This is unacceptable.

The Nigeria Police should arrest this man and charge him.

This act is more than a threat to our democracy.

Well, you are part of the decays that should be arrested and charged for promoting falsehood and defending a deceptive party

Tomorrow now, Buhari will justify this by saying that he knows nothing about it undecided

Do we still have a president

Is he still functioning

So u expect Buhari to know abt those buying votes far away from where he is. Was Jonathan aware of all votes buying under him or u want to tell me there was no vote buying under him?

How is it that most of this politicians were from poverty homes but when they reach high political offices, they act like they were born in a royal home?

Some ppl will sit down in their room and start making conclusion.... This shit happens all the time. It's all the party, during Jonathan first election against buhari cpc, all electoral officers in the north were given 5k for feeding and 5k for transport per individual... Didn't inec pay the electoral officers, a ballot paper is bought for 1k cpc strong units and anywhere there main person like Chairman or the likes cast election the officers there are given tips as a well done cash just to show good face.... The pix might simple means the guy is just appreciating them as a welldone and not bribe as suppose...... If u think u have any problem with my comment locate the nearest river to ur location and jump inside.

Seun,

Though I don't know the party this moneybag politician belongs to, I must admit that this is wrong in all ways. The INEC ad-hoc staff will be paid after the elections and I am sure they have enough for refreshment.

Either APC or PDP, this is wrong, vote buying is a PDP thing and should not be encouraged under this administration. The man does not need to call it a bribe before we know this is an outright inducement.

God bless Nigeria and PMB.

How I wish you will add your real name to this comment so that we can show it to your children and parents for them to see how you've been disgracing your family name online.

Vote buying is a PDP thing? were you in a coma when APC was buying votes in Ekiti State on election day?

But when we bribe NEPA not to cut our light, we don't see that as threat to Nigeria democracy.

I'm not the type to want to sound politically correct even when there's no need to be. The poster infused comments into the picture just to sway public opinion in favour of PDP when there is no evidence whatsoever the act was done by an APC member.

What exactly does he mean by Buhari wants to destroy democracy? Where were these senior advocates of democracy when PDP and Jonathan dolarised 2015 elections? Oh, I forgot, these people were born yesterday.

It is premature to quickly conclude that the man who clearly displayed his ID card is bribing the INEC adhoc staff. It could be a gift for refreshment. No political party can be so foolish as to be bribing INEC staff publicly in this manner. If it was a bribe, agents of other parties would have protested publicly.

I am not an advocate of vote buying but the pictures above are not strong enough to indict any party for bribery. The man may even be a senior INEC official for all we know.
Where is the evidence he's a member of APC to start with?

See them. What fucking gift for refreshment worth over thousands of Naira per persons. You won't condemn it since it is APC.

Pls point at something from that picture that shows that the person giving money is doing it for APC...

Na today!!! Hypocrites here will be shouting vote buying as if it's a new thing. What do you call this:if I have decided from home to vote for party A, and I got to the polling booth to vote for A, but somebody beckoned to me to come and collect money to vote for party A [the one I have decided to vote for from onset]. And I collect the money vote my conscience, is that still vote-buying?

There is not a shred of evidence the man is an APC member, he could be anybody.

PDP is just desperate as usual to spoil the victors' celebrations. grin

They are sore losers.

Oshiomole and APC will do everything to force Buhari to contest even on his death bed cause they know the largely illiterate northerners fanatically and blindly support him. APC would not risk presenting any body else. This why Tambuwal defected.

True. Was offered same without objection from party agents (both parties) when I was a PO in 2015. I rejected but instead called the food seller, bought food and asked that they paid

It has nothing to do with inec but the police and the politicians.....inec has implemented the part of the law within their powers....That buhari had to encourage people with money in his immediate constituency says much about his small god stature in the north

Re: Photos Of Money Exchanging Hands At Polling Unit Go Viral On Twitter by toyecoach(m): 1:08pm On Aug 12, 2018
In as much it is uncalled for, INEC ought to have cautioned their staff against collecting such money
My personal opinion :the money being given is for all the staff for entertainment /refreshments as it is normal here in Nigeria, especially at times like this but it behoves on the staff to reject it even though it was given openly!

There is nothing wrong to give them money for drinks or food. The workers are out there from early morning till late evening. Even after voting closed and voters have left they did not leave, their work continued.


And who made the man their principal? They get paid for special assignment as this which covers lunchanged do other logistics.
