It's really painful
I heard her saying this is the most expensive election yet inec failed woefully, they have just one job just one. I can't believe they planned this ffrom 4 years ago only to drop this nonsense

Yeah, it's annoying. Unfortunately NBC will fine arise for her choice of words(even though what she said is true).

She said any observer that is saying INEC did well this election is a "Yahoo-Yahoo observer; that we all saw all the irregularities that Mar the election's in different parts of the country yet some people will say the election is still is still better than previous years. She mentioned the amount of money INEC got from FG and even international organizations only to serve us this kind election.

Obi's problem is he doesn't blow his trumpet enough. If you read that man's bio and accomplishments you would be wowed

He's a businessman not a career politician. Think about it. How many SE governors have left office and didn't bother going for Senator any other post? Showed no interest in picking a successor or meddling in state politics.

He's the type of guy Nigerians need at center. It seems though that a lot of people are happy with how dysfunctional Nigeria is and are fighting day and night for things to remain that way.

The handwriting is clearly visible on the wall. From the ad-hoc staff sabotaging the electoral process, Thugs intimidating voters/preventing eligible voters from exercising their civil rights, thugs snatching boxes, police officers/security operatives looking away, the common man laughing off the unfortunate incidents, etc.... it's obvious the Nigerians are their own problems and not any yeye leader.

This lady speaking on AriseTv is actually funny sha

I hope NBC don't fine AriseTv after this programme 🤣. Her choice of words is definitely against the NBC code. She's too emotional, tho I understand her pain sha

Peter Obi's LP just made this guy a mumber of the house of Reps.

Na why I say, if these youths with these kind of enthusiasm fails.. then I'll make it my topmost priority to move out of this hell hole before December

Some of these corps members didn't think it through before taking these stupidd decisions of sabotaging the elections.

INEC doesn't even have any health or life insurance for them as ad-hoc staff that will either take care of their medical bills, compensate their families if they lose their lives or pay them damages if they become temporarily/permanently disabled from this electoral duty.

Even the politicians they are rigging for will not even bother about them immediately they win the elections. I just hope people exercise restraints and not beat any corper to death ; they should rather have the authorities arrest them.

CrystalTiger:
On God, I think he's made more posts about Obi than his own presidential candidate..

The fact that there's a video he made in 2019 with Peter Obi in which he eulogised him(Peter Obi) for being a private sector person, without any blemish to name/reputation, how he did well as Anambra state etc.... Is actually hilarious. Now he's using all those things to attack him 🤣

I will like to see his final position when the final results arr realised. And how his other team mates like Dino who are already threatening post election violence will address his continued Tinubu e-asslicking 😄

Reno is seriously butt-hurt that Obi did Atiku dirty by choosing to run on the mandate of the youth

I understand his pain tho. Obi just dashed his hope of being relevant again had Atiku won with Obi not being in the way.

I know you are a good man sir.

. You said ""You know they won't still be better off even with their candidate coasting to victory " That's not a good wish sir.

God will help us all. Amen.

It's like u are missing the point in all of this.

I'm okay with my friends voting APC, PDP or any other party I don't fancy. But I will never be okay with such people posting on their whatsapp status laughing at the fact that voters were harrased, intimidated and disenfranchised. I will not be an enabler of such persons.

If it's all game to them, then so be it. Two can play the game. I know whatever God they serve that makes it okay for them to laugh such sad incidents off will also provide for them when they need him.

Shikena!

monerozi5590:
My man don't allow politics or whatever to spoil your good deeds or relationship with people just because your opinion don't align with theirs.

Life is unpredictable at times. How do you know that if they had voted for your candidate life will be better for them?

How do you know that if they vote for their candidate life won't be better for them?

Like someone said here, no president will put food on your table directly.. The real work is yourself.

Good deeds indeed. You think I do anything because it's a good deed or aligns with some religious beliefs?

Just dey play.

I'm equally affected by bad leadership in the last 8 years. Whatever I do for anybody is out of compassion/pity and nothing more.

Going forward I will be pleading the fifth on such requests. God go help all of us

AdisaOwala:
Haba

Na fight already?

Fight keh, me wey I dey my house dey drink wetin I like dey chop cowleg on top am and dey follow the election results with a "relaxed mind"

I no get the energy to fight at all.

GloriousGbola:
vindictive man

raumdeuter:
Even if na fuel Gbola wan give you?

All the problem wey Buhari create no be my problem at all. Fuel scarcity, new naira notes etc. I dey find my way around all of them.

I will pass 🤷‍♂️

GloriousGbola:
i sent you a DM

I no dey reply nairaland DM

ShaqFu:
bros I hope say you go still give dem money when dem come beg you again oh, we must not be vindictive. 🤪😜

Lolz. It's not about being vindictive. Normally I dey give dem because I think the government failed them and they are victim of the circumstance they found themselves.

Now I know they like their oppressors ; I will recuse myself from being too concerned about their plight. I will just tell them tales of how things hard for all of us and na grace of God we dey use survive. Shikena!

A40:
Anyone who knows Peter Obi should not be surprised by this. He's not a career politician like some Mob boss we know

I actually didn't know much about Peter Obi prior to the last 9 months. I took my time did a personal research away from the campaign of calumny against his person by opposition parties, checked and verified his records like he's always advised and I confirmed the man is actually different from the looters in powers we have parading themselves as political bigwigs in the elections.

I'm impressed he's been consistent steadily about who he is and what he wants for the people.

DissTroy:
When it all ends, we'd still have naira notes scarcity, fuel subsidy, insecurity, corruption, and inflation to battle with. We will all bear the brunt without exception.

That's is my odd consolation. Celebrate evil if you will, but don't complain when it gets to you like the New Convert Wailers on this thread all month after installing Buhari twice.

I'm not perturbed. Knowing my loved ones and Itook the right moral and logical stand when the country is at its tipping point is comforting to my conscience. Whatever happens after that isn't on me.

I'm not even disturbed one bit. I see whatsapp status of people wey still beg me money for their basic needs as at last week gas lighting and celebrating the violence/intimidation in Lagos yesterday. I just dey smile.

I smiled cos I know they won't still be better off even with their candidate coasting to victory. The fact that they won't be getting paid for what they are doing is funny.

DissTroy:
Even more interesting in these elections is that unknown candidates who jumped on the Peter Obi wagon would end up being House of Representatives members and Senators on the Labour Party playform.

Some LP HoR and Senate candidates are sweeping results and people don't even know theirvnames.

The Peter Obi effect might is just as powerful in the SS and SE ad Buhari's in the North West in 2015.

I was really impressed by Peter Obi when he was interviewed by AriseTv yesterday at his polling unit. He was asked if he would take any position in government if he doesn't end up being the president and he said he won't. He's contended with what he has already, he only wants to be president to serve the people and change things from the way they are in the country.

Like he's contented with going back to his business than serve under a government that will maintain the status quo. He's been consistent with his stand that he just wants to serve the people. Politics is not do or die.

Those that want to celebrate electoral violence and voters intimidation all in the name of "I told you so" should continue

Nostradamus1:
It can only be cancelled in areas where there was violence including carting away of ballot boxes. For the areas where there was bullying but all party agents and INEC PO signed, no cancellation. The news story didn't do justice to his interview

Water is wet

Now this is what I'm talking about.Cancel the votes and let the useless governors like Wike and Bello know they've done all the nonsense they've done in vain.

https://www.nairaland.com/7586476/inec-threatens-cancel-kogi-presidential

Itsrm:
What difference will it make? Has the court ever removed a sitting president?

The difference it makes is justice. If the supreme court cancels those overcooked votes from Rivers state, that is justice served. The people will be satisfied such travesty of justice doesn't stand.

I'm okay with whoever wins the election if the results of overcooking from Rivers and some parts in Kogi are cancelled. I believe most reasonable people too would be. I don't want to see this nation burn whether I'm still resident here or I've relocated elsewhere

StarchAndBanga:
No let itsrm see this tin u type so oo..

Him sef know say Wike no get anything to make him rule this country. He doesn't have the emotional intelligence ; he would even be worse than Buhari when it comes to making divisionists' utterances as a president. His own abuse of the federal character principle will even be worse than Buhari. His diplomacy is zero! It won't even take 4 years for the country to scatter under Wike with how reckless he is.

DissTroy:
You want videos of what us happening in Rivers State? INEC officials being held at gunpoints. Videos and pictures.

Rivers and some parts of Cross Rivers in the South South. Oshiomhole irained havoc on Edo North too.

Baba that's not what I'm saying. What I'm saying is people are alleging INEC main staff and their ad-hoc staff are changing results by uploading something different from.what was announced in the polling unit. There's a portal where the results are being uploaded, let those who have access to the physical resukt sheet at the polling units compare it with what was uploaded by INEC on the portal. That way we will have a solid case for alleging rigging.

Anybody who saw the carnage that happened after Buhari's infamous speech after 2011 elections will not want to see such a opening again cos of allegations of rigging


As for Wicked Wike and his goons I believe both PDP and LP will definitely call for the courts to cancel the results from most parts of the state irrespective of who wins eventually. He will have his day in court definiteky. Wike is unfit to even rule a Local Government with the way he acts like he's all law to himself. To think he even nursed the idea of ruling a country like Nigeria is appalling. 🤮

Personally I believe talks about rigging are premature thus far. Yes from all indications this is not a free and fair election because we've had cases of intimidation of voters, beating up of voters in opposition stronghold and political thugs snatching ballot boxes in opposition strongholds. All of these aforementioned can be attribited to the failures of INEC the elecion umpire and security agents.

However, to actually confirm incidents of rigging results, we would need those who were privileged to have access to physical results sheets at their polling units to confirm the results uploaded on INEC portal differs from that which was announced at the polling u it after counting. Without this, there might not be really any strong case to claim the results were rigged.

Last night I watched channels TV and one of the annalyst/tech person brought on confirmed the election results weren't being uploaded as expected which obviously confirms INEC must be having serious issues which they need to talk to the general public about in order to calm nerves down. At least whether it's a case of server overload, an attempted hack on their facilities or that they are trying to put things in order hence why the presiding officers are finding it hard to upload.

I expect the INEC chairman to address this in the afternoon when they convene in order to calm people down. For now let's tone down on the rigging allegations until there's actually proof of such recklessness on the part of INEC and their staff.

[color=royalblue]Not Sanwo-Olu per se.

Some of these State HOR may need to recheck their structures oh.
[/color]

Na dem go cook pass sef. U know say na just half of their LGA be their constituency (I.e 2 members represent ons LGA in the LAHA).

They will cook either by following the book or by crook means. Na Local election. In fact the possibility of violence will dissuade some voters from participating

izzou:
[color=royalblue]March 11 go bloody pass this one.

With today's result, some people will have to revisit whatever they call structures
[/color]

Sanwoolu will win Lagos without much stress. Most people won't turn up for the governorship election like they did for this one. PDP and LP also don't have strong candidates in Lagos jare. Perhaps if Gbadebo and Jandor had been on PDP ticket as a team they could've pulled some weight small

[quote author=liveLongNprospa post=121239751]The man that has been screaming jungle.. Hmmm e rugged
