There are certain states in the north wherein a Muslim can't become their governors namely: Benue, Plateau and Taraba, and vice versa, APC should have tried a better idea by fielding a Christian.

The difference is clear

Congratulations! May he Continue To be a A Good And Best He could ever be

Happy with this. I think Atiku will have a good case in court.

KANO on my MIND!

Power to the people

Boom

Good.

I really love the gubernatorial election results this year.

I'm only disappointed at Kaduna

I just hope all these PDP e-warriors will learn to be factual and unbiased in their assumptions.

The presidency is not influencing this INEC in anyway.

PDP the only part in Nigeria, not the other party that is formed on deceit, soon it will collapse

Interesting Politics playing out in the North.

I hope PDP will win more than 10 states

pdp should take it easy na, they just clearing all states.
Who would thought pdp will win Oyo state, kudos to all Oyo people out there.

PDP is taking over. 2023, God's grace

Nice

By the time these elections will be over. APC will become weaker than it was in 2015.

Mama taraba nko

So a whole gassol apc won

Wukari people are baaaad

Congrats to Governor Darius on his re-election

his silence on the needless killing in Rivers shows he is an accomplice.

Hypocrites!

Suddenly, INEC Chairman is a good man. Suddenly, democracy is at work!

When APC wins, they shout "rigging", but when PDP wins, they claim it was "free and fair".

Would Obasanjo have allowed his party lose so many elections without directly or indirectly intimidating INEC to ensure "win at all cost"?

Nincompoops and daft clowns all over social media.

Why can't people be objective?

It is clear that after 2015 elections, these elections in 2019 are the 2nd best since the return of democracy in 1999! So many political heavyweights, godfathers, and politicians with deep pockets lost!
