An election boycott is the boycotting of an election by a group of voters, each of whom abstains from voting. Boycotting may be used as a form of political protest where voters feel that electoral fraud is likely, or that the electoral system is biased against its candidates, that the polity organizing the election lacks legitimacy, or that the candidates running are very unpopular. T In jurisdictions with compulsory voting, a boycott may amount to an act of civil disobedience; alternatively, supporters of the boycott may be able to cast blank votes or vote for "none of the above". Boycotting voters may belong to a particular regional or ethnic group. A particular political party or candidate may refuse to run in the election and urges its supporters to boycott the vote. In the case of a referendum, a boycott may be used as a voting tactic by opponents of the proposition. If the referendum requires a minimum turnout to be valid, the boycott may prevent this quorum being reached. Parliamentary elections were held in Nigeria on 30 December 1964, although they were not held until 18 March 1965 in some constituencies in Eastern Region, Lagos, and Mid-Western Region due to a boycott in December. The election saw most parties run as part of alliances, the Nigerian National Alliance (the Northern People's Congress, the Nigerian National Democratic Party, the Midwest Democratic Front, the Dynamic Party, the Niger Delta Congress, the Lagos State United Front and the Republican Party) and the United Progressive Grand Alliance (the National Council of Nigeria and the Cameroons, Action Group, the Northern Progressive Front, the Kano People's Party, the Northern Elements Progressive Union, the United Middle Belt Congress and the Zamfara Commoners Party). The result was a victory for the Northern People's Congress, which won 162 of the 312 seats in the House of Representatives, whilst the NNA held a total of 198 seats. However, the election was marked by manipulation and violence. In general elections, individuals and parties will often boycott in order to protest the ruling party's policies with the hope that when voters do not show up the elections will be deemed illegitimate by outside observers. This tactic, however, can prove disastrous for the boycotting parties. Lack of participation rarely nullifies election results and the distorted voting is likely to further detach boycotting groups from the organs of power, leaving them susceptible to political irrelevance. |
The veteran defender karate kicked one of the French club's fans before a recent Europa League match. s been banned from European club football until June 30, 2018 for his Karate kick on a Marseille fan. The club confirmed that the former French international (pictured, center) would leave "by mutual consent" in a statement on Friday, minutes after European football's governing body UEFA announced the ban from their competitions. The 36-year-old must also pay a €10,000 fine. He got in to a verbal altercation with his own fans before aiming a kick at one of them and was sent off before a match against Portuguese club Vitoria on November 2. After the incident, Marseille president Jacques-Henri Eyraud condemned the "unacceptable behavior" of some fans who insulted the player but suspended the player and opened an internal investigation into Evra's actions. France coach Didier Deschamps had his say on the incident ahead of his side's match with Wales on Friday night. "I'm neither condemning him nor judging him," said Deschamps, for whom Evra played at Monaco and with France. "Patrice is fully aware of the consequences. It's something that you just can't do and he knows that," said Deschamps. Evra played for Manchester United and Juventus and won 81 France caps in a highly-decorated career. It is currently unclear whether he will now hang up his boots. cc: lalasticlala,mynd44

Bitcoin, the world's most famous cryptocurrency, has fallen dramatically in value over the last two days, dropping below a $7,000 (€6012) value per one bitcoin on Friday, having edged close to the $8,000 mark as recently as Wednesday evening. Such swings are nothing new for Bitcoin — it often moves by hundreds of dollars in a given day — and as recently as September, it crashed by around 40 percent in the space of two weeks, dropping from a value of $5,000 to $3,000. On Friday, Bitcoin had dropped in value to $6,870 on the Luxembourg-based Bitstamp exchange but while the fall, around 7 percent for the week in total, is significant, the overall story for Bitcoin in 2017 has been one of relentless rises. The value of the digital currency, which was created in 2009 with the aim of securing and organizing financial transactions beyond centralized banking systems, has shot up by an extraordinary 600 percent this year alone. Don't divide, and conquer? It has been a dramatic few days for Bitcoin. On Wednesday, a major software upgrade for the technology was suspended after an influential group of Bitcoin developers and investors said it could "divide the community." The Bitcoin network has struggled to cope with rapidly increasing demand and the upgrade was aimed primarily at dealing with that issue. However, it would also have changed Bitcoin's rules and effectively created a second cryptocurrency, a contentious move among many, hence the "split community" rhetoric. cc: lalasticlala,mynd44 dragnet https://go2pedia..com.ng/2017/11/bitcoin-value-falls-dramatically-in-48.html?showComment=1510344446881#c4377572700271317726
