No, it is nt an excuse. This is summary of what the govt is:


SOCIALISM: You have two cows, and you give one to your neighbor.

COMMUNISM: You have two cows, the government takes both and gives you milk.

FASCISM: You have two cows, the government takes both and sells you milk.

NAZISM: You have two cows, the government takes them and kills you.

CAPITALISM: You have two cows, you sell one and buy a male. You multiply your cows and there is economic growth. You sell them, you retire and you live on your profits.

MODERN CAPITALISM: You have two cows, you sell one and buy a male. You multiply your cows and you buy those of your neighbors. The latter become your shepherds, you pay them in monkey currencies and they die poor.

AMERICAN SOCIETY: You have two cows, you sell one and you have to make the other one to produce milk like 4 cows. By dint of producing beyond her capacity, she dies. You take a consultant to understand this death.

FRENCH SOCIETY: You have two cows, you go on strike because you want a third.

GERMAN SOCIETY: You have two cows, you modify them so that they live 100 years, eat once a month and treat themselves.

CHINESE SOCIETY: You have two cows, you sell milk to your compatriots and you produce plastic milk to export to the rest of the world.

BLACK/ AFRICAN SOCIETY: You have two cows, you eat them all the same day and you dream that donors or the international community give you others. You turn to God and hope for miracle cattle. You fast 40 days and 40 nights without eating or drinking so that the cows will fall from heaven. At the end, you die in extreme poverty.

This unnecessary explanation is an insult to the sensibilities of Nigerians because she could very well have voted against the proposed amendment in favor of her committees work. Also, she did not 'abstain' but was 'absent' during the vote, there is a difference.

If you don't understand her position, you cannot understand why Nigeria is not ready for electronic voting yet.

She is a member of that committee and also a member of the PDP whom we all know want electronic voting for whatever reasons best known to them.

It is very obvious that the committee through information from experts have been informed of the great danger of electronic voting and have decided to play it down which is against what her party wants. She can't serve 2 masters at the same time by voting either way, so she abstained to avoid displeasing both masters.

Besides, if PDP want electronic voting, why didn't they do it when they held sway?

This is my opinion, people save money in the banking system that relies on electronic means to conduct business. These moneys are protected by insurance that the banks take. Meanwhile somehow, criminals always find ways to temper with these electronic money but the insurance stands as a cover.

If the Nigerian elections were to be electronic, which can be tempered by criminals, there will not be any insurance. The constitution has no insurance for such a scenario, so this could lead to chaos. The courts which is to be an insurance cannot be an insurance because they rely on physical evidence which the electronic system does not leave. Any tempering of electronic election will either cause chaos or totally lead to lack of trust in the electoral system.

The risk is too great to take. Anyone who has the interest of this country at heart will not think of electronic elections.

I believe PDP are aware and have realized that the only way to get a shot at the presidency is to do the PDP thing, make the elections vulnerable for their own mischief. Same way they conducted Nigeria's worst elections in 2003 and 2007

One na one day....e go shock this people what masses will do to them...

Masses who have nothing in their stomach can't fight or do anything ! If you understand that hunger is a weapon of war then,you'll know that the very high level of inflation as it affects food prices in the country now is not an accident; it is a deliberate process to weaken the masses ! Those politicians are ways smarter than the masses,especially gullible Nigerian masses.

What fight can ever be in a man that has not eaten for days ? That's Buhari's plan; to drain whatever energy that is left in you guys with hunger and poverty such that you'll all be at his mercy ! That is "Alimajiri" system of governance whereby the highly impoverished masses will still be saying "ranka dede" to the same politicians that are responsible for their pitiable level of poverty !

Nigerians should have been on the streets since two years ago,fighting for their sanity and dignity and to liberate themselves from the obvious shackles of poverty which they are being subjected to deliberately by these wicked political class.

But then,una mumu neva do !

They are not alone in this, the 3 senators from Ogun state were in the "toilet" during the voting according to Reuben Abati on Arise Tv. It's so shameful that these guy are not representing their constituency but themselves! Hence they have no business being there and should as a matter of urgency be recalled.

These foolish people make it seem as if all the 36 states in Nigeria don't use phone and don't have access to Internet.

Nigeria is just one sick country. Should this be even subjected to debate or vote in 21st Century? What is the government even doing towards achieving the UN Sustainable Development Goals 2030?

Only God knows who cursed us in this country? Blessed but act like we are cursed.

Let me give you an actual story. Years ago, i did a small job and was to be paid 50k but payment delayed. 6months later i got a crdt alert by someone i didn't know, i thought it was an error. The bank alert at the time didn't show your account balance so i didn't know my balance. I sent some to withdraw 20k using my atm. I didn't get debit alert but the person informed me he tried 3 times but all showed unsuccessful. He went to another bank, check the balance and saw only 10k and he successfully got cash for me. It was a year later that i went to complain for my 50k that they asked me to bring statement of account. It was from my statement of account that i got to realize that the 50k had been paid and that the 3 undispensed attempts to withdraw by my friend were actually atm dispense errors and had debited a total of 60k from my account.

The moral of the long story is that a hacker can permanently temper with an electronic election leaving no record the hack ever happening leading to total lack of faith in the electoral process and outright anarchy.

A manual election leaves, copies of evidence, leaves witnesses and so many traces for the court to deliver justice. But electronic election leaves nothing for a judge to use.

You vote party A and a hacker changes it to B but you will never even know it was changed. You can't even go to court.

We operate a closed ballot system, so to make electronic election possible, we need to change it to open ballot so that every ballot has a name and every vote can be tracked.
