Read the post again adn you will see HOW (not where) it was verified

priceaction:
atiku don buy market ooo, all people he was relying on, shouting at, to save him are now against him, may be he can go to cameroon government to help him. They played seriously into APC hand and they were fully humiliated. APC never make much noise , but their foot sholders were doing door to door campaingn in remote areas in the core north.

Stop joor. Door to door wetin? The average northerner just hate anything that has to do with Igbo's. Atiku romanced himself with Igbo's. Guess that's just his 'undoing'. Rubbish

The United Kingdom (UK) says Nigerians can have confidence in the outcome of the presidential election that held on Saturday.

President Muhammadu Buhari, candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), won the election with Atiku Abubakar of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) coming second.

Harriett Baldwin, UK’s minister of state for Africa, in a statement issued on Wednesday, said the result declared was consistent with the civil society parallel vote tabulation process.

“I offer my congratulations to President Buhari on securing a second term as the Nigerian President,” she said in the statement.

“The UK is a long-standing friend and partner of Nigeria and the Nigerian people, and a stable and prosperous Nigeria benefits Africa and the world.

“The Nigerian people have demonstrated resilience and a commitment to democracy. The result declared by the Nigerian election commission is consistent with the result obtained through the civil society Parallel Vote Tabulation process. Along with our international partners, the UK believes the Nigerian people can have confidence in the result.”

Atiku had rejected the result describing the election as the worst in the history of Nigeria. Following the announcement on Wednesday, he said the election witnessed an implementation of grant theft of the people’s will.

Reacting, however, Baldwin urged the opposition to challenge the result in a peaceful manner.

“We also recognise that independent Nigerian voices have expressed concerns about the conduct of the electoral process, in particular logistics and results collation, and reports of intimidation of election officials,” she said.

“We urge any party or individual who wishes to challenge the process to do so peacefully and through the appropriate legal channel and we encourage Nigerian authorities to examine all allegations of wrongdoing carefully, and take the necessary action against individuals found responsible.

“My thoughts are also with the families and friends of those who lost their lives in election-related violence. No one should die in the exercise of their democratic rights. We will continue to support Nigeria and its civil society in drawing lessons from these elections and strengthening its democracy.”

Let me get PDP right,
Is it just Atiku that is saying the election was a sham or it includes Saraki, cos at this point I expect Dino dodo to also come and say the election wasn't free n fair.

Some people from certain part of Nigeria, want Nigeria to burn for their selfish Gain we Nigerians that recognize ourselves as Nigeria Citizens must not let them have their way. The Truth is IPOB have hijacked this Election and turn it into their own agitation, they are looking for a way to cause trouble with the final result of this Election

Dudeweedlmao:
Stop reminding us that we are still under you, UK. I thought you granted us independence? Stop interfering.

But PDP wrote to UK, US, EU, etc to report now. So, as UK response isn't favorable to PDP, they should "stop interfering". Na wa oh

LordCenturion:
The nature is punishing Atiaku for looting Nigeria under the era of OBJ, as for nyammirin wailing ipob dirtiest pigs,the nature is punishing them for wishing our president death... They will never taste the power, even I will be so happy if they can allow them to have their own country because they have already stained the name "Nigeria" anyhere they travel to around the world.. Let them have biafra and see how they will rule themselves...

Of all the madness I've seen on Nairaland, none can be compared to this.

As long as a mor0n is in power, Britain will continue to milk Nigeria via the Oil Bloc held in trust for the Crown.

Many will celebrate this as news, without knowing if the West loves you, you are doing something that favors them.

Are you in this same country??

Which election was free and fair??

So all the manipulation of results and reports of coercion are fake abi??....in the north there were underage voters.

PDP did the same too when they were in power but the funny thing for me is that Buhari is doing the same thing he accused PDP of all those years he contested and lost.

The way they played it was, Buhari will have plausible deniability; like he had no idea, that things were done for him....so that he can come back and deceive people with "Mr INTEGRITY".

First ask yourself the meaning of Free , Fair and Credible...after you have defined it and understood it, then maybe you will get that it wasn't. I even have friends who worked for APC over here...I know what they were told to do. So maybe ur polling unit was but we are talking about the entire process across the country.


My own is for those of us who actually voted, I hope we did not vote based on sentiments but we voted for who we honestly believe will deliver to us a UNITED and BETTER Nigeria....becos elections are over and its back to reality; so whatever this government brings good or bad, we will all be recipients of it. The good won't be for only those who voted for APC and the bad won't be for only those who voted for PDP. The rain will fall on us all.

yes , another point... you are right.

If UK or the foreign media talk in favour of buhari before the election, PDP boys will shout fake news, source is outdated. Now they are not saying fake news

Did they conduct a parallel election ni or what are they saying? If its the same result INEC declared at the polling unit that they used in confirming the results declared at Abuja .....then its wrong!

The result will be challenged as usual. Time for judiciary to scoop from Atiku. No opposition has ever won the tribunal at the presidential level. Atiku should just stay calm and use his popularity to groom and sponsor young vibrant future leaders. He should forget being a president.

Exactly what Chief Olisa Agbakogba said!!!!

my thoughts exactly. His campaign had very promising solutions for Nigeria, Buhari will be the last president of his generation, that's such a relief. PDP really needs to use their popularity to their advantage, bring in fresh faces, reinvent themselves their 16yrs record was really all apc had to campaign with. They should start restructuring the party for next election right away rather than a year to election hoping few months campaign will do any magic.

The UK has been bribed. Can you imagine. What's does the US have to say biko

Trump is facing his own wahala at home right now, I guess he has forgotten there was any election in Nigeria or Senegal sef!
