No effects on me but I'm pissed all the same. Why would you postpone elections in a few hours to kick-off? Some people travelled because of this election, some people passed the night at the polling units. It's pure wickedness on the part of INEC to do this at this crucial time

INEC had no option than to postpone the elections: Read why here:

INEC'S INTENDED OSUN TEMPLATE BUSTED BY THE UNITED STATES

Nigerians should be grateful to the United States for saving our democracy today. This is why the party in power got frustrated about the international communities interference at one point and threatened “body bags” because they know, “Americans would know”.

We are a sovereign state, agreed, but there was nothing Nigerians would have done tonight to prevent Mohammadu Buhari from rigging this election, if not for the intervention of the USA.

The Buhari government in collaboration with INEC had an agenda on how to rig the election in favor of Buhari. This was what they were planning to execute tonight with the postponement drama when the United States government got a wind of it and called the INEC Chairman not to dare.

THEIR PLAN:

The strategy was to allow elections hold in 26 states and postpone it in 10 states. For the ten states, they had two plans: late arrival of election materials and security crisis.

The idea was to deliberately allow materials arrive late as we are already witnessing in some states, and INEC would have no option but to postpone elections in those states.

For instance, the aircraft that was supposed to deliver materials to Enugu was told it can't land because of bad weather conditions and it had to land in Port Harcourt. Right before us, elections in Enugu would have been postponed.

The crisis template was executed in Kaduna today. The news of Kaduna State killings of 66 people today was part of the plan to create an atmosphere of catastrophic so that INEC would postpone the election in Kaduna State citing security challenges. The news of the killings was fabricated and sponsored by the 3 inches 'body bag' Governor of that state.

For the 26 states that election would have held, the plan was to watch out for the outcome. If it favours Atiku, whatever the margin is, they would deploy heavy security agents to ensure they get enough votes to cover up the margin in the 10 states that elections were to be postponed as they did in Osun state.

With this plan, Buhari would be elected back as president, but the US said, NO!

Elections across the 36 states must hold simultaneously, they insist.

Here in Umuahia the atmosphere is dull and many are angry. It feels as the soul of the city is in general mood of resentment.
We are counting our cost.

This doesn't have anything to do with God. It's the result of being born in a shithole country. undecided

it did not affect me a bit. I don't even care and I don't even see myself caring in the near future. Politicians are thieves, egocentrics and greedy.
I am myself.
But their actions/inactions affect you one way or the other no matter the society you find yourself.

"The APC is not blind. They know they don't have the numbers. This may be an attempt to thin out the margin so that rigging goes unnoticed since I suspect they don't really need votes. If Atiku still wins and the margin is small they can contest the results and that may go on another four years.

They are on seat
The game is not looking good at all for them
They must stall to get the opponents tired (the voters)
I reckon that if this first postponement doesn't still give them assurance that the margin is thin enough, they will postpone again ��


Whoever introduced the 'rule' of one not being able to vote from whatsoever part of the country and why? ��"

marvinsync:



yes , most travellers are Igbos and other ss indigenes who are most likely not to vote for Buhari and those traveling into the country are most likely not to vote for Buhari because they are of the online community and the online community hates Buhari

So what happens between now and the 23rd of February, the roads are going to be open for those that will only vote Buhari?

I guess you haven't met fanatics, even if the election is next year, they wouldn't mind crossing 7 seas just to cast their votes.

Just because there are a bunch of typist warriors, doesn't mean they go out to vote eventually, elections are normally decided by the silent majority won't don't travel at all
