INEC will not deal with offenders that is why we have security.
Nigeria is too big for a few low life, no ambition thug to mess with it, its a whole country for goodness sake.
Have you seen where ballot boxes are snatched? these thugs come with guns, injure people, just to mess with election. After they mess with the box, Nigerians will still come back and blame Buhari for something thugs did. If you have no interest stealing the box then you won't have anything to worry. whether buhari deal with thugs or not, he will be blamed so let him do it the way he likes since he will still be insulted at the end
Buhari is a participant in the election. It's not his job to deal with electoral offenders. I don't by anyway support ballot snatching. If the statement was coming from INEC i wouldnt have an issue with it. It's their duty through the security agencies and judiciary to punish electoral offenders.

Talk is cheap.

Ballot boxes will still be snatched under the watchful eyes of APC sponsored security
and there's nothing anybody can do about it.

APC's desperation and hypocrisy is clear like daylight to discerning Nigerians.

lol, seems you forgot Buhari is the commander in chief of armed forces of the federal republic of Nigeria, not Inec.
When card readers were burnt, we blamed Buhari cos he is the GCFR, they didn't blame inec. If ballot is snatch, we will blame him, just let him do what is right, the message is meant for those who think they can mess with Nigeria that their father probably had no idea how she got independence.
You said you don't like the ballot snatching, everyone is not like you, during the ballot snatching, some innocent people will still loose their lives, threatening those that will involve in the act is not a bad idea. I stand with Buhari on this. If they want to snatch, let them snatch their mother's pot of soup, Nigeria is too big for an 18, 19, 20yrs old urchins messing with it, putting her citizens at risk.

Re: Snatch Ballot Box, Pay With Your Life, Buhari Declares ON February 18 by orebetitus(m): 3:12pm On Feb 18, 2019
Atiku is a looter, Atiku is a thief, which has virtually became all APC achieved in 4years,
Things to note about Alhaji Atiku Abubakar,

1. Atiku has been out of public office for almost 12 years now, since 2007.

2. Alhaji Atiku Abubakar became a billionaire in Nigeria before 1999.

3. Alhaji Atiku Abubakar contested for SDP presidential primaries alongside MKO Abiola in 1992 and willingly dropped his ambition for Abiola in a gentle man's manner , just as he didn't scatter APC when President Mohammad Buhari was chosen instead he worked closely with all forms of support to prove that he has never been desperate for power.

4. Alhaji Atiku Abubakar won Adamawa state gubernatorial democratically in 1999 before his 1992 political sportsmanship was remembered and he was appointed Vice to President Olusegun Obasanjo.

5. Alhaji Atiku Abubakar resigned from Nigerian custom service in 1989 that was 10 straight years before he became Nigerian Vice President but all that while he was still a multibillionaire,

6. APC Leader Bola Ahmed Tinubu narrated that immediately after Now President Mohammadu Buhari was elected APC flagbearer for 2015 polls that the party was out of fund and Alhaji Atiku Abubakar donated 2billion naira and a pretty IJ bate jet for logistics and left to rest in the UK, that after two weeks the needed money again ,he (Bola Ahmed Tinubu) in company of other APC leaders went to UK to plead with him for more fund which he gave them more 5billion naira according to their report, now my question is, ALL THIS WHILE ATIKU WAS SPONSORING THE AMBITION OF SAINT BUHARI "MR INTEGRITY", WASN'T HE CORRUPT THEN, WASN'T HE A THIEF? WASN'T A LOOTER?
Does that mean that APC was brought to power with looted fund? , so saint Mohammadu Buhari was sponsored by a thief?? This questions remain unansweredand a judgement unto all those that benefitted from him 2015 and suddenly discovers that he is a thief,

7. Can any Nigerian sincerely point at any political leader from the post of a state governor upwards since 1999 that all he had was only his constitutionally provided salary and allowance, just one person so we can use him as a yardstick or perimeter of judgement against Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, I will still wait until I see one but before then.

8. Alhaji Atiku Abubakar as he keeps saying has never been convicted by any court not even EFCC, he has been and always available all this while,

9. Let's assume Alhaji Atiku Abubakar is a looter, greedy and a thief, corrupt by implication, what is Bola Ahmed Tinubu? The leader of Nigeria ruling party, A Saint? What is Chibuike Rotimi Amaechi, an imam? What is Godswill Apkabio, a monk? Raji Fashola, Orji Uzor Kalu etc.

10. The sin Alhaji Atiku Abubakar committed is that he decided to invest in Nigeria instead of keeping his money in foreign banks waiting till he dies then the nation will loose it.
Conclusively as a nation today we have more challenges than we had in 2015, worst among them is
Poverty and no more respect to the sanctity of human, now human life can just be wasted at any slightest provocation and nothing will happen that is the worst thing that can happen to any society, besides Tribalism as never seen before, insensitivity and outright disregard for the feelings of Nigerian people, Lies especially in manner that insult average human intelligence, gross incompetence, brazen intolerance and abuse of power of power especially by security officials, all this has beset our democracy for this reason I will vote for my conscience you too vote your conscience and God will judge us all by our conscience thanks.

A concerned Nigerian.

He invest his resource in this nation that is a leader that is interested in his people

ABUJA- [b]PRESIDENT Muhammadu Buhari has warned those planning to snatch ballot boxes during the elections as he said that those caught doing that will pay with his or her live.President Buhari who stated this at the opening session of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Caucus meeting in Abuja, on Monday, said that such act would be the last unlawful act the person will engage in.
[/b]But the governors of Imo, Rochas Okorocha and Ogun, Ibikunle Amosun were conspicuously absent at the meeting.
President Buhari disclosed that he has ordered security agents to deal ruthlessly with party thugs that try to snatched ballot boxesBuhari who said he is confident that he has garnered enough supporters having gone round the country to campaign, urged party members to reassure their constituents to come out and vote on the rescheduled dates.
The President urged party agents to watch out for the party interests at the polling units.
He said that he has directed security agencies to identify hot spots and be ready to move should they suspect any attempts to cause problems by thugs across the country irrespective of party affiliations.
He said that he was told about the decision of the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC to postpone the last Saturday election at quarter to 5 in the morning of the elections.
He said that INEC had all the time and resources, didn’t have to wait six hours to the elections to announced postponement.
“Definitely, INEC must explain to Nigerians what happened, the constitution and the law protects INEC but they must not take us for granted.
“If we had failed to provide all what INEC wanted, then we would have been held responsible
“So at least after the elections we will have to go into details to find out what happened,” he said.

Are you pretending not to know that snatching of ballot boxes can lead to fight or war that may cost people their blood or lives?
Your bitterness and hatred for Buhari always make people like you senselessly criticize anything he does.

Is it that people who support APC do no longer know the right from wrong? In these jet era is a democratically elected president is giving order to shoot and kill ballot box snatchers? So why do we have the Police, Justice system and prisons? You should be ashamed of yourself for supporting this kind of statement.

Do u think God is senseless like u?
God is All-seeing & All-knowing. God knows those behind all the killings in Nigeria(i.e sponsors of Herdsmen, Bokoharam, thugs, Cultists, etc) and God will definitely punish them here and in hereafter. If they did not repent, Hell fire will be their final abode.
Finally, If you did not repent and seek for God's forgiveness all your above curse will fall on you and your entire family. Be warned!!!

People were shocked at a president’s disposition to violence and extra judicial killings. The problem with this kind of order is that if someone in one part of the country snatches the box, he’s arrested and released or nothing happens at all, but if someone in another part of the country does same, he’s murdered. Police can also use this order as excuse for intimidating people by accusing them as ballot box snatchers just to interfere with the election results. See a problem here? The president has just given the police armnesty to even harass and intimidate innocent people under this pretext.

Say NO to Violence and Military style rulership

USA is watching Nigeria in the election and any thing that goes out of place, they will be involved, now my question is, is Nigeria not independent? sometimes independent countries gather for a peace meeting even though they are independent and should not attend. Igbos was calling on US to aid them because they know we all are involved in peace keeping.
By ur logic, if anything happens in dis country, we should not blame Buhari because everything should be independent of the president. If economy is slow, we should not blame him cos d economy is independent, if security is bridge, we should not blame him cos security is independent.
I am tired, pls can someone come forward and make this man understand?
