To be able to predict and influences voters' behavior, political parties and political consultants need to identify determinants of voters' behavior. This study is pursued to identify the motivation behind a sample of voters who cast a ballot in the 2012 and 2016 presidential elections. Structural equation model Amos was used with a sample of 493 voters. The objective of this is to conceptualized a strategic direction and propose a framework for voters' behavior determinants. The findings revealed that political issue directly influences voting intention. The findings further established that; Voters' trust and loyalty mediate and moderate the relationship. We therefore recommended that, Management of the various political parties should pay particular attention to these political issue variables in their quest to influences voters' voting intention.
