Shut up its the truth. They didn't know PDP will win some northern states, They were too distracted with rivers and Akwaibom.

This election was massively rigged. The disaster called APC know that's the only way they can cling to their diminishing power

This crazy man wont tweet about the End of Saraki dynasty in Kwara. Had PDP won Lagos, he and Reno would have been disturbing the cyberspace with hypocritical congratulations. Useless pigs

what hypocritical congratulations are you talking about? it"s obvious you are one of those fanatics who shy away from truth and reality. who will ever think APC will loose Kano to the opposition? Clear case of "HOW ARE THE MIGHTY FALLEN"

Keep deceiving yourself, what is the difference between Abba and Ganduje? If it isn't party politics, no need for inconclusive. As it stands Ganduje can still spring up a surprise then you will start singing a different song. Park well, enlightened ko

No need for inconclusive Too much ignorance
Gqnduje can still spring up?? Are you normal

dont compare kano to rivers, kano state is light years above rivers when it comes0 to politics.

they re radical and will stand their ground, the average mallomite in kano though may not speak english is very enlightened about the happenings in his terrain, they have small radios which they get info from bbc hausa, voa and radio deutsch.

unlike the average rivers person who is only interested in bole, bunkering and thuggery.

they dont read nor listen to events affecting them.

If Kano citizens are so wise then ganduje would not have been so close to get an inconclusive.

The fact that he got enough votes to force an inconclusive, shows he has a lot of blind support.
In fact he may still win.

Of course they have reasons to vote for ganduje. At least he said no to godfatherism. And halted it from its inception. And that is the major cause of his arc rivalry with kwankwaso
His major problems are not responding properly to that bribery video, not spending much on capital expenditure, and withdrawing the scholarship given to students abroad

This is not a win for PDP, it is a rejection of corruption. Both Atiku and Ganduje have been rejected because of their sticky fingers.
But they voted Buhari who is not corrupt?
They voted El Rufai whose corruption record as FCT minister cannot be rivalled even in 100 lifetimes to come?
Mr Man the Northern governor or executive is one of the most corrupt sets of administrators or leaders Nigeria can have.The only difference is that his/Southern one likes to flaunt illgotten wealth through,while his/her more corrupt Northern counterpart goes low-key.
General Abdulsalam despite his international recognition and seemingly good record while Head of State stole more in his few months in power than Obasanjo could have managed in 8.

Is there an announced corruption allegation against Bala Mohammed that has verifiable evidence like that of Ganduje's?Dankwambo may have performed but his people may have a grouse against him for something you may not know. My point is this-thee guys are more politically aware that us southerners. Why do you think El-rufai won in spite of people accusing him of being a religious bigot?You think if he had no integrity and antecedents of performance he woud have smelt that seat again?Even at that, his election was so close cos he chose a muslim deputy thereby making people vote along ethnic lines. See Borno , for instance, they still delivered over a million votes. I read how people wrote here that there were rigged and results were written and I shook my head in dismay. The north will keep ruling Nigeria if those of us in the south do not change our mentality about elections. Our views in the south is also mostly influenced by the christian religion and pastors who usually advise against christians involving in politics because it is perceived as dirty in Nigeria. All these need to syop and southerners need to be more enlightened and educated on electoral processes in order to stop all these social media wailings whenever they get a lleader they think in not worth representing them.

Sophisticated my foot when Gov. Dankwambo of Gombe the best performing governor in north east lost a senatorial election. If I also make mention of Senator Bala Mohammed former FCT minister you would say he is corrupt but also cruising to victory here in Bauchi. Park well if you don't have better things to say

Well with the impunity and brazen corruption of Ghandollar, letting him continue would have been outrageous. But worse happens in Nigeria.

Zombies claimed EFCC could not investigate Ghandollar due to impunity. Let's see after May 29th.

Someone needs to educate Ben Bruce on the true moral of this story.
This goes to show that the northerners abhor corruption and corrupt people.

Voted against Ganduje like they did Atiku.

They really don't care if Atiku went to America like Eddie Murphy.

Quote me wen d rigging is done

I'd not all the states that the elections were declared inconclusive. They would have done so but did not have enough security personnel to rig the election nation wide. They deployed most of them to Rivers State. But the Rivers people resisted them in some communities.

"nyamiri" is "nyem mmiri" mispronounced by northerners. It means "give me water" in Igbo so is in no way an insult.

All these need to syop and southerners need to be more enlightened and educated on electoral processes in order to stop all these social media wailings whenever they get a lleader they think in not worth representing them.

1. You made mention of El-rufai sorry I doubt if you know the demography of Kaduna. The whole of Southern Kaduna overwhelmingly voted for Ashiru the PDP candidate, mind you southern Kaduna is a Christian dominated area and all the news of herdsmen attack in Kaduna comes from that zone. Majority of Muslims voted for El-rufai while Majority of Christians voted for the PDP candidate who also is a Muslim. So don't get it wrong by saying El- rufai was voted based on integrity and performance.
2. Borno State is 70% Muslim 30% Christians. Votes from Christians went for PDP during the presidential elections but their votes were mostly voided, this is a fact. Borno politics is not something you seat up south and comment on.
3. Bala is presently been investigated by EFCC if you don't know. The issue in Bauchi is complicated than what you Southerners think. The present governor is
Igbira from Kogi state by tribe. His father worked in Bauchi, so his family settled in Bauchi. They never knew this until when he was elected as a governor in 2015. He contested against the same Senator Bala but the "APC CHANGE" tsunami that blew the north then, he the present governor benefitted from it. Only Gov Dankwanbo and Darius Ishaku survived it. On this same forum, when Hon. Yakubu Dogara decamped from APC, some people who don't understand how politics in the north play out were quick to say he just buried himself politically by defecting not knowing that Dogara comes from the Christian dominated zone of Bauchi. Dogara is loved by his people, they can die for him because he is the highest Christian office holder in Bauchi state. Elections in Bauchi has been declared inconclusive because the entire result from Tafawa Balewa LGA were cancelled. This is a Christian local government among which Dogara represents. The present governor didn't campaign there because he already knew the won't vote for him. But the Returning officer of Bauchi state whom I know very well as an APC apologist went ahead to cancel the whole result for the LGA even when the RO and Electoral officer of the LGA were able to calculate and reconciles the exact result with acceptance from party agents that was even after APC thugs attacked the local government collation office and took away the results sheet.
4. Each time I hear Southerners commenting on politics as it relates to the north I laugh. It is more easy for a northerner to determine the outcome of elections in the South than it is for a Southerner to do same in the north. Politics is the north in States such as Kaduna, Adamawa, Taraba, Gombe and partly Bauchi and Borno religion plays a big role of you don't you.

Really, but the presidential election was less violent than these and better rated by observers. So the man who lost his polling unit was supposed to win the presidential election, or perhaps he was rigged at his polling unit too? and all his generals who lost their Wards,LGs and states like Saraki, Obasanjo, Buba Galadima,Kwanakwaso and a host of others, those were rigged at their units too?
