MimiBiggs: JUST IN: INEC shifts governorship, state assembly elections to March 18
The Independent National Electoral Commission has postponed the governorship and state assembly elections till March 18.
The exercise was previously scheduled to hold on March 11, but INEC, citing a logistics crisis stemming from BVAS configuration and transportation, said the election could not hold again as scheduled following a meeting of its executives on Wednesday evening.
“The elections were postponed to allow one more week for preparations,” an official familiar with the meeting told Peoples Gazette by telephone on Wednesday night. “We should be able to get everything in order before March 18.”
The meeting was still underway at INEC headquarters in Abuja as of the time of filing this report.
The commission had convinced the Abuja Division of the Court of Appeal to vary its order granting Peter Obi of the Labour Party and PDP’s Atiku Abubakar permission to inspect the election materials on the premise that it had to reconfigure the Bimodal Voters Accreditation System (BVAS) for the conduction of the polls this Saturday.
Massiveglory: There is still another man standing to take his mandate. Mark this. The stolen mandate will be restored to the rightful winner. Tinubu will not be president. But the embezelled funds he has acquired over the years will play a huge part in the new Nigeria OBIDENT government.
Djoel: With all respect to our various political interests and diversities, let us view these points with open minds.
1. Nigerians from across regions and religions have gotten tired of the worsening state of the nation and prayed earnestly to God for deliverance from the current crop of Nigeria politicians and political system. If this election doesn't produce the turnaround, people across religions will loose hope that there is any God and Nigeria is in big trouble as we are badly divided, our economy is in a sorry state...the woes are just too many
2. Peter Obi emerged less than 1 year ago. He did not only build on an unpopular party widely called structure-less and with few supporters widely denigrated as 4 people twitting in a room. Never in the history of Nigeria has even the best of alliances of major parties, even merger of CPC and ACN, ever created such a powerful 3rd Force movement from nothing. Today Labor Party with it's sold-out followers of PO called Obidients has became the party to beat. This is not the work of a mere man.
3. I have keenly studied Peter Obi and came to a conclusion that the good qualities he exhibits are way beyond the capability or will of a man who just wants to do good. This man is being helped by God in answer to the prayers of Nigerians. - Talk about his energy, he campaigned like a super human, maintained his coherence, health and kept to incredible schedules as he zig-zagged across the Nation. He dispised the security advice against going to Borno State and was prepared to die there than not reach out to everything Nigerian across the 36 States.
- He doesn't seem to make mistakes. His character, how he has managed to shape the opinions of we very stubborn and opinionated Nigerians to build so much trust on him, is beyond the capacity of a man working hard on his goals.
- His wisdom and humility in managing relationships and difficult situations seem to have also helped him beat unforseen traps. He seems to have a way of making lemonades when thrown lemons. Hence he united all Nigerians without making enemies with any people group. Every one that insulted him he calls My Egbon. When labeled an actor, he accepts and rallies the Nollywood, telling them not to fail him by not voting him as a member of the Nollywood. Ha!
Pondering over these events, I am rest assured that when Peter Obi eventually reclaims his mandate, a new Nigeria will dawn upon all of us. All the people who misunderstood him or fought him for personal interest will embrace his leadership and support him. We will sing and dance with joy and our New Nigeria best depicted with the emage below emerges under The Deliverer - PO.
God bless His Excellency Peter Obi, the deliverer of Nigeria God bless the good and great people of Nigeria God bless the Federal Republic of Nigeria.
ejifranks: We challenge you Reno and the APC to prove this allegation. Peter obi is already in court to prove he is the authentic winner of the elections so APC and Reno should do the same and stop all these rabble-rousing.
The revelations will be shocking. Hope Uzodimma, Umahi, and INEC will soon be exposed for what they did in Imo and Ebonyi.
kelvinlion: They're desperate for power and have brought untold calamities to our country. They've told our mothers to go and die and unleashed their lions and tigers on our people. They've caused hardship for market women, hawkers, and traders and followed orders from godfathers instead of fulfilling the people's wishes. Now they want to use scare and deceiving tactics to return to power in Edo?
Reject them once again with your PVCs on March 11th and vote for PDP candidates for Edo State House of Assembly. Let us continue to #PutEdoFirst
Rennie Ola, Edo Village Girl
Rejected you say And they won two senate seats while your dying PDP is on the verge of extinction in EDO THANKS TO LABOUR PARTY
Ofunaofu: Those who contributed in one way or the other to hand over the people's mandate to a notorious Narcotic drug trafficker the state of Chicago has ever known will be disgraced
Afikoo: Pastor Sarah Omakwu of Family Worship Centre Abuja has rejected the announcement of Tinubu as As President elect saying He was appointed by INEC.
Yorubalandlord: Na pdp(Atiku) wan do peaceful protest oo. But you will see a bastard and an urchin salivating and spiting around mentioning LP and the OBIdient name. Just watch and see, they are irredeemable.
"A stolen crown(mandate) is just a mere cap".
These people are playing with fire.
Which mandate was stolen The one won for buafrauud @ Agulu
