Tflex01:
I know you are saying this from the place of deep pain.

You call them cowards and slaves yet since the return of Democracy in 1999:
1999-2007 (President)
2015-2023 (Vice President)
2023 and beyond... (President)

Have you ever seen any Kwankwaso supporters or northerners in general insulting the Yorubas the way you headless mob do??

Try and understand that Yorubas won't go into unnecessary fight with the North just to please you ingrates.

Will you continue to watch until Nigeria collapse on you? Would it not be ideal to immediately and repeatedly call your followers to order that they should wait for the court judgement?

Draggun:
Not at all, it's your name that will be written and you will definitely have no idea where you'd go because death is the end of it all.

Once you are dead, there will be nothing left of you except the memories you'd live behind but people will eventually move on and forget about you.

Postelection Statement on Nigeria Elections, March 1, 1999
Feb. 28, 1999




Conduct of the Election
We noted many positive elements of the election process, including the peaceful conduct of the balloting and the pre-election campaign, the general lack of intimidation of voters, and the thorough and fair coverage by the Nigerian media. In addition, in many locations the voting process followed INEC procedures. We also wish to commend many INEC officials, party agents, security officers, and local government officials who helped to ensure proper conduct of the elections in these localities. Millions of Nigerian voters also showed patience and commitment in following procedures and taking the time to cast ballots.

Although there were many positive features of the presidential election, members of the delegation also observed a number of serious malpractices in certain places. These included:

Inflated vote returns – At polling sites in at least nine states, particularly in the South-South zone, we observed turnout that was sharply lower than that reported at a statewide level. In general, our observers estimated participation averaging twenty percent at the polling stations we visited. We also observed a distressingly low participation of women voters in many areas. In some places, the reported figures appeared to be so inflated that it was impossible to ascertain who actually won the election in that area.

Ballot Box Stuffing – Several observers witnessed instances of ballot box stuffing, including cases of ballots marked by the same persons' fingerprint, or neatly stacked in sequential order inside the boxes.

Altered results – In many instances, observers recorded low numbers of accredited voters or few voters at polling stations, sometimes less than 10 percent of those registered. During the counting and/or collation processes, later in the day, however, they found that these same polling stations, or adjacent polling stations, reported considerably higher numbers of voters, sometimes 100 percent. Usually, the voters in these polling stations were entirely for a single party. In several wards, we noted that a few polling units with extremely high returns could determine the outcome for the entire ward. Observers saw apparent instances where inflated tally sheets were substituted for the original sheets at counting centers. At many polling stations where we witnessed irregularities, it appeared that party agents and/or polling officials were involved in malpractice.

Disenfranchisement of voters – Observers noted some wards where voters were denied their opportunity to vote because ballots were delivered at the end of polling and in insufficient numbers.

– Another matter of concern was inconsistent application of INEC procedures. These included: the lack or non-use of indelible ink at many polling stations, failure to ensure ballot secrecy, late poll openings, and a failure to adhere to a separate accreditation process. This was seen in most areas. However, the delegation made a clear distinction between those procedural difficulties that did not appear to have an adverse effect on the conduct of this election, and those malpractices which clearly distorted the poll results in some localities.

Resolving Electoral Disputes
While we witnessed a number of abuses, the delegation has no systematic evidence indicating that these abuses would have affected the overall outcome of the election. Nevertheless these abuses may have substantially compromised the integrity of the process in the areas where they occurred. We would hope that any credible and documented allegations of electoral violations will be investigated by the appropriate authorities.

Omo, I was born into a strict Anglican home. My parents are members of the Parish Church Council (PCC) so we were brought up in the way of the Lord.

As I grew older, I realised there were loopholes in the way of the Lord so I had to leave for my sanity and I have known peace.

When I hear people blame spiritual forces for their misfortune, I just laugh at them. I no dey blame any forces for my misfortune, I just know say life no be bed of roses so e no go sweet always.

I realised that in life, there will be good and bad times.
