Early perfected rigging.

Who and who is suspecting APC?

APC government hold a free and fair election? Na wa oooo, it's highly impossible na. They have been empowered to rig by all means possible because they have tribunal backings. Sorry for the masses whose voting rights will always been denied

Who and who is suspecting APC?

Peace Accord in the mud.

Riggers at work

If you have an opportunity to Japa, please do so. Nigeria is finished

They might have done this intentionally. Also, a boat carrying election personnel to registration area 17 in Koluama Community, Southern Ijaw LGA capsized and election materials. including result sheets, got lost.

I won't put this beyond those riverine communities. I mean, apart from deliberate sabotage by opposition against a rival's strong base.

Even you as an INEC official will have to succumb to the wishes of the people on the island.

Is it not too early for this?

There is nothing like free and fair election for this obodo Nigeria.
