AdaojoTheUrchin:
Americans know the truth, that's why they are watching keenly.

Jashub:
Point of correction: Americans will only recognize the truth once it goes against their interest

jchioma:
The whole country is like in mourning. Is that what one can call victory? Even known urchins are in doubt. What do you call this sham? From Lagos to Rivers, Abuja to Kaduna, the people are not happy. Even the gods are angry.

Pityoobi:
You need time to grief… you shouldn’t be on Nairaland right now. All this can destroy your mental health. You will never laugh on this matter, your false hope will vanish like smoke.

OdogwuOga:


How could you type this shit? She wants to be popular? Popular with Nigeria or with what or who please, if I may ask? Please, for point of order, this woman is correctly one of the 10 most popular persons in the world with African descent. Please eschew your jealousy and think rightly.

jchioma:


Hello, Timi, I'm completely in tune with what she said. In fact, she's one voice that's needed now as we chart the course for the way forward. The whole country is like in mourning, nothing seems true.

useni1:
ogun kee you. I am already a dead man. Shango strike all your family lineage with cancer

0monnak0da:

So because southerners were wary of Buhari cheating him I justified?
That is very bizarre logic

Creamypie:
In as much as i voted obi and l.p, this one na Over sabi wanna be woman. Very froward. Na you know pass. She's wants to be more popular. Na her pattern right from her undergraduate days for those of us who know her from early to mid 2000s.Always choosing from a host of situations, the ones that will give her more attention and popularity. I knew she would write, as if u.s/u.k no dey aware say elections aren't transparent in Nigeria. We no see am for the herdsmen killings, boko killings, eastern killings, kidnappings and beheadings, naira crisis and scarcity, igboho house siege and the killings, cos those ones can't bring popularity like this

OdogwuOga:
Moderator, please could you kindly and urgently push this to front page. It's very relevant in this our fragile time.

YorubaSamurai:
That is why she will never get Nobel nomination till she will kick the bucket

SugarGirl44:


As in. She’s trying too hard to get recognized.
As if America is our creator.
Stupid ipob girl with her long mouth.
Mtcheew.

0monnak0da:
In 2007
INEC declared Yar'adua elected with over 24 million votes
There was no declaration of a breakdown by states or even the FCT
It was just YarAdua has won and he got 24 million votes
Buhari went to court

The EU declared
The elections were THE WORST WE HAVE EVER SEEN
Many Nigerians looked away because Buhari was victim

ceejayluv:

I meant that was why people turned a blind eye on the matter. Isn't it whomever supports you that would clamour to contest for your mandate? The electoral act as at then wasn't evolved enough to prevent such rigging.

benjaminlawson:


Please let us always been sincere in our comment, how would you expect that they will announce the result of 24 million without break down, haba, let us write with some common sense.

0monnak0da:




If you think I am wrong the easiest thing would be to disprove my claim with evidence
This is an IT era so that should not be so hard
PRODUCE BREAKDOWN FOR 2007 ELECTION IN NIGERIA
That you are anonymous online is no licence to talk like an idiot
I think you should tell your father to get some common sense
Till tomorrow breakdown has. Not been seen
Buhari deserves utmost respect for his maturity in handling that injustice
The same Obasanjo who did that now wants to preach about democracy

ShadowCracker:

Apc Dem say Rhodes-Vivour no be lagosian say nah Ipob.

superCleanworks:


Yes she is an 'over sabi'
Yes you have known her since 2000.

she is an international figure and her name rings a bell in every library of the world.

what is your name? I tripple dare you to say your full name with the same energy you used in typing this vomit, let us google it.

JoeEeL:


Or MNK's kidnap. She kept pim.

These are hypocrites.

Creamypie:

Pityoobi:
This is a new low from you guys… from OBI will win to we will laugh last. It will always end in tears.
