Some pips will think APC stand a chance in akwa ibom. Dream on. Even with my soft spot for them...
With the card readers the results can easily be overturned if it was rigged, no need to protest.

The truth is, it's 5 times easier for PDP to win Lagos than APC win akwa ibom
Again when violence or protest is reported, you've got to question where? If there are 5 incidences of violence apparently in 5 polling units or wards, can one safely conclude that there was no elections and the results from thousands or hundreds of polling units or wards respectively are faked? To even think that there are 31 LGA in the state, how many of these can the APC comfortably claim victory?
If so then what happened to the card readers that were used, where they also faked.
I think that the essence of the card readers was to stop people from ballots stuffing and faking results.

Sorry if voters were accredited using the card readers as i know happen generally across the state then APC are just wasting their time.
As the card readers make elections difficult to rig, so also do they make election results difficult to cancel.

Hmmmmm? I find it funny the events are reported or is it presented in Nigeria.
Please when can we describe a protest as "massive". Wouldn't "violent protest" be more appropriate? For a protest to be massive it requires a mass of people possibly in the thousands.
However if tens of people stage a protest, I doubt if that should be termed massive. if for wont of showcasing the effect of such a protest, it better to call it violent where violence is a consequence of such.

Or do we call it massive cos of the extent of damage done?

Often when Nigerians get hold of a word they hardly let go...for some time we were stuck with clueless, recently: blast, and now everything is massive in our eyes. e.g, worst as the dead of three people may be, we cannot say "massive deaths recorded before elections" or "massive turn out" in an election where we have a not more than 55% voter turn - out.

Please I'm just thinking if 90 people burn down balogun market, I'll rather call it violent or deadly than massive.
Even when they in the hundreds, one hears foreign media use statement like "hundreds of protesters were seen/march thro/camped/chants/barricaded/etc

Just thinking aloud
