APC don win am o

the

The election was peacefull without PDP. It means PDP is the cause of violence in most Nigerian elections.
We should all mobilise to stop PDP from participating in 2019 elections.

I am surprise where they manufactured those figures. Since I was born I have never seen election so boycotted like that of yesterday (EDO LG Election)

Only Oyegun voted in his polling unit of more than 4000 voters. I can show you prove where only him and few of his ads were voting. lol.

The second picture shows electoral staffs sleeping because nobody came to vote

The third picture shows three people (probably party agents) queuing to vote.

The fourth picture shows electoral officers gisting all day becos nobody came out.

The sit at home campaign of PDP was actually adhere to... Pictures don't lie.

More photo of different empty polling units across Edo yesterday...

Where did APC come out with those figures?

These were the main reason PDP boycotted the election because those electoral officers appointed were all APC card carrying members.

Lol...

Election which other political parties were part of (excluding PDP). Look at how APC agents where strolling with the ballot boxes.

Apart from that you will see those boxes are empty will not more than 10 papers inside. Was this how they got those figures they announced?

Where those 40k+ votes come out from. Election nor hold 4 my area, nobody come out oh. And nor be coz of PDP. Every body Don tire for both PDP and apc, na im make people nor come out to vote. But 40k+ na wah. I nor know for the other place, but I know say the people wen vote for the whole Edo South nor reach 1k
