Nothing good comes easy!

If Nigerian universities want to compete, they must be autonomous, and students must pay their fair share


Nigerians are the only class of people who want their country to overtake the US, UK and Canada, but not ready to pay their fair share like citizens of those countries.

LesbianBoy:
I put that there and I know people like you will notice and quote me. Anyway, nigeria is a joke. Someone that was clearly unpopular and didn't win an election and failed to satisfy the constitution was sworn in by a judge with that same constitution. That's why I said it will take a miracle. It doesn't mean that peter obi doesn't have a case

LesbianBoy:
If miraculously peter obi wins in court, you will see how the country will turn around. You will see real change.

After finding out the method used for the judgement on the election tribunal that gave victory to Oyetola over Adeleke, I would say it is a recipe for disaster, the method applied was cancelling all the votes of a polling unit because of over voting in that particular polling unit.


The questions I ask are:

1. As it happened that there were over voting in various polling units in the Osun election, what if each opposition connives to perpetrate over voting in polling units in each opposition strong holds?

2. What then is the use for BVAS in over voting if after the BVAS is able to identify the number of over votes only to end up cancelling all votes(valid) and over votes(invalid) ? That is like throwing away a baby with the bath water.

3. If there is an election tribunal like this and a rerun takes place, what if the same over voting keeps occurring over and over, would they keep repeating the election tribunal process and back to rerun again?

In my opinion, the law is just an error or a purposeful scheme to rig an election using what I call reverse voting
Just simply tamper with your opposition strong holds and invalidate their votes, So we might be having a case where a carefully selected and protected minority will determine winners of an election instead of the majority carrying the votes.


Implications:

1. It will make elections become very dirty because politicians will be all about scheming to invalidate votes in opposition strong holds.

2. It will make the voters lose confidence in the electoral process, because a voter will not be sure if his vote will be invalidated or not by someone else scheming with a politician in his/her polling unit.

3. It will make voters wear out easily and may cause voter apathy when you have reruns after stressful elections, thereby reducing voters turn-up in reruns.

4. It may not reflect the true will of the people and also reduce the total number of voter participation, just like the Osun election tribunal, the total number of votes cast for both PDP and APC after the cancellation doesn't reflect the true will of the people to declare Oyetola the winner.

5. Elections will cost more because of Tribunal, reruns and time wasting.

6. It could lead to anarchy and total chaos, like in some volatile states in the north where they riot over political results, just imagine after election and INEC says they have cancelled over 20,000 polling units across the north which were all stronghold of a particular candidate, because of over voting of less than 2000 voters, imagine what will happen in the aftermath of such news.

Solution:

In situations of over voting, Why not just deduct the invalid votes(over votes) and count the rest, the BVAS already identifies the number of over votes(invalid votes), doing so, INEC will avoid a lot of election tribunals, scheming by politicians, reduce cost of doing reruns, make more accurate results, increase voters confidence, reduce time wasting, reflect the true will of the people and avoid anarchy.

Then where will you see the fuel to buy when you have to rush out by evening time to attend an urgent matter or an emergency and your car or cab you boarded runs out of fuel?
Where will fire trucks,hospital emergency vans or other emergency vehicles have the fuel to take emergency cases to a referred facility or when a woman in labour has to be rushed to the hospital and there is no vehicle in sight or the one that is available has very little fuel and not sure of it being enough to take her to the hospital? It’s clear you do not understand the policies. It was only meant for stations on the major highways. Stations with the metropolis and inner routes aren’t affected by the rule.
The same utterly stupendous and mentally deranged reason they gave,to avoid long queues,would even play out more with this 9am-4pm utter crap because most transport owners knowing that limited time will all be queueing up to be in the queue during that same period.
Many people don't even know that the same stiffled economic growth caused by lack of electricity is also made worse by almost all filling stations in Nigeria closing by 8pm or max 10pm.
If half of the fuel stations in Nigeria or even 1/4 are open for 24 hours the growth to the economy and direct/indirect employment that will cause will be enormous.
But one imp comes up with a stone aged 9am-4pm idea,and some people even see merit in it!
Some of you have sawdust for what you call a brain!!

I discovered something while following the campaign train of major candidates. Tinubu though respected by some section of south west, is never loved. This is sharp contrast to Obi and to a lesser degree with Atiku. Tinubu does not evoke any form of love among the people of south west. This will be his greatest albatross.
