Direct primaries that you don't know number of people that will be voting. Direct primaries that if rigged can't be rejected by Inec. Direct primaries that can not hold in many parts of the country cos of insecurity. Direct primaries that someone will write results from one corner and announce results, if you doubt ask people who participated in APC guber primaries in imo,osun and Lagos 17 Likes 2 Shares |

Good step Direct primary is #bae. Whoever that is against direct primary have ulterior motive. Indirect primary Comes with high desperation among the contestants that makes them to bribe the delegates with huge amounts of money. Direct primary discourages desperation and encourages competence. In indirect primary, a single person offered a token bribe will compromise the will of his people for his personal gain. Note that Direct primary is conducted across the political wards, all the votes counted, recorded and duly signed by the INEC staff(s) on duty in the presence of the people. People are allowed to snap the result sheet in order to make sure the figures are not altered at the local government and state level collation. 4 Likes 1 Share |

Direct Primaries is the way to go. The President should please sign the bill. Don't mind the naysayers, Direct Primaries is actually cheaper but trust politicians, especially the state Governors, to have a sinister reason for attempting to confuse some people. Because most of them lack legitimacy, they pay so much in indirect primaries system to buy loyalty from ward level to the state assembly so they can fight their political opponents in federal executive council, national assembly and national executive council of their political parties. The prolonged and perennial fights the Edo State Governor, HE Godwin Obaseki, has with his political opponents is traced to the indirect primaries system that foisted him on PDP after allegedly parting with about 6 billion naira to buy the PDP structure in Edo State. No direct primaries to elect a gubernatorial candidate will cost N6 billion! In fact, if PDP had done direct primaries in Edo, hardly will it spend up to N100m for the organisation but the Governor allegedly paid N6 billion to buy the ticket. This is what is going on in most of the 36 states of the federation. The corruption case EFCC made against HE Fayose is traced to the problem associated with the bad indirect primaries system. No direct primaries will cost even half of the billions HE Obaseki allegedly paid Chief Dan Orbih and Co to buy Edo PDP. He is still spending to buy loyalty to chase out his percieved opponents from Edo State PDP. So who do they think they are fooling when they say Governors oppose direct primaries because of cost? They are spending far more to buy legitimacy after getting to power through undemocratic processes ! Indirect primaries is the joker some Governors used to cheat the democratic system and take the electorates as easily dispensable and it must be stopped. 6 Likes 1 Share |

nzeobi: Don’t mind them. I’ve reiterated it consistently that Direct Primaries is not feasible and hence the new electoral bill shouldn’t be assented to by the president. Only myopic elements can’t see these issues you have raised. Meanwhile, House of Representatives is just being a typical Nigerian institution. This invitation they are extending to INEC now is what they should have done before passing the law. Very stupid people. 2 Likes |

With direct primary election, the issue of buying delegates who mostly sell their conscience will not arose. The influence of money politics will die because not politician will have the money to buy thousands or millions of people at a time. It will make the "actual" people (electorates) to be interested in the processes of electing their leaders but sentiments instead of competence may likely play out because the minority group(mostly tribes/religion) may likely not have any influence in the processes,no matter how competent their candidates are. |

.. .. WHEN IT COMES TO THE ADEQUACY OF THE DIRECT PRIMARIES.. .. Even if the party has a functional register of ALL the Party-Members, they still cannot stop the menace of over-voting and the writing of results.. .. OK THEN.. ... BUT I HAVE A LITTLE IDEA THAT CAN BE OF GREAT HELP, AND A POSSIBLE SOLUTION TO THE MENACE.. .. YESS... THE PARTY CAN GENERATE INDIVIDUAL TEMPORARY “VOTING CODES” AND SEND THEM TO ALL THE REGISTERED MEMBERS OF THE PARTY (AS APPROPRIATE) AHEAD OF THE PRIMARIES FOR THEM TO BE USED ONLY FOR ACCREDITATION PURPOSES.. .. On the day of the Primaries, only the number of VOTING-CODES which the voting-system decrypted and accepted as authentic, would definitely become the actual number of people who participated in the primaries, since they were the only ones that were assumed to be accreditated. .. But then, there might be another problem to that.. If the “VOTING CODES” were generated by a Human-Being, then the process can be compromised.. A desperate person can still go and pay the persons who generated and sent-out the VOTING-CODES, so as to have possession of the codes and still use them to commit the crime of Multiple-Voting... .. Well, unless the VOTING CODES were automatically generated and sent anonymously to the registered members by a computer (and the messages encrypted by the same computer after being sent to the members), so that the codes cannot be physically retrieved by anybody, no matter what methods they tried to use.. .. This one however cannot prevent impersonation-voting, where someone gets the VOTING-CODES of other members from them and then go ahead to vote on their behalf, but it would definitely stop Multiple-Voting and Result-Writing. .. It will also prevent imported voters, since the Machine-Generated VOTING-CODES were only sent to the members within the appropriate politcal boundary, and thus, imported members are automatically disqualified and disenfranchised. |

dalongjnr:With Direct Primaries,, three things can easily be done by the desperate politicians.. 1). Voters are imported from other places to come and stand in the line.. (that is, where open ballot is used) 2). Multiple Voting In places where secret ballot were used.. 3). Writing of The Results By the Organisers of the Primaries, and paying the INEC Staff Present to endorse and Stamp their fraudulent Results as the Authentic Results. .. .. So,, are there ways you can avoid these three scenarios?? |
