It's not about Atiku or Obi. It about the whole electoral system which promotes getting INEC to announce a winner by hook or crook, and then asking other candidates to go to court. Once the announce winner is sworn in and has his/her hands on the levers of power, they use that power to manipulate the system.
Atiku has been challenging the presidential elections since 2007, so you cannot claim to understand the system more than he does.

INEC Job is to hold Credible Elections and Produce a Winner

Any delay in doing it could create big Crisis. Like during Abiola time
When some people persuaded Babangida to Cancel the Election

Any problem after INEC announces a Winner that let the Supreme court sort out

I am not sure you can read and understand.
Was it Tinubu that was claiming born to rule attitude or your Obi and his nonsense movement that cannot move a mountain rather than noise making.

Why has Obi not accepted defeat and congratulate the winner but could continue wailing around looking for people to sympathize with him.

But why na 78 years old former vice president come win? Dat one fit be "from top to bottom" oh!

Is INEC the only electoral body in the world? How come others countries including those much poorer and less politically stable than Nigeria are able to have credible elections, conclude all litigations and reruns before the winners are sworn in.

In Nigeria, INEC is not interested in holding credible elections. The are only interested in announcing winners and then asking other candidates to go court to prove they won the election. Meanwhile, inec is the one with all the evidence of the elections.

Liberians are like "since a 53yr old cannot bring about the desired change, why not try a 78yr old.
The younger generation should rise up and be the agent of change themselves

Difrent:


Why are you speaking from both sides of your mouth. In one breath you said it can never happen in Nigeria and yet praised GEJ for the same thing you said can never happen in Nigeria

he might be an obedience that thought obi would win president with a small LP.. over big parties like PDP APC.. they forget Nigeria uses simple majority which is why tinubu APC won with just 38 Percent of votes... Liberia use absolute majority that's why despite weah winning the ist ballot he couldn't be declared president elect.. if we use absolute majority obi LP would have drop for just tinubu APC Atiku PDP to slug it out...

It appears Liberia doesn’t have their own version of INEC. Relinquishing power after an election, isn’t popular in Africa. Nevertheless, Weah has done a Noble thing.

BigBlackPreek:
Unlike Nigeria where some leaders will want to die on seat and let their relatives succeed them🤣,George Weah just transcend his sportsmanship side to politics! Kudos to him 🙌

If he had done well ... he would have been voted in again

Between the one who didn't buy votes or use any form of electoral malpractice and the one that use every possible illegal means to get position, who has born-to-rule mentality?

In Nigeria, are elections based on "doing well"? How do you measure "doing well"? How many governors or presidents in Nigeria were elected or reelected based on "doing well"?

Because a Nigerian is not on the helm of Liberia's electoral commission unlike in the past ...

One day Nigeria will be a laughing stock among fellow black African countries

Losers are fond of speaking ill of their country because their Agulu fraudster lost, according to their deluded logic, it's not credible once it is not going their way.

So if you're in his son shoe, you will chose to play for Liberia?

Why not? The father didn't have to play for USA to win Ballon D'Or. He achieved that playing for Liberia and top European sides. For someone like you, patriotism means nothing. That's why you can ask such a question in the first place.

Good for himself, how do he expect his people to vote for him again when they see your blood son representing another country in the game of football.

Very unpatriotic leader.

But that's not his fault. Though you have a point psychologically.

Liberia one tenure na 6yrs. Why seek for a second term?

This can never happen in Nigeria, but thanks to the former president Goodluck Jonathan that made it happen, the current political atmosphere in Nigeria can never see this happen, but I know someday we would get there.

You claimed it can’t happen in Nigeria then later went on to say thanks to the former president Jonathan for making it happen, is everything okay at home?

When you don't have sorry sore losers like the Agulu packaged fraud who can't accept defeat like this man. The religious fanatical pathological liar would rather start a war like Ojukwu instead of accepting defeat.

PlayMaker14:
This is foolish thinking Or should I say, extreme Poverty mentality.

What has his son hustling for himself got to do with the re-election of his father?

Do you think upside down?


I am glad Weah lost though

Your kind of unpatriotic mindset is why Africa keeps grinding backwards. You are a prime contributor to the collapse of this continent. So many anomalies happen here as normal because people like you applaud them.

A president's son opts to play for another country's national sports team, and you see nothing awkward about it? Europe, America and Asia do well not because they possess superior intelligence, but because they are nationalistic...nation-building orientation.

Pandora pathological liar Obi, the religious fanatical fraudster from Agulu would rather scatter the country than accept that he came in 3rd.
Gbajue and Atiku should learn to accept defeat just like this man just did instead of trying to tear down the country simply because they lost an election.

Long after Biafra has exited the Lugardian cage! It can happen in Liberia because a country called Liberia has matured to become a nation called Liberia........After a brutal civil war,the people came together and handed power to The PEOPLE! Nigeria cannot be called a country talk less of being called a state! Trying to cobble a nation together from the ethnic nationalities forced into the Lugardian cage is like trying to make a nation by joining Iran,saudi arabia,Lebanon,Rome and USA into one nation.....ee no go work! It has never worked anywhere and it will never work in Nigeria! Y'all wasting your time!!

Kay25:
George weah really bleeped up people entrusted him with power after so much of him crying around he wants to be president yet go there and fail them doing charity cup around... that's why i can never believe obi to do well when they want power they will act like saints but let them get there.isssh

when you see an apc supporter that voted for buhari twice and then voted for tinubu calling the government of another nation failure, you just shake your head.

The dunce is even talking about obi that has not been the president for even a minute but he would not mention the monumental failure in aso rock currently which he voted for in the last election.

Ikaeniyan0:

I am a patriotic citizen to the core, so I will chose to play for my father's land. Besides, I don't blame the son, I blame his parents who sees nothing good in the country that made him president. A leader must live by example, your son, daughter and wife are part of you as leader. People votes for only you but your wife, children and other close relatives will equally be treated as first class citizens.

Weah is not the kind of leader any functional society should adopt, he is so stupid to the extent that he even went to watch his son playing for another country with his full support, while his country national team still needs alot of talented players to even qualify for AfCON.

Infact, this should be treated as treason.
