ballot boxes arrive at Eagle square

And we are live in Eagles Square on NTA

YOu have to pass through 5 to 6 checkpoints before entering the Square, Ikhedia Ohakim is very happy and so is the Minister for Defence. The Delegates look very excited.

Minister for education wishes Nigeria "goodluck"
Minister for Interior would be voting for Goodluck Jonathan
A "distunguished' Senator who Nigeria knows very well is assuwaring Nigerians that we will see a high standard of elections today.


chrisbenogor wonders how even 4k dolls would do massive wonders for him, it would amount to an oyakhilome in his life now oh

Good job chris.

Slightly off topic wondering, I can't believe Tony Anenih is still alive issuing his usual threats, I thought Oshiomole rid us of that national bully?

Delegates that have been accredited are making their way to Eagle Square at the moment!

atmosphere is tense, serious screening before you enter eagle square as security is very tight. Its a bit difficult for those staying in the outskirts to enter the city cos of security, my friend staying at suleja was turned back from entering abuja on her way to work this morning. I refused to leave my house, not too far from the square. Dint even go to work cos am so bomb-scared *my boss understands thou* life is good o! We pray it goes well sha.
Following it on NTA live. Some delegates are seated while some are still being screened at the entrance.

Haba Mama Sarah Jubrin, this your phone looks too cheap for your status na!

Jigawa state say they will vote Goodluck

Nasarawa state tell me their vote is a secret

No incumbent President of Nig has ever lost in the primaries (I guess) and i pray it wont be so for GEJ with this Atiku guy (was a fan). I think the Obasanjo factor might probably play out **hopefully**.

Yet to begin but y isnt there any entertainment? Cultural dance and stuff? Security abi?

You want them to ship in bombs via the drums abi?

^^Gbam lol

really 'lol'!
Some delegates are there out of no choice, they are so damn scared for their lives. At least the extra screening at the entrance and combing of the area will calm them a little. I mean, una don chop the money, its time to get to work

follow and/or post on twitter as the event develops

Can anyone pls educate me on who the delegates are? How are delegates selected?

^^^^


Google

ok*** here comes the live band on stage** but What is he singing ?

Am sure they must av been strip-screened before entering

baba atiku don land o! Now seated beside mama sarah jubrin

Live on NTA. , It looks well organised, devoid of rancour, tight security screening. Some of the ministers that were interviewed seems enthusiastic about the whole process which i considers a sign of NO VACANCY IN ASO ROCK!

I googled too. I think any citizen can be a delegate but you have to buy application forms and be approved and screened. 4000 sounds like a lot of delegates too. I was afraid these 4000 people were big men. I was wondering how expensive it would be to settle them with $$ and positions when whoever wins becomes president.

^^
True

Benue state say they will vote Goodluck in

Ogor Ben, I salute you for this innovative and entertaining thread. Grabs my pop corn and smirnoff ice. The drama begins. OGBABA

How come Channels no dey carry PDP primaries


Why the stupit documentary that is on?

Na wa what happened to consensus candidate - All these northern states say they will vote for GEJ

My own is 4 dem 2 vote nd count d stuff, hopeful Jonathan wins, but Atiku is nt bad is jst dat he loks so despirate 4 power 2 meoo. nd he is sectional, hope he kn dt he is nt contestin 4 northern president bt Nija presidnt. Anyway Gudluck 2 Gudluck nd Atiku, hope i made myself clear, lol, !

To be clear - these are not formal announcements - one main delegate from each state is telling me, http://tumblr.com/x7f19577q5

entry polls suggest a landslide for GEJ read exit polls. That remains to be seen. Off for a breathe

baring last minute miracle  - na the only way atiku go win.


In Uk or US  - u get exit polls  but for Nigeria no such thing  - Atiku fit double the dollars and everything fit change last minute.

Yo blacksta, where r u getting all these Info from?

Indicatns frm sum sources dat a significant no of deals hav bn struck tiltin things in d directn of GEJ.


As i mentioned earlier only a miracle can stop GEJ from winning - GEj has deployed all every single power of the incumbent - even our foreign reserve.
