SoutheastFacts and Stephleena, can you both do yourself a favour and stop these unnecessary bitterness and hate, because you'll only hurt yourself in the process. Everyone is applauding Yoruba for voting PDP massively despite the fact that they have their son as VP candidate. But here you both are - bashing the same people. This is total madness and hate.

Guzel:
Read with comprehension. He never said Bruce contested

He said Bruce was rejected by the delegates. Is that not primaries he's referring to?

dhuthraki:
You are right. From my understanding, there is a rotational agreement in his senatorial zone that doesn't allow anyone from a constituency to go for more than one term.

Exactly.

seunmsg:
This is a big slap on Ben Murray Bruce face. He was rejected by PDP delegates and then the people voted for an APC senator to replace with. So much for common sense.

Misinformation. Ben Bruce never contested the primaries.

There's nothing to unmask about him. He's a registered APC member. He doesn't work in the Presidency. He's a rice farmer who made millions due to this administration's cancellation of rice importation and subsequent skyrocketing of the price of made-in-Nigeria rice. A black, tall young man of around 35 years from Lagos and married to a lady from Anambra. Need I tell you that he never ceases to use the word 'know' when he means 'no' ?
OK, let me stop here.

Every (fake) pastor wants to be in the news. So when they dream and it meets their biases, they conclude it's a prophesy of what is to come.

Hmmmm

This man's penchant for writing letters is becoming boring and disgusting.

Not all his predictions came through though. He said Atiku was going to defeat Buhari by winning 25 states.

Akpabio's cause for defeat was overconfidence and too much of boasting. He was seeing himself as a god. Even Saraki never boasted during any of his campaigns, but this man was deifying himself.

adewumiopeyemi:
Like for apc share for pdp.

Behave yourself, Mr man. Grow up!

Lilisticlili:
If you tell a man to grow up,then it means you are in..san..e your self.

You have been noticed, English prof. Bye.

hisexcellency34:
When he was changing Election date, he thought he was doing Buhari

You're neither here nor there. On thread A, you support Saraki, another thread, you start supporting APC.

sexiestharam:
2/3 of 36 is 24. Buhari and Atiku will get 25% in at least 24 states. So the winner will be based on the highest number of votes by the candidate. There cannot be a rerun.

The Constitution (I've read it almost cover to cover) says "AT LEAST". Even if a candidate wins 97% in 23 states and has less than 25% (like APC in the SS or SE), that candidate cannot be declared winner.

bolkay47:
Osun State Governorship Election comes to mind.

Of course, I know APC's desperation to win at all cost will be tripled, but I think that's the only hope for an Atiku win.

Oyimeoyimemua:
I personally wouldn't want that to happen

What's your reason?

According to the Constitution, even if a candidate emerges with the highest number of votes, but fails to get AT LEAST 25% in ⅔ of the states (ie 24 states), there'll be rerun between the first and the runner-up. Buhari will most likely poll the highest number but fail to satisfy the condition, leading to a charged rerun in the whole federation, and then Atiku wins.

Most of the results (from Premium Times and The Cable) coming from Oyo State has PDP giving APC uppercuts. This is quite surprising.

Your guess is as good as mine - APC handiwork.

Fake news. Leaders.ng is one of PDP's propaganda media outfits just like APC have theirs.

It's only in Nigeria we reduce our police to rubbish that we don't consider them capable enough of providing security for politicians. I never cease to feel disgusted when I see soldiers running around ordinary ministers when they go to inspect projects. It's an anomaly.

Very good. It's remaining the Kano APC chairman who last week vowed to attack Kwankwaso if he came to his hometown, and has fulfilled the 'promise'. We play too much in this country. Police stand aloof whilst desperate criminals make hate speeches. Until the police start doing their job by immediately swooping on threat issuers, this cycle of violence will continue.

In other words, she has bet her life savings on the two events.

That's your opinion. 4+0

The probability that APC will win Kwara governorship is way above 75%. But that does not mean they'll not lose this Saturday's presidential elections.

The truth is that the fake news bombardment is coming from both sides - PDP and APC. Fake news is so deadly that it can start a war. This era of ubiquitous social media has made everyone a news maker, and unfortunately, some people have mastered the art of fake news, for political purposes.

hinwazaka:
One day, we will wake up and hear that Buhari has sold Tinubu, oshiomole and amaechi. So this kind of matter, only you, yourself and you will discuss it and take action. You will not involve saraki and dogara before taking a decision. Na wa

What a senseless post. Cooperate on what? Why didn't you copy the whole article? Stop being mischievous with news for the sake of likes.

..

Sabotage from APC sympathisers.

Goldenonyx:
I just came across this post on Facebook, is this the greatest Nigerian prophecy of all time?

Your gullibility knows no ends. So you couldn't deduce that this was either Photoshoped or the post was edited?

If anyone ever told me that Amaechi had thugs or is into violent politics, I'd have disagreed with him. Not until last week that senator Magnus confessed how Amaechi asked him to mobilise thugs to burn down INEC office in Rivers back in 2015. I won't be surprised if he's currently one of those preparing armed thugs to cause confusion in the Niger Delta.

Fake news

Interesting. If truly INEC mentioned "sabotage" as part of the failure in holding the election then there's nothing wrong in inviting them to come and explain what they mean by that and who they think was responsible for the sabotage.

Vanity upon vanity. BTW how come she's never aged past 16?
