Ambi Coopoosamy: Every single vote will make a difference. It is important to vote because we are citizens of the country. Some people don’t want to vote because they don’t trust the people who are running the country. But it’s even more reason to vote.
Graham Beaumont: For your voice to be heard on this fresh Thursday. My vote will make a difference. It’s their prerogative.
Thabani Bengani: I think it’s good to vote because it is my right and whatever issue I have the government can attend it. It is no use complaining if you don’t vote.
