In few hours from now the good people of the United States will exercise their franchise by electing the world’s most powerful leader in an election that will change the cause of events, either in favour of Mrs Clinton or Mr Trump.
Some people fail to understand why someone in this part of the world will be so interested in an election that is conducted in far away US. Hence it is important to outline few reasons why some of us are interested in who become the leader of the United States.
The US is the greatest and the biggest economy on earth with a very huge and smart population that stands as the envy of the world. She is also the number one police officer of the world. This view is supported by the hegemonic stability theory. A theory which postulates that at each time in world history there is always a nation or a kingdom that every other nation looks up to for peace and stability. America is also a model for democracy, a nation with such a multi-cultural character should be praised for maintaining internal stability.
Such a nation with enviable achievement should be able to elect a leader that will maintain stability in our world. Every kin observer of US politics will agree with me that it is not always good for a Democrat to succeed another Democrat after two terms of eight years. The American party politics is played based on ideology rather than sentiments or parochialism.
While we agree that the two candidates have not shown the propensity for which their predecessors were known, it will be the best thing for America to elect Trump to that respected position. Mrs Clinton did very little during her time as Secretary of state; she rather increased the level of violence at the international level.
The war in Syria is partly as a result of the wrong policies of the Democrats which Clinton is part of. The relationship between Putin, the Russian leader and Trump will most likely end the war in Syria. Thus to postpone the third world war the American electorates especially at the level of Electoral College must do the needful.

Let me also correct the theory that Trump will send Africans back home. Trump never said that, rather he said something to the fact that if one has lived in the US for ten years without papers that he will send such a person home. Sentiments apart, serious minded nations usually use their population census to plan for economic development, they try to ascertain the number of persons in each city with near exactitude. How can you live in another man’s country without a record?
While we can only voice our opinions here in Nigeria, it is left for the good people of America to elect their leader, our leader. Mrs Clinton is strong, no doubt but Trump will bring peace to our world, control liberalism, maintain American economy, restore American visa lottery for indignant Nigerians and most importantly avert the third world war since he will most likely work with the Russian leader and the young leader of North Korea.
You were right Roland. Only i didnt see it then.
