He is also disadvantaged with the black votes

Minority votes = (Black, latino, Hispanics)

evegran:
I hope he doesn't win.

He's racist, inconsiderate and clearly doesn't understand how the world works. 0_o

He is not going to win

The maths don't add up

He needs to win Pennsylvania, florida, ohio, Michigan to make the electoral map turn red

He has already maligned the African American population (Pennsylvania, Michigan)
He has already maligned the Latin Americans (Florida). Hilary cleverly decided on Kaine who is fluent in spanish to enable them lock the Hispanic votes
The educated white folks won't necessarily vote for him since they can see through his idiotic rhetoric (Pennslvania)
The has polarized his own party and even the current Governor of Ohio didn't attend their convention and isn't going to vote for him (Ohio)

Michael bloomberg who was once a republican with a large following has endorsed Hilary and will be speaking at the Democratic convention on Wednesday

Hilary has Bill who is still well loved, Barack who has performed tremendously well (The stats/facts suggest he has) backing her

How is trump going to win?

Americans aren't fickle minded

To me, disenfranchising all voters from a troubled region because of action of a handful of political thugs will throw up some legal issue. The constitution wont support that.

Embracing electronic voting, as has been proved recently, will always contribute to not concluding an election as scheduled. Many elections will run into the next day.

In my opinion, holding general election region-wise will solve most of our problems if not all.

I know it isn't currently allowed in the constitution but he (Prof Yakubu) ought to be lobbying the legislooters to change the freaking laws to reflect the country's current economic situation. We simply can't afford more bloodshed and stretched public services because of few cancelled elections at certain wards or LG's.

Nothing wrong with allowing result of an election with participation of at least 70%
So the 70% will be the computed baseline when they aggregate up to council, LGA or State level.

It can even be based on hard numbers (Total votes against expected participation derived from registered voters and PVC collection) rather than % based on ward sizes


Bottom line is, we have to try different things to move this country forward

DropShot:
The challenges are very unlikely to go away in the next ten years. It's even wrong the way our elections are scheduled considering the population size and logistics required to meet up with requirement. It's very unlikely that an election (especially the general election) can start and conclude in one day, yet we expect that to be the case without adequate provision.

My position is, given a situation where results are written and compare that to having an election declared inconclusive, I will prefer the later.

How about disenfranchising voters from troubled spots to serve as a deterrent to would be riggers?
How about they embrace electronic voting?

We can't keep doing the same things and expect different results

Bro, the country isn't looking good and you know it. We had better start telling ourselves the cold hard truth. Anything to resist the removal of Buhari come 2019 would be greeted with a revolution to end this country once and for all.

Did you read his reply regarding the torture of Tompolo's father? No matter the crime of Tompolo, the old man shouldn't be subjected to such an undesirable treatment. We are men and we should imagine ourselves at old age in the shoes of Tompolo's father.

Now, look at what he wants us to accept as norm? Just look at the topic of his thread. With all due respect, I too supported Buhari but it does not give me the right to neglect the sufferings of others just because I am not affected or because I am privileged.

Bro, even if my blood brother was the president of this country, at this stage, I will tell him to his face that he is messing up and that is what every true citizens must uphold!

Ain't nobody denying the simple fact that Nigeria is currently undergoing tough economic realities.
You can argue it was always going to happen since we simply didn't save for rainy days.

It's simply idiotic to attribute the current economic problems to the current leadership when it's obvious our past leaders lack foresight

Also, i absolutely do not support law enforcement officers taking revenge on helpless members of Tompolo's family just because they can. However, how far are we sure that's about the authenticity of his claims when propaganda seems to be the order of the day?

DropShot:
Successfully concluding an election is not solely dependent on INEC.

The security outfits have more and bigger role to play than INEC.

The question is, have we always experienced the flaws I listed above? The answer is "yes". And have results always been declared when they occurred? Again, yes. And lastly, should those elections have been declared "conclusive" with all the flaws? The answer to me should be "No".

You are simply saying it's okay to be mediocre albeit with a slight improvement in final process of the electoral end-to-end process

If the challenges are historical then they ought to have mitigated against them simplez

ganisucks:
Sorry, but it is Trump who has been selected. The way to tell which candidate is likely to win, is to check which candidate has more media attention, irrespective of if it is postive or negative

Politics is a game of numbers. Demographics and historical trend plays a large role in deciding elections.

Trump was always going to get a bounce immediately after their convention so it isn't unexpected

@OP
I don't think you can spin inconclusive elections in any positive light since it seems to be a trend rather than anomalies.

Inconclusive elections simply points to Prof Yakubu's below par performance as far as elections are concerned.

The problems you listed are known so why aren't they mitigating against them since it's unfortunately reoccurring across the country?

It's even more annoying that they are happening when finance is somewhat lean with a great need for efficiency savings whilst being effective in processes and all.

He needs to Up his game!!!

2sexynet:
You are a disgrace if I should speak. I can't imagine how you will turn a blind eye while the country sinks. I await when buhari will be kicked out of office in 2019 and if he dares retaliate, you passingshop or any supporter of this regime should say goodbye to NIGERIA for good!

What on earth is wrong with you for crying out loud?

You basically ignored the opinion as posted and proceeded to regurgitate your usual gibberish

If you have no meaningful contribution to the topic then get stepping

coolslim:
I think Trump stands a better chance .World security challenges has made it easy for him.America wants to be sure they can freely hangout without being attacked. - that's what trump is offering.Believe it or not more Americans are buying !

Stand a chance, how?

He is already disadvantaged with the electoral college map

He is always going to be disadvantaged with popular votes

He is disadvantaged with the minority votes

He is disadvantaged with the educated white votes

He is disadvantaged with the women votes

DONALD TRUMP LEADING US PRESIDENTIAL POLE.
Donald Trump comes out of his convention ahead of Hillary Clinton in the race for the White House, topping her 44% to 39% in a four-way matchup including Gary Johnson (9%) and Jill Stein (3%) and by three points in a two-way head-to-head, 48% to 45%. That latter finding represents a 6-point convention bounce for Trump, which are traditionally measured in two-way matchups.

fighting a lost battle So much for jaybee's promise for spa.

What happened to Jaybee's promise?

The SPA offer came with the condition that it had to be paid directly to the beauty center so as to ensure it's used for the intended purpose.

The offer didn't even come with a cost restriction and it's still open so what you on about?

Una wey dey disturb me by 5:00am, nko? Anyways I don convert their noise to alarm

Both religion are culpable of that nuisance act

I once had and heated conversation around 5am with an idiot preaching salvation and threatening hell fire for those that didn't give their life to Christ. I was ready to have him arrested for disturbing the peace of residents

This is Nigeria, we have very few credible insurance coys, out of every 10 cars, prob just one has an insurance policy. Does that make em all idiots or they are just tryna avoid being swindled??

http://www.insurancequotes.ng/car-insurance-in-nigeria-how-to-get-a-genuine-policy/

All my friends do comprehensive Insurance so that 1 in 10 stats might be right but there is certainly some level of confidence in that industry.

mimzy:
cc jaybee3

a car is just a liability esp in Nigeria where we do not take insurance policies seriously

Only an idiot will spend millions buying a depreciating asset and not insure it

Where is it located in IB?

kayjasper:
The mileage is 69k.

I would love to deal with you sir.... But its all about price.

The value is top notch.

Barely driven, just occupying space and collecting maintenance fees every now and then!!

Believe me it's the best price u can get for the quality around.

A little bird told me you will fall in love real soon..... With this ride!!! (in your garage)

last price?

Mynd44:
But then uncle Jaybee3 can give more insight

Mynd44:
It does not. Consider the tunnel a dam and the water "bridge" as the overflow. Get it?

The depth of the river isn't that deep to allow for such construction

They've simply created a tunnel and cleverly directed the flow of water through the beautiful demarcation

It's really no biggie since it isn't dealing with varying external forces

Yorubas are never stable. Especially in the matters of faith.

If you ask me, i would categorically assert that only someone with an unstable mindset will make such ridiculous assertion that has no scientific backing whatsoever

UjSizzle:
She's probably already paid na

Should i wrap your own red Carrera?

UjSizzle:

Good luck

Genea:
yes dey do but its not d straight I want to brk up with u, some can just send u a text while others tell u in person... I know others would prefer the drift apart scenarios

I think it's heart wrenching to formally break up with someone sha

It's probably best to drift apart except the reason for the break up was very bad
