^-- It will be bribing people to vote, not outright ballot-stuffing, I think.

You won't be able to ballotstuff in Lagos because there will be ACN members at each polling booth. So they can just add up the #s across all the polling booths to find out who won. If the PDP does any "magic" and the #s they release disagree with the ones you got from adding up, then you can reject the election results as cooked.

muami:
You should have your head examined if the only people you can cite
Not citing them only, citing the arguments they used.

in support of your junkie-thinking arguments are the people mentioned above.In case you dont know, both El Rufai and Pro Aluko are staunch  CPC members while Campbell has never seen anything good in PDP for reasons best known to him ( check his blog and you would see), which is why the US government posted him to where he would be insignificant.
Ad hominem attack by you; their political leaning are irrelevant. You either agree with their writeups or not.

a By the way, if you cite CPC members like El ufai to support your arguments, why is it difficult for you to accept the point made by the same CPC members in the South East who say that the elections were FREE AND FAIR.
There are several stages to the election. The actual voting at the centers appears the be free and fair, the collation of the votes probably wasn't.

Anyway, the elections have come and gone, so it is either you and your fellow terrorists in the CPC go to court or jump into the lagoon!
Again, I'm not a CPC supporter. This is just a matter of principle.

Hehe.

That is the most surprising thing about all of this to me. People who at least in theory should understand more (since they've lived most of their lives in the country) do not.

Rigged election, they dance in the street and celebrate rather than asking simple, almost elementary questions. Obvious questions, really. I wonder what has poisoned the minds of people, sapped their will that they are too afraid to confront the truth in the face.

Cracks me up that a "google nigerian" seems to be able to pick things up faster than certain non-google nigerians in this thread. Though I'm certainly not alone; many people on the ground have realized the obvious, this Ambadassor Campbell, Prof Aluko, and Nasir El-Rufai being just a few of them.

I used to wonder how Lebanese, Indians and other foreigners would enter Nigeria and completely start dominating business-wise within a few years. How can someone completely master a foreign land within 2 years of arriving, I'd ask myself.

Of course, now I know the answer.

Hopefully one day my people will ask questions. Show more curiosity. Rather than eating any answer they are spoonfed.

Maybe one day "google Nigerians" won't be able to see the truth more rapidly than many real Nigerians cool

The fulani are never a majority in any of the northern states. Infact, they're a minority tribe up there in the north lording it over the other ethnic groups there as a result of a sense of entitlement thanks to Fodio's conquests.[/quote]50 or 100 years from now, people might look back at recent events and say that Buhari losing is the best thing that ever happened for the Hausa man.

"Born-to-rule" doesn't seem to benefit them at all undecided

@Johndoe100: Truth be told, many of you don't seem to know your own country very well. Not exactly the most surprising thing in the world that a "foreigner" like myself seems to see certain things in it faster than you do.

kandikane, you have tribal marks too? They must be tiny, I didn't notice in any of your pictures.

I didn't even know ethnic groups in Guinea do that type of stuff.
Politics › Re: Secret Behind Sanusi Lamido's Appointment by ektbear: 3:50am On Apr 23, 2011
Are the Hausa happy with the state of affairs? They they are ruled over by Fulani? Why must (almost) every major northern leader be Fulani?

In mosques, if there are Fulani and Hausa there, can the Hausa take the lead?

The way you paint the picture, I feel pretty bad for the Hausa man.

Obiagu. . dude.

So you aren't contesting that there was massive rigging in the SE zone, but instead beefing that I wasn't specific enough in my post, and instead should have said "83.56% in Imo State"  huh

That is what has your panties in a knot?

My bad, I'll be more precise next time in my next sarcastic response to alex101. I didn't have the spreadsheet out in front of me when I was ridiculing the fraudulent high turnout, otherwise I've have been more specific.

If they would release #s for each LGA, I could even be more precise. But of course, they won't do that.

kandiikane:
Having a plastic surgery for tribal marks will just make it worse because they are deep incisions which cannot be lasered off so the only way  to  cover it up is by having skin grafts which will just be a weird multicolored face with the tones of skin.
Hrm, I see. Never mind, then.

State Voter Turnout #2
Imo 83.56%
Abia 77.95%
Enugu 62.47%
Anambra 57.52%
Ebonyi 47.87%
Bayelsa 85.61%
Rivers 76.32%
Akwa Ibom 76.22%
Delta 68.82%
Cross River 63.24%


Which of these are you sure without a reasonable doubt are clean? Ebonyi might be the most trustworthy, but even that I wouldn't bet money on.

High voter turnout, but governors lamenting on TV about poor turnout tongue

High voter turnout, but media coverage saying low voter turnout.

High voter turnout, but the streets not jam packed with people.

Maybe we should commit fraud too in four years and then mock others for not being as enthusiastic about voting.

4 years time. . . we'll get 115% voter turnout  grin grin grin

"Yorubaland has 175% voter turnout. Why didn't you guys come out and vote like we did?" grin grin grin

I don't know whether you can fix it via plastic surgery. I am assuming that if plastic surgery could remove the tribal marks, then more people with marks would have had it removed. Then maybe it is an expensive surgery.
They can fix almost anything with plastic surgery. A guy I knew in college was born with a cleft palate, they fixed him up

If they can fix that, surely they can fix some minor scarring

Wouldn't know the price though. If that is what is preventing her from having relationships, she should seriously look into it

[quote author=alex_101 link=topic=652716.msg8185677#msg8185677 date=1303522973]These same absconders are also questioning the high voter-turnout in the SE/SS, when they themselves failed to show up for their candidate Ribadu[/quote]Lol. Our bad. Sorry we cannot match 84% voter turnout. Then again, probably in no major election in US history has 84% turnout ever happened. Or Canadian. Or Mexican.

In 4 years time, don't worry, by hook or crook we will get 84% turnout too tongue

high voter turnout ko, fraud ni

Though I doubt it'd be that expensive to fix via plastic surgery.

Man, that is so minor

If she is otherwise a dime piece, wth not? Barely noticeable

Worst case scenario, she spends some money on plastic surgery to fix it up

I wouldn't let a great girl go because of something minor like that.

What do you mean, "mixed with Igbo"?

Many Idoma are of Igbo descent. . . ? Intermarriage? What?

Are there any LGAs in Benue where Igbo is the primary language, for example?

LGAs in Benue, FWIW:

Man if a girl is fine and the only thing is she has small tribal marks, I think I could get past that.

I don't think people should do it to their kids anymore though in this day and age.
