you should be concerned about buhari in core north

I seriously doubt Atiku getting more than 700k marginal votes in Rivers.

4 + 4 my people. You can begin celebration now.

Buhari is also splitting PDP votes in Rivers their major stronghold in the SS. Thank God. We are getting there, PDP Erats over you!!

Like Kano, like Rivers. Low figures for both PDP & Apc compared to previous elections.

Hehe.. Just this votes even out Atiku gains in the SW

And this is the rivers that PDP clowns are relying on to finish APC. Can’t just stop laughing.

Wike WHHHYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY....

PVC makes those ridiculous numbers vanish.

Hahahahaha nice showing by APC, they are still on ground. Who was expecting APC to garner more than 20,000 vote in few areas? hahahaha! No more imaginary allocation of vote just the way wike and his boys did in 2015. It's unfortunate Tonye Cole isn't taking part if not I would take part personally and deliver my entire ward to him. Enough is enough of kinsman wike's highhandedness. Let him feel the heat of 2015 rigging machine.

To those kids who are coming for, just go and chill or Kuku locate Choba bridge and jump into the river for all I care. CRA is my leader

go check borno and yobe at least that's the only authentic one so far, PDP picking 3digits.

The numbers of voters in rivers is so low for a stronghold, if the one in akwa ibom is true APC made huge progress in the two most populated in ss

the only region buhari will perform poorly is the South East.

Very soon yeebos will start saying people from the south south are betrayers

Not even news. What I'm concerned about is the margin

Rivers right here should be your major concern.
