Our indefatigable Senator Stella Oduah sponsored a motion on
Motion on the need to grant voting rights to Nigerians in Diaspora.
The
Motion is designed to recognize the role of about 17million Nigerians in
Diaspora in exercising their franchise as our democracy deepens, as it is practised
all over the world. Nigerians in Diaspora contribute immensely to our economy
as they repatriate billions of Dollars yearly to cater to their families and
loved ones. In the same vein, considering their importance in shaping our
economic and social-political life here, they deserve to contribute towards the
growth of our democracy through voting in our elections regardless of where
they reside. It will also help the government to keep accurate data about
Nigerians in Diaspora.
