Use your PVC and keep it moving”. “All the candidates are not enemies, you don’t have to insult anyone because they do not support who you are supporting. A peaceful election starts with you.”. “Last 4 years my dad and I were on opposing sides, we aired our views over a glass of wine, we left the same house to go to the polling unit, casted our votes, his candidate won and we had some wine after again with no one gloating. Pls don’t lose friends/family over the elections.”. Pls stop fighting/insulting/arguing online, it’s a waste of time and energy.

The actor in the interview with Sunday Scoop said while it is wrong to bully people for not taking a stand, when one does not participate in the elections or the voting process, those who are looking towards making the country work will see such a person as a spoiler. Okon Lagos said; “Bullying people (including celebs) for not taking a stand in the forthcoming elections is wrong. It is within their right. However, I believe the need to make this country work should be a concern because the country is not working; at least not the way it is supposed to. I also see the frustration of people who want to fix this country. 
According to AY Comedian, most celebrities are scared to endorse their favorite presidential candidates and political parties because they fear they might be blacklisted from the industry. AY Comedian made this disclosure on his Twitter page describing celebrities as “slaves of fear” during elections. He added that when celebrities take stands with political candidates, they are attacked by clueless thugs who are ready to do anything for their selfish interests. He tweeted; “Most celebs have become slaves to fear during elections. Whenever they publicly take a stand on any political candidate of their choice, they are either BLACKLISTED or ATTACKED by clueless thugs who would do anything to secure their own interests. Stop putting them under pressure.” Most celebs have become slaves to fear during elections.
