This one wey Atiku dey seat very comfortable for eagle square

My inner source just yarn me say - HE BE like say them go pull rug under GEJ - that their is strong possibility he is not going to win -


please bear in mind  - that Nija politics na dangerous game. it is never straight forward.  

33 billion of Oil reserve at stake for the winner.

My people dont click - na spam

Dame and GEJ enter Eagle square after all the back office mago mago  - shakes atiku's and tell him he will sort him out ministerial job like petroleum minister.

Obj don enter Eagle square. THe real presido don enter

Indicatns frm sum sources dat a significant no of deals hav bn struck tiltin things in d directn of GEJ.


As i mentioned earlier only a miracle can stop GEJ from winning - GEj has deployed all every single power of the incumbent - even our foreign reserve.

Yo blacksta, where r u getting all these Info from?

At the moment  I  am sitting between GEJ and Atiku for Eagles square  -Abuja  ( to prevent them coming to blows)


on a Serious note

from Twitter  - search for #pdpprimaries

entry polls suggest a landslide for GEJ read exit polls. That remains to be seen. Off for a breathe

baring last minute miracle  - na the only way atiku go win.


In Uk or US  - u get exit polls  but for Nigeria no such thing  - Atiku fit double the dollars and everything fit change last minute.

Na wa what happened to consensus candidate - All these northern states say they will vote for GEJ

Nasarawa state tell me their vote is a secret

Jigawa state say they will vote Goodluck

Delegates that have been accredited are making their way to Eagle Square at the moment!

ballot boxes arrive at Eagle square

Delegates are presently at State Liasons before being transported to Wadata

Despite d restraining order by d High Court in Enugu,the PDP National Chairman Dr.E Nwodo says he is stil in charge.

Ebele offering $7k, Atiku offering $5k, so that's $12k for any sharp delegate

Party primaries in Nigeria are typically cash-and-carry affairs; the only rule is that there are no rules, delegates ‘eat' from all camps, and keep their options open till the last minute. This can make it a most frustrating exercise for candidates, requiring an endless supply of cash, often denominated in dollars.
There is no evidence that today will be different, whether in how the battle will be fought (with cash), or in the outcome (victory to the ‘incumbent'). No incumbent Nigerian President has ever lost a re-election bid. In a political system in which the President is seen as "leader" of the party, it is hard to imagine how a challenger would succeed staging an upset, and dislodging the person from whom all patronage - contracts and appointments - flows. Already a number of party leaders have insisted that there is "no vacancy" in Aso Rock.

The only presidential aspirant so far present at the Eagles Square is Sarah Jibril

a delegate said, our state gov'nor has instructed us on who to vote for, I'm going to do my own thing & I'm not alone

Apparently there's disagreement over whether ballots should be labeled by state between both Camps

2 major camps are denying inducing delegates with cash, so the delegates are the winners

A text from a delegate: "things are happening behind the scenes! We may be late sha" No wonder

Heavy Security and traffic around Eagle  -- hawkers and bombers have been told to stay fck away - so oti gbo.


These people mean business  - about 6 layers of security checks to get into Eagle square.

if only they would protect the common man like this Nija will be a safer place.

Empty square

Police helicopter over the eagle square

The shackles of Tinubu over ACN must be broken the last thing Nigerians want is another  re incarnated PDP in ACN.   A Party that does not primaries but rather imposes candidates on it citizens sounds like a remake of PDP.

GEJ - all the way for the PDP ticket but will loose election.

Beaf:
Bye bye Sahara Reporters!!!
Their days of news and document forgery are over.

Wow did not know Nija jurisdiction extended outside of the country.

Lets wait and see where this one ends. hopefully not at the bottom of the soak away where list of other cases have ended for example halliburton, Siemens, Warri , Jos and Abuja bombings.

jensinmi:
@Blacksta - Big Boss.

I wan make small correction
7million times 100 is 700 million.
7 million times 1,000 is 7 billion.
7 million times 5,000 delegates is 35 billion.
and if it is 3,000 delegates, it is 21 billion.


I doubt that Atiku has this kind of money to throw around though. It might just be propaganda.

Ok sorry - na my math teacher cause am
