Arrrested And Detained For 4 Hours For Trying To Take Poll Pictures by hoodboy(m): 10:51pm On Apr 16, 2011 |
I was a witness to ballot box stuffing in my ward(alakahia uniport rivers state) I tried to discretely take a picture of the inec officials and one of the riggers accousted me but for the prompt intervention of the policemen I would have become a casualty today. But they later turned around and detained me , claiming that what I had just done was a criminal offence. It cost me 4hrs of jail time, my girlfriend's tears and ten grand to regain my freedom. The next time some Mofo tells me about a breathe of fresh air I will tell him to shove it up his arse. Cause the only thing that is fresh is corruption |

and how do we know this dude is not making the story up? |
Re: Arrrested And Detained For 4 Hours For Trying To Take Poll Pictures by hoodboy(m): 11:23pm On Apr 16, 2011 |
Ain't making up no story, I really duff my heart to folks that endanger their lives to get news. It was really sad knowing most of the. Community peeps(c.s.o and some others) were in support of what was going on. According to them I was paid by the opposition and was working against Goodluck and I must be a not so proper ibo man |

hoodboy: Please take heart - sorry for your loss - look on the bright side - what if u could not come with 10 k - which is rather unfortunate. @post Yet some people will accuse of north of being bigots - while the same is practiced in the south Nigeria is a complex jungle - |

So far ballot stuffers getting maimed in the north, whistle-blowers getting maimed in the south! Pls keep the reports coming. @ Poster thank God for your life. |

Were you the only voter in that polling unit that the staff will be stuffing ballot boxes in front of voters and party agents? |

This is not democracy. We need to look for a Nigerian Solution to a Nigerian Problem. Else we will just be going back and forth. Welcome to another 4yrs of business as usual. |
Re: Arrrested And Detained For 4 Hours For Trying To Take Poll Pictures by hoodboy(m): 11:51pm On Apr 16, 2011 |
@ottokx: men it wasn't funny o! see c.s.o dey halla. And it seems to me that the Acn agent was paid off, because by the time I went back to hear the count, she wasn't there. Just some pdp peeps. What drew my attention was tHe main inec official one youth corper gal, telling the guy beside her to make surE they arranged it well and in less than 3mins some guy comes out of the adjacent room with his pocket stuffed fill with ballot sheets and he hands them over to the corper who then stuffs them in the box |

hoodboy: see no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil And I hope for your safety the pic in your profile is not you. But if it is I kinda understand why you were picked up - [img]https://www.nairaland.com/nigeria?action=dlattach;id=253806;type=avatar[/img] I'm not quite sure what you are trying to prove - that rigging takes place in elections? Do you want a PHD for discovering rigging? Sharpen up my friend. |
Re: Arrrested And Detained For 4 Hours For Trying To Take Poll Pictures by Beaf: 12:06am On Apr 17, 2011 |
hoodboy: Lol! You went back after being jailed for four bloody hours!. . . And you were there in time for the results too? Wonders! I conclude that four hours is much shorter in Alakahia than in the rest of the known World! Not just that, but to have actually gone back to a place where you were an unwilling participant in a near deat experience, puts you in the league of characters like the Incredible Hulk. What a guy! hoodboy heads for his polling station to hear results after being locked away for four damn hours! [img]http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/1/11/Wwh.PNG[/img] |

This election is actually showing that Southerners are much more tribalistic than the so maligned North |
Re: Arrrested And Detained For 4 Hours For Trying To Take Poll Pictures by sbeezy8: 12:12am On Apr 17, 2011 |
esp those from SE.^^^ the SS didnt all vote for GEJ neither did the whole SW |
Re: Arrrested And Detained For 4 Hours For Trying To Take Poll Pictures by hoodboy(m): 12:15am On Apr 17, 2011 |
@beaf, I went back after casting my vote, wanted to hear the result of the poll. @ sun of god, stop being an Asswipe; why put up my profile pic here. |
Re: Arrrested And Detained For 4 Hours For Trying To Take Poll Pictures by Sunofgod(m): 12:18am On Apr 17, 2011 |
hoodboy: To expose your naivity. I have little sympathy for you. You need to be more cautious in how you go about things. Take it as an insult - or take it as friendly advise. |
Re: Arrrested And Detained For 4 Hours For Trying To Take Poll Pictures by OAM4J: 12:35am On Apr 17, 2011 |
Sun of god: I hope you know it is against the forum rule to display his profile picture like that. |
Re: Arrrested And Detained For 4 Hours For Trying To Take Poll Pictures by OAM4J: 12:36am On Apr 17, 2011 |
OP With the results I have seen so far from Rivers state, I believe you. |

Re: Arrrested And Detained For 4 Hours For Trying To Take Poll Pictures by EzeUche(m): 12:59am On Apr 17, 2011 |
People say the SE is tribalistic, but how can we be tribalistic when Goodluck is not even an Igbo? It just doesn't sound right. |
Re: Arrrested And Detained For 4 Hours For Trying To Take Poll Pictures by OAM4J: 1:04am On Apr 17, 2011 |
EzeUche: I doubt Ohanaze Ndigbo agrees with you. Anyway GEJ is more Azikwe than Buhari And Otueke is definitely closer to Enugu than Daura. |
Re: Arrrested And Detained For 4 Hours For Trying To Take Poll Pictures by Onlytruth(m): 1:17am On Apr 17, 2011 |
LOL, I'm laughing at this OP. Wey you think you dey sef? No be naija? All those almajiri you see near polling booth, wetin you think say dem dey do dia? Someone already addressed your naivete, so I won't even bother. Sai Jonathan! |
Re: Arrrested And Detained For 4 Hours For Trying To Take Poll Pictures by hoodboy(m): 1:21am On Apr 17, 2011 |
I really do not see myself ever voting again, I feel bad saying this. All I really wanted was to see if my vote counted(I voted opposition) well I guess I have tasted first hand the election realities in Nigeria, the only thing free and fair was the rigging. I don't know why the electorates didn't stay back to see their votes counted thouh I myself didn't initially stay back but went back as an after thought. And I can say the experience was worth it as I am no more disillusional about free and fair election |
Re: Arrrested And Detained For 4 Hours For Trying To Take Poll Pictures by hoodboy(m): 1:24am On Apr 17, 2011 |
Onlytruth: was it criminal to have taken pictures? What almajiris? I can't seem to place ur logic |
Re: Arrrested And Detained For 4 Hours For Trying To Take Poll Pictures by iluvnaija: 1:28am On Apr 17, 2011 |
(Singing fela) I SORRY SORRY O, I SORRY 4 NIGERIA, |
Re: Arrrested And Detained For 4 Hours For Trying To Take Poll Pictures by Onlytruth(m): 1:30am On Apr 17, 2011 |
hoodboy I meant almajiris up north. Do you think they would play "local detective" (like you tried to do ) to secure Jonathan's votes in say Daura or other rural North village. Southerners and their naivety sha. |
