Twenty Things We Learnt From

#NigerianElections2023

•You can win an election without the support of the incumbent President.
•Peter Obi's candidacy proved that even when divided into three, the Islamic vote will still defeat the Christian vote.
•Ninety-three million people registered to vote, but only twenty five million actually voted. It is very doubtful that Nigeria's population is really 220 million.
•Lagos is NOT a No Man's Land.
•Rufai Oseni is an Obidient propagandist, not a journalist.
•The main reason for the PDP's loss is because Peter Obi divided their vote. But for him, Waziri Atiku would have won hands down.
•Ego is no substitute for strategy. If Peter Obi had been more strategic, he would have been the sitting vice president today.
•Cyberbullying, threats and intimidation can win you a nomination but not an election.
•Some people are very vulnerable to mass hypnosis and hysteria.
•The Southwest and Northwest determine election outcomes if they unite.
•Many pastors and prophets hear from a strange spirit who lied to them that the next President will be Peter Obi.
•Over-reliance on so-called 'investigative journalists' made some candidates and their supporters overconfident.
•Web-based polling and polling done in English will always produce inaccurate results because a majority of Nigerians are not proficient in English.
•The quietness of the core Muslim North is not stupidity. They saw through Yes Daddy.
•Religion (both Christianity and Islam) was weaponised. Peter Obi, with his "Church, wake up and take back your country" comment, was the main culprit.
•The Sultan of Sokoto and Pastor Adeboye displayed exceptional maturity and rare wisdom. Most other clerics did not.
•Decisive Governors, like Wike and El-Rufai, can use their personalities to affect the voting patterns of their states.
•Aisha Dahiru Ahmed (Binani) proved that Nigerian women can be as tough as Nigerian men.
•The Naira re-denomination limited the influence of money in the last election.
•Some people will prefer a coup if they cannot have a President of their choice.
