It is supported by an SMS platform and IVR (Interactive Voice Response) for those who are not literate IGO VOTE ( ) 2019 Elections Toolkit for Religious Leaders Page 8
10 Why Should You Care? It is hereby accordingly declared that sovereignty belongs to the people of Nigeria from whom government through this Constitution derives all its powers and authority. - Section 14(2)(a) of the 1999 Nigerian Constitution (as amended) The above subsection of the Constitution is not only noble, but the very heart of modern democracy. It is the power of citizens that empowers all other authorities in any democracy. It is therefore important to let citizens know that the O ce of the Citizen is the highest o ce in the land. Citizens must wake up to that consciousness and accept the responsibilities that come with it. Do NOT Discriminate Do NOT use possession of a Permanent Voter's Card (PVC) to grant access to your place of worship. It is noble to desire that all your congregants get their PVC and participate in the electoral process, but it is their prerogative to exercise their civic responsibility. As such, you can NOT penalize those who did not register to vote. To use a PVC to grant access to a place of worship; prevent congregants from serving or bene t from being a congregant is to go against the tenets of any faith that teaches love. Education and moral persuasion are more effective ways of getting your congregants to understand the importance of participating in the electoral process Elections Toolkit for Religious Leaders Page 9
11 What Can We Do? Elections are about critical numbers who show up to vote on election day. In 2015, 42.4% of registered voters, who are 15.3% of our estimated population determined our President and it parallels at all levels. Tell your congregation that they shouldn t only care about the Presidential race. Governors, Senators, House of Representatives members and State House of Assembly members all shape the policies that govern our lives. Some roles YOU can play: Ensure all information shared is veri ed. From the pulpit, encourage people to vote. It s their constitutional right and a part of their civic responsibilities. Reiterate that votes will be counted and their votes matter. Put election information in every bulletin. If you have video news, include it as well. Do NOT be partisan. Instead, encourage your congregation to score every candidate against values that promote a society that is governed with integrity, respect for human life, merit and any other values as they deem t that aligns with the teachings of their faith. If you have members that are vying for o ce, you can give them a platform to talk about their journey (but not campaign!). Pray for members that are contesting. Encourage members to join political parties if they are interested. For voting centres in your neighbourhood, provide tents, chairs, drinks and snacks as you can, to relieve the pressure. Send observers to voting centres to document challenges and escalate as needed. They can also volunteer while there Elections Toolkit for Religious Leaders Page 10
12 What Can We Do? How to Select Credible Candidates Don t vote for a candidate you do not know anything about! If a candidate is running again, what did they do before? Did they deliver on their previous promises? Are they accessible? N Do not sell your vote. Vote for candidates with these 5 values Competence, Capacity, Character, Compassion & Courage Read their manifestos and ask questions about their plans Elections Toolkit for Religious Leaders Page 11
13 Support EiE is available to: Visit to educate your congregation, at no cost. Work with your team on communications. Answer questions if it s di cult to contact INEC s Citizens Contact Center I! Visit INEC s o ce in your LG to pickup your Permanenet Voter s Card Monday to Friday (excluding public holidays). 9am - 6pm 0700 IGO VOTE ( ) govote@eienigeria.org Visit to know INEC s o ce in your LG 2019 Elections Toolkit for Religious Leaders Page 12
