Are these Eight millions voters for PDP?... No

4 million may come out to vote ie ½.
2.5 millions for PDP
1.3 millions for APC
O.2 million for others

The vice-presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party, Mr Peter Obi, has accused the Independent National Electoral Commission of disenfranchising over eight million eligible voters in the South-East during the February 23 presidential election.

He said the election was deliberately programmed to ensure that the zone did not participate fully.

Obi made the allegation on Tuesday at a press conference held in Onitsha, Anambra State.

He said that out of the 10 million registered voters in the zone, only about 20 per cent were able to cast their votes.

He said, “You will recall that on election day, I said the process was clumsy and we also had a major problem with malfunctioning card readers. Most people couldn’t vote as a result.

“When over 4,000 card readers got burnt, it became clear that something was wrong somewhere and the Independent National Electoral Commission could neither save the situation nor allow people to vote manually.

“But in some other parts of the country, people were allowed to vote manually and it was accepted by the electoral body.

“How can you tell me that states like Yobe and Borno produced more voters than Anambra and Ebonyi states put together?

“The two states have been at war. I wonder how they got card readers that were working so well, despite the war situation in which they found themselves.”

Obi noted that Nigeria failed to build on the achievements of the 2015 general election.

If pdp had won- it would have been the will of the people bah? Where are the 8m voters going to come from? - because as much as we know - all the total registered voters added together in addition to the supposed 8m cannot be found in inec books/register - all this tribal ethnic politics should stop, the more they play it, the more they get detached from the Nigerian state - people of the east* this, east that- politicians stop it now! when they play it with them they shout- when they make utterances along those lines it's right*

So it was INEC that told them to remain indoors eating Isi Ewu and sipping palm wine while the Northerners were under the scorching sun to vote massively for their man... grin

Dave Umahi said and i quote

“Our people are good in social media but will never go to get their voter cards and will be announcing results,” he said. He enjoined journalists to vote in the elections to enshrine good governance despite their election monitoring schedules. “I expect 90 per cent success in the elections of March 9 and I want you to ask me question on this, that day. “All the prophecies made on this election failed and you (journalists) were the ones propagating these prophecies. “People will just wake up and declare: thus says the lord and this is unfortunate,” he said.

Atiku and Obi did not do Good campaign. Atiku was just talking about selling NNPC and making his friends Rich. what kinda Rubbish campaign was that?

And Obi was just campaigning for china. APC all the did was Repeat the same 2015 lines with flasing of 4 fingers.

Nigerians were very easy to convince, Both parties had no New plans to move the country forward. The whole campaign was Sloganised. No manifesto, No nothing! Just slogans and divide and Rule.

Nigerians are the problem not the politicians.

Peter Obi and well meaning Nigerians should not just bother themselves this is no election. This is the worst election in Nigeria history, in Africa history and in human hustory since creation.

Buhari is a bastard. I'm not here to talk party who win or not but for a bastard who claims integrity to be comfortable and be smiling enjoying this farce called election shows Buhari truly is a bastard.

I think he want to rule? Nice one let him go ahead. Someone very close to me got over N4million must to thumb print thousands of ballot paper for Buhari he even did the video recording showed it to me and he was dancing telling me *oh boy I don hammer* telling me now he realised election is another yahoo money making stunt. He has be throwing party in his house in Abuja here since Sunday.

Buhari go ahead and rule ok but one thing us sure your end will be miserable the Gadaffi and Saddam treatment will be like rehearsal to what will befall you and your gangs one good day.

Mind you all your apc a s s holes I'm not here to talk party things but the shame is too much how my friends around the world were mocking Nigeria sending all kind of videos of killings, beating, slapping, underage voters, money for vote, burning votes, cooking fake figures, forcing INEC to declared fake result, voting secretly in the bush etc its a big shame I almost hate being called a Nigerian.

Buhari it shall never be well with you and it shall never be well with anyone that joined hands to be disgracing Nigeria to these level. This morning I declare your entire generation will never see peace so it shall be. These embarrassment is too much . Now I finally accept it that Jonathan is the face of Nigeria democracy and the best democratic president in Nigeria.


Where are people like Falana, Wole Soyinka? It's a shame on these goats who were bought by apc since 2015 and remained deaf and dumb to today. We lost Fawehinmi and Beko who were true human called activist not that useless Falana with basket mouth. That useless Soyinka was busy talking obj as if the election is about obj but the bushy disgusting hair with the bloody loaf head could not see how Nigeria politicians messed up in this election, prof shame on you you have lost your respect sir.
Why are you calling Falana and Soyinka Lmao. Was the election not largely peaceful? What proof do you have that it was rigged? Northern votes? Well it’s the same amount of votes that have been coming out since PDP days. Are you saying PDP also rigged in the North in the past and showed others the way? So why are you now crying this much?

Total number of PVC collected in the south east is 6.6million.
These politicians should stop all these falsehood based on statistics from 1999-2015 the south east has not recorded more than 4 million voters turnout, so where is the 8 million coming from? combined with the fact that voter turnout has been dwindling over the electoral timelines.

Where was Obi when the supreme lord of biafla was telling Igbos and people of biafla not to come out to vote? The Igbos were busy eating ofe nsala and garri. Obi should just accept their defeat in good fate and move on.He should try again later. The agreement Nnamdi Kanu had with whoever had been fulfilled ����

This people think am a fool, a whole Professor is doing this. Sum this tin up and see the high level of rigging in this election.

Yobe State:
Accredited votes: 601,056
Total votes cast: 586,137

Rejected votes: 226,772
APC: 497,914
PDP: 50,763
*Sum: 775,449*

When u sum it you will find out that it has passed the Accredited vote with 174,393. Who are they fooling. I want an agent to raise this question and I pray they will do that because I believe they're not fools.
Pls if we can reach out to our superior they should analyse this very well

It therefore means that the excess may have arose from overvoting, the reasons they were rejected. The returning officers explained this when they presented the results.

It's only a fool that would think those results from SE were right.

Faulty card readers were deployed to east.
Massed were harassed and intimidated from voting.
Many polling units started very later and couldn't give room for people to vote before the closed.
Thumb printed papers were burnt.

The only thing I would say that is Atiku and his cohorts are experiencing karma

The northerners n Muslims supporting buhari knows exactly why they are doing so for buhari serves their interest very well but for the Southerners n especially the Christians who are willing to destroy one another for buhari come 2023 they shall realized their folly,I sympathize with obi but what happened was pre-planned n supported by some of his kinsmen,what the Southerners should know now is this, buhari has shown that the north can choose to hold on to power for as long as they like with their inflated underaged voting strength,by controlling the security apparatus of this country n leveraging on the greed n disunity of the Southerners to set them against each other,the Southerners especially the Christians would have to quickly find ways of removing the animosity n disunity amongst them or they shall continue to lament n grumble while the "illiterate n poverty" north shall continue to scoff at them while the clandestine pursuit of the Islamic agenda Continue until it becomes too late.

For future purpose, I presume we concentrate on the card readers machine for election. Any given area where card readers malfunctions, I believe a new date and time should be set aside and a functional machine provider for that purpose. This will go a long way to minimize the incidence associated with card reading excuses. our law should only, in this age, allow card reader for election.
