Without minding that he hailed from the same region with the president-elect, Balarabe Musa, an elder statesman has said Buhari's victory in the March 28 presidential polls does not reflect the wish of the generality of Nigerians. He said an election won on a shortfall of 42 million registered voters isn't a reflection of the true will of the people. Only 28 million of the total 70 million registered voters took active participation in the election.

The national chairman of the de-registered Peoples Redemption Party (PRP), said, Buhari has a mandate but not popular, he therefore wants the president-elect to form a government which will comprise all political parties. The former governor of old Kaduna state said, the only fortunate thing about the just concluded polls is that Nigeria is not divided despite anxieties before the elections.

Cry cry baby

This man is an ode RATIO 2:4 regions is not popularity abi......that means the constitution stance is also not a popular one

This man is great. He always says the truth, no matter how unpopular it is.
In fact, he is the most honest northern politician in this country. Forget Buhari, Balarabe Musa is the deal.

is that not first governor to be impeached

Read his statement, search your conscience, and then tell me if he's wrong in what he said.

Finally, an abok.i, a nama rearer that some people consider great

Balarabe Musa is someone I respect very much but what he's saying holds no water...the June 12 elections had only 14million voters. 2011 elections won by Jonathan had 36million voters. If 2015 had 28million, it isn't buhari's fault. He's not the umpire and even the umpire will not point guns to people's head to force them to go vote. Nigerians generally are apathetic to elections.

A perfect example is the rerun elections in Imo state. Out of 144000 registered voters and 113000 PVC collected, less than 50000 came out to vote....

Now, whose fault is that?

Buhari's victory is not a popular mandate. He never secured massive votes from Nigerians. He failed woefully in the South East (couldn't even secure 25% votes there), failed woefully in the South South and won only marginally in the South West. He never got any massive votes from the South, infact he lost in the South.

When I consider the tears being shed by APGA today and the resounding victory of Okorocha, I am obligated to discountenance the results of march 28 in the SE and SS

Who said it's Buhari's fault? You guys are so brainwashed that you can't comprehend simple statements anymore. SMH.

Will you also discountenance that of Ondo, Gombe and Kogi? In those states, APC won in March 28 but PDP won in April 11. Shouldn't we discountenance the March 28 polls there too? Yimu

Keep shaking your head. You that thinks a man who graduated from Aldershoot and the US war college is an 'illiterate' is indeed a sorry case of a brainwashed individual.

Of course everybody knows how you and your ilk think

Its not the winning that poses a problem my friend.....its the brazenness of the rigging......allocating less than 5% of the votes in a whole state to GMB.

Anyway, thank God he didn't need them.....eventually

Don't you worry......INEC has given him a better one

I hope you know Buhari amassed over a hundred thousand votes (> 100,000) in Imo state? And I hope you know less than a million people casted their votes in the presidential election in Imo state? So I wonder where ur 5% emanated from.

The certificate of return will stand in for his WASC? Keep on deceiving yourself.

Thank God for IMO and Okorocha....though I wonder why you forgot this when you were harping on his 'dismal' performance in the SE and SS.

What about the other SE and SS States? At least we know how guns were used to chase away voters in Rivers and akwa ibom

He never needed his school cert for anything. Even section 318 of the Nigerian constitution explains and tells us the options that can stand for a school cert.

Its you and partners that wanted to use it to block his approach to the ultimate prize: INEC certificate of return and he crossed that hurdle to claim it.

Now deal with that

Buhari failed woefully in Imo state despite pulling over 100,000 votes. This is because he failed to secure 25%.

It's a known fact that Buhari failed in the South (SE, SS, SW). That's why his victory isn't a popular mandate. It's a regional mandate from the North . He needs to do sth about that when he assumes power.....a priceless advice.

Of course he never needed his WASC. Afterall, our previous leaders are hardly university graduates (with exception of Yar Adua and Jonathan) so it's not totally strange that we have a school drop out as a president. The world is aware.

The old man is going senile, he speaks lots of gibberish of recent.

Wow!...Look at these baby factory products from the SAD-EAST hailing a a so called cattle rearer now. Hateful and hypocritical lots!!..GMB won in 4 out of 6 regions.Lost narrowly in the south south and lost in the sad east due to their perpetual hate for good things coupled with their slavish loyalty to their Ijaw owners ....
Awon AGIP oshi !!!!

Even if an unknown political me contested against GEJ,I. Would win,because,everybody is tired of the present administration..

So either popular votes,or not,the people wanted a change.

Goodnight

Let him ressurect his dead party to prove how popular he is himself before judging how popular a man that contested for election four time to win at the last is.
