Quidquopro:
Exactly!
The proper thing should be that a fresh election be conducted for the 2 leading candidates.

Sodiq3:
But none of them won 20 local government areas out of 30. This means we will have rerun election now

olawalepopoola:
And they were the one to first cry foul in Ekiti. Kettle calling pot black

Eponyeeboz:
Tunde Ayeni finally killed Skye Bank.

parpylo:
Acquisition of mainstreet bank was there undoing !!

texazzpete:
Lamentations.

I still have no clue why PDP brought such an uninspired candidate for the elections.

OlujobaSamuel:

See His Face.. Am I The Only One Who Thinks This Man Is Looking More Lifeless Than Buhari?

seunmsg:
I am not whining but expressing my views on the subject of discussion. Yes, the appointment is not strange but it calls for concern. We need to trust ourselves more than we currently do.

seunmsg:
One day, our country will get to that state where a president can appoint someone not from his tribe and religion as head of DSS and go to sleep comfortably.

Obasanjo, Yar'adua, Jonathan and now Buhari all wasted no time by quickly removing the head of the intelligence agency and replacing them with someone from their region. We must find a way to end the natural mutual suspicion that exist among us if we are to evolve into nationhood.

The obvious. What Johnathan didn't have balls to do. A non northerner wouldn't be allowed to run the SsS into the 2019 elections. Not surprising. I fear for 2019 though.

Shehunoshewhat:
Buhari is just one stubborn go@tt!

He just doesn't care. Typical Fulani man.

Too bad!!

Dandsome:
Lol. Buhari is shameless

How I wish some of you commenting above can understand the letter

Please read again and this time slowly,

Clause 19 of the 20th February transmission States:

“Section 49 of the Principal Act is amended by substituting for subsections (1) and (2), new subsections “(1)” and “(2)” –

“(1) A person intending to vote in an election shall present himself with his voter’s card to the presiding officer for accreditation at the polling unit in the constituency in which his name is registered.

(2) The Presiding Officer shall use a Smart Card Reader or any other technological device that may be prescribed by the Commission, for the accreditation of Voters, to verify, confirm or authenticate the particulars of the voter in the manner prescribed by the Commission.”

Clause 17 of the 27th June transmission adds Paragraph 3 to the above which reads

"(3) where a smart card reader deployed for accreditation of voters fails to function in any unit and a fresh card reader is not deployed, the election in that unit shall be cancelled and another election shall be scheduled within 24 hours.”

Finally, it is the withholding of Assent by Mr. President to the latest transmission of August 3, 2018, which excluded the card reader provision that has now preserved the card reader and given opportunity and vent to the National Assembly to admit the card reader provision, when reconsidering the Bill, in her absolute legislative discretion.

Where is August transmission?
The Senate and House sent a bill to you in February and June and included Smart Card Reader and curiously in the August amendment, the card reader was allegedly omitted and you failed to tell us how the new section was drafted and you want us to believe that the reason you declined assenting it was because of card reader, somebody should explain please.

comos:
I can read there that the presiding officers should use smart card reader or any other technology for card identifications.

the FG dose not want to sign this bill hence coming out with all these excuses.

they are simply looking for ways to use the incident form by which they can massively rig the election.

Nigerians must rise up and pressurize the president to sign this bill into law such that we have a smooth and transparent election.

You are a fraud. You copied verbatim from Thisday Newspapers and changed the headline while affixing your blog as the source. Mods should be careful, the way plagiarism is given a freeway here.

A combination of outright lies and half truths that only the gullible will fall for
