Away from the political campaign by the 2 major political parties in the country, there is another issue that has become a source of controversy. It is the collection of Permanent Voter's Card (PVC) by registered voters by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC).

Daily Trust reports: "A total of 15.5 million Permanent Voter Cards (PVCs), representing 29 per cent, are yet to be distributed, according to a document of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC)". http://www.dailytrust.com.ng/daily/top-stories/43979-over-15m-yet-to-get-pvcs

Many Nigerians are agitated by the fact that they have not been able to collect their PVC and the National Security Adviser Sambo Dasuki was reported to have said he had discussed the matter with the INEC Chairman Prof Attahiru Jega, adding that a delay within the time allowed by the law will not be a bad idea.

“That is what we are encouraging at the moment,” he said, noting that INEC had been able to distribute 30 million PVCs but had an outstanding 38.8 million others to hand out. (Source:http://uncova.com/inec-reacts-says-no-going-back-on-february-elections)

“The provision (for holding a general election) is for not more than 90 days and not less than 30 days before the end of the administration. " (Source:
http://www.vanguardngr.com/2015/01/no-delay-needed-for-nigerian-election-electoral-body/). This means the election could hold as late as April 30, 2015.

So what do you think? Should INEC postpone the elections to allow more Nigerians collect their PVC and vote or should the elections hold regardless of the millions that might potentially miss out on voting if they do not get their PVCs in time?

Capital NO, d election must hold as scheduled...

Most of you will never see anything wrong with Tinubu even if he turns your whole generations to peasants in his fiefdom. You have been condemned to lick his arseee because of the crumbs you pick from his table.

Ole alatenu'je. Awon omo at'oko waba ile je.

I stated d fact not d abusive words u used, its. Immorally incorrect of u to pontificate when Tinubu ve never been charged for any corrupt related offen ces, I ve never met Tinubu however,I salute his sagacity in politics dt even ur whole generation can not wish away,when d history of political events are written in Nig, Tinubu's name will be bolDly placed. Or u doubt that assertion On ur insult, dts una trademark esp when u re defeated with superior argument..iwo gan ni omo Irankiran..oponu airada..

one can accuse Tinubu of anything, but his penchant to fish out real talents is what he uses to beat his detractors, if OBJ have any vestige of Tinubu's trait, nig will not be in ds mess! I give it to Asiwaju, he is a 'Fisher' of talents....gba be

Kenai:
Was the 1984 New York Times article I posted exposing the fact that Buhari signed a pact with Brazil to refine our oil outside the country also owned by MKO Abiola, or are you looking for new ghosts to blame for that one?

When NANS came out a few days ago to say they would NEVER support Buhari, did the APC fanatics not claim they were PAID BY GEJ? Yet this article I posted has REVEALED why they never liked the man.
Who are you going to blame for that one too?

Keep looking for ghosts to accuse for the crimes of your hypocritical Mr. Integrity.

in military junta, anything goes including banning of interest groups, so d shortcomings of Buhari's govt in. 1983 has been forgiven, if IBB and others dt installed GMB were a bit careful ,Nig would ve been a better and organised country by now. GMB would have guarantee a better future than d wasteful IBB dt came after him...

oneeast:
Buhari should be arrested immediately if he fail to report himself to a police station for forgery and perjury..

u can. As well send ur Dad to effect d arrest now Olodo upon 100! Mtchew...don't worry ur nerves, if they born PDP well, they shld go to court or oh, d court are on strike We shall disgrace una at d polls and u will spend sm time in court after d election oof GMB...

HighBK:
Earlier this week, Ayo Fayose sponsored a controversial advert in Nigerian Newspapers, notably front-page of Punch (check it here if you missed it). The advert generated a lot of buzz in the media, PDP was quick to disown the advert while Fayose maintained that he has no apology for the advert.

Well, seems the advert fund is not exhausted. The Governor today sponsored another ad-set, taking a shot at General Muhammadu Buhari. In the advert as seen on page 9. of the Punch; he emphasized that Buhari is too old to be President at 72.

Buhari is too old to be President at 72 Even APS Governor Raji Fashola admits the need for youthfulness in governance. Fashola has said, "When I took this job at the age of 44, I was counting the number of white hair on my head. Today at 52, I am counting the number of black hair on my head. "You see, this job is a tough job, you need youthfulness to do this job"

the beauty of democracy is plethora of options, so if as Nigerians we decide to elect a supposedly old man to power, then dts our palava, don't understand all d noise about ds issue, is Buhari mentally and physically ok to do d job? For me, GMB is good to go, d looters are afraid and dts d more 'cardinal' position more Nigerians are supporting d old man...When ds young pple are buying private jets even more than USA, and d best University in Nigeria is not in d list of 1000 universities in d world, then what's d future? I was at a Polytechnic, d Mechanical Engr Dept has nothing in it for practical assessment so GMB we want...is it by force we support PDP ds time? GEJ didn't sweat in 2011, it was a walk-over, but defeat is starring GEJ in d face and I mean it with all sense of seriousness

Clerverly:
Only the likes of Sardauna, Awolowo, Zik can pull such crowd' some even left their homes by 5am just to see GMB..some were crying some singing.. what manner of love is this??

tears drop off my cheek also, and in my lifetime at over 40, I can witness ds kind of crowd in a political rally? Ds is intimidating, awesome, unprecedented and Jonathanians will faint, watching it live on DSTV 254, clean ,clear and I'm moved...'baba oyoyo' one of d songs sang for Sai Buhari !!!! Northerners know how to turn out for political events...

lurther:
And he was denied an electoral post by tinubu. How in the whole wide world will a man be governor for 8 good solid years and he couldn't influence the aftermaths of his exit. Once fashola leaves office 29th of may, that is the end of his shadow in lagos state. His only hope is just for APC to win and lobby for appointment.

He could not even get the senatorial ticket to stay relevant. And some people will say here that he is not greedy ooo.
He didn't even have a say on whom his successor would be. After 8 good solid years of being a governor and he is still dancing shoki for tinubu.

I love this guy, but after 8years and he still has no say in lagos, then there must be something wrong somewhere.

don't worry ur nerves, Fashola is going to Abuja for another Top job from GMB, take dt to d bank

Kayworld26:
This is sad, imbecilic...if not for any other thing, this picture will NEVER make me vote for GEJ

ds is a big pointer dt PDP and its goons are having sleepless nights, and they are jittery, apprehensive,confused,depreciated, and lost d plot in ways of wooing voters to GEJ's side. I'm at loss when a sitting Govt stoop ds low, what has age got to do with presiding on a nation? Some pple are gifted dt at over 70 they can look healthy and okay medically...I ve someone in my family at 82yrs, and the old man is as fit as a fiddle, PDP are making many undecided voters to have sympathy for GMB in d run-up to d election. PDP shld stop all ds attack on d person of Buhari and focus on whatever its left of his image in North-central, south-east, and south-south regions so as to counter d votes from North-west because those pple know how to turn out for election, mark my words, if Kano, Katsina, Sokoto, Kaduna,Jigawa, Bauchi deliver a bloc vote, then GEJ will collapse in Aso Villa!!!!!!!!!!

PUBLICITY STUNT.....SHEBI ELECTION TIME DON REACH....

PLS WHAT POST IS HE CONTESTING IN THE UPCOMING POLLS

Gov Aliyu is vying for a senatorial seat in Niger state!!!

thepillarofafrica:
I'm patiently waiting for their polite response

what's there to respond to? Mtchew...very dull assessment of Mr President delivery of speech...APC shd ignore him and focus on selling GMB to d voters, d inroads of Buhari is giving PDP headache and heartache...in 2011, without a single governor, GMB polled more than 12m votes, and now with 16 govs, and massive interest in change slogan, d FEBUHARI's election will be interesting and monumental...see u on 14th..

olatunji21:
What is incriminating there?
Multiple registration of APC members by APC on its own database is incriminating?

how do DSS know d pictures alleged to be minors bear d names on d APC form? I have d APC membership form in my possession, and ditto my wife and kid, so I find d findings of DSS, embarrassing, unmoved, unearthing and in bad taste...ha, DSS angry with membership drive of a political party Something is surely wrong

otbliz:
He was the head of state once, a contestant thrice.
So na Wetin we 1 use certificate do?
2003 there was no fuss, same in 2007 and 2011.
Now what?

its either some people need brain check or already deranged to suggest dt Nig's former Head of state and 3 times contestant will now be tagged 'semi-illiterate' by a pathetic PDP, I don't want to use strong words but playing politics with ds is rather in bad taste and a testimony dt PDP has nothing to showcase her candidate but to malign d person of Buhari who is giving them big Headache...PDP could not use d certificate issue in 2011. because PDP were solid form then and d opposition is not so stiff but now after d dismay and dismal performance of his flagbearer and frittering away d goodwill given him in 2011,they are now scampering for safety and protection. I wonder what happened to d massive show of love given to Dr Jonathan in 2011? He was so loved by 80% but 4 yrs down d lane, 70% are against him! What step did he took to land him in ds 'soup'? My observation is dt President Jonathan failed to side d masses but instead sided with some powerful few and d resultant effect is now so obvious for everyone to see...MASSIVE FAILURE

obynoses:
Kindly show it to us Oga.so dt we van clear all doubts and knw who is fooling who.

Moving from a comatose rail system to what we presently have despite the huge expenditure expended in tackling insurgency coupled with the beheading, kidnap and killing of many rail construction workers is commendable!

in a few weeks time the president will also be commissioning sub saharan Africa's First speed rail

though some improvement but in d 21st century, is ds d rail in South-Africa? Or Namibia

joseArnolds:
which of the politician in Nigeria that does not loot Government treasury; is it tinibu, amaechi, fayemi, fashola who

Dbboy:
Let make this clear can you define stealing explicitly as corruption or the other way round is corruption stealing?

We argue without making any meaning of what we are arguing about.

on d same street we walk, 'stealing is corruption' so say smtin undignifing is rather pathetic, Is stealing a crime? Yes! Is Corruption a crime? YES, so what's d meaning of d argument?

BiHung:
And how much did they say he stole?
How many bomb explosions were recorded?
How many insurgencies overpowered his government?

ODE LAWON PiPu Yii sha

'oponu airada ma ni won! When wikileak release any document, d powers in Abuja will discredit them, and now some deranged pple are circulating ds balderdash...pathetic pple on d loose.....

newslife:
The presidential primaries of the All Progressives
Congress which was held at the Teslim Balogun
stadium, Surulere, Lagos, has come and gone. Carrying the day was Muhammadu Buhari, who
edged out four other contenders to win the ticket
to represent the APC at the general elections, in
2015. While the venue has been deserted by the
thousands of delegates and party members who
attended the primaries, traces of their presence is
still visible in every part of the Teslim Balogun
stadium.

so after 2 days on gathering of about 9,000 pple u expect dt d stadium will be neat like Mecca? Check ur brain joor!

p3ndy79:
So ogar like her oga are just bunch of foolish people. How do this people get to be leaders in this country?

All listed items are related to the purpose APC said the centre is meant for, data capturing of its membership and turn them into soft copies after the registration done in hardcopies and hand filling of forms by prospecting members.

What has somebody registering 19times have to do with INEC CLONE PVC OR ILLEGAL ENTRY INTO INEC DATABASE TO HACK AND SUPERIMPOSE AND REPLACE IT INFORMATION ON THEIR VOTERS REGISTER..

Why not show the world the CLONE PVC you saw there, THE IP HISTORY AND HACKING PROCEDURES INTO INEC DBMS, tangible and verifiable list of items to show the APC is culpable of the offenses you accused them of.

Is this woman so daft and useless not to know the types of things expected to be in a DATA FIELD ENTRY OFFICE, wasn't the REGISTRATION DRIVE OF APC advertised enough.

Honestly, I was expecting to see pictures of seized 'cloned' PVC but alas, none came. Why do we stop being rational and logical? DSS has made a big mess of themselves, ds is in bad taste...stop being partisan and face your job

ttmacoy:
I tell you.

Over 40 students died yesterday and focus is all on elections. No compassion or value for human life.

do u remember what Senator Mccain said about Nig's govt? "non-existent govt!" so, d compassion must flow from top down to bottom. When VP Sambo lost his brother in car crash, didn't d Federal Executive council meeting cancelled? Ds govt knows his priorities well and its d way govt is set-up here. Despite my misgivings about d attire OBJ wore to Lagos during d April 2002 blast in Ikeja Barracks ,OBJ came to visit d scene but what has GEJ done? He can't go beyond Abuja infact GEJ held 1 independent day celebrations in Aso Villa, d man no wan die!!!!

nairaarea:
Today what Ogoni's yearn for is the full implementation of the UNEP report/ clean up of Ogoni land and An Ogoni governor in Rivers state

what else do u want? At least ur son has been at d helms since 2010 and did Not deem it necessary to enforce d clean-up of Ogoni land ,so if another tribe get there in 2015,then u will realise dt ur region put forward 3rd eleven for d whole nation!

Listening to Inspiration 92.3FM, a breaking news was just read to the public stating that the Speaker of the House of Assembly,Alhaji Aminu Tambuwal has officially defected to the APC but he still retains his seat as the Speaker. He made his declaration officially known to the house today at the floor of the plenary holding today. It is not clear how many other member of the house joined him in his defection.
----Source,Inspiration 92.3FM

political scientists shld be up and doing now, want to read a sensible write-up or article articulating d fate of Mr President state after state, and tell me dt GEJ will be d very 1st incumbent to lose an election! GEJ ,u ve used up d incredible goodwill accorded him before 2011 election, just hope our votes count!!!!!!

arresa: To start with, these worthless and incompetent losers let Ebola into Nigeria after lying to Nigerians that they have Ebola vaccine that doesn't exist anywhere on the surface of the earth and even did little or nothing to fight the virus in Nigeria, now the crude, crass and incompetent clowns are taking credit when in fact the credit belongs to the brave medical doctors, first responders and the rest of the folks on the ground endangering their lives to keep us safe.

How low can these worthless scumbags sink?

its in bad faith and taste for PDP and Presidency to claim victory on d containment of Ebola, Dr Adadevoh shld ve been mentioned as a matter of encouragement to other medical personnels working day and night to fight ds deadly Ebola. PDP are taking credit for doing absolutely NOTHING!

[quote author=Sincere9gerian][/quote]isn't dt a misnomer to claim credit for d curb of Ebola but shying away from taking responsibility on BH? Abeg, Mr President ,d Buck stop on ur desk

LilNetty: The Defence Headquarters has insisted that it has killed Abubakar Shekau in a recent raid, in Konduga and that as a result, many of the Boko Haram foot soldiers have surrendered and laid down their weapons.

In a statements issued by the Defence Information Spokesperson, Maj. Gen . Chris Olukolade, the Army commended its men for their gallantry even in the face of extreme confrontation by the insurgents.

It further confirmed that on the 2 and 17 September 2014, the insurgents attempted to violate the security in the region and tried to enter Konduga to perpetrate their atrocities. It said that with Air and land forces deployed to handle the situation, the convoy of combat vehicles typical of terrorists’ mission that involves their top commanders, were fiercely engaged, where ”several of the terrorists including some of their commanders lost their lives in encounters which lasted an average of about 5 hours each. ”

The statement said the troops captured some of the terrorists and their equipment and as well killed Shekau. It said; ”In the course of those encounters, one Mohammed Bashir who has been acting or posing on videos as the deceased Abubakar Shekau, the eccentric character known as leader of the group died. Since the name Shekau has become a brand name for the terrorists’ leader, the Nigerian military remains resolute to serve justice to anyone who assumes that designation or title as well as all terrorists that seek to violate the freedom and territory of Nigeria,”the military warned.
