Feggie3:
There is no problem. Let them cancel Enugu, Rivers, Lagos and Akwaibom election let us revote and see who will win squarely.

If these states are canceled, APC still won

OmoFiditi:
When Thiefnubuu is done rushing to Abuja with cooked Ekiti, Kwara, Ogun and ondo votes that were exposed with overvoting right inside the collation center, the main votes collation begins.

Urchins, tighten your seat belts. E ma ya werey!

By now, E suppose Don clear for your eyes now.

Workch:
Obi is winning in most number states currently. But he may not get the popularity votes.

Irrespective of what Tinubu gets, if he doesn't make 25% in FCT, there will be a runoff

You should try to day calm down before arguing blindly.
You were insisting on this wrong notion and refused correction.
Day calm down boss

Workch:
Stop arguing, winner must get 25% in 24 states AND FCT.

Prof. Workch, I hope it's clear now.

Workch:
Tinubu is not winning Atiku in kano. Calm down.

Just keep calm

Lolzzz

alsudan:
President PO already has majority votes.

The target is to hit 25% in 24 states and he will be declared President Elect by this time tomorrow.

Lol

shadrach77:

Not true. Christians are majority in 9ja. The reason Jagaban won was because Christians voted for him. Not all Christians bought the lie/sentiment which Obi was trying to sell to them. Some people saw him for what he really is

Christians are not the majority in Nigeria

nairalee:
this shows that Nigeria is too polarized along tribal lines.
OBI got overwhelming votes from South East
TINUBU swept the south West
ATIKU captured the North West
EVEN ORDINARY KWANKWASO got good votes in the North West

Wrong for south west. Tinubu lost his home state lagos to LP and lost Osun state to PDP.
Atiku also didn't sweep North West coz Tinubu won Jigawa and Zamfara

It is the South East that's followed the tribal polarity you described

ussv:
It`s irrelevant. Atiku, Kwankaso and Obi courted each other but nobody agreed to step down. They collectively gave their destiny to Tinubu. It wasn't hard for me to see. I knew this would be the outcome.

You sabi. None of Kwankwaso or Obi has the political power to single handedly defeat APC.
Atiku could've, if he had a united house.
What Obidients failed to learn is.... to become Nigeria president is about getting the HIGHEST vote. On their own, it was futile from the start.

zicoraads:

Erm... elections actually works like that. Remember the 2015 elections?

An alliance wins you elections world over. An Atiku/Obi candidacy would have won the elections.

Unless you're choosing to just argue for the sake of it.

If Obi was still in PDP, he can never garner anything close to his current massive support in Nigeria.
Rather an Atiku/Obi candidacy, with Wike and Kwankwaso support would have defeated APC.
PDP disunity handed over The Country to Tinubu

TOPCRUISE:
To win a ruling party in Nigeria you have to form an alliance

Thank you.
Peter failed to grasp that Nigeria is North and South.
The Core North can't vote for him, but they would vote if he is side by side with with powerful, well known and well loved northern politicians.
Only Christians can't win you Nigeria presidential election.
Hope he learns now.

bibiking7:



Rather than vote for whatever candidate that the parties force on us from their primaries. I think the youths should get in involved in party politics.
We are being forced to pick bad from the worse.
Just my thought.

God bless you for this
Actually, youths are trying to, but lack major support from fellow youths.
Just try take a look at the minor parties presidential candidates

00FFT00:


No mind them.
No 25% in FCT, No Aso Rock.

Lolz.. I hope you're clear on this now

Treadway:
the statement credited to Falana states that winning FCT is not a prerequisite. He did not say securing the 25% required is not a prerequisite. Having 25% in a state/FCT is different from winning a state/FCT

I hope you're clear about this now.

OmoFiditi:


In the South and middle belt it has every say. Go and check the 2019 elections trends. It will have a say in the North this time. There are 80 million Nigerians on social media, you know this. Embrace the truth. Even Thiefnubuu used social media to campaign for APC against GEJ in 2015. Stop deceving your skull Ogbeni.

Fayos1:

LOL. I will quote you in about a days time. Do not just try to claim the election was rigged when results are out.

How far Oga?

Fut9ure:
Tinubu will never rule Nigeria

We can't handover a nation in this critical time to a sick man

Still in denial.
deal with it.
All results are out.
Emilokan is your president

Atlantis585:


Keep deceiving yourselves.
More States just got declared for Atiku with lots more votes.
It’s okay for you BATstards to be excited for now.
Soon you will start to wail as usual.

All states results are out now.
Can your repeat yourself please?

pacesetting:
Obi will even perform better than Atiku in Kogi. I wonder where he manufactured those figures from. Atiku is not getting 50% of any state in North Central.

Can you repeat this now?

zedegit:



May you not live to witness it.
If I be a man of God, you will see it happen but you won't enjoy it for speaking against the Lord's anointed.Then shall you know that the Lord, He is God.

Baba turn Evil prayer warrior. Lol. Take it easy

jetwonder:

We will fight this War of Armageddon!

Which war? Better rest

jetwonder:

We will fight this War of Armageddon!

Is Nigeria worth dying for?

Who go win?

Felabrity:
- thieffnubu failed in FCT, I am elated

-atiefku fighting back

- a rerun loading

- Tinubu will get less than 25% in many states, if they collate the results properly

- imo, delta and Anambra results yet to be announced

- sokoto?

- Rivers results should be cancelled, APC did not win ward talk more of LGA in that state

Irony. Only Tinubu will get 25% in 24 states

princeade86:
Kogi and ekiti election will be cancel

What about anambra, Imo, enugu e.t.c

Nice2023:



A day before the election.

The legal body of the Inec staff insisted that the winner of the election must as a matter of fact,win Abuja if not,he or she must be set for a rerun.

And today,that is where we are...Abuja is NOT a state and it is Federal Capital territory and no one can lay claim of this place not even any tribe and so shall it be.

"Legal body" of "INEC staff" insisted winner of election "MUST WIN" Abuja.
Why you day lie na?

bazoodo:
the second run off just requires the winner to score the highest number of votes

So, according to you, a candidate sweeping all of FCT votes is enough for a rerun regardless of all other 36 states results

cursedAbiola:
then their will be a re-run which a simple majority will now win the election.
the constitution is clear here.
you can't appoint an administrator where you're rejected because that will no longer be democracy.
that's why the constitution was clear on that.

According to you then, a single candidate sweeping most of the votes in FCT alone is enough for a re-run regardless of all 36 others states

cursedAbiola:
these people doesn't even know what a state is

FCT has an appointed minister from the president.
Constitution is clear here that's why they specifically put and
because meeting 25% means you're averagely accepted there so it means they trust you to appoint a good administrator for them.
anything apart from 25% is not acceptable which means they totally rejected you.
Falana is confused here.
the constitution doesn't say you must win it but you must get 25% there.

FCT is not a state that's why we have only 36 States and capitals

Think about it from this angle.
Assume a very well loved candidate from FCT decided to run for president.
Even if he woefully lost the total election, he will most likely win the FCT with others not getting 25% just as OBI won Enugu.
Do you think INEC will deny the overall winner just because of FCT

Ahuitzotl:
Since 1999 there has not been a precedent to lay reference on thus Falana has no justification to interprete anything except his own opinion, we leave this to the Supreme Court for interpretation....

Exactly. You can take Tinubu to court after INEC declares him winner very soon.
But nothing stops his impending victory

Treadway:
very sure

I ask again, Are you sure?

https://www.nairaland.com/7589922/25-fct-not-requirement-emerge

AroleOduduwa2:


Why haven't they declared him the next President? The FCT is not a state, and the law requires you to have at least 25% after having the majority of votes and meeting the 25% in at least two-thirds of the country.

Because vote collation isn't over

Treadway:
what you typed now is inaccurate. We don't say that. We say 36 states and the FCT

36 states including FCT is different from 36 states and the FCT

Are you sure
