Local Council Election..........

This would be the three words that you would hear very often these days. The whole country is busy campaigning for their candidates. People do debate who is good and who is not. Everyone is planning for something great. Registering for the vote has begun. Election commission is really busy to make this a transparent one. 

All the parties want to get their majority and show that they have the public support. This is at core between the two biggest parties i.e. MDP and DRP. Everyone asks their members to win the election. Phone inbox is getting full of those messages. Everyone is asking to vote them. But then you can only vote for few.

In my island there are 13 candidates running for the council election. 5 from the opposition party 2 from the ruling party and 6 independent candidates. Even though these six candidates run as independent they are being labeled as from some party. My island is very much divided into two parts yellow and blue. Both the parties are asking to vote for their candidates. 

I however would not go to a specific colour. This election is the most important election concerning specific to our communities. The effectiveness of the council would mean so much development in different fields. We would want a council fighting for our rights and development s rather than being into so much politics.

Everyone has started their campaign officially and everyone is asking to vote for their favourite candidate. I have also decided on few and still there is one or two more to go. Our motor in this election is “an eligible youth for the responsible community”. I ask each of my community people to vote for youth who you believe would be a responsible one. 

Let’s change the system…. Let’s bring fresh and capable youth in front… lets be unite..
