Is it your village Constitution you are quoting here?
Nigeria's Constitution states a presidential candidate must score both a majority of votes AND at least 1/3 of the votes in 2/3 of the states. That means at least 1/3 of the votes in 24 states. If the 5 SE states boycott, that leaves 31 states from which the winner can get the mandated margin from. A SE boycott will have zero impact on the legitimacy of the election results.
25% not 1/3

It will, by Constitution a president should get certain 25% in some states. So if election is boycotted and someone is declared a winner then it means it is an illegitimate government which is null and void and not binding on the people of the east

How many states doesn't Nyamiri Region have?

5 states.....5 minus 36 equal 31...

So, you are just a dot in the circle....inconsequential to be precise...
