We need election or voting to be able to get it right because if you don't have a good leader, no one would approve such law for revolution. Take for instance, the NDC Presidential candidate Peter Obi has already declared that he is only going to one term. Even though I know that he may also go for a second term later but his intention and stand against political tyranny and corruption. In summary, to get a revolution, you need voting.
Are you kidding me. Didn't you witness what happened in the last election. So with your statement, you think Nigeria has been having a free and fair election. Or you didn't hear when Tinubu said "I know you guys didn't vote for me". If only very few people voted for him, how did he get into office? Connect the dots please.
And what is wrong if a right candidate go for second term. Or you are idolising leaders who are making you suffering. To get a revolution, you need no voting. You can't possible think your vote will count this coming election. When Tinubu has bribed everyone. Bro, it's all around you. Every dirty secrets that you think it's hidden it's all opened. If and only if you look closely.
I may have to adjust a bit and fit this two concepts into one which is Voting and Revolution. In your own description of what a revolution implies, you should understand that Nigeria has gone too deep into corruption of which, to achieve revolution, you must first get the balloting (Voting) right in the sense that the current leaders we have now in Nigeria are not the type of leaders that can pass that bill for your kind of revolution.
When you talk about not allowing anyone to step their foot there again on the seat but you also know that laws are passed by two-thirds of the federal house of assemblies. If you check our national assembly now you will see several people who have been there since over 4 tenures and still counting. After spending many years in the senate, Ned Nwoko still contested for the primaries to return to the senate and finally lost to Okowa. If not that he lost the primaries, he could have returned again to the senate.

You made a solid point by connecting voting with revolution because true revolution in a democratic system does not always begin with violence or protests, it begins with the ballot box. Nigeria’s major problem today is that the same political class keeps recycling itself into power for decades, making it difficult for real reforms to happen.
For any meaningful revolution to succeed, the citizens must first take elections seriously and vote out leaders who benefit from corruption and bad governance. Laws are made by the National Assembly, and as long as the same people continue occupying those seats for multiple tenures, expecting them to pass laws that would reduce their own influence becomes unrealistic. Your example about politicians spending many years in the Senate clearly shows how deeply rooted the system has become. That is why political awareness and proper voting are important. Even if no leader is perfect, supporting candidates who openly speak against corruption, abuse of power, and political tyranny is a step toward national change.
In the end, revolution without voting may create temporary noise, but voting with the right mindset can create lasting change. Citizens must first reclaim the power of their votes before expecting a political revolution to succeed.
He made no solid point. How do you think they recycle themselves into power? By cheating bro. That's what they do. I am still surprised that you think your votes count with what has been happening and will still happen. Revolution is not about voting bro. Even your last paragraph revolution without voting is temporary noise. Really. Damn. I don't know what to say again. Here I thought we are somehow close to getting it right. We are still far. More suffering loading then.
