Your Choice Of Punishment For Ballot Box Snatchers Will Not Stand, INEC Tells PM by Limitednow: 6:11pm On Feb 19, 2019
The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has kicked against President Muhammadu Buhari’s Choice of punishment for ballot box snatchers.

Mr Buhari at the All Progressive Congress (APC) National Caucus meeting on Monday preferred to punish ballot box snatchers by taking away the life of anyone who is caught.

The president vowed that during this year’s rescheduled general election, security agencies will gun down those whose intentions are to thwart the electoral will of the people through snatching of ballot box.

But disagreeing with the president’s choice of punishment, INEC on Tuesday said those caught in the act will face the wrath of the law which stipulates at most, a three year jail term for those found culpable.

The electoral body says those caught will be dealt with according to its act contained in the constitution.

Immediate Infighting within the Presidents party :
Buhari has always been known to be a very cunning and divisive man who is very fond of speaking from both side of his mouth all just to protect his secret interest and he will immediately use this character to bring division into his ruling party where once again his inability to firmly set a direction would open the doors for chaos and spoils grabbing as no one knew how Buhari wanted the structure of party leadership to be , this lapse immediately brought about many camps within the party all infighting for the spoils of their latest conquest while the economy was left unattended.
The Outcome No unity between the party leadership, the executive and legislative right from the onset a problem that will further sacrifice the health of our already struggling economy further.

True

A president that knows that international observers are flying in to monitor the elections is giving the green light to the security forces to use maximum force? For a crime that is not more than 3 years in jail. How terrible.

INEC is working with PDP this is not robot science, how come PDP top officials were aware of the election postponement before it was officially announced.

Anyway, PMB is the commander in chief, Atiku slaves pls go and snatch ballot, but pls pre-informed ur parents and write ur will before doing so, the Army will gladly end that ur miserable life.

You are the fool who never engages his brain and just talks like an im.becile always out of bigoted hatred of PMB. The thugs who snatch ballot boxes go to polling centres in numbers and are heavily armed to intimidate everyone. The naive INEC talking think these guys are joking or not cold-blooded killers?
Everyone is talking of provisions for prosecuting ballot box snatchers and such rubbish. Can you capture someone who will stab or shoot you if you attempt stopping him and his gang from completing their mission? Is it not only our armed forces that can deal with them so the mandate of Nigerians are not stolen as PDP did with ease in the past? Rubbish !!!!

Go and sit down and stop disgracing your lineage by talking ignorantly of the reality of Nigeria with some International observer bullshite !!! Buhari knows and is ready to deal with the reality of his Country even if dishonest 'Ostriches' like you want to bury your head in the ground to score cheap political point like your lord and spin master Reno Omokri.

Me, you and every Nigerian know you dare not get in the way of these heavily armed thugs let alone try to capture them for 'prosecution' when they snatch ballot boxes in the past under PDP. When thugs are fighting in public what do Nigerians do if not run to hide? The same Nigerians will then tackle and capture ballot snatching thugs for 'prosecution' ba?

Buhari does not kid himself and is not a two-faced liar like leaders of the PDP and their dishonest followers like you. It is only our armed forces that can stand up to these killers and you know it !!! PMB has already said the protection of Nigerians, so they can vote peacefully for whoever they want, is his priority. You people should be praising him for this brave and unprecedented attempt to make the vote of Nigerians count. Instead you are here playing politics . Useless people !!! Follow the 'legal provisions' na and try to capture a ballot snatcher and see a dagger will not slice open your stomach. Nonsense. As if international observer know the cold and murderous savagery of Nigerian thugs only our trained army boys can match. If you don't like Buhari's method abeg go and die !!! *in Oshiomhole voice*.

BUHARI SAID HE WILL DEAL WITH THE INFIDELS IF HE WINS.
According to my source, Buhari also revealed to Usman Dankwambo one of his close friend that if he is reelected, he won't spare even the lives of the Yorubas this time. that within the 4 years of his rule, the Fulani will kill and encroach more Yoruba lands especially Ekiti and Ogun. He also planned to encroach more of the Kaduna Christian parts and some parts of Niger state. According to my source, He said Buhari wants the Fulani to take more lands this time within this 4 years cos that's their last chance. Even Lagos is said to be touched too.It's a known fact that the man buhari loves and condone corruption, if not some of the things happening now in Nigeria will not happen.
Here is a list of how Mr buhari phites coruption
* under his watch efcc gave ex governor timipre sylva back his seized houses(48 houses that wer taken and seized from him) and his case with efcc was struck out because he is an apc member
* under his watch efcc caught the thief obanikoro who allegedly stole millions, and even had some returned to the federal coffers. But the man is now in apc. Mr buhari waves his broom and sing kumbaya. Telling him to go, steal but try not to get caught.
*under the watch of the anti corruption czar a known fugitive running from justice by name Mr maina was reinstated into the civil service given promotion and paid all his arrears
And Mr maina have come out to tell the world also that buhari authored his reinstatement
* under the watch of the anti coruption czar $26billion was said to have been looted via giving contracts to government cronies i.e Mr kyari. In his letter leaked to the media by Dr ibe kachikwu. It was apparent the contracts did not go through the board, whose primary function was to detect corrupt acts. But buhari will hear non of it because he gave his tacit support
Re: Your Choice Of Punishment For Ballot Box Snatchers Will Not Stand, INEC Tells PM by Atiku4betaNaija: 7:38pm On Feb 19, 2019
We may not support same candidate but this FOOLhari shouldn't be an option for any sane Nigerian to vote.....
Another four long years of lies, of hunger, of bokoharam killings, of Fulani herdsmen killings, of a presidents lawlessness, of neotism and all manner of injustices by a sitting president is a no NO.......
Think about our future.
Nigerians vote wisely

See them. Hateful creatures and shameless IPOBians, with not a single bone of honesty in the body, doing what they do best. Propaganda, to tarnish those they hate, is the main export out of the SE today. Islamization you promised in 2015, after PMB won, has not come almost four years later. Now you move the goal post to after he wins in 2019. I don't know how you think these childish scaremongering will work on adults who are balanced and not lunatics like you lot.

Since you trust buhari enough to sacrifice your freedoms to him, what about the section of the country that don't trust him?

We should just surrender our freedoms to someone that does not like us?
