What a show of strength just to clinch power. Meanwhile States like Benue, Borno and Taraba are experiencing a holocaust feast of death yet, the government caresless for the security of the people, they will rather secure the power for themselves at all cost. Where is that lady that said we should stop traveling out of the country??

God bless Nigeria for this move, only those who don’t want peace and have an ulterior motive won’t like this move.

The only hope and plans fayose has is to use thugs hence won’t be happy with this move.

If fayose and other pdp members are not happy with, they can chicken out of the contest.

Nigerian political leaders are more interested in power than the people they serve wherever power goes ,that is where they direct all their might.Over 200 lives were lost in Plateau State we didn't see 30,000 policemen and 75 lives were lost in Benue we didn't see them either. 30,000 policemen because of just one gubernatorial seat!

They just want to scare away citizens from voting.

At the sight of a uniform man, a policeman to be precise, what comes to mind is ACCIDENTAL DISCHARGE LOOMING

And then you expect people to turn up. taa
Only a hopeless coward runs from a uniformed man with a gun. How many of us can they kill for exercising our rights? How many really? How many?
