I'm seeing 13 but op said 3, is it fake news?

It is your lack of reading skills that promotes fake news

LeoThaGreat:
I apologise.
I thought the INEC declared the figures I saw yesterday as the final.
I'll go update my initial post

Thanks for admitting, Sorry if i got hard on you. There was a total of 1,928 polling units. Fake news must not be propagated in this age and time when in most cases they can be verified via a google search on reputable sites.

hush15:
You have a point by rhetorically asking if the other candidate isn't credible but we all know what that side look like. The other two senators, of what use have they been to the plight of lagosians?

Of what use is an average Nigerian politician?

There will be no magic bullet to Nigerias progess, it will be gradual at best, its leaders are a reflection of its followers, and we will in most cases have to choose a one eye man inlieu of a totally blind man to lead the blind.

LeoThaGreat:
Tokunbo M. Abiru = 19,000+
B.O. Gbadamosi = 3500+
Others = -1000
Total = 23,000(?)

This is bullshit, i bet you pulled this from your asssss.

APC 89,204 PDP 11, 257

LeoThaGreat:
This shows Cross Riverians put their money where their mouth is, a.k.a coming out to vote, unlike Lagosians that complain every second and still don't vote their preferred candidate out of the 13 on the ballot box.
All votes in yesterday's Lagos East election is about 24,000, yet the PDP candidate that ran for the same post last year scored 90,000+ as second runner up.
Kaoli Olusanya lamented at Ìkòròdú town hall to his APC members that Ìkòròdú district scored just 45,000 votes in the last governorship election for APC; now the entire Lagos East across all parties scored 24,000
Lagosians are not worth fighting for.

misinformation should not be encouraged, fake news is really bad . The total votes in Lagos east election was not 24,000 or in the neighbourhood of 24,000.

hush15:
That is a complete lie. There is a credible candidate. BOG is credible. BOG will try way better than that Abiru person cos I know BOG won't want to squander the chance to reclaim Lagos from the stagnation we have had for 21yrs. Giving us piecemeal at snail's pace while enlarging that pockets at cheetah's pace. However, even if BOG i s not a credible person, there are other candidates there to choose from. Its not like that the credible person they looking for is from mars or nor living being. Na still person dem go vote for. However, when you have tried something and you begin to see that, that thing has outlived its usefulness, you change it and you don't do that by expecting miracles yo happen.

If people have lost faith in the systems or the process, not voting or doing anything will change anything cos the only way, only legitimate voice you have to make that change constitutionally is to vote and as many leaders keep disappointing, as many we must keep voting out till one deserves a second run. The solution is not in keeping silent or doing nothing but using the only voice you have to make the deepest impact.

If youths have lost hope and given up, they should just move out of the country cos as long they stay in the country they given up on, life will be unbearable for them continuously except they wake up and take charge.

Is the winner not credible? Or you simply feel he should not be voted for because of hatred for his party? Elections should not be blind support like football fans supporting their clubs.

While it is not cast in stone that the winner will perform better than his main opponent, there is a greater chance that he will be better off because of his antecedents. He is well read and a top bank former executive, while the other could not even boast of a degree certificate.

Not necessarily, it is still 60%. and the sample size of questions has increased a bit.

Canadian citizenship requires you pass 15 out of 20 questions.

Openbusiness:
Absolutely wrong! Marriage is essentially = family = home making. When it comes to a home / marriage working, a woman's role is more suited to keeping a marriage together. Women are more emotional than men, therefore a woman's emotions should be more invested in a marriage than a man's emotions, otherwise there will be crisis eventually.

For example, look at marriages in the past and marriages today. For our parents or ancestors marriages, it was common to find marriages like 50, 60 years old marriages, but marriages today hardly last. The older generations their marriages worked not because they were perfect or the husband didn't have flaws or was always wealthy etc. It worked because women of the past generations were more emotionally invested in their marriages than the men, and this kept the marriage goes even when they had storms in their relationships.

If the man failed to provide, their wives didn't just walk away, or find another richer boyfriend outside. No, they stayed and endured the poverty with their husbands. Some of them their husbands would beat them, but they didn't divorce, they went through that phase, even if it was a lot of pain, they stuck through it all to work out their marriage at all costs. Why? Because they were more emotionally invested in the marriage. They loved their husbands more.

But women who are not more emotional invested, usually at the first sight of any ish, they jump ship. They are already always packed and ready in their minds, just waiting for any opportunity to jump ship and not put in the work to keep their marriage together. Everything must be rosy or they jump ship. But a woman who is more emotionally invested, she is like a Captain, she will rather sink with her ship. She will stay and put in the work to make her marriage work.

i agree! Submission is also easier from a Woman when she loves more.
Women are emotionally complex and their reaction in relationship is not just how they are treated, reason why a lady can describe his love interest or partner as a nice guy, and go ahead and say she does not love him because she is too nice. She can end up cheating with a riff raff who clearly does not like her.

frog12:
ghetto man. Lagos of 1990 is better than lagos of today!

I guess you wheren't born then. Someone of you just just write the easiest rubbish like someone suffering down syndrome.

Maturity is somewhat related with age, though not a perfect direct proportionality, it is close . Age is also directly related to experience.

We are all shaped by our experience, and we then react to this experience in varying ways sometimes with the instrument of pretense.

RuudVanNisteroy:
Look at promise 9, 12 and 16.

I don't know the authenticity of that document, however it is not surprising and it is typical Nigerian politicians gibberish during elections. We will see all sort of rubbish policy document in 2023.

mfm04622:
1. Nigeria imports PMS. That is a given fact.
2. What dies it matter where we import from? Why the noise when we are to import from Niger? What is the difference from importing through seaports and importing from Niger?
I need someone to explain this as I don't understand it at all

Good questions that should force critical reasoning.

If we are already importing refined oil from outside Nigeria, then what could be the hullabaloo about importing from Niger?

I think the complain should be why we are importing refined oil , it is not the stupid pride or hate filled statements i see flying around.

Niger refines 20,000 barrels of oil and only needs 5,000 barrels. Nigeria needs about 400,000 barrels per day.

Don't they get tired of all these wrong predictions

Zzor:
Funny enough,the man already surprised my friend sha,a very big surprise,hes such a wonderful man after all

i just saw this...... so because he surprised your friend, he is a wonderful man I think there should be more packaged trainings for young marriageable girls in picking life partners. Wrong homes breed dsyfunctional offsprings and invariably disfunctional societies.

If this is not fiction, your friend is placing premium on minor things, in a life partner choice, if you keep focusing on ephemerals you will make wrong choices. Yahoo boys , ritualists and ruffians take advantage of so called "good girls" because they don't look out for the necessary things in men. A yahoo buy would have dashed tens of thousands for "cab" and your friend would have labelled him God fearing. It is quite laughable and i bet you are still young, possibly a teenager or early 20s.

He should not contest in 2023, he can support one of his men, it will be easier to sell an Osinbajo than him.

israelp:
dis eletronic system of vote hv alot of fruad...majoy reason y biden is leading + trump ememies wil always find a way to pull him down.i c alot of frued here

i am sure if i ask you what fraud is in the electronic system, you won't have any thing to say other than repeating what you heard. the complain is not even electronic voting, it is about mail in ballot. If you ask or read what exactly the complaint about mail in ballot you will have activated more critical reasoning. Don't follow the crowd based on your emotions.

Youths must apply more critical reasoning if they want to lead.

It is now over 9,000 votes with 98% of votes counted. It is getting worse and typically any US presidential candidate would have conceded by now.

little or no critical reasoning, they just read headlines and follow the mob.

Mentally Lazy "yoots" have read headlines as usual and writing gibberish as usual.

csn01:
then how do you think this burning will end. it is becoming 3much

Sorry if i sounded harsh, burning of govt. properties is not the way forward, they are our common patrimony. The police should step up. Citizens arrest of looters and hoodlums should be in effect too.

How these "hoodlums" think burning a school is a way to punish "government" amazes me. Politicians don"t really care except it affects their personal interest.

AreaFada2:
Guy, nor let anyone fool you.

The people we vote for are like us. They reflect us. They are our fathers, mothers, uncles, aunties, cousins, friends, neighbours, etc.

We have a morally deficient country. Our values have become generally appalling. We value and pursue amassing money and material wealth.

We need a total and massive re-orientation.

well said ! We have to agree our leaders are the reflection of the followers. Everything to an average Nigerian is me, me,me. He complains so bitterly about the wicked leader when his hand can't reach the "cookie jar" like he would do better .....mtcheew. The rot is not only from political leaders, the family leadership is corrupt in most homes, and we wonder why there are so many morally and ethically bankrupt individuals spring up from.

csn01:
BUHARI, I promise you with my last breath, you will never see the year 2021.
This is your last year on earth.
BUHARI You will die, and you will not die well.
Where are those angry mobs and irate youth, go and raise Asorock to ashes. Leave innocent people and their investment alone. leave Banks face Secretariat.

If you are at least with any iota of sense, you will know anytime government properties are burnt or destroyed, it is your loss. The same greedy and stupid politicians will award billions in naira to reconstruct with aim to loot. The average Nigerian is greedy and stupid anyways, They all want things to change for good, but they are not ready to personally change for good.

Officialgarri:
Life didn't just start in 2015 bro.

Even if you are still very young, run a google search on occupynaija 2012
Then also ask an older person about June 12 protest of 1993.

Thank you, i don't think generation Z youths should get carried away with the euphoria of the ongoing protest to think they have done something out of the world . The protests in the 70's-90's were against brutal military dictators ,and there were little or no cell phones, social media, diasporan Nigerians in thousands to support the cause.

There must be no clear leaders in the protests, however the protest should metarmorphose to protest against bad governance and clear cut restructuring demands agreed by networks of underground protest co-ordinators.

Fragility6:
You see how smart and stupid you sound? So he sat in a police van to address the protesters? You are a very unscrupulous goat and you are not ashamed about it. Go watch the video. I wont reply you again since you want to drag me down to your dumb level. Na idiots like you dey sell dier future for crumbs

I knew it. dumb as Zap. Common sense should tell you for the governor to address protesters , the convoy of cars will be stationary or close to stationary. Don't invite me to your low level . I won't reply your gibberish again.

Fragility6:
Do you see how stupid u are? Was the convoy attacked in the government's house or when they were leaving the protest. To think God created you and gave you sense but you have decided not to use it. na goats like you nai government dey like. People dey can tweak dier already empty head

You are still asking a daft question. you agreed they were leaving the protest, so i will force you to think. While the governor was in the protest , was he communicating with protesters in a moving car? Logical thinking will give you an answer, but i bet you will bury your head in the sand like a dumb ostrich that you are.

Fragility6:
Whoever believed an axe would penetrate a moving bulletproof car is one of the problems of nigeria

Were the cars moving all the time? I bet your fallacy was based on the video you saw cars moving. They need to teach more of critical or logical thinking in elementary and secondary schools

naija4life247:
No, don't mix things up.

SARS must go because they are criminals in uniform and mufti. But, you cannot dress or appear anyhow. Tattoos, dyed hair and dreads are symbols of lazy youths.

Jesus Christ did not dye his hair to orange neither did Prophet Muhammad carry artificial dread

Donald Trump, Putin, Xi, Queen Elizabeth do not have holes and rings on their nose and ears.

Ngozi Iwealla has not tattooed her face neither has Mitchell Obama.

Fashola is a Lagos boy, do you see tattoos on him?

Dress the was you want to be addressed. Those that design their bodies with tattoos and pierce all parts of their body in the so-called America you are blindly copying spend several years in jail. Abi you see tattoos for Mark Zuch body?

stop with the archaic and borderline stupid thinking! Each and everyone is different, there are performing and creative artists, musicians, bodywork enthusiasts e.t.c. i have seen at least 2 medical doctors with obvious tattoos on their bodies.

humilitypays:
Failure of efcc in combating cybercrime is the reason SARS saw it as an opportunity to enrich themselves by tagging every well dressed Nigerian youth with good phone as a Yahoo boy that deserves to be shot dead.



But then, the problem of SARS is a major problem with every Nigerian; every Nigerian take advantage of every little authority or position given to them to maltreat others.


In Nigerian hospitals Doctors and Nurses treat patients like rats without respect just because they are called Doctors!


Nigerian Lecturers treat students like their slaves just because they are their lecturers!

In banks, Bank Branch Managers and Bankers treat customers like rats, as if they own the moneys in the banks but forgetting that without the customers they will be jobless!


Give a Nigerian a small position of authority and watch him use that position to maltreat and intimidate others.


Its a Nigerian attitude.

The only way to solve this is to #EndNigeria

This summarises the rootcause of the problem. It is a �� problem with wanting power to oppress others. The rich and the poor are complicits.

Actress are more of entrepreneurs than actors. Although, many engaged in extra entrepreneurial activities like sidechick services. The male counterparts should also learn to leverage on their popularity and engage more in business activities like online sales/marketing,
