Pain:

The Most Likely Winner Is Not Bringing To The Table Any Laudable Scorecard or Road Map. Same For All The Other Contenders.
It's Rather Unfortunate That We Are A Nation Whose Collective Decision Has Never Been Fact or Issue Based. We Are Merely Driven By Sentiments.

It Is Rather Unfortunate That The Likely Winner Will Be Voted Based On Mere Sentiments.I Groan For Nigeria. We Are Not Ready. We Have Never Been.
Sentiment Is A Lame Horse. It Will Never Take Us To The Promise Land. A Large Section of The Populace Have No Personal Ideology. The Problem is Not Just The Leaders. Nigerians Are Just Followers of Men Armed With The Road map to Hell. Evil leaders, Silly Followers.
It is sad; but with benefit of an hindsight, we are on the track that will lead us to the promised land. People learn best from experience, the way I see it people will vote along sentimental lines and at the end would suffer for it and regret it. That is how the change will come, people need to learn from real life experiences. It was from the 2007 sad election experience that people learnt and resolved not to allow this country go that way again. We are on the path.

Here is where my theory lies, while guys in lagos are pulling a total vote of just less than 200, here in the north polling booths are recording above 1000 voters, speaking from Kaduna experience.

sounds like "do or die" affair. Not sure I agree with you. What matters most is how we follow up whoever wins and make sure that appropriate legislations are passed as well as using the power of recall to threaten any legislator who tries to sell his/her mandate.

Your theory is not unusual, rules like 25% in 2/3 of states are made to prevent one man winning by virtue of votes from one region. Buhari MAY win the popular votes but will lose due to lack of spread. That has been his problem all the while. Al Gore had the same problem. He won the popular vote but didnt win enough states. I dont expect Buhari to complain if he loses on that basis, the rules are clear.

That makes sense , IMHO, PDP is the only platform which has been able to capture wider spread in Naija. They might have performed less than expected last week, but I'm sure now that the presidential front is a different ball game entirely, my prayer is, whoever wins; should have enough support to move the country forward.

Shebi it was on ths same NL earlier ths morning I said I got news that Tinubu as an unforgiving politician was out to humiliate Ribadu by voting GEJ and forcing his team to do so too.
Re: Presidential Election, 16th April, 2011 by sparkle10(m): 4:00pm On Apr 16, 2011
As for me and my house, we voted. I hope you did. 'Do or die' is dead forever. Today we did it with pride and that is why I, Goodluck Ebele Jonathan, am proud of you and Nigeria.

If you voted today place this on your profile to let the world know that we did it right and we did it together. GEJ

My point is which takes precedence over which, i.e more votes or winning 25% of 2/3 of the states. Will this lead to a run-off I don't think this should be an herculean task for Buhari, if we are saying he only needs to get 25% of the total votes counted in 24 states. Definitely the states that would form the 23 that would be counted for Buhari will include the states in which he has the highest votes, and with the voter apathy in the south, his northern votes may carry a big weight. But the thing is still confusing me, how will it be implemented. How will the states, that will make up the 23 be counted.

Really, I have been glued to AIT since morning, how come I missed the videoBut true talk sha underaged voters dey, I don't know how prevalent they are in other zones, but we have some underaged voters here in the north, but I don't think it issignificant enough to make any serious difference.Speaking from experience at my kaduna voting booth. However, it is difficult to determine people's age by appearance, this malnourished almajiris may not be as young as the appear because of stunted growth and at the same time poverty can also make someone look older than his real age.

I think GEJ would be worried about these figures, because when counting starts in the north you would be seeing figures like 1000 votes, should PDP fumble in the north they may be in some trouble.But funnily northern elites are not supporting Buhari although not openly. They are scared of losing their wealth, a lot of their wealthy men got their money through government patronage.

Dont worry. buhari will do a good job fighting corruption as head of the efcc. since his entire campaign bottomed on anti-corruption, he would be better situated if he heads the efcc; that way he can maximize his desire for ending corruption

If I were Goodluck, should I win, I will go to Buhari and talk to him to come and head EFCC, that way Goodluck Government's image will receive a major boost that He is confident in the face of opposition.But I know even if He has the guts, PDP members wouldn't let him
