Next steps?

Start locally, join a party (preferably APC or PDP) at the ward level (No point starting your own party). Don't join alone, join with friends, family (you need numbers) etc.

Attend local meetings and let your local community feel your presence.
Touch their lives in a new way, educate them, empower them.

Infiltrate the system to the point where they trust you enough to elect you at ward level, that's your first win.

Next? Local Government/LCDA chairman. Run for it! canvass through all the wards, win!
By the time you are done with these 2 levels, it's already going to be 2023, but you are educated enough to understand delayed gratification.

Big Political wins don't come easy, there are people planning years ahead for the bigger roles, so if you are new, start small.
If you have the money (and trust me, you will need it) skip steps 1 and 2 and run for the house of assembly for your state constituency.

If you are new in politics, please don't attempt anything higher, except you have bastard money to spend.
If you really want to change Nigeria from the bottom, you have to accept that it is a journey that will take your lifetime, there's no point rushing it, cause you will lose and lose woefully.

The men that rule us guard power with a tight fist, it will never be freely served.
Let's start with these grassroots positions for 2023, that's how we start.

forget about the presidency, forget about the governorship, they are well beyond infiltration by any new structures.
Anybody that tells you that PDP or APC will not win the next Lagos guber and the Presidential elections is lying to you and sadly no amount of vex can change that.

Start small, start now!
