Large-scale voter ignorance poses a serious danger to our emerging democracy after many years of civil unrest in our beloved country. It is particularly troubling at a time when the ruling party – The Unity Party – is questioning the credibility and integrity of both the National Election Commissions and the results of the October 10th presidential and legislative elections. The elections have shown that political leaders in our country don’t need to be competent, sincere or honest. If so, why didn’t the Unity Party join forces with the Liberty Party from the beginning to protest the elections. Why at this late stage, twenty days after the elections and less than nine days before the runoff election.
