If you generously dash Peter Obi all of Tinubu's Rivers vote 200k Tinubu still leads Atiku with over 1.6m votes

Dash Peter Obi all of Tinubu's 572k Lagos vote plus 200k Rivers vote and let's assume Tinubu had zero votes in Rivers and Lagos.. Tinubu still leads with over 1m votes

Please just shut the fck up.
The discrepancies in Rivers’ State result is enough to nullify the total outcome of the elections, if duely proven in court( which of course is glaring). What Peter OBI is challenging in court is not just a matter of numbers but of pedigree and trust in a supposedly democratic process. He doesn’t have to prove INEC rigged in all the States. Proving so with just one State, invalidates the overall outcome.
Wonder how you guys stupidly support retrogression out of tribal and religious sentiments.

By then BAT with only 11states will be constitutionally unqualified to be president

I think the requirement is having 1/4(25%) of the total vote cast in 2/3(~25) of the 36 states including Abuja. And not the overall winner as you thought.

Tinubu had more than 25% in 27 states in which rivers is just one.

It's not just in Rivers state alone, Peter Obi's actual votes were massively suppressed in Lagos. The margin was so wide that Tinubu, Sanwo-olu, MC Oluomo and the rest of Lagos APC stakeholders got mad and went on rampage to prepare for the Governorship election to avoid losing Lagos completely.



Sanwo-olu after seeing the actual huge margin Obi used to win Lagos became humble overnight that he started doing all sorts of things to convince Lagosians that he was different from Tinubu while MC Oluomo charged his agberos to take the laws by their hands and do whatever it takes to win Lagos for Sanwo-olu to avoid extinction of their decadelong Agberoism extortion in Lagos.




Based on our inhouse collation, Peter Obi won the below states with very wide margin that will push his total votes to over 9million votes:


Lagos
Rivers
Plateau
Bayelsa
Akwa Ibom
Cross River
Benue



Obi got over and around 25% in:


Adamawa yes Adamawa
Borno
Kaduna
Sokoto
Bauchi
Taraba
Nasarawa
Ekiti
Ogun
Ondo
Kogi


Obi won the below states with no or insignificant vote suppression:


Anambra
Abia
Ebonyi
Imo
Enugu
Delta
Edo
Abuja

I live in Imo state, there was a great suppression of votes in Imo state. Only the governor and his gang would have voted APC here.

3 months after the election, it is only Rivers state result that is inconsistent with what was declared. Enough has been said about Rivers state already. Why not give us evidence of result manipulation in other states if there are any? Why only Rivers state?

Rivers state result will be invalidated or recalculated and it still won’t change anything. Tinubu will still be first, Atiku second and Obi third. So, why all the noise? Whatever Wike did in Rivers ended in Rivers. It is not enough to substantially affect the overall outcome of the presidential election.

I used to consider you a reasonable person

Overall,the yorubas voted tinubu.obi won the Christian dominated areas of north central while losing the Muslim areas massively.in the ss,obi won but tinubu and atiku got good votes.so how would obi have won?
You are not getting me. I am not saying Obi won or would have won. What I am saying is that the elections lacked credibility and its cannot be used as a gauge for who won or could have won. I believe might have won but not outrightly. He have struggled to make 25% in any of the South South and South East states while Obi would have struggled to make 25% in the core northern states and rural yoruba states.

Are you saying if the election was collated correctly Uzodimma would have won? That is very untrue, the most popular candidates were Uche nwosu and Ihedioha. There is no way Uzodimma would have won but the foolishness of the whole quagmire rested on the counsels of Ihedioha who fails to file counter affidavit to x-ray and quash the "unsubstantiated results" that Uzodimma was parading giving rise to the technicality decision.

Exactly.if inec correctly counted or collated results,uzodinma would not have won.ihedioha too might not have won because he massively inflated votes in mbaise.perhaps ugwumba would have won...hope simply took advantage of the weakness in the electoral process.it is not the fault of the court.the judgment was the right one

That's how it happened across board. If Tinubu had won this election free, fair and transparent, Nigerians would understand and fully support him but this sharm and trying to defend it makes me understand that it takes a lot to have a country even when you are close.

It was so clear that Peter Obi won Rivers election but the INEC decided to give it to Tinubu.
I stop to pity Nigerians when clearly they are the tools used to rig elections.
where is the money they were given?
where is the cap and T-shirt they collected during rallies?
Nigeria's democracy is long gone.

It was even clear that most Nigerians are not happy with emergence of Tinubu as president yet some youths are always busy defending them.



BBC just downplayed a whole presidential election to Rivers Governorship election, more like Tinubu and Obi were the only contestant, did the sponspors forget to tell BBC Rivers is originally PDP stronghold, therefore all votes are not shared between APC and E LU PEE only, Peter obi being an ex pdp member is mostly to share vote with Atiku.

The Nig presidential election happened across 36states in Nigeria, but BBC decided to use Rivers to screen the election

The 2023 election unlike other year, had four solid contestant But BBC decided to make it personally by setting up 1st vs 3rd analysis

Why can't BBC give an overview and summary of the election across states on a template that reflect the major 4 candidates @least?

Since BBC agreed even there own outcome of Rivers result can't upturn the election then what is the essence of the publication

Obi swept 3 geopolitical zones namely, South East, South South and North Central. And he got favorable votes in the remaining three.

He even won Taraba in North East, Kaduna in North West except for the manipulations.

Let the investigation continue. It will shock you.

Obi did not sweep anything.the results were a fair reflection.before the polls,you could see that almost all se supported obi while many in ss were against him.he only won the xtian areas of nc.even if we give him nc and taraba,he still lose.investigation shows that he was only cheated in rivers

That's the problem with Nigerians and the Nigerians system, we tend to justify dishonesty and crime using meaningless terms and technicalities. What is substantial compliance and who determines substantial compliance. Yaradua was elected on ballot papers without serial numbers as specified in the electoral law, the supreme court ruled that there was substantial compliance. Now, an election was conducted with lots of evidence of fraud, voter intimidation, manipulation of figures and violence, you shout the same substantial compliance.
How do you expect a presidential candidate to prove substantial compliance? You want him to prove fraud, voter intimidation, manipulation of figures and violence in all 176,974 polling units in Nigeria?
You and I should demand credible elections. That alone will make us proud as a people, not the charade we have been having (and it's gets worse with each election cycle) since 1960. Bad elections alway bring bad consequences and set us backward. Remember, it was rigged elections in the South West was the excuse for the first military coup which led to the civil war. Similarly it was the rigged elections of the 1983 elections (remember Wetie almost repeated itself in Ondo with the Omoboriowo saga) that was the excuse for the 1983 coup that brought in General Buhari.

In as much as this is not to counter your submission. In all, court judgement should not supercede the will of the people. The electoral process should be made in such a way the court can only cancel and prosecute offenders but have no authority to "assign" winner no matter the claim. The court should only adjudicate on the fairness and credibility and if found the process doubtful only possess the right for outright cancellation and call for full or partial re-voting than awarding claimants votes and declare him winner against the choice of the populace. This is just my opinion.

Again if the Uzodimma case took advantage of weakness in electoral process it means PO or any of the candidates can also "take advantage" especially for PO who has a genuine claim of suppression of votes to ride on that precedence.
