True talk, slayer of Governor M.A Abubakar

joshjc:
oga Bauchi has always been an APC control state, right from the day's of ANPP

but Dogara has changed the system now for the last 6years

Mahsums:
Who sold this cheap lie to u?
Dogara is only influential is his tafawa-balewa/dass/bogoro constituency (with 80k+ registered voters) anywhere outside his constituency dogora is useless and he never brought APC in Bauchi.
We rejected gov MA Abubakar cos he's a real failure. Dude couldn't complete ordinary 4km township road
i wish ppl wit dt kerosene man as a gov did the same but they we blinded by a party

I'm in yelwa, go and ask how much Dogara gave to Kaura for his campaign expenses when PDP lunch its 2019 campaign in Bauchi, Bununu, Dogara constituent. And who has been fighting inec and apc and court case in abuja against giving bauchi similar treatment as to that of kano, then come and argue

only Dogara has the real politic influence in the state. Dogara was the one who brought apc to bauchi, he single handedly sponsored all its activities in the state and at last M.A became governor. Now he sponsored Kauran Bauchi, pdp, and he won defeating to former governor also.

Bauchi Rerun: PDP writes INEC, says no basis for supplementary elections

PDP National chairman, Uche Secondus.
The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has written to the Chairman of Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), Mahmood Yakubu, expressing its displeasure over its decision to conduct supplementary governorship election in Bauchi State.

According to a letter dated March 21, 2018 and signed by its National Chairman, Uche Secondus, the PDP said such decision contradicts provisions of the electoral act as well as the INEC guidelines for the conduct of elections.

A Federal High Court in Abuja on Tuesday ordered the INEC not to go ahead with its plan to collate, conclude and announce the results of Tafawa Balewa Local Government Area for the governorship election in Bauchi State held on March 9.

The judge, Inyang Ekwo, made the order based on an ex-parte application filed by the All Progressive Congress (APC) and the incumbent governor of Bauchi State, Mohammed Abubakar.

The restraining order is to last till the determination of the suit brought before the court by the two plaintiffs.




The APC and Bauchi Governor, Mohammed Abubakar, had prayed for an order of interim injunction restraining INEC from resuming, concluding or announcing the result of Tafawa Balewa Local Government Area of Bauchi State in respect of the governorship election.

The election was initially declared inconclusive by INEC due to irregularities in Tafawa Balewa local government.

INEC later announced it would go ahead with collating and completing the results sourced from backup result sheets, a move Mr Abubakar, who scored the second highest votes in results so far collated, rejected.

The governor wants supplementary polls to be conducted. On Monday, he met with President Muhammad Buhari and vowed to challenge INEC’s volte face in court.

In a copy of the letter available to PREMIUM TIMES, the party asked INEC to suspend the supplementary election pending the collation of results.




“It is important to note that rerun or supplementary election can only be ripe and determined upon conclusion of collation of all the results from the 20 local government areas in the state and the margin between the winner and runner up is known.

“This is the provision of the law as provided in the regulation and guidelines for the conduct of elections, specifically paragraphs 33 (a) and (e) and 34 (e).

“By the combined effects of the paragraphs, the commission shall wait to determine the margin of lead between the two leading candidates of the governorship election after collation of the overall results of the election before deciding to embark on the supplementary poll. Hence there is no basis for a supplementary election at the polling units cancelled.”

Mr Secondus demanded the “immediate suspension of the supplementary election” until collation of results from Tafawa Balewa has been concluded.

we all in bauchi we are solely behind Dogara. the only politician in bauchi that retired Two former governors and sitting governor. The only politician that sponsored Lauren Bauchi and won election in bauchi. Up DogRa .

chai! And Tafawa Balewa is under Dogara constituent and the governor once said "Dogara came from tiny minority and I don't need votes there to win the election, where they only have 80000 votes only, and the last time I won with a margin of over 300000. Believe we will retire Dogara from politics. " it seems from Premium time now reverse is the case.

this Dogara is a real politician; He won his ticket and now want to install pdp governor for Bauchi

check the last paragraph

Cabble4:
If this is true, I admire his courage.
The Lifeless one and his minions wouldn't care to shed blood or anything at their reach to fulfill their selfish interest.

stefanweeks:

Just to chip this in before you start the celebration........

the governor said Dogara came from tiny minority and he can still win even without votes from Dogara constituent, why did he wants Tafawa balewa result to be inconclusive? even for Tafawabalewa Pdp= 40,867 and apc 19,454

Yareema22:
Please stop spreading false news here,we are currently at the INEC headquarters in Bauchi awaiting the results from two local governments namely,Bauchi and Ganjuwa local governments respectively. Similarly,INEC ha cancelled the results from Tafawa-Balewa local government and some polling units within Bauchi metropolis.

What is happening is that,the wife of the governorship candidate of the PDP, announced to the public that her husband is the winner of the elections even before final results were collated, prompting wild jubilations by some PDP supporters. So I advice that you wait for the final results from INEC.

which inec office you dey...... While all have been said and done. Kogi man bye byd

this is it

Avedonn:
Not surprising because I expect PDP to win Kano and Bauchi. They could have even win Gombe if not because they gave their ticked to the unpopular candidate instead of the man people have been rooting for.

What I observe with northerners is they don't vote party but candidate. Unlike other regions.

I am from Bauchi forget, Presidential election was rigged in the north we didn't believe in card reader for president.

MyMouth:
Fear fear! This guy has lost already!

you want people to die like on 9/3/19? you are heartless

vendredi77:
even if the election was cancel and still carried out up to 10 times, Dogara will still win because his people can make lot of sacrifices for him , and out of the three local govrnt. only one are the minority Muslim, the two are well populated and die hard Christian.... so let him forget it...��

You said nothing but the truth. I am from Tafawa balewa

The Peoples Democratic Party in Kano State has rejected the presidential results for the state announced in Kano State by the Independent National Electoral Commission.

The party’s Agent at the collation centre, Alhaji Rabiu Sulaiman-Bichi, who is also the state PDP Chairman, alleged on Tuesday that the figures were inflated.

“We cannot accept such an inflated figures and that is our stand, so we will go back and analyse the issue to know the next line of action to take.

“As you can see, the presiding officers complained of lack of use of card readers during the voting exercise of the presidential and national assembly elections in the state coupled with over-voting.

“We shall look at the circumstances and provisions of the law and see what the law says so as to pursue our rights,” he said.

The News Agency of Nigeria reports that the PDP Chairman, however, signed and collected a copy of the result sheet.

APC supporters disenfranchised in Dogara's constituency--APC

By Najib Sani, Bauchi

Bauchi State chapter of the All Progressive Congress (APC) has reacted to the outcome of the National Assembly election held in Dass, Tafawa Balewa and Bogoro local governments federal constituency of the state on Saturday which declared the Speaker house of representatives Yakubu Dogara of the People's Democratic Party (PDP) winner.

Addressing newsmen yesterday, the state APC chairman Uba Ahmed Nana alleged that the election was allegedly marred by many irregularities such as disenfranchisement of All Progressive Congress (APC) members at polling units in Bogoro and Tafawa Balewa local governments by suspected PDP thugs.

He alleged that in most of the polling units where APC candidate was suspected to have highest votes, the speaker's supporters harassed and prevented people from voting.

Aside that, Abubakar accused the PDP of attacking APC agents at polling units in many places in the two local government areas with a view to forcing to compromise and alter results.

" PDP is scared of humiliating defeat by our candidate Honourable Kantana and they know that if that happened, the speaker Dogara would be embarrassed. So they engaged thugs to harrass and prevent voters believed to be in support of the APC candidate from casting their votes".

" The truth is that the constituents are fed up with Dogara's domination over the years without commensurate dividends of democracy. So the speaker's supporters resorted to all forms of electoral malpractices to make sure he is retained as representative of Dass, Tafawa Balewa and Bogoro constituency". He alleged.

Our correspondent reports that according to the results announced at the collation center in Zwall, Dogara won the election with 73, 000 votes as against the APC candidate Dalhatu Kantana who polled 50, 000 votes.

Election: Soldiers harass Journalists in Bauchi

It was nightmare for some journalists covering the Presidential and National Assembly election taking place today in Bauchi as armed soldiers along the Bauchi - Tafawa Balewa road harassed them in the course of carrying out their duties.

The nasty experience first started at Dass local government when a fierce looking officer, lieutenant Y Ahmed, stopped a correspondent chapel bus conveying journalists on election duty.

One of the journalists explained to him politely that they were journalists on election duty. This innocent introduction did not go well with the officer who barked 'park! park! as his subordinates joined the fray to querie the journalists.

"Are you more special than us? If you are on election duty so what? Park my friend. See my name. You want to see my name? Whoever you what to call, call,"

The reporters were taken aback by the sudden emotional outburst of the officer without any provocation.

What was amazing was that all the journalists were putting on the vests and p-caps givens by INEC to accredited journalists.

Since the officer kept ranting even subordinates brandished their guns, one of the journalists stated that if the Lieutenant would border to seek the identity of the people I'm the bus, he would discover that some are very senior and experienced journalists. This further infuriated became more livid, saying "because you are journalists you want us to come and bow down for you?, he retorted as he went about attending to some civilians inside J-4 bus that they had stopped.

It took the intervention of the Chairman of the Correspondent's Chapel, Mr Segun Awofadeji, who was leading the team, to calm the situation as after calmly explaining the mision as the Lieutenant became sober .

After few minutes of doing nothing, he eventually order the bus to proceed, but the damage is done as the journalists were unable to meet Speaker Yakubu Dogara cast his vote at his polling unit at the Gwaranga poling unit at 9: 45.

People are still in the queue but the inec official just announced "there is no ink". Lushi polling unit, yelwa Bauchi, Bauchi state
