Most of you lack sense......that was how you ignorant educated illiterates misinterpreted Buhari's 5% statement in the US in 2015 as Igbos being 5% of Nigeria's voters.......ignoramuses forming sophistication.



What INEC means is that out of 100% population of registered voters, only 3.29% came out to vote.


Just as Buhari's 5% meant that out of total 100% vote Buhari got, that just 5% came from the Southeast region to him......not that Southeast is 5% of total voters in Nigeria.


Even common sense ought to tell you that Igbos are even much more in number than Yorubas if not same. Every state you go in Nigeria, there is at least 5000 Igbo voters.......and Igbos alone make up at least 25 - 35% of total voters in Lagos alone.



Most of you just went to school and be looking at women's ikebe, no single brain

Millimann:
They were just sending a message.

BluntCrazeMan:
No matter what happens, no matter how you see it,, if we refuse to go and vote, we are still the ones loosing.

ahiboilandgas:
if na pig kanu now 50000 youths will turn out ......u want presidency will such votes una never serious...get ready to tinibu/ribadu presidency...

PEPPERified:
Tell yourself the truth... are you motivated to stand on the queue and cast your vote?

SonofLothbrok:


You fools voted Buhari two time. What an impact you have made.

MyVILLAGEpeople:


Even if everyone votes, do our votes really counts in this country??. Especially under this present administration that don't give a damn about its people.

Prussian:
Buhari called them 5%, they were crying. Buhari was wrong tho.

They're actually 3%

Prussian:


Already looking for where to hide instead of taking the blame for the shameful figures.
With e-voting, you will record 1% voter participation.

bobowaja:

Tired of voting those who will represent you? This is a dumb excuse

donprinyo:

u trust blockchain but you dont trust e-voting?

BluntCrazeMan:
But the Nigerian Proposed E-voting doesn't work with the Blockchain Technology..
They are proposing to use the Central-Server System.

Resurrection212:
We are the problem of ourselves. We have power to change things in our hands but we will not do it just because of some bad thoughts.

However I congratulate the winner and I also commend the people of Abia for standing against oppressor and family company which kalu is trying to turn APC to in Abia state. Very greed man.

Same way okorocha failed to imposes his brother in law on us in imo state.

donprinyo:
e-voting is the only answer. as for me and my family, its never wise to risk our lives for rubbish politicians

bobowaja:
East no get population. Na the same people deh make mouth against jagaban

gidgiddy:


People have been voting since 1960 and it got them no where. Nigeria is simply not workable

People are tired of voting. Its not voting that will anything in Nigeria, only a revolution will change things. We can only hope that it wont be a violent one

Emzenoz:
in a country that the third runner up can be declared the winner out from the blue ?.... Everything is fundamentally wrong with Nigeria. even those that are votes for what do they do ? especially the senate... they don't do any project ... they are just rubber stamp for the presidency

Sammerboi:
I see peoples blasting those absentees as if their vote could change things. Let’s them organize a referendum vote in the east and see how numbers will troop in to vote.

FBIBOT:


This is the reason why rigging is easy in Nigeria... Low turnouts and availability of blank ballot papers...... There is rigging everywhere even in advance countries but high turnouts and high valid votes makes the rigging invisible.... In Nigeria low turnouts and high number of invalid votes gives them more room to manipulate results

Nkpitime:

You lie , you forget that there is a big insecurity in the country and it is a dangerous journey going to pulling unit to cast vote and if we go by your analysis politicians will hire thugs to destrupt the process , putting people's lives in dangerous situation , then when you here election is coming no body will advises you whether to go out and vote or not

AtlanticB:
Muslim _Muslim ?? Oga wetin you smoke

SmartPolician:


The 96.71% that didn't turn out to vote are tired of a system that doesn't work.

Come to think of it, how have those who left more important things to vote fared? Yes, we are all in the same shithole.

That's what you get when people have lost hope in a dysfunctional system.

pepetua:

I don't know how you people are seeing the whole issue,for me not voting is not because am tired of the failed government or no conpetent candidate of my choice or the believe that my vote don't count in Nigeria political setting but rather, i saw one going out there to queue in the name of voting as one exposing his or her life to danger in the hand of those political thugs and hoodlums that can do undone to victimized their political opponent so as to rig election and i believed that most people that refused to go out there to cast their votes has the same fear as there's no security in the exercise.

PaChukwudi44:


will you shut up!!! the last senatorial bye-election in lagos pnly had about 7.6% voters turnout

BluntCrazeMan:
Have you ever asked yourself why rigging works in Nigeria??

It's because there are plenty of unused ballot papers (which the riggers at the Polling-units would use for their multiple thumb-printing).

And also, there are low voters turnouts (which the dubious Collation officers would easily convert to whichever value they want).

Had it been that the Voters Turnouts are huge, there won't be any room for rigging.

Ogbeniomo:
The one at Asorock we voted massively have we stop Rants?
