Chief Agasha, who is over 80 years old, expressed his satisfaction with the credibility and peacefulness of the electoral process and stated that he had voted for the candidate of his choice. He acknowledged that some politicians tend to forget their promises to voters once they assume office, but he remained steadfast in his conviction that the power to elect leaders was an essential responsibility of citizens.
"I came from Sabon Anagada, which is about two kilometres from here," Chief Agasha said. "I am over eighty years old now, from what I have witnessed so far, I love what I am seeing, it is a good process so far. We suffered for the candidates and at times when they get into office they forget us, but we will still vote for the person that we want."
Despite his age, Chief Agasha's determination to vote and ensure that his voice was heard in the selection of leaders was undiminished. He stressed the importance of peaceful elections and expressed his appreciation for the peaceful atmosphere at the polling unit. "We are here to select our leader. As you can see there is no problem anywhere and everything is peaceful," he said.
Chief Agasha's commitment to the democratic process serves as a reminder that every citizen has a role to play in shaping the future of their community and nation. His determination to vote despite the challenges of age and distance is a testament to the enduring value of democracy and the power of citizens to effect change through their participation in the electoral process.
