Andrew KemohKeili held a brief meeting in his constituency to sensitize them on the registration process.
The meeting was held in his constituency to educate his people on the ongoing registration, so that they will be able to cast their votes in the 2018 elections.

The meeting was attended by members of the SLPP, youths and other stakeholders.
Keilli said he was pleased to see everyone and stressed that the coming elections will be for everyone but it will be more for the young folks because they are the future leaders.
“Many people will come out to rally but would not register. It’s very important that all of us are registered so that we can cast our votes because our votes will be speaking for us.”
 He reminded the young people about the war that killed many and made many to suffer just for the democracy they are enjoying today because according to him, people were not given the privilege to vote for whom they want but were forced to vote under gun point.
He described the democracy they have today as a ‘’hard democracy’’.
“Now that we are allowed into the polling booth to vote freely, it’s an advantage and we should not waste it. There is a very good chance for our party this time around compared to the previous elections and for that reason, we should register and get our party back to power,” he stressed.
He explained that they have a lot for the young people in their manifesto and that with unity and determination plus hard work, they can still make it happen.
He maintained that if only they get registered and cast their votes in the 2018 elections, their party will be back in power.
“Young people who have reached the voting age must be registered because their votes count a lot.”
He said that there is a reason to vote, because all votes are equal, adding that it doesn’t matter whether  one is young ,old or a professor in a university, they all have one vote.
  He pleaded to all present at the meeting to go out and register and to get others in the hood to register too.
“As long as you are an SLPP member, you should take this registration very seriously,” Keilli reiterated
 He also said that SLPP must take this stages, from registration down to the election day, very vital and that party officials should be very vigilant as elections rigging starts with registration.
‘’If you do not get register to vote  you will be blamed if your choice of president, minister, councillor, honourable is not chosen and you will have no voice to complain about,’’ he said.

He concluded by thanking all, and urged them to put in more efforts in the process to get register and also promised to continue his sensitization drive.
