Op, thanks for digging out this to support the earlier decisions of the returning officer on Osun election. This has exonerate the INEC for it's decision to conduct a rerun.


Well, the question is why the selective judgment? And if APC was leading, would INEC have make such declaration?

The inec act said May be declared inconclusive.. That means Inec may or may not.

That means something is wrong with the inec act. The word may is terrible for such a sensitive issue..

Apc was leading in Kogi and Inec made the decision. Why should this be different?

Read and understand, don't just write rubbish.


Polling booths where elections were not held because of INEC limitations is a different ball game to what happened in Osun State. Elections were held, voters were accredited and the results were voided not necessarily cancelled just like what we have with irregular thumbprints on ballots being discarded.

Those booths were supposed to be discarded and not be repeated.

I don't understand why people like you keep deceiving yourself. Cancelled votes are cancelled votes once INEC decides so. It is not for you or PDP to start defining what constitutes cancelled votes. Let me also correct your ignorant position on the kogi case, it wasn't a blanket case of election not holding due to INEC limitations. There were cases of violence, ballot box snatching, over voting and others. In Osun, it wasn't a blanket case as well. There was over voting in a unit, ballot box was snatched in another, an INEC official disappeared with collated result in another and violence also rocked another. So you see, they all qualified to be cancelled. If you have nothing intelligent to contribute other than troll my post, please desist from quoting my handle. I really do not fancy people who lack manners.

I encourage everyone to read the submission from the OP. It would help you in life. If not now, it would do so later.

The law is clear and the supreme court has already taken a stand on this issue of inec and powers given to her. PDP just wish to whip up sentiments in the face of the truth.

I remember when PMB said the Nations security comes first above rule of law many wanted to hang him for that truthful statement but today the same people who cried foul are the ones saying we should discard the rule of law because PDP was leading in the final results when there was no legal reason to declare Adeleke the winner in the face of the realities on ground.

PDP are serious hypocrites.

PDP knows they cannot win Osun and that's fact

The problem with INEC is INCONSISTENCY! The bayelsa election between Timipre Silva and Governor Dickson was Never declared inconclusive, despite the fact that the margin of win was less than the total number of cancelled votes.Instead Governor Dickson was declared winner..Same scenario happened during the senatorial election of David mark and his major opponent..David mark was also declared winner with a total number of votes which was less than the total number of cancelled votes!...INCONSISTENCY is the watch word..... So in such situations whereby a certain law is not on same page with the Nigeria constitution, then the Nigeria constitution has the final say....

APC was leading here with a very wide margin & not just 300 votes, yet it was inconclusive!

The lawyer that advised PDP to head to court is only trying to make money from PDP. There's no case there. it's only INEC that can decide when election is concluded or not. if INEC tell you they have not concluded, going to court is only a waste of time and money as the court has no power to conclude an election for inec. When inec has concluded, they you can go to court to redress anomalies in the process of the said election.
The guyman lawyer just want to make some free money out of the poor desperate party. it's their way. in fact it's the way the world works. Con whoever you can and collect his money and look for the next person.

Its actually you that is being misled.inec inec is telling you that elections were cancelled there,what is your problem? Do you know more than inec? Or are you an excellency for nothing

Please define cancellation and tell us where it's applicable in these circumstances.

Void ballot
Over voting
No election
Ballot box snatching
Result alterations

Again, what does circumstantial compliance means to you. What percentage of perfection?
