chigo4u: PDP magic!!!!!!!! Everybody and Everyanimal in kebbi voted PDP! Is is that kebbi people are faithful voters for someone to have this figures. Even far more popolous states dont generate this kind of figures from only the pdp for their entire votes cast. PDP magic

PointB: People voted for the candidate of their choice. To expect PDP to lose election everywhere because of the poor records in SW is to expect too much. Other parties are mostly made up of recycled PDP members, so there is nothing new here.

Congratulation Mr. New Governor.
