Over the years many commentators have publicly made the call for NOTA, or none of the above, to be included as a choice on the ballot paper for both national and local government elections.
Given today's political realities, if NOTA was offered as an option, it would attract many of us voters, who are seriously disenchanted with both of the main political parties.
It would also allowed the Elections and Boundaries Commission to tally this huge disaffection a large segment of the population has with mainstream politics, thereby giving great impetus to the emergence of a third, national, open and transparent political movement to rescue this beleaguered nation.
So, please EBC, include NOTA on the ballot paper for the upcoming general election in 2015
