We know how Yoruba votes helped Jonathan when he won.

We know the population of Hausa, Igbo and Yoruba.

We know if you win in Lagos, Ibadan, Kano, Kaduna,PH...you are ahead.

Those are the election deciders.

Tell us Ibadan and Lagos are in the north.

And last election Lagos couldn't give buhari a million vote unlike other states

Ibadan?? Lol that rustic village, who lives there if not student of UI hahaha

Even if you didn't vote, he will still win, that's the point here

Sorry your point is meaningless, Did you know how PMB show respect to Tinubu politically after the election? Mind you if the yoruba din't support him he won't win nada.. Remember GEJ win all the whole South West states in 2011 except Osun state but reverse is the case in 2015 where PMB will all the states except Ekiti. He even won in Ondo state where Mimiko boast much about hahha..

A legal luminary, Femi Falana (SAN) has called for the immediate release of Brig. Gen. Enitan Ransome-Kuti, from prison custody having completed the six months sentence imposed on him by a Special Court Martial set up to try him by the Nigerian Army on October 15, 2015.

Falana, who made the call in a statement he issued in Lagos yesterday and addressed to the Chief of Army Staff (COAS), Gen Tukur Buratai, said that if his request is not acceded to by the army authority he would approach the court to enforce his client’s right to liberty.

According to Falana, by virtue of Regulations 54 and 55 of the Prisons Regulations made pursuant to the Prisons Act (CAP. P29) Laws of the Federation of Nigeria, 2004 which provides that every convict is entitled to a remission of one third of the sentence imposed by a court, Ransome-Kuti ought to have been released on February 15, 2016.

He said, “It would be recalled that our client was unjustly convicted and sentenced to dismissal from the Nigerian Army and 6-month imprisonment by a Special Court Martial on October 15, 2015.

“As the findings of the Special Court Martial are subject to the confirmation of the appropriate authority we made a strong representation to the Army Council on behalf of our client.

“By letter dated October 19 2015 we also requested the Authorities of the Nigerian Army to release our our client from military custody pending the determination of the appeal.

which he intended to file against the unjust findings of the Special Court Martial which convicted him of war related crimes and sentenced him to 6-month imprisonment and dismissal from the Nigerian Army.

“For reasons best known to you the request for our client’s release pending appeal was turned down by your good self in flagrant violation of section 160 of the Armed Forces Act (Cap A20) Laws of the Federation of Nigeria, 2004.

“Thus, you caused our client to serve the 6-month prison term without the confirmation of the findings of the Special Court Martial by the Army Council.

As if that was not enough, you have ignored our demand for the release of our client since he completed the 6-month prison term on February 15, 2016. In our letter dated February 12, 2016 on the subject matter, we had pointed out that our client ought to have spent 4 calendar months in custody by virtue of Regulations 54 and 55 of the Prisons Regulations made pursuant to the Prisons Act (CAP. P29) Laws of the Federation of Nigeria, 2004 which provides that every convict is entitled to a remission of one third of the sentence imposed by a court.

“In view of the foregoing, you will agree with us that the continued detention of our client cannot be justified under the Armed Forces Act and the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, 1999 as amended. We are therefore compelled to request you to use your good offices to ensure that our client is released from unjust and illegal incarceration forthwith.

“Take Notice that if you fail or refuse to accede to our request by ensuring the immediate release our client we shall not hesitate to seek redress in the Federal High Court with a view to securing the enforcement of his fundamental right to person liberty guaranteed by section 35 of the Constitution and article 6 of the African Charter on Human and Peoples’ Rights (Ratification and Enforcement) Act (Cap A9) Laws of the Federation of Nigeria, 2004,” Falana stated.

We didn't support OBJ in 1999 but we did in 2003, Mind you Norther's and South Western have been working together since 1960 using the South Easterner as a bait. Northerners and South Western understand and trust themselves and we work together, But the tribe we cannot trust are the igbos... Mind you can you remind me how many votes Oju Iku got in his states/village in 2003 or have you forgotten he also contested?

GMB didn't even get up to 10% while others that' didn't vote at all because of some reasons got the other remaining percent. Check the statistics is there

YourMrBoo:


Yoruba's stood which ground??
Meanwhile without the whole Southwest votes buhari will still win by just a few margins...
Your votes are inconsequential because it was highly splitted between PDP and APC.
So what the fuss about Yoruba kicking a sitting president? while is the north that should be credited.

Even the election was a political tussle between the north and the south but out of greeed, power thirst and a mere commissioner they decided to betray the south.

When Buhari fielded okadigbo way back. Igbos as always expected didn't sell out. One tends to wonder why betrayal without any benefit is always associated by a particular tribe.

During OBJs tenure, the Yorubas even betrayed him yet in OBJs amazement and bewilderment, the SS and SE stood by him and returned him back to seat, they didn't sell out



Excerpt from the story...


I think he has completed his jail term, lol but I am not surprised as the cowards will find a way to give reasons abandoning their own.
More watery beans for him....

Now take those votes you remove from Buhari and add them to Jonathan's, who do you think would have won?

First of all the 2006 population isn't the real representation of the population on ground, because of the corruption in the system when it was conducted and for the fact is an old records.

But judging by the said population
I can't see where Ibadan or lagos population is bigger than the who SE what a dilemma.

Nevertheless I am not talking about census/population statistics but electoral statistics of the last election.

And who care about the 10%? you region did not support him and he won with the support of South West and North.. and mind you did PMB got up to 60% from south west? if eceryone should come out and vote una go see margin now.. Don't worry 2019 is around the corner.

That without the 60% from the whole people that voted him from the south west, buhari will still win with a small margin....

Will I need a microphone to sing that into your brain?

2019 is around the corner and I fear the amount of political awareness the SS and the SE has gotten expectially the later that haven't been taking general elections serious. Seriously I can't wait.

Thank God for 2015 for exposing how voting is important in this country...
