ELECTION: "FETCHING WATER WITH A SIEVE" BY AJAKAYE STRIDA

"Just my vote determining TOAA's downfall?

It can't be!"

"It can be...

let's match like ants to our polling unit,

or fly like birds?"

"Fly like birds but fast transition

steals more than available pennies"

"To vote is to fetch water with a sieve"

"A sieve? A sieve dislikes water, 

you know it!"

"Just save a drop with your vote,

others shall save their distinct drops with distinct votes for our candidate"

Preferred Candidate: 

All I beseech is that you save a drop of water in our sieve of hope. The language of democracy is competently spoken in the school of God and positive participation.
