Oya show me how you got the statistics. What methods did you use to measure the data, let me catch you in your lie.

Nwane, do you know anything about statistics at all? My confidence level about my assertions are over 95%.

ottersberger:
Support Mr Obi, even if only half-heartedly, to win it. What have you got to lose that you haven't already lost with Tinubu?. Things can only get good once the incumbent and his goons are no longer able to steal everything that isn't bolted down. C'mon, try it if you're not a goon.

I am not a goon and would have considered Peter Obí but for the abusive and insulting behavior of his Obidients and his inability (or lack of willingness) to call them out.

Irony1:
Oga wait naaa what is the percentage of the total igbo population? Why dodging to answer the question?

I nor dodge yà kweshion.

I am not sure what the percentage of Obidients that are Ndigbo is but I know the percentage of Non-Ndigbo that are Obidients is less than 0.1%.

Dis na becos Igbo Obidients don use bad mout chase oda pipo comot.

Irony1:
What is their percentage of the total igbo population? Agaim Obidients are not just igbos so don't attempt to twist the narrative.

The Obidients that want to kpai us over Lagos are all Ndigbo, every single one of them.

showboy2301:
How will you feel if Peter Obi wins 2027 presidential election?

Happy?

Sad?

Indecisive?

I wouldn't feel any different to if Atiku or President Tinubu won it because all these cats are part of the same political class that have always put themselves and their needs ahead of those of the common man.

Irony1:
How did they kpai on top Lagos matter. How old are you?

Do a search for Lagos on Nairaland and see how Obidients want to kpai ontop Lagos màtá.

I haven't been born sef.

Zehdbe:
ipob are funny you want biafra and you dont like northerners and southwest but you care too much about what is going on there isnt these hypocrisy

They like Lagos though, dem fit kpai ontop Lagos màtá!

Putindbutt:
Everything this newspaper is reporting is based on conjectures!. Everything in the article is based on MAY! MAY!! MAY!!!, MIGHT! not FACTUAL!!!

Pls, let's not turn this forum to a dumb site of gossip talks and newsroom Fabrications. Especially when you have some readers who hardly think on their own and could swallow up any junks thrown down their throats.


Cc seun Dominique nlfpmod Mynd44

Thank you for saying this as I thought I was the only one that saw all the conjecture and zero facts.

The grammatical error at the start with using the word "Storms", right at the start of the article, also suggest Punch might need a new editor as well. What a shame.

Naijahero1:
Did you read the report of the society of engineers. If you do, you'll realize how foolish your response sounds.

Why do I need to read a report from anyone when, humility affording, there is no one on there that knows anything about the subject matter more than me?

You that you are so foolish that are letting your being an Obidient control what you read to justify your bias, you see your life now.

Prof Soludo 1 IPObidients 0.

Prof bikonu do kwik come do President.

Peter Obi could never have stood up to IPOB in a million years.

Naijahero1:
Akpabio and his cohorts are carrying a legislative coup against Nigerians and it's capable of destroying Nigeria like Nepal, and that's what we don't want. How can a normal person at this stage of our life spend N300 billion on election and can't transmit results mandatorily in real time? These corrupt idiots are weapons fashioned against Nigeria's progress.
Nigerians should learn to hold their leaders accountable so that they don't die off.

It's not about having network, it's about coping with network traffic at a point in time.

We can't afford Obidients having another public meltdown because of a glitch in the system along with another Peter Obi third place and rendering Nairaland unusable again.

Bobloco:
Saying cloud providers can’t guarantee 100% uptime is a red herring. No serious system, elections included, relies on a single point of failure. Electronic transmission doesn’t remove human processes; it duplicates and secures them. The irony is that the same people demanding human-in-the-middle trust are defending a system where the least accountable humans have the most discretion.

IREV didn’t fail because technology is inherently unreliable; it failed because technology was deliberately subordinated to opaque human control. And here’s the part everyone keeps skipping: did INEC ever clearly explain to Nigerians what caused the “glitch,” publish a technical incident report, or outline concrete mitigation steps? That’s the bare minimum any serious public institution owes the public after a system failure.

Every credible democracy uses layered systems: physical records, electronic transmission, public verification, and independent audits. Nigeria insisting on manual dominance in 2025 isn’t caution, it’s an admission that some people benefit from ambiguity.

So the question isn’t why deepen technology?
It is actually why is transparency the one thing that must wait until perfection?

And if asking for verifiable, time-stamped, publicly auditable results is now disturbing neutrals, then maybe neutrality is just comfort with a broken process, until it personally stops working for you.

The truth is that you are a Tinubu supporter, don't hide

Why do you think non 100% voting princesses like postal voting is still being used by western countries that have more advanced and reliable access to cloud providers and their sites than us?

We saw blurred pictures as well as a picture of someone bathing on IREV last time out, yet you want us to dive headlong into fully automated voting systems.

By all means, use automated process but make sure it is secondary for a long time before you swap it to be primary, anything else and you want Obidients to kpai us when their oga loses again.

I am not a Tinubu supporter, rest and focus on rg discussion at hand.

Streetinvestor2:
Stop speaking from two side of your mouth. Come out boldly and stand on SW president mandate

Why should I stand on a mandate I am not part if, rest oga

QuinQ:
Well, he/she has been on Nairaland with same moniker for a very long time. She deserves credit for that. She could have changed monikers and lose the reputation.
You may be an outlier but generally when one intimately experiences injustice and unfairness towards a member of a group (mothers) they tend to be sensitive to the maltreatment of that group.
Kobo keeps advocating leaving a marriage because he wished her mother had left

Nor mind am ó, kọbọ has changed monikers. She added an e so at some point so she was using double e at the end if her moniker. It was still the same BS format so full marks for consistency.

My worry is she gives nonsense advice under some kind of knowledgeable guise that could wreck people or their recoverable relationships.

Bobloco:
Until electronic transmission is made mandatory, Nigerians will continue to ask the question Tinubu supporters refuse to answer:

What exactly are they afraid of?

To clarify before I respond, I am not a "Tinubu supporter".

Ordinary glitch that Yakubu said happened to IREV, Obidients nearly killed us neutrals here.

Until cloud providers can guarantee 100% uptime, anything but an electronic back up repository of election results is the furthest we should go technologically.

The human in the middle factor must be present and must be part of the primary source of truth of any election.

We haven't perfected IREV, yet you want to put technology deeper into more sensitive parts of the process, who does that?

Obidients need to rest on this matter, there is no basis for this being allowed to happen now. You people are just looking for excuses to disturb the rest of us when you lose again.

QuinQ:
I hear ya but I can assure you that when someone witnesses true unfairness and maltreatment of their mother to the extent of hating the father, the result is usually sensitivity towards plight of women in general akin to feminism

Kọbọ cannot have seen worse than I have or disliked her father more.

Her argument is nothing to do with true feminism,
I have seen her argue on politics section as well, it is the same BS style my way or the highway.

She has a reputation on Nairaland for a reason.

QuinQ:
It is the weight of history - that it no longer happens like that does not change the fact that it was happening like that for a very long time. Someone like Kobojunkie witnessed his (now her) beloved mum maltreated by his dad so much so that he swore to beat his dad up when he got big (I got this from reading his old, old posts). That’s why she's a feminist today - regardless as to wether it still happens or not!

I myself had a dad that did the same to my mum, the way I have used to get over the bitterness and his lack of usefulness was to ensure I don't have such accusations levelled against me.

If anything, I have over compensated which has gotten me into trouble because some see things as a sign of weakness and take a yard when you give them an inch.

Kobo's problem is she is a bully, intolerant of other people's views and makes sweeping generalisations.

Our maternal parents were maltreated, didn't like it but hung around for the sake of the children. The ultimate sacrifice unlike the new generation who are ending relationships and marraige at the first sign of trouble, leaving children in a position of two homes and being slap bang in the middle of bitter parents.

They achieved a means to an end and the children will forever be grateful. Not ideal but we thank God things are getting better generally.

Sugarboyy:
My brother, I stay around GRA axis here in Benin. For good 8 years that Obaseki was governor, no single road was tarred in the whole gra. He left Benin and Edo in general in a mess. The only Amagba road around GRA that he tarred, even before he left the road became worse than it was.
Most of the roads and infrastructures Oshiomhole did during his tenure are still very solid

Una for GRA dey enjoy, erosion never clear una like dì tin dey do pipo for Ewah road.

QuinQ:
It's actually not a bad feminist song. See the lyrics below. The circled is the refrain.
Here's a short from it
https://youtube.com/shorts/YNijpeAuJn8?si=bfM2dTH7E8GvB7JM

Fair enough but only a few men never lift a finger nowadays. Men are realising the mistakes of their dad's who think parenting ends at paying school fees.

Also some women allow this scenario because the man is rich and funds their expensive lifestyle.

Quick story about a premiership footballer with wife and kids. His wife dropped the kids of at school and went shopping, came back home to hearing noises of the man sleeping with another woman in their bedroom.

Turns back round right away and goes back to the shops to do even more clothes, shoes etc shopping.

When the man eventually drops her, she too will sing this song no doubt even though she is culpable too in allowing herself to be treated in that way. I am not saying all women are though.

Emeskhalifa:
Like play like play, this woman will go Scot free.

See when it comes to court proceedings, it is not by what you assume you know, it is by solid, beyond doubt hard fact and evidences on ground

She won't, except on a technicality. For them to prosecute her means they have all the evidence.

By the way, this junk write up by op is a pathetic attempt to defend her. The op has collected their money so I don't blame the anyway.

PDP and their petroleum subsidy payments, as an example, brought Nigeria to its knees. All the payments that they took a cut out of and are living large on because they were the only national party.

Madueke will hopefully get a custodial sentence, like Ìbòrí did, and hopefully, APC will learn from it.

OneCandleAway:
The man is even supposed to retire by now. Buy the love of power, of being in control won't allow him. Especially as he can't handover to his child like oyedepo has said he'll do. Because the founder of redeemed didn't hand over to his child so adeboye cannot try it.

I can see why he daren't retire, and it's not necessarily the child thing in my opinion anyway.

The day he steps down, his franchise is gone as we know it, factions, law cases, exposè, the whole works will follow soon after.

In fact, there will be instances of physical assault too if not hired killers in the mix. Too many people are feeding fat barely raising a finger and they will fight back for changes to that setup.

So he might as well continue till death.

FSBoperator:
The bill did not ban electronic transmission but only did not make it a mandatory requirement for the obvious reason that there could be network issues.

Thank you for clarifying this as I thought I was going mad about what is happening.

Ordinary electronic voting, we still have issues, we now want to add electronic collation and transmission to the mix.

OneCandleAway:
Is it only your church that is in 150 countries. Afterall we've heard your church is like Mr biggs, I can decide to obtain the franchise once I agree to remit the percentage to head quarters.

And this is the truth and all you need to know about Redeemed, they have diluted Christianity, well their version of it, with the insatiable need to have franchises all over the place.

They have also elevated Adeboye to God like status, if you see the way they all jump about like frogs on heat whenever he deings to go to one of the franchises, you will dislike Christianity immediately.

Redeemed is simply a money making franchise business with Christianity as a facade. I won't lie, they are a slick operation.

QuinQ:
So what is this video about that you spent all day looking for it?

**modified**
Ok, I listened to it with lyrics and now I get it.
Some feminist crap

You sef try, Kobojunkie referenced a video and you went to watch and listen to it.

Sugarboyy:
And the same Obaseki he told us not to respect but some of you went against his advice also wanted to become a godfather by installing Asue. And Obaseki ended up as the worse governor Edo has ever produced. Right now in Edo state, it's like Okpebholo us starting from the ground

You know your Ẹdo politics and are very right about the hypocrisy of Godwin.

The only governor that ran away without officially handing over to his predecessor.

The only one that dare not come home and would rather be doing meet and greet in small restaurants abroad.

Godwin Oghiọnba, the worst governor ever in the history of Edo state. Shamelessly hiding under tribal politics till today going round claiming prosecution because he is Benin, the same Benin that Akpakomezer has done more in a year than he did in 8 years.

Imagine if this has happened in Nigeria, one of the Presidential candidates from 2023 would have said "you get stabbed in this Nigeria and you die, this country is finished".

I nor mention anybodi name ó bifor una carry una wàhálà come.

By the way, apropos of nothing, my teachers used to compliment me on how Obidient I was at school.

Newsgeek24:
https://verynigerian.com/a-very-respected-woman-trump-recognises-remi-tinubu-at-us-national-prayer-breakfast-video/

Hopefully see a video soon of Ọga Trump recognising Peter Obi.

Even though being recognised by the dolt Trump isn't something to boast of.

Man, if I was good at AI, I would have doctored the video to change it to Trump recognising Peter Obí (oh look I have mentioned him again) and watch as Obidients self flagellate on seeing the video.

Linzo:
I have reviewed the current situation in Nigeria carefully, and it is clear that almost 98% of the senators currently in office would lose their seats in 2027 if elections were to be truly free, fair, and results mandatorily transmitted in real time.

The only senator I know who could realistically survive such an election is Senator Abaribe.

Even in my own senatorial district, Delta North, Ned would not survive a credible contest against any serious Kwale candidate such as Tilije, Osanebi, or my brother and comrade, Ozegbe.

Name any senator you believe could survive 2027 under a genuinely free and fair electoral process.

Oshiomole will win easily.

jericco1:
Just imagine only one person so much controversies

And it had been covered up.

He was previously tried in Florida and effectively giving a small slap on the wrist.

Can you imagine what other things are happening and covered up.

donleo92:
I don't like Indians at all....

When them catch Africans you go see how 20 police officers go just they smile like say them win lottery.

But when they catch Americans or European, you go see special treatment way them go they give those criminals.

That be said, say no to crime

Maybe Africans should stop committing crime there then, that would surely stop them smiling when they are caught.

Focus on the cause, not the effect.

TotoIsGud4boy:
Happy birthday feminist… now that you’re 46, no husband, no male figure in your child’s life I hope you’re happy? Your son is probably going to be home schooled cos the pain you are avoiding from him going to a school with other kids while they show him his mom’s tape is a very bitter pill to swallow… You’ve won awards, you’ve made money, but at 46 are you really happy? You traded your peace for the stage, you traded a home for clout, now age is catching up with you dear tiwa….. we love your music but we won’t let you corrupt the new generation of women with your toxic feminist agenda, women need a man, kids need a father figure. Happy birthday tiwa… I wish you a long prosperous life where you can regret every decisions you made.

I suspect you are projecting the misery of your own life on her, you need to stop.

Arda1000:
The good people of Kwarra and Benue should keep standing on the mandate

Every single tribe will see this, knowing it is from a Obidient, and know not to vote a Peter Obí ever.

Even the ones not mentioned as they know you feel the same way about them

After when Peter Obi loses, you will wonder why.

Show your disdain and hatred of others after elections, not when you still need their votes.

Oh dear.
