The Next Ten Days

The hustings have officially begun.

This year's hustings will not be the same as before. There will not be any mega rallies. Instead, hustings will go virtual on your mobile phone, laptops and TVs due to Covid19. As our goal is to bring you the news that matters, elections will be part of the news for the next 10 days. As mentioned, we strive to be apolitical. Unlike other sites with biases in reporting, we will bring you news of both incumbents and oppositions regardless if it is good or bad. As the days progress towards elections, tempers tend to flare. We acknowledged that different views will emerge in comments and we welcome it. However, we do ask that comments to be cordial and not malicious. Like our stance on Covid19 - This page is a safe ground for all.
