Two Election Strategies of APC in Warri South Constituency worthy studying.-

1. The candidates funds his election, mobilizes and motivates party members across the different factions and encourages them to work together for a common goal. Probably the only candidate that did that.

Prosecutes the election with vigour and allows many other leaders and members of the party space to play their respective roles.

Does not collect money for campaign from any one, but receives supports in kind and merger contributions like 1k, 2k from the grassroots including people who do not belong to any party.

Records over 4000 votes and believes his election was rigged and proceeds to the Tribunal up to the highest court of law without a single party support.

2. Another approach is a candidate with a godfather receives bulk campaign and election funds from several party sources, isolates party leaders, has no grassroot acceptance, comes on board with loads of legal issues, divides the party further and goes into the election with 2000 votes

Boasts of 13 SAN in Tribunal and never files any petition but claims to have conquered.

These are two approaches available today even as the LGA elections approach.

The two models are equally good; right?
