POLITICAL PARTIES SHOULD EMBRACE INTERNAL DEMOCRACY

Democracy is defined as a system of government or organization in which the citizens or members choose leaders or make other important decisions by voting.

Democratic is also derived from democracy and it is a word used when relating to a country, organization, or system in which leaders are chosen or decisions are made by voting.

These above explicit definitions seem not to exist in the dictionaries of CCC citizens who have been advised to shun internal voting processes, but being told to do so at the national stage.

This just stinks of hypocrisy and citizens, of the CCC version should know that true citizens should not forfeit their basic rights to vote for leaders of their choice.

Voting is an open process that after its conclusion, has its results reflecting the will of the people.

The will of the people should not be subverted through using rhetoric that is shallow and malicious, both at party level and national level.

The `CCC citizens` should not be deprived of their right to express their will, internally in CCC and externally, that is in harmonized elections.

As shown by the serious preparations being made by government, the stage is set for free and fair elections in which the true citizens should not vote for handpicked councilors whom most of them are illiterate and can not even interpret articles in the urban councils act.

Members of parliament who always enjoy easy passage to the august house should this time around be given the boot, through not voting for them since they have proven that they come in as chancers and chancers will never take seriously their responsibilities, when elected into parliament.

The masses should not be taken for a ride and hoodwinked to elect a President who has no respect for his own party and ignores the virtues of internal party democracy.

The electoral process is a journey that has to be undertaken from the starting and up to the finishing line.

Every political organization that values and observes the dictates of democracy should allow its members to elect its party leaders, and candidates for elections, through voting processes.
