It baffles me how OBJ, Jonathan,IBB et all....
Would now claim to be statesmen and motivational speakers . After bastardizing the nation with corruption. It seems they know Nigerians have very short memories.Very soon Buhari would join this class . Just Dey play!
Its not even about very soon.

Prior to the election results dropping, most of these Obi supporters started praising and rating Buhari for the naira scarcity because in their twisted mind they thought it will stop Tinubu from winning.
This was despite them suffering from the same naira scarcity even more.

Goodluck Jonathan is actually the reason why we went 20 years backward as a country.

This view is rubbish talk, evidence in court are base on what's on the ballot so it's better for the court to decide than the thief to Steal it.

Sir, looks like the Creator wanted to teach majority of Nigerians a lesson for making stupid choices based on sentiments and tribal bias in 2014.
PDP would have still held unto power against the cry of the majority, but you conceded and accepted defeat, when you still had the power and priviledge of incumbency to rig the elections and impose your ambitions on us all.., but you didn't.
2019 came, INEC in collaboration with 'Mr Integrity' rigged the election with several glaring inconsistencies. The economy of Nigeria tumbled and sank deep into the rubbles of miseries.
This is 2023 and APC didn't emulate your outstanding example in 2014; that your ambition isn't worth the blood of any Nigerian.
They have shown us that Tinubu's ambition is worth the blood of all Nigerians. Tinubu has made Nigerians see that the good things of the country belong first to his circle of loyalists and whatever is left is left over for the masses.

Well, INEC has become a criminal organisation so the court is the last hope of common man.

If the judiciary becomes a criminal arm of government, then we will quietly put up the country for sale on Amazon.

Nope if the Judiciary fails, the military is waiting to rise to the occasion..

The military gave us the constitution that we are killing to defend today, so why demonizing the military?
The military handed over to politicians who asked for democracy. Yet these 'quasi-democrats' cannot manage a simple election that other democratic countries organise without rancour and rigging. They claim to be democrats but threaten other Nigerians from freely voting their choice. They kill, they maim, they mutilate results and steal people's votes.

Nigeria's election swallows 300 billion Naira every four years, voting is done on a flimsy paper and fake results are manually mutilated and written in the bedroom of politicians after collation at the polling stations. Are the voters who stand in the rain and sunshine that worthless?

Political thugs are everywhere threatening and killing people who want to vote their choice. How is that different from the Liberian war where people's hands were cut off to prevent them from voting?

The Solution
In the event that judiciary becomes too cowardly to call a spade a spade and end rubber-stampping this open electoral heist that has negated every norms of democratic process, the military must must not hesitate to save the country from being thrown into anarchy by politicians who do not believe in the rights of others in a free democracy.

How will they do this? An interim government should take charge and fix the electoral system to ensure that minimal or zero human interference is allowed in our electoral system.

A 100% electronic voting system is what is needed now. Voters get accredited with their voter's card ONLY ONCE, and then vote in a paperless electronic manner, the votes are recorded and sent directly to the server and seen on the INEC IREV in REAL-TIME.
It has to be transparent, so that losers and winners will agree with the results.

Rigging of elections usually happens between when ballots are counted and when the votes are collated by INEC. That is usually when the results are mutilated or destroyed and the fake ones recorded..That should be stemmed in the tide by e-polling and e-collation and e-transmission of votes. A lot of money will be saved from printing worthless ballot papers that can be snatched anytime by political thugs trying to subvert the process.

Politicians who have vested interests cannot give us a perfect electoral system. When the debate for BVAS and IreV was brought up on the floor of the Senate last year, many sitting politicians afraid of loss of popularity back home, opposed the inclusion of clause 'INEC shall transmit electronically', this has given INEC and politicians the wherewithal to claim 'there is no network, we will transmit the votes when we get to the office', allowing the sustenance of an electoral system that is fraught with heavy irregularities.

Videos abound of INEC presiding officials who have been bribed by politicians telling the voters 'we will not upload until we get to the office', of course we know that once they get to their office (or the sitting rooms of politicians), the results are mutilated or changed outrightly. That's an insult to the Nigerian voters.

No politician will allow such reform to happen, not even Tinubu will let that happen. Only a dispassionate interim military government can institute an electoral reform that will be fair to all and hand it over to Nigerians.
We need to consider this a surgical procedure that will strengthen true democracy in the aftermath.

That's right, all those useless thugs are the problem of this democracy, they just don't want a free and fair election to take place but the judgement of God will surely fall upon them.

This was the first time I saw individuals dieing of chronic hunger, also we seeing more cases of suicide.

But in this incoming regime we might begin to witness hundreds of people jumping to their deaths in a collective suicide

As you and others are watching,as security agencies will do nothing serious about electoral fraudsters,after feeling terribly disappointed,what else?
Too much words and no action is what emboldened these electoral theives.
As a former president,the height of your disapproval of the evils before your/our eyes is to be hypocritically disappointed?
No official report or complaints to the sitting president,to Security Council of former Heads of State,no intention to present the cases to international community? No plans to expose the evils your eyes and ears have witnessed using your capacity as an internationally recognized personality?

Little wonder these theives have no regard for man masses nor God cos no one is confronting them.
