WATCH VIDEO: Tchidi Jacobs drops ‘My Vote’

“As Nigerian inches toward an election which has been dubbed the “most closely contested since June 12″ by observers worldwide, what faces Nigerians is not a choice between candidates or political parties, but a choice between Anarchy and peace, unity and discord, hope and despair. What faces our generation is a choice to preserve or destroy Nigeria,” says Tchidi Jacobs, the producer of ‘My Vote’.

He further says, “The Nigeria dream, that ideal nation, which we all desire, is possible, and it begins with our commitment to getting there, not as political parties, or representatives of our respective tribes and religions, but as one united people. With #MyVote, we re-affirm that power belongs to the people, we re-assert the power of the voice, and reclaim our ownership of our franchise, our power to choose our leaders through a free process, without blackmail or propaganda.

“We are raising the awareness of young people, about the power of their votes to shape the future, and we are emphasizing the need to preserve the unity of Nigeria regardless of what happens come March 28. We are raising our voices in solidarity, with millions of Nigerians across the world, who want this nation to stay together in peace. The Film, which is a poem, is performed by Seven Voice Artistes known as Seven Voices One Nation, with each voice reflecting a different segment of the Nigerian voting populace.” Written, Produced and Directed by Tchidi Jacobs, The Cast includes: Olufemi Adu, Godswill Urombo, Theadus Ibe, Damilola Aina, Uche Uwadinachi and T-Jacobs.
