PoliticsRe: What Exactly Did The Electoral-Act-2022 Say About The Election Results.?? by Karnice600: 3:35am On Mar 03, 2023
BluntCrazeMan:
WHAT EXACTLY DID THE ELECTORAL ACT SAY ABOUT THE ELECTION RESULTS.??

***(This piece might be very long, but then, if you really need more insight about the electronic transmission wahalla, and what the Electoral Act really says about it, then you have to try and read through to the end..)


I am going to be dropping the quotes, with little comments after them.



For those that would argue that the INEC Guidelines are not recognised by the Electoral Act.., the Section-148 had provided answers to that argument.

Even though the INEC Guidelines should not override the Electoral Act,, but then, wherever the Electoral Act give powers to the “Commission”, then the words that are contained inside the “INEC Guidelines” and “Manuals” would become the Authentic Law with respect to those sections where the Electoral Act gave powers to the Commission..




Refer back to Section-148..
The “INEC Guidelines” fully prescribed the manner for the “Transmission” of the results. Inside the INEC Guidelines, the INEC made it very clear that they developed a system known as the “Collation Support and Result Verification System” (CSRVS), in order facilitate the “TRANSMISSION” of Results and Accreditation Data.


It should be made very clear at this point; that the Online Results-Viewing Portal (IREV) is just the platform for the public to view the supposed Polling-Units Results that were uploaded to the online viewing portal,, AND NOT THE REQUIRED PLATFORM WHICH THE INEC DEDICATED FOR THE ELECTRONIC TRANSMISSION AND COLLATION AND VERIFICATION OF RESULTS, AS POINTED OUT INSIDE THE ELECTORAL ACT.

The platform for the E-transmission and E-collation as required by the Electoral Act is the CSRVS, and not really the IREV.





The Commission, as referred to in this Act, is the INEC.

Refer back to Section-148..
The INEC fully prescribed the manner for the “Transfer” of the results (including the “transfer” of the total number of accredited voters) inside the INEC Guidelines.




Take note of the word “Deliver” in the Section-62(1); which is totally different from the word “Transfer” which was used in Section-60(5)..

***(This might be the ONLY part of the Electoral Act which the INEC-Chairman read, and believed that the Electoral Act provided for ONLY the Manual Delivery of the Results)..

Also note that the Electoral Act also didn't expressly dictate the exact methods of collation to be deployed.
But then, no matter the method of Collation used,, Section-64 should be checks-and-balances tool which must be applied.
And there is a strong penalty for violating Section-64.



NOW, LET US TAKE A GOOD LOOK AT SECTION-64..


A result -- According to Section-64(9) -- is regarded as “False Result” if it didn't follow the procedures specified in Section-64(6)-(a-to-d).. -- which is, Electronic Transmission and Collation, and Verification.




Going by Section-65(1):
It simply means that the returning officer can upturn the decisions of the Presiding Officer, or those of the collation officers if -- within the review period -- there were errors which the returning officer had corrected.












I PURPOSELY DID NOT DROP ANY QUOTES FROM THE “INEC GUIDELINES”..
SO THAT WE WON'T CONFUSE OURSELVES..

ALL THE QUOTES WHICH I HAVE DROPPED HERE ARE ALL QUOTED ENTIRELY FROM THE ELECTORAL ACT OF 2022.
Nigger, ask yourself if all these jargons makes sense to an average Nigerian who is pained by leadership failures.
The whites will always stay ahead,because they make laws and follow it through for collective progress and development, rather than for defending deficiencies and mediocrity.

INEC did something similar in 2019 presidential elections,rigging it in APC’s favor,alleging that no result was uploaded to the server they were allocated millions of Naira to set up for ensuring credibility, during the electoral process. Today its still the same.

You spoke to the masses in lay man’s terms and assured them of credibility at all cost,by utilizing special electronic device to guarantee that.
You failed to do that eventually, evading transparancy as expected and agreed, now your are defending your failure with the electoral act.
Thats how we run politics here in Nigeria- detrimental to the growth of our system.

I watched the offhand look Mamoud wore on his face, ignoring Dino and other’s call that electronic results be uploaded as stated by INEC earlier. If the people mattered to Mamoud,he would have been very concerned about raising people’s doubt.

The law was made for the people, not vice versa. If the people keep getting bitterness and uncertainties from the implementation the law, then that system is messed up.

They always come up with legal jargons, when they want to shut off the average man who’s always victim of their failures, to defend compromising positions, especially with monetary benefits involved.

The elctoral laws are absolutely useless if they can‘t be utilized to guarantee transparency and people’s trust in INEC as an impartial, independent entity.
Keyamo has all of these in his head but is still a SAN approved idiot.

Simplicity is always beautiful.

Hey, sorry I don’t quite understand what you’re getting at especially about ‘perceived migration.’ Can you clarify?


‘perceived migration.’



'perceived reason.' -The reason the owners of the country think you're there. Nigeriens are widely believed to have come into Nigeria to escape poverty in their land. Lebanese, for running factories. Chinese- factories, construction and loan sharks.
You barely see a man leaving Canada to Ghana or Nigeria, for high paying jobs.
At the end everyone migrates, but your best shot at comparing one to another in this case, is what I stated ealier.

Foreign AffairsRe: Russia Confronted With Whole Empire Of Diverse Enemies, Iran Advances Forward by Karnice600: 4:36am On Feb 26, 2023
History repeats itself, Russia’s Security Council Deputy Chairman said

History repeats itself and Russia is again confronted with an empire of diverse enemies 80 years after the victory in the Battle of Stalingrad, Russia’s Security Council Deputy Chairman Dmitry Medvedev said in an article, Year of Defending Fatherland, published in the National Defense magazine on Saturday.

"A year after the start of the special military operation, we celebrated yet another very important date in our history in February 2023: the 80th anniversary of the Soviet people’s victory in the Battle of Stalingrad - the chief battle of the 20th century, after which the final rout of the Hitlerite armies became inevitable," Medvedev said.

"History repeats itself. We are again confronted actually with a whole empire of diverse enemies: Ukrainian and European Neo-Nazis, the United States, other Anglo-Saxons and their minions (about half a hundred of countries)," he said.

The enemies have set the task of wiping Russia off from the face of the earth but their attempts will fail, the security official stressed.

"We are stronger and this is also obvious now. And the so-called ‘Western world’ is just a small part of the international community, about 15% of the planet’s population. A rich, over-satiated but still a minority," he added.

The past year of the special military operation in Ukraine has taught the Russians many things and consolidated the country’s citizens in the fight against the common enemy and "has finally helped get rid of the illusions about the ‘democratic’ West whose hypocrisy and frenzied Russophobia have gone beyond all thinkable limits," Medvedev pointed out.

What Russia has gained over that year is its firm confidence in its own strength and in its victory, he said.

Iran Reveals Newly Developed Long-Range Missile With Mach 13 Top Speed


Iran says it has developed a long-range hypersonic missile capable of reaching any of the US regional military bases in the area.
Iran has developed a missile capable of hitting targets at a distance of 1,025 miles (1,650 kilometers), the commander of the Aerospace Division of Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps Amir-Ali Hajizadeh has detailed.
Hajizadeh said that by using the missile, Iran is “now capable of targeting American aircraft carriers at a 2,000-kilometer (1242-miles) distance.” The Iranian officials further claimed the missile could have been developed with a longer range but Iran capped it “out of respect for the Europeans.”

This is not the first time Iran has said it developed a hypersonic missile. In November 2022, Iran revealed it created its first national hypersonic missile ballistic missile, although the US State Department casted doubt on those claims at the time.
Iran says its missile program is necessary as a deterrent, something Hajizadeh echoed during his announcement.

“If we fail to be strong, the enemy will bring the war inside Iran," he urged after referencing the United States. "We should be very careful in order to be able to meet the security needs of our dear nation and country."

The United States, he said, benefits from a destabilized Middle East and said it was the root cause of conflicts around the globe, specifically mentioning the situations in Ukraine and Taiwan.
Thanks to the missile program, according to Hajizadeh, Iran is now capable of striking US regional bases “whenever the need arises.”

The true capabilities of the missile won’t be known until a video of a live test is released, but Iran claims its new missile is capable of reaching Mach 12-13 (12 to 13 times the speed of sound) and can avoid missile defense systems thanks in part to a built-in engine that increases the missile’s maneuverability when it approaches its target.
By comparison, the newest American prototype hypersonic missile, the AGM-183A, has a claimed top speed of Mach 20 but has never reached even Mach 6 in testing. It has a range of roughly 994 miles (1600 kilometers
“I express confidently that the enemies will not be capable of developing a similar missile over many upcoming decades,” Hajizadeh said, who also added that the missile was now in the Islamic Revolutionary Guards’ arsenal.

I’m not understanding why people keep saying this. Africans/Nigerians are not the first people to emigrate to other countries, in fact they’re the last. Nigerians/Africans only started voluntarily migrating in large numbers since the 1980’s/1990’s. Whereas the Irish, Germans, English, Italians, Poles, Chinese, Indians, Hispanics have been migrating for centuries even since the 1600’s and before.
Yes Nigerians/Africans should fix their countries, but what about all the other groups of Whites, Asians, Arabs and Hispanics that have been migrating to America and Europe. They came from poor countries when they emigrated too. Most immigrants by the way are Asians not Africans.

America and Canada are lands of immigrants, with the Native Americans being the only people indigenous there. Africans only make less than 2% of the populations
Migration is a common phenomenon. Perceived reason for migration is what bears the weightiest significance. Even a refugee in a foreign state is a migrant. The 'perceived reason', could automatically rate or limit your state or conditions of engagement in that location. This sometimes could reflect in your visa or permit you acquire. It could also be illegal, like some folks crossing the mediterranean.
If you're going to talk about migration, talk about it in the light of 'perceived reasons' in any specific situation.

This is a nice thread but unfortunately, it was created by a dunce.

Russia has economists besides having current trading partners like India, Iran , China.., plus her rich natural resources. That's why she appears 'unshaken'.

But why are most pregnant women fleeing the country for the other side of the world?
You can't seat here in Nigeria, shouting propaganda, and know about how Russia is faring, better than the young Russian women seeking for refuge elsewhere.

The young men were fleeing because of forced conscription. No wahala. So ask yourself as a putard, are pregnant women also part of the conscripts? Why are they running away?

A pregnant woman carries a seed. In that seed is her legacy and a future.
Mary fled from Herod to preserve her seed. So it's not a new Phenomenon. Pregnant women do this when the future of their seed is threatened in their current location. They do it when they sense a huge uncertainty lying ahead of their land.
Currently there is no war in Russia. The popular narrative is that what's going on in Ukraine is a 'special military operation', but yet the pregnant women feel unsafe.
If there's no war going on in Russia, then there's something else going on, that's evident and that should be the sanctions biting. No two ways. Russia has a thick skin. Yeah, she does. But the future Is far from promising. So babies need to be safe elsewhere.
I don't expect you putin's idiots here to understand that some sanctions are strategic with long term damaging effects. You all believe in seeing it now or believe it doesn't exist.
I know blame una sha.
That's how far the RAM for una brain fit process reasoning.

No Nigerian should take sides in this war.

Both Russia and Ukraine have a point. Ukraine does not want to be Russia's slave, and at the same time, Russia does not want to be surrounded by enemies for nothing.

If you back Putin, then you should also go and apologise to Bush and all past American presidents who bombed nations and killed people, and also messed up a lot of countries. You cannot defend Russian imperialism and attack America when it does the same. Both are wrong.

If you back Ukraine, then you should also know that Russia has suffered so many invasions with people killed over the years...because they did not secure their borders, or trusted nations too easily. There is no such thing as a good country.

Which leads to my final point. All of you backing NATO or Russia, or china, or Iran, or USA or whatever. If it is in Russia, or Ukraine's best interest that your village be bombed, they will do it with no apologies. That is the way of humans, and that is why you should not back any country in any war. Just siddon look, memorize, and in fifty years time you will be telling your great grandchild stories for his assignment on 'The wars of 2022'

I used to back USA , never again. If countries cannot see why they should not be ruled by dictatorships, then leave them be. USA is still paying for invading other nations years ago. Russia too is also paying, and will pay heavily for Ukraine. At the end of the day, countries should not attack other countries at all.

So, don't take anybody's side. Russia and Ukraine are right, and at the same time wrong.

EducationRe: Is This Not Too Much Sex Education For Kids? by Karnice600: 5:25am On Feb 23, 2023
shantti:
I know with the advent of the wokeness culture, what makes Africa African is beginning to be shoved aside. Africa used to have values and norms which they upholds to the highest level. Sex education didn't used to be for children and it worked so fine.

Our contemporary society maybe trying to educate children on matters surrounding sex but I think they are going to far, it should be a very gradual step, with more knowledge added at different stages in life. Not just exposing everything in two shakes of a dog's tail.

I came across this, do u all think it's too heavy for kids
We should really bless the Lord for Disney. She has been in the business of keeping the kids' minds busy with myths and fairytales for a good significant period of their lives.
Snow White, Beauty & The Beast, Cinderella, Pocahontas, Sleeping Beauty, Rapunzel...

The idea is to create an illusionary world that 'falsely' describe and explain the vices and virtues of the real world they're in, in a way they can relate with, such that innocence is preserved.

The moment you start seeing them get bored with fairytales, asking 'soul-piercing' questions, wanting to view real movies than animations or even soap operas, then you'll need a whole new script for them.

Sexual awareness, not sex education (in my words and opinion), can then be pushed gradually to a whole new level. This doesn't necessarilly have to be when signs of puberty are beginning to show. It has to do more with the mind. You could have a 12 year old mind, boxed in a 7 year old body. Yeah. It's different for different kids. One cap doesn't fit all...
There's so much more. I'm just too tired to type.

And please,
Don't watch soap with the kids.

Foreign AffairsNorth Korea In Critical Food Crisis- Experts. by Karnice600(op): 2:55pm On Feb 22, 2023
North Korea is experiencing a critical food crisis, experts say.

The country is no stranger to chronic food shortages, but border controls, poor weather and sanctions have worsened the situation in recent years.

Top officials are expected to meet at the end of February to discuss a "fundamental change" to agriculture policy, state media has said.

This is a "very important and urgent task" amid "pressing" farming issues, news aggregator KCNA Watch reported.

The news comes as Pyongyang continues its displays of military might.

One state newspaper has likened using foreign aid to "poisoned candy". On Wednesday, Rondong Sinmun wrote that "imperialists" used aid as a "trap to plunder and subjugate" recipient countries.

South Korea's unification ministry has reportedly also sounded the alarm on the food shortages and asked the World Food Programme (WFP) for help.

Satellite imagery from South Korean authorities shows that the North produced 180,000 tonnes less food in 2022 than in 2021.

In June, the WFP raised concerns that extreme weather conditions like drought and flooding could reduce production of both winter and spring crops. State media also reported late last year that the country was experiencing its "second worst" drought on record.

As forecasted, food prices have risen this year amid poor harvests and people have been turning to inexpensive alternatives, said Benjamin Katzeff Silberstein, who works with North Korea-centred publication 38North.org.

The price of corn has risen 20% at the start of 2023, with growing demand for the less preferred - compared to rice - but more affordable staple, reported Rimjin-gang, a North Korean magazine based in Japan.

"If people are buying more corn it means food overall is getting more expensive, and staple foods like rice in particular," Mr Silberstein said. A kilogram of the crop now costs about 3,400 North Korean won (£3.10; $3.80).

North Korea is ranked one of the poorest countries in the world. Recent estimates are scarce, but CIA World Factbook estimates its gross domestic product per capita to be around $1,700 in 2015.

N Korea slams South's 'absurd' offer of aid
Why doesn't North Korea have enough food?
That said, the actual situation and numbers are unclear, given North Korea's opaque economy.

"Due to North Korea's strict Covid border measures on goods and people, there's no way for any outsiders to go into the country and check for themselves what the situation is," said James Fretwell, an analyst at NK News.

People take part in an annual rice planting event in Nampho City in Chongsan-ri, near Nampho on May 12, 2019

These measures have also made it difficult for organisations outside North Korea to send help in times of crisis, he added.

North Korea has also strictly restricted cross-border trade and traffic since January 2020.

Sokeel Park, South Korea country director in non-profit Liberty in North Korea , described the regime's response to the pandemic as "extreme and paranoid".

Mr Park, whose organisation helps resettle North Korean refugees in South Korea or the US, said the supply of basic necessities in the North has been dwindling since the start of the pandemic. Link has heard multiple credible reports of people starving to death, Mr Park said.

The country has also seen a significant decline in humanitarian aid from the international community - the UN Office for the Co-ordination of Humanitarian Affairs said North Korea received $2.3m (£1.9m) from international organisations and other agencies last year, down from $14m in 2021.

While this may be a result of prolonged border closures, some relief workers told the BBC that international sanctions, which have tightened in response to North Korea's military provocations, have also hindered the delivery of humanitarian supplies.

Still, there are some signs that cross-border economic activity is starting again. Nikkei Asia reported last week that some truck travel with China, which accounts for over 90% of North Korea's trade, has resumed.

But that does not necessarily mean standards of living will improve for ordinary North Koreans.


Much of North Korea's spending goes on the military - its latest missile launchers were displayed earlier in February

Mr Park said the regime has focused its resources on its missile prowess and propaganda, at high social costs. Pyongyang fired a record number of ballistic missiles last year - more than 70, including intercontinental ballistic missiles, or ICBMs, which can potentially reach the US mainland. Early this month, it showed off its largest-ever display of ICBMs at a military parade.

"The regime has acknowledged how hard things are for ordinary North Korean people, but continues to prioritise propaganda and pageantry for the Kim family, missile launches, and strict controls [on] the population," Mr Park added.

Experts worry that the situation on the ground will deteriorate further, leading to a famine as devastating as the one the country experienced in the mid-to-late 1990s, often known in official documents as the "Arduous March". Estimates put the number of deaths between 600,000 to a million.

"We don't seem to be near the levels of the 1990s famine," Mr Silberstein said. "But margins are razor thin. So even a slightly lessened supply of food could potentially have dire consequences."

During war times there are active combatants, and they also have reserve divisions. After active combatants have been killed or wonded in battles they bring in more men from the reserves units to replace them. If the war prolonged into a war of attrition and maneuver warfare voluntary recruitment would be welcomed, if the war gets more intense and there is a shortage of manpower from the active combatants, reserves units and voluntary units, then a compulsory conscription would be made throughout the nation.

From the above the Russians haven't even used up to 15% of their force, the Ukrainians are the ones doing compulsory conscription because since the beginning of the war men between the ages of 18 and 55 years old are not allowed to leave Ukraine.

Same here bro. And people need to learn that hatred doesn't win elections...the hatred towards this man is too much. Wetin he do them?
Define hatred.
There's a task at hand and people prefer better hands to handle it than others, and you call that hatred.
Nigeria can never catch up with the developed world, with a majority of minds like this.
It's not a curse. It's the sad truth.

I honestly would have loved an Igbo to be President, at least for equity and fairness, but Asiwaju has been around for too long to be denied this lifetime opportunity.
Igbos' time (not peter Obi) shall come, make them calm down and allow City boy lead us to prosperity.
E never clear for your eyes.

dey play... Turkey practises democracy? Leemao grin
Lol. I knew you would mention Turkey.
Turkey after WWII joined NATO in 1950s, after she joined the UN, showing a willingness to embrace liberalism and it's ideals. Turkey was and is, strategic geographically to NATO and to Russia then. The USSR had requested to have a military base in the Turkish straights for communist expansion. Turkey was more like a new convert to the Western front. The US had to block that by creating military bases in Turkey, out of bilateral relationship sparked by a treaty between Turkey and Greece to be protected by the US. You can look up President Truman's doctrine for insight on those.
Yes, Turkey had, always had a mix of democracy. She had always shown the her lust for democratic values and ideals, rather than communism, after the world war. That was all the US needed to peg NATO's pillars there. I must say her geographic advantage is a huge factor too. Recently Erdoghan has become a pain in the ass for the West, but hey, NATO needs that location as an edge. Turkey has become more autocratic and less democratic under Erdoghan though, but that doesn't rule them out. They have democratic structures and affiliations that they are commited to. Even though they strugle with it. But it's more about Erdoghan than Turkey as a nation. Just like Trump came and Merkel threw up. It's more about the leader now than her system. Turkey in NATO is a controversial topic.
Comrade, oya mention another country.

you don't understand. They tried joining NATO but US turned them down without any reason. It was there Russia realized US has made Russia an enemy of NATO to keep NATOs relevance flourishing because without any common enemy, NATO will die a natural death as no one is willing to fight wars or become an enemy of NATO.

So you understand why Russia is fighting this war. NATO and American imperialism seek to use Russia's close neighbors to get to Russia and breaking Russia into parts as an endgame to create the good atmosphere to stealing their oil 🛢️ like they did in Iraq and Syria and Libya.

Russia is too powerful to be defeated or crushed like Iraq otherwise America would've stepped in with boots on ground. The only thing keeping Americans at bay is Russia's military and nukes. US cannot risk fighting an enemy having almost equal brutal strength and mad abilities to strike back delivering devastating blows as well. They can't fight an ememy that could decimate their beautiful cities 😂 hence why they're using Ukraine as a pawn in the fight.


For those in doubt, kindly watch this video on this Facebook link below and hear things from the horse's mouth. You won't find this video easily on the net as they literally censored every legit news coming from Russia to keep the world away from knowing the truth behind Soviet/NATO and Russia's application to join NATO. US imperialism is a cancer to the world.

Look at all NATO states, can you find an undemocratic, authoritarian state amongst them?
Please if there's any, lets know.
NATO was set up to contain certain ideologies that saw Europe bleed from the grips of Hitler's claws.
USSR died a natural death. America was just a catalyst to that death process. Gorbachev knew the system was fast deteriorating and that communism was phasing out naturally, just like fax messages, in the dawn of emails and the internet.
Ukraine had always wanted to leave USSR. Many Soviet states hated that Union. It was like an expired, forced marriage. Russia had always enjoyed the privileges and glory of that Union as the capital, more than any other party involved.
Putin came up to revive it by force and began land grabbing like Chinwetalu Agu. That's where he's stuck now.
