenges should only impact those who participated in the election. According to her, those who didn’t vote should be exempt from facing the consequences.
“I don’t even have a voter’s card,” she explained. “Can they separate us, so that those who voted are the ones suffering, and those of us who didn’t vote should enjoy?”
The woman’s comments have attracted a flood of reactions from internet users, who flooded the comment section with their varied opinions on her bold stance. While some found humor in her request, others expressed frustration, arguing that the act of voting is a collective responsibility and not participating also contributes to the country’s challenges.
