Unreasonable argument!

Even the card reader that the inec chairman kept insisting should be used in the election proper is no where found in the electoral law hence whoever uses the card reader as a reason to nullify an election is only wasting his time and resources!

Most states did not make use of the card reader...thats why there was massive rigging in almost all the polling units!

That's the main reason why the president tactically and intentionally declined from signing the amended electoral law which explicitly includes the use of card readers and an electronic transmission of results!

Objectively,evidences suggest that jime won that election.how could he have won benue south and fail woefully in the tiv areas.how can buhari garner more votes than him? How can people still be voting a failure like ortom

Most parts of the failure happened when he was in APC. That was the reason he changed his political party. How will Jime win the election in TIV? There was a time the TIVs said they were ready to be crucified with Ortom. Clearly, you have not followed the election very well. Ortom is TIV and Jime I think is Igede. How on earth do u think his people will vote against him? You are supposed to know better.


Talking about Buhari gathering more votes than Jime. There are two things one, the tribe two something does not add up with respect to Buhari's votes.

senatordave1:

You are correct.how can jime suddenly start losing in all the tiv areas buhari won? So buhari is now more popular than jime

How can Ganduje start losing in Kano where Buhari won landslide

senatordave1:

Even if you remove rigging,buhari still won.atiku had no chance

I don't have problem with that. Please accept the defeat of apc in many states in same spirit as that of pdp.

senatordave1:

Do you even know what defeat is

You certainly don't!

Weak governor fighting for comeback...

Hmmm

Jime won in Apa state

Jime won benue south because his wife is from benue south �
Btw Tiv ppl out number idoma 3-1 in benue
secondly , Jime is just another Akume and ApCshit puppet
first thing they will do is scrap our " Anti open grazing law" which we don't want
Finally , Buharig is a failure yet u voted him
Leave us with our ortomatic failure we like it like that
that name "JiMe " mean Backwardness in TIv
he can go and be governor in Apa states

Kennyprince:
Iam from benue state and can tell you categorically that leaving party aside, Apc won that election hands down. Ortom knows how to rig election and those areas he won have said it all: for instance, Guma is ortom village where he gave no vote to apc, gwer west is his wife's place. Logo is former governor suswam village, another thief. Etc so let it be known that benue never voted ortom

You cannot claim jime won without giving us figures. If u want us to believe u give us fgures.

senatordave1:

Bauchi and rivers are open.there is no battle in plateau or sokoto,its gone.like atiku's defeat,you arent seeing the signs

Which Bauchi and Rivers are opened?

Lolz.....funny guy

I have seen some strangers commenting on Benue elections as if they were from the state and know about political machanics of the state. For avoidance of doubt, Ortom of PDP won the elections flawlessly. Our good people of Benue have been killed and maimed by buhari fulani led govt and would never allow apc to come and open up our state as grazing reserve,. The result of the elections you see reflects our people resolve to enforce the anti open grazing law of the state and banish fulani herdsmen from Benue totally.

The rerun is meaningless because Ortom is leading with 81,540 votes already. Remember the votes in contest now is just 121,000 registered voters. And our study of INEC PVC collection report revealed that only about 67,000 voters actually collected PVC in those affected polling units. Then when you factor in the fact that it is not every one that collect PVC will vote that day, as many would unavoidably be away from the elections. Ortom will lead Benue and defend benue till 2023.

Jime and Akume of APC are miyetti allah agents being fronted by buhari and fulani cabal to hijack the state and cancel the anti open grazing lwas to give fulani access to the hitherland to graze their cows. We have rejected them and would not accept any attempt to subvert the voice og God encapsulated in the massive votes of our good Benue people.

the same manual accredidation that gave Buhari victory in the presidential election. Maybe Atiku should be declared winner too.

only hope that Atifku would not commit suicide after..all his remaining expectations has been dashed

After Benue....which next?...for the lifeless man?....shame to all the thieves and their supporters!

jrusky:
Which apc?

If even Benue people are mad their madness is not about bringing back apc to their Givetment house.

Which apc if I may ask again? Una no well.

Which election observers are they talking about I guess not all those ones who came to slept in fie star hotel, eat our food, collect dollars and make mockery of us?
Una no well I repeat.

' Benue people ' Benue people ' which Benue people? Even from All threads on Nairaland about Benue Politics, if you are observant you'll realize that the average Benue indigene detest Ortom to the core. How he managed to come up with those figures still remain a mistery. When we're talking about failure you guys from outside the state keep talking about party. To hell with any party. Besides was he not in PDP then APC almost throughout his tenure then back to PDP again? Ortom is the perfect definition of failure and the worst governor we've ever had bro.

One word to answer you: Kano

There they go again. The only thing guys outside the state talk about is party.... PDP this, APC that, Jime is Igede? How ridiculous? Both Ortom and Jime are Tivs from the same zone! Let me school you a bit. The people of zone A(Tivs) will only vote Ortom so he should complete his rubbish and go. Allowing Jime win will mean 12years of Zone B(Tivs) rule. Zone A will not want that. ZoneB will only vote for Ortom because he is "their brother". Of course Jime is their brother too. Zone C(Idomas etc) is a known PDP zone but chose not to vote Ortom for two reasons; 1. He performed very very very poorly 2.Jime's wife is Idoma. These are the sentiments that played out during the just (in)concluded elections. Benue has never had any governor from zone C, Only zone A and B.So my friend, Jime is not an Igede man......... And like I always say, all sentiments aside, Ortom is the worst we've ever had.

If Ortom is the worst, how will you describe Yahya Bello? Go to Kogi state. Or better still visit Okene and Lokoja before making up your mind. You are very lucky to have a governor that defends the interest of his people. You are only being sentimental or angry because Ortom decamped back from APC. Sorry you hear. Manage until 2023. By then Ortom would have succeeded in making the state safer than he met it. Also by that time you too would have decamped to PDP there.

Stop saying what u dont knw or understand..
How possible is it for ortom to have rigged wit heavy presence of soldiers and security agencies?
Tiv voted ortom because they believed apc supported the fulany killing their ppl..all the local govts.won by pdp were attacked by fulany herdsmen including agatu.

Which Bauchi and Rivers are opened?

Lolz.....funny guy

What is funny is the way you were moaning when presidential results rolled out

ChristianNorth:

Bauchi is even more statistically impossible than Benue. PDP won massively all the 17 LGA and 22 of the state constituencies.

Which magic you wan do?

Only Plateau is confirmed for APC. Those guys are fools.

Only Sokoto are open, Kano is almost in the bag.

Bauchi is 4000 difference.lets wait till inec finish their collation tomorrow

senatordave1:

By right,jime should be winning makurdi and gboko,konshisha and vandeikya massuvely.how can ortom get more votes in logo than what he got in guma ? I blame akume and jime also.they must have seen all the evil tactics of pdp in the presidential polls and should have prepared to counter it.

you and your foolish theories...so who rigged apc out of our?? if we follow this observer biased view then atiku should be declared president...jime and apc shd gather any evidence they have and head to court...pdp has won benue

ChristianNorth:
Ortoms is leading with 81k and about 80k collected their PVCs and we don't expect all these people to file out and vote.

Bauchi, Adamawa, Rivers and Benue are already in the bag.

Kano, Sokoto and Plateau is where the battle lies. Yoruba moslems will point all the antenna to Kano on 23rd March. If they lose Kano and Sokoto, they should forget about DSP and HoR Speakership and of course, 2023.

plateau is won by apc already it seems u are more of a pdp apologist Dan putting out d record straight

senatordave1:

Bauchi and rivers are open.there is no battle in plateau or sokoto,its gone.like atiku's defeat,you arent seeing the signs

see how sentiment ll kill u... pdp has won bauchi even if a re run is done in tafawa pdp ll win...inec ll declare pdp on Tuesday in bauchi...in Rivers u really think aac can win right??... d battle ground is Kano and sokoto others have been won and lost

senatordave1:

Yes just like this pdp apologist forming inec official


Onyebuchi Ezigbo in Abuja


The United States-Nigeria Law Group, an election observer initiative, has released a damning election assessment report of the 2019 election, where it clearly stated that most of the issues that troubled the 2019 general election were deliberately contrived to assist the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) to retain power at the centre.


Of particular note is an aspect of the report which claimed that the President Muhammadu Buhari-led administration, in both the Judiciary and INEC matters, violated the constitution of Nigeria, which guarantees their independence from interference.
From its findings, the group posited that while the electorate prepared for elections, it was as though the incumbent was “preparing a military operation.”

In a statement signed by Mr. Emmanuel Ogebe and obtained by THISDAY at the weekend, the Group said it observed conscious efforts to compromise the elections and raised early warnings as well as concerns, which have now been validated and proven by the resulting self-sabotaged elections.

For example, it noted that INEC announced inconclusive elections in 6 states out of which PDP was reportedly leading in all but one.
“This is highly suggestive and unsettling all by itself. However, there are further indications that similar results in states in which the APC was leading were not declared inconclusive. Some states where a rerun was illogical, because the mathematical probabilities could not conceivably produce a different outcome have still been scheduled for rerun.


“The principle on cancelled votes versus margin of victory, which ostensibly informed the inconclusive declarations in state elections, was not uniformly applied in the presidential elections. So far the following states have been declared inconclusive – the most ever in Nigerian history – Benue, Plateau, Adamawa, Sokoto, Kano and Bauchi states.

“It is especially noteworthy that in the case of Kano State, the PDP was overwhelming leading when the Deputy Governor seized and tore the results of the last Local Government to be declared. This brazen act of brigandage was caught on video and is perhaps emblematic of how the election results overall have been hijacked.”
On the postponement of the presidential and National Assembly elections from February 16 to 23, the group said its investigations and analysis indicated that the action was orchestrated by the ruling party based on its dissatisfaction with judiciary pronouncements on cases affecting its candidates.

According to the election observer group, the Buhari regime had shown unambiguously its displeasure with both the Judiciary and INEC for not delivering its preferred outcomes.
It further held that there was a clear pattern of desperation, constitutional violation and fabrication in the actions of the regime towards both key institutions that have a critical role in the elections.
Thus, in this post-election report, the group detailed various instances in which it said the incumbent president had shown intent and discernible actions to undermine the elections.


While enumerating several shortcomings of the 2019 election, the USNLG expressed grave concern at the brazen militarisation of the elections.
It added that in furtherance of its partisan agenda in both the Judiciary and INEC, the President Buhari-led APC administration fabricated a faux court ruling on the basis of which it justified its unconstitutional acts.

For instance, the USNLG report noted that: “The Buhari regime acting ostensibly on a private petition interfered with both the Judiciary and INEC regarding the removal of CJN and election postponement respectively.”
It said the President’s refusal to sign the electoral reforms into law showed clearly “the mens rea or criminal intent by the president not to allow the conduct of credible elections from the word go.

“Indeed, the president is on record for having said following the passage of the ‘not-too-young to run’ law, that it should be only after his re-election. This Freudian slip cements the notion that he nixed the electoral reforms for the same self-perpetuation.
“For these and other reasons, it is transparently clear that the Buhari regime had motive, opportunity, mens rea and actus reus (criminal intent and culpable acts) and declared intent and discernible actions to undermine the elections. In this respect, they were successful in premeditated failure,” it said.

The election observer group therefore said it decided to share its report for the benefit of the electorate and the international community for the sake of global democracy.
With regards to the issue of malpractices and activities of compromised poll officials, the observer group said it has firsthand report of what transpired in Benue State, for instance, on the eve of the rescheduled presidential and National Assembly polls of February 16.

“We gathered that out of a list of about 500 names submitted by a federal institution to INEC as poll officials, a ruling party Senator selected those whom he deemed he could ‘work with’. In addition, the APC Senator doled out millions of naira, which was distributed to the INEC-trained poll officials at a location in Makurdi, the Benue State Capital. The temporary poll officials were called by phone to come and collect the serving Senator’s cash in person from the said location.”

It also said that before the governorship election of March 9, a university professor was apprehended with election materials in Benue State and his vehicle burnt by irate voters, thus reiterating the fact that it witnessed firsthand, the distribution of cash from the back of a vehicle to political operatives for unknown purposes and particularly stunned that the party functionaries were escorted by police.

The USNLG report stated that operatives of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) apprehended a vehicle loaded with currency in the trunk of a vehicle of a politician linked to the APC in February.

While expressing its concern over President Buhari’s actions and inactions before, during and after the elections, the observer group said it was deeply concerned at the president’s remarks that electoral malpractice would attract summary execution.
“We are gravely concerned at the brazen militarisation of these elections. Buhari has gone beyond militarisation to martialisation of the election process. We are more concerned at remarks attributed to the Chief of Army Staff that, ‘If Commander-in-Chief has given order to the Nigerian Army to that effect, rest assured that order will be totally and effectively obeyed without any ifs or buts.”
Specifically, the election observer group lamented the military invasion of Rivers State and described it as troublesome.

“The military invasion and rampage in Rivers State is troublesome on several levels not the least of which is: The ruling party APC was not even a candidate in the elections yet the government interfered with military might to rig in the most ignoble and egregious way ever.

“The wicked, oppressive and violent attacks on innocent civilians and their homes and property in the formerly restive Niger Delta just for elections, has the real propensity for re-igniting another armed insurrection in the region.

Don't type this long story here next time. we not here to read text books

U obviously dont understand politics well.
Vandeikya, Konshisha, Ushongo and Kwande all voted massively for Ortom so that power can return to their zone in 2023. Gwer east, Gwer west, Buruku and Guma all came under heavy attacks from fulani herdsmen, so they voted Ortom massively in protest to the FG. Logo played a very significant role in Ortom's victory thanks to the alliance wt Suswam.
Senator Akume's lies that Benue people are killing themselves came back to haunt him and his candidate Jime.The people who know their killers voted in protest against the APC.

Bauchi is 4000 difference.lets wait till inec finish their collation tomorrow

if apc is sure of themselves in bauchi why are de opposing inec decision to collate results in tafawa why is d goveno running to Abuja to save his burnt ass which is gone already u are so sentimental...make apc give u appointment

They stole in hurry and the thing will surely back fire, Inec should disregard any results from any voting center that card reader is not used and call for fresh election in all the area they should not not award score for non compliance exercise.

How do I explain before you understand that I am not partisan? And you think I liked him when he was under APC? Oh please! Who even liked him then? . He was and is a failure. I said worst BENUE's ever had. Who mentioned Kogi?

Poanan:


Most parts of the failure happened when he was in APC. That was the reason he changed his political party. How will Jime win the election in TIV? There was a time the TIVs said they were ready to be crucified with Ortom. Clearly, you have not followed the election very well. Ortom is TIV and Jime I think is Igede. How on earth do u think his people will vote against him? You are supposed to know better.

Talking about Buhari gathering more votes than Jime. There are two things one, the tribe two something does not add up with respect to Buhari's votes.

Keep quiet, you don’t know anything about Benue.
