The evil people behind all these heinous crimes must be exposed.
We read this was the exact method that was used in Ikorodu and some other tensed locations over a year ago on the oil bunkering militants that has been reigning terror throughout the time Jonathan was the president.
They all fled and never looked back since then.

majella4:
The Federal Government has assembled 1000-strong military force, comprising the army, air force, police and the civil defence to launch fierce attacks on the bandits terrorising the villages and towns of Zamfara State.

Following directives by President Muhammadu Buhari, the Nigerian Air Force (NAF) has begun the deployment of fighter aircraft to Katsina, the airport with the closest proximity to Zamfara State to make for immediate and effective response to the menace of the bandits.

This had not been possible in the past because there was no fuel depot facility in Katsina, but NAF has devised a way around the problem.

The President has also authorised the engagement by NAF, of advanced satellite surveillance technology to help in accurate detection of movement and locations of the bandits.

The government had to go to this extent because of the limitations of conventional surveillance, as the use of satellite technology could make the task of NAF less  problematic.

Following directives from the President, at the weekend, the Chief of Air Staff, Air Marshall Sadiq Abubakar, was in Gusau where he met the Deputy Governor of the State.

The Chief of Air Staff reiterated the President’s pledge that he would never abandon victims of attacks to their fate, reaffirming that security remains one of the cardinal pillars of his campaign promises and no leader would be happy to see his own citizens killed by criminal groups across the country.

It will be recalled that since his election, the President has kept faith with his promises to re-equip and motivate the country's military and other security services.

The army and other security services are now better equipped and motivated to face the challenges of their responsibilities.

The Presidency, therefore, appeals to all Nigerians to unite and speak with one voice on security issues and urges politicians to stop exploiting national security challenges.

Those praying for the President to fail in this effort can be likened to one stabbing oneself in the heart and celebrating about it.

In this regard, security should not be reduced to petty politics as doing so could only embolden the terrorists and other murderous gangs.

We therefore appeal to members of the Nigerian media to avoid unhelpful and deleterious sensationalism in the coverage of events that border on national security.

The media should under no circumstances make the bandits or terrorists feel like super stars because doing so could hurt all of us.

Terrorists seek to achieve maximum publicity and they do so by launching large scale attacks on soft targets and the media must resist every attempt to play into their hands unwittingly.

====> https://www.pulse.ng/news/local/in-ogun-5000-opc-members-armed-for-war-against-militants-id5336175.html


5000 members of the Reformed Oodua People’s Congress (ROPC) have converged in Ogun state to confront militants who have been causing havoc in the Arepo and Imushin communities.

Punch reports that the members of the group arrived the state in 100 buses, looking ready for battle.

Eyewitnesses say the OPC members, who came from Lagos and other parts of Ogun, carried all manner of charms and weapons.


A source who spoke to newsmen also said “They were over 5,000 and they filled the whole community. They carried all kinds of charms and a few of them even carried placards, protesting militant’s invasion of the South-West.

“They said they were ready to enter into the creeks to face the militants and kill them and all they needed was the permission of the traditional ruler. Some of them said they could transform to snakes and lions, once they get into the creeks.

“The traditional ruler, after thanking them for their concern, asked them to leave because he had not received authority from higher authorities to allow them fight the militants. He urged them to get approval from the government before doing anything in the community.”

The President of the group, Dare Adesope, also said “On July 19, we issued a 14-day ultimatum to the militants to end their activities in the South-West and we said if they didn’t leave, we will challenge them and defend our people. That ultimatum elapsed yesterday (Monday).

“The recent military action against the militants might have been influenced by our ultimatum, because prior to the release, the Federal Government didn’t do anything.

“We decided to go to the community in 107 buses and some cars, to show that the Reformed OPC is still on the ground and our aim is to protect the lives and property of everyone that is residing within our area of jurisdiction.

“Our silence all this while is not an act of cowardice. It is because we believe in dialogue before action. It is wrong for anyone to be kidnapping, raping, robbing and killing our people.

“We say no to that and we don’t want anything like that again in Yoruba land. After today, if we hear anything again in the area, we know what to do.”

A combined team of security forces bombarded the hideouts of the militants in the creeks of Arepo in Ogun state.

You are absolutely correct... it is a mixture of so many influences.

You may wish to see how PMB's Administration solved insecurity in Lagos, Ogun and Ondo axis
in 2016 using the Nigerian Airforce in the video and Weblinks.

Please let people [Nigerians] know that this is one of the achievements of PMB in the area of security.
Some people like OBJ and other ignorant politicians in the opposition have been saying
that insecurity grew worse under PMB, but in July/August 2016, PMB ordered airstrikes
on Ijaw criminal camps in the creeks of Lagos, Ogun and Ondo and the Airforce decimated those
bastards... this is what Goodluck Jonathan could NOT DO for the people of Lagos, Ogun and
Ondo. Even DSS officials who were sent to tackle the problem were all killed by those Ijaw
criminals.

The Nigerian Air Force (NAF) again today struck at criminal hideouts and camps harbouring pipeline vandals at AREPO and environs. The latest air strike is in continuation of the aerial bombardment commenced by the NAF on Thursday 28 July 2016 to rid the affected areas of pipeline vandals and other criminal elements.

The ongoing air operations is aimed at providing air support for the Joint Task Force recently set-up by the Defence Headquarters to dislodge pipeline vandals in the South West region of the Country in an operation codenamed OPERATION AWATSE.

There are strong indications based on analysis of the enclosed footage on Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance (ISR), as well as Strike and, Battle Damage Assessment (BDA) missions undertaken by NAF aircraft that the vandals have been sufficiently displaced from their current locations at AREPO while their criminal activities have also been heavily disrupted.

The NAF however is intensifying its ongoing air operations day and night to neutralise the remnants of the vandals who might have relocated deep inside the Mangrove Forest.

Recall that the NAF is at present operating in 4 zones across the country to tackle various forms of internal security challenges. They include insurgency in the North East; cattle rustling, kidnapping and armed robbery in the North West; militancy in the South-South; and pipeline vandalism in the South West.

The Chief of Air Staff, Air Marshal Sadiq Abubakar, has disclosed that bandits attacking Zamfara State and others are being funded by politicians.

He spoke in Bauchi weekend while commissioning Small Arms Shooting Range and personnel quarters at the Air Force Base.

“Some of these groups are being funded, supported and encouraged by certain unpatriotic Nigerians for self-centered political interests,” he said.

He said air operations in Zamfara and other places were being carefully organized, adding that personnel and assets would soon be deployed to support “Operation Sharan Daji”.

He said the NAF had deployed about 1,000 special forces and supported other security agencies against threats.

The Chief of Air Staff said 12 super aircraft were also expected to arrive from the United States.

Governor Mohammed Abubakar said the Bauchi said his administration was planning to hand over Lame Bura Forest to the Air force to establish an air range for its fighter aircraft pilots.

Thanks to the FG/PMB for approving this vital military mission which is going to be
similar to the massive/no-mercy Nigerian Air Force (NAF) air operations when they struck
at criminal hideouts and "camps" harbouring pipeline vandals at AREPO and environs. The
air strikes were in continuation of the aerial bombardment commenced by the NAF on
Thursday 28 July 2016 to rid the affected areas of pipeline vandals and other
criminal elements of over 1000 criminals of Ijaw origin who kidnapped people
for ransom [especially the Oba of Ojo Kingdom who is a first-class Oba
in Lagos State], robbed banks, vandalized pipelines in the creeks of Lagos, Ogun
and Ondo, killed severally people in communities - 40-70 people at a time!



The idiotic bandits in Zamfara who are mainly foreigners from Niger
Republic will be decimated by the Nigerian Airforce just like
the gallant Nigerian Airforce and Special Forces bombarded the criminal Ijaw
elements who were terrorising the Lagos, Ogun and Ondo waterways in 2016.
When Goodluck Jonathan was in power as President, he could NOT DO anything
to STOP his kinsmen from killing innocent people in large numbers in the
Western part of Nigeria especially the Ikorodu and Arepo creeks of Ogun State.
This system has proven to decimate the criminal BH as well using ISR Platforms
and it will help to bring peace in other trouble spots like Birnin-Gwari in Kaduna
State among others

The Nigerian air force has released the footage of what it says is a recent raid on the base of militants in the Arepo area of Ogun state.

The video showed two aircraft hovering over a militant camp, which had at least 15 armed men. About five boats were seen beside some makeshift tents in the camp.

In a manner as though they were preparing for battle, one of the militants mounted a gunboat, while others joined him later.

The air force jets initially seen were apparently on a surveillance mission, as three fighter jets were later deployed to the location.

The footage indicated that the jets released missiles into the creeks, but images of the attack strikes themselves were not shown.

Jerry cans and boats used for siphoning crude oil were seen in the video, dated August 1, 2016.

Prior to the operation, which was code-named ‘Operation Awatse’, the militants wreaked havoc on different coastal communities in Lagos and Ogun states.

They killed, robbed, raped, and kidnapped residents of the communities with little or no resistance from security agencies.

The military crackdown is also taking place in Ikorodu, Lagos.

Science/Technology › Re: Types Of Solar Inverter In Nigeria And Their Prices (Photos) by Konquest: 10:22am On Jul 25, 2018
LatestNews180:
Due to the epileptic power supply in Nigeria, solar energy has been a recommended alternative source of electricity.

Solar power is the conversion of sunlight into electricity. For efficiency and efficacy, however, long-lasting solar power systems require a high-quality inverter with a robust convention cooling system.

So, what exactly are these solar Inverters?

Solar inverters are technologies that convert the variable direct current (DC) output of a photovoltaic solar panel into a utility frequency alternating current (AC), which can be inputted into an electrical grid or used by a local electrical network.

Solar inverter forms the balance of system (BOS), which is a core component in a photovoltaic system, therefore allowing the use of ordinary AC-powered equipment.

Sit back and read through this piece as I reveal to you various types of solar inverters in Nigeria — alongside their specs and prices.

The Nigeria market is currently equipped with three major types of solar inverters.

Each one of them, however, has different specifications even though they perform the same function. Also, they have different working principles but achieve the same goal. The types or classifications include:


Stand-alone Inverters/Off Grid Inverter: This is an electrical inverter that converts DC power stored in batteries to AC power that can be utilized based on need. Normally, Stand-alone inverters usually come in sizes from 100watts to 8000watts. The minimum can be used to power notebook computers and fax machines when affixed to your car while the maximum can be used for powering an entire house or small commercial operations.

Grid-tie Inverter: An electrical inverter which is associated with the grid can be said to be a grid-tie inverter. How does it work? It works by feeding power from or to the electricity grid by corresponding phase and frequency. Do you know the beauty of these inverters? They are designed to automatically shut down once they sense a loss of supply from the utility. Grid-tie Inverters are used between local electrical power generators like the solar panel, wind turbine, hydroelectric, and grid.

Battery Backup Inverter: These special types of inverters are particularly designed to draw energy from a battery. The charge of the battery is, however, preserved by using an onboard charger, and an additional energy is transferred to the utility grid. These types of inverters have the ability to provide AC Power to particular loads during power shortages. In addition, they are also equipped with anti-islanding function.

Micro Inverter: These are the latest inverters in the solar industry. They are small, compact, and portable with a wide spectrum of performance. On a general note, they include a single solar module that generates DC to be converted to AC.

Solar Inverters Price List in Nigeria

Looking at the wide varieties of solar inverters on the market, I deem it fit to give the specifications of some of them in order to guide you in making the right choice. As I stated earlier, they have different specifications but perform the same function in a different fashion.

1. 8KVA Solar Inverter

Thanks for bringing back the memory of yesteryears. Seeing this Citroen reminded me of early 1980s( 1980 or 1981 or thereabout) that I went with my dad to Murtala Muhammed Airport for site seeing and when coming back, through Ikeja,somewhere around the Awolowo way in Ikeja, that I saw this red glittering car that drew my innocent young boy's attention because of the design . Immediately I got closer to the car,I touched it and my dad drew me backward and asked me if I liked the car and so did I nodded my head to it . My father was the one who told me the car's name as Citroen and the name registered in my memory,ever since then. In the early 1980s, classy men drove the car which was different from the regular 504 Peugeot that is seen easily ,those yesteryears.


Great work you've been doing.

Much Love Bro.

@Olu317
You're absolutely correct about the FACT that Citroen was used in Nigeria by classy men [men of style] in the 1970s and early 1980s. Seeing a Citroen just gives me instant nostalgia about the 1970s and Kingsway Stores especially. grin

I remember clearly that Citroen, Range Rover, and Mercedes were the cars used in the 1970s by the middle-upper class in Nigeria - Lagos especially. The Naira was still very strong then, and people travelled by air more frequently within Nigeria and to London
via the Nigeria Airways and British Caledonian without batting an eye lid!
grin

Infact on my first trip by air on a Nigeria Airways Airbus A310 from Murtala Muhammed Airport to Abidjan, Cote d'Ivoire in 1987, there were many French made cars such as Citroen being used in that beautiful and well-planned West African country.

Christopher Akhigbe Omeben [who is an ex-Deputy Inspector-General of Police who investigated the murder of renowned journalist, Dele Giwa via the letter bomb blast which occurred on October 19, 1986], said he started using his "first brand new Citroen" in Nigeria in the late 1960s while he was in his late 20s, and the car was more expensive than other cars in existence in the 1960s. He said this in an interview he granted to a radio station [Radio Continental - now Max FM in Lagos with 'Tokunbo Ojebiyi].

Citroen is still a strong brand in people's memories!

Citroën (is a French automobile manufacturer, part of the PSA Peugeot Citroën group since 1976, founded in 1919 by French industrialist André-Gustave Citroën (1878–1935).

I was wandering in the rain
Mask of life, feelin' insane
Swift and sudden fall from grace
Sunny days seem far away
Kremlin's shadow belittlin' me
Stalin's tomb won't let me be
On and on and on it came
Wish the rain would just let me
How does it feel (How does it feel)
How does it feel
How does it feel
When you're alone
And you're cold inside
Here abandoned in my fame
Armageddon of the brain
KGB was doggin' me
Take my name and just let me be
Then a beggar boy called my name
Happy days will drown the pain
On and on and on it came
And again, and again, and again
Take my name and just let me be
How does it feel (How does it feel)
How does it feel
How does it feel
How does it feel
How does it feel (How does it feel now)
How does it feel

How does it feel
How does it feel (How does it feel now)
How does it feel
How does it feel
When you're alone
And you're cold inside

Like a stranger in Moscow (oh, not the same)
We're talkin' danger
We're talkin' danger, baby

Bonus) Citroen DS

www.nairaland.com/attachments/7406671_citroends_jpeg8ea7e385d3e0181645e46ff57ffa4247

I know, I know, this car should not be in this list. The Citroen DS was very popular in Nigeria in the 1960s, ‘70s and early 1980s, so it is not a car that is unheard of in Nigeria. However, I saw a thread on the home page of Nairaland and the thread creator claimed that Citroen cars are not popular in Nigeria and that they are not known in Nigeria. That was a shock to me. So I guess that this car is unheard of to younger generation of Nigerians. That’s why it is a bonus on this list.

The Citroen DS was an iconic and record breaking car that was produced in sedan, station wagon, coupe, convertible and limousine body configurations from 1955-1975. It was very popular in Nigeria because it was the perfect car to show off with, due to its many unusual technological features. It was nicknamed the “Goddess” because “DS" is pronounced in French as "Déesse" (goddess).
https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/f/f0/1974_Citroen_D-Special_02.jpg


Hydro-pneumatic system

The most important technological feature of the car, to Nigerians, was the fact that the driver could lower or increase the height of the car. A control in the cabin allowed the driver to select one of five heights: normal riding height, two slightly higher riding heights for poor terrain, and two extreme positions for changing wheels. Nigerians loved lowering and increasing the height of the car, especially where there were other people to see you do it.

www.nairaland.com/attachments/7406666_citroendslimo_jpegbfcb26055665f557ae242b7f7b00e347
Citroen DS stretch limousine

This ability to lower and increase the height of the car was due to the novel hydro-pneumatic suspension including an automatic levelling system and variable ground clearance, developed in-house by Paul Magès. Basically, this also meant that the Citroen DS was designed to be level, no matter the condition of the road. The car could go into potholes and over bumps and yet it would still be level. This was because the roads in France were pretty bad after the Second World War and so the car was designed to provide excellent ride quality, despite the condition of the roads.

At rest, Citroën DS will slowly sink to the ground as the engine-driven hydraulic system is depressurized.


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cFYJeRh5mpc
Raising the Citroen DS

In conventional cars, hydraulics are only used in brakes and power steering. In the DS they were also used for the suspension, clutch and transmission.


At a time when few passenger vehicles had independent suspension on all wheels, the application of the hydraulic system to the car's suspension system to provide a self-levelling system was an innovative move. This suspension allowed the car to achieve sharp handling combined with very high ride quality, frequently compared to a "magic carpet".

The Safari version saw use as a camera car, notably by the BBC. The hydro-pneumatic suspension produces an unusually steady platform for filming while driving.

www.nairaland.com/attachments/6707424_citroendscabrio06_jpeg595187722750785b8219bf2dc4506bfb

The DS did not have a jack for lifting the car off the ground. Instead, the hydraulic system enabled wheel changes with the aid of a simple adjustable stand. To change a flat tyre, one would adjust the suspension to its topmost setting, insert the stand into a special peg near the flat tyre, then readjust the suspension to its lowermost setting. The flat tyre would then retract upwards and hover above ground, ready to be changed.

The DS system, while impressive to use, sometimes dropped the car quite suddenly, especially if the stand was not placed precisely or the ground was soft or unlevel.


Assassination attempt on President Charles de Gaulle

The Citroen DS was, of course, the official car of the President of France, General Charles de Gaulle and many people believe that it played a part in saving the general’s life during an assassination attempt.

www.nairaland.com/attachments/7406669_citroendsdegaulle2_jpege7e40f0505d9632b7c5ad66f9e2f9b27
President Charles de Gaulle in a Citroen DS

Algeria was a colony of France and the French had the view that their colonies were actually part of France. However, the Algerians had begun a bloody war for independence and, in 1962, President de Gaulle decided to grant Algeria independence.

This did not go down well with some French people who felt that Algeria should always be part of France. They felt that de Gaulle was betraying France by granting independence to Algeria. The French militant group, OAS, which had a lot of former military officers in its ranks, decided to kill de Gaulle for granting independence to Algeria.

www.nairaland.com/attachments/7406668_citroendsdegaulle_jpegced8e4322ff3e1b707739cee22bf7ba4
General Charles de Gaulle in a Citroen DS

De Gaulle and his wife were being driven from the Elysee Palace to Orly Airport in Paris when 12 OAS gunmen opened fire on the presidential Citroën DS. As History tells it, “A hail of 140 bullets, most of them coming from behind, killed two of the president’s motorcycle bodyguards, shattered the car’s rear window and punctured all four of its tires.” Other reports said the bullets blew out two or three tires instead.

At any rate, the DS was way too high tech to get shut down by something as simple as gunfire. While it went into a skid at first, the car’s suspension kept it level and drivable, even without the aid of tires. De Gaulle’s driver managed to escape the situation, and the president and his wife made it to the airport unharmed. This attempted killing was dramatized in the film “The Day of the Jackal.”


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mp0yPa0zcKw
Dramatization of the assassination attempt on President De Gaulle in the 1973 epic movie “The Day Of The Jackal” (adapted from Frederick Forsyth’s classic book)

The DS’ role in thwarting the attempt on his life made De Gaulle love the car even more. He refused to travel in anything else. And in 1969, when Fiat sought to take a troubled Citroën over in 1969, De Gaulle limited their stake to 15 percent. Citroën would end up staying in French hands as part of the PSA Peugeot Citroën group.

Swivelling lights

Another amazing feature on the Citroen DS was the fact that the headlights could swivel. This design had four headlights under a smooth glass canopy (two headlights on the left and two headlights on the right) and the inner set swivelled with the steering wheel. The lights turned left if you turned the steering wheel to the left and they turned right if you turned the steering wheel to the right. This allowed the driver to see "around" turns, especially valuable on twisting roads driven at high speed at night. The directional headlamps were linked to the wheels by cable.

Behind each glass cover lens, the inboard high-beam headlamp swivels by up to 80° as the driver steers, throwing the beam along the driver's intended path rather than uselessly across the curved road. The outboard low-beam headlamps are self-levelling in response to pitching caused by acceleration and braking.

However, this feature was not allowed in the US at the time, so a version with four exposed headlights that did not swivel was made for the US market.





Awards and records

Development of the Citroen DS began in 1937, but then Nazi Germany invaded France in 1940, so Citroën chairman Pierre-Jules Boulanger told his engineers to hide their designs and prototype cars from the Germans for fear that they would weaponize them. Citroen were developing two ground breaking cars at this time, the DS and the 2CV (The 2CV was one of the most popular small cars in Europe in the 1950s, ‘60s and ‘70s and it competed with the Volkswagen Beetle).

www.nairaland.com/attachments/7406667_citroendslimo2_jpega1174f5d0d8c8729c056cc190d9e0dfd

After 18 years of secret development as the successor to the Traction Avant, the DS 19 was introduced on 5 October 1955 at the Paris Motor Show. In the first 15 minutes of the show, 743 orders were taken, and orders for the first day totalled 12,000. During the 10 days of the show, the DS took in 80,000 deposits; a record that stood for over 60 years, until it was eclipsed by the Tesla Model 3 which received 180,000 first day deposits in March 2016.

www.nairaland.com/attachments/7406672_citroends2_jpeg3c2d8fe9b33d3572fecc5dccbfac14ef
The Citroen DS was featured in the US TV series “The Mentalist”. It was driven by the star of the show, Patrick Jane.

The DS placed third in the 1999 Car of the Century competition (recognizing the world's most influential auto designs), and fifth on Automobile Magazine's "100 Coolest Cars" listing in 2005. It was also named the most beautiful car of all time by Classic & Sports Car magazine after a poll of 20 world-renowned car designers, including Giorgetto Giugiaro, Ian Callum, Roy Axe, Paul Bracq, and Leonardo Fioravanti.

Noted for its aerodynamic, futuristic body design and innovative technology, the DS set new standards in ride quality, handling, and braking and was the first production car equipped with disc brakes.


Replacements

French car makers, Peugeot, Renault and Citroen have all made executive cars since 1975, but none has reached the iconic status of the Citroen DS. Citroen has produced the CX, XM and C6, Peugeot has produced the 604, 605 and 607, while Renault has produced the 25, Safrane and Vel Satis, but none of these cars has been nearly as popular as the Citroen DS. In fact, the three French companies have given up on the executive segment (e.g. Peugeot did not produce a replacement for the 607).

www.nairaland.com/attachments/6707426_images7_jpeg3fe0eb64a955bc7956460a036f6d581a

In 2009, Groupe PSA created a new brand - DS Automobiles, intended as high quality, high specification variations on existing models, with differing mechanics and bodywork. This brand ranges across four models, the DS3, DS4, DS5, and the China-only SUV DS 6. The DS3, launched in March 2010, is based on Citroën's new C3, but is more customisable and unique, bearing some resemblance to the original DS, with its "Shark Fin" side pillar. These have created their own niches, with the DS4 being a mix of a crossover and a coupe and the DS5 mixing a coupe and an estate. Many feature hybrid-diesel engines to maximise efficiency. However, I do not believe that any of these cars will be nearly as prestigious and popular as the original iconic Citroen DS.

EmagNig:
One of Africa’s most successful rap stars, Michael Owusu Addo, known on stage as Sarkodie has officially left the bachelor’s market by tying the knot with mother of his daughter and longtime sweetheart, Tracy Ama.

The traditional wedding ceremony took place in Tema, Accra on July 17, 2018, followed by the white wedding on July 21, 2018, at Labadi Beach Hotel, Accra.

The strictly by invitation event had some of the big men in the society attending.

Photos captured at the event show businessmen Kofi Amoabeng and Oscar Yao Doe of Eurostar Limousine and entertainers like Joselyn Duas, KOD, and many others.

Sarkodie and Tracy are blessed with a girl, Titi and have been in a relation for about a decade.

Watch the Video:

It was although reported that Sarkodie’s management led by Angel Town prevented everyone from taking pictures of the couple but we were able to get ones taking by the guests of themselves.

Ghanaian rapper Sarkodie is considered a one of the best rappers in not only his native country, but across Africa. He has recorded with most top music artistes in both Ghana and Nigeria.

Ekiti state election was a vote buying one.
^^^^^
Vote buying has been going on for years in Nigeria... early 1980s to be
precise. I didn't just start with Ekiti elections. Even then, vote buying
has been taking place in cash and in kind!

The accredited INEC Election Observers all said INEC conducted the
election well and there was NO RIGGING... but there were some
observed cases of so-called "vote buying" which some people in Ekiti
allegedly rejected.

So the election results were well counted at the polling boots
before being sent to the Collation Centre according to Election Observers
such as Mr. Ezenwa Nwagwu, who is also the Chairman, Partners for Electoral
Reform and member, Working Group of Watching The Vote, Yiaga Africa.



The PDP has alleged that there was rigging, and some others are saying there was no rigging. Did you observe rigging in that election?

There was no rigging. You see, the political parties are very lazy. Like I said, polling unit result was handed over to party agents and there were no disruptions. The only disruption was in one or two polling units. In the remaining 2,000 plus polling units, they already had their results. Any political party can compute polling unit by polling unit, but their laziness is such that even after the election, they may not have the patience to collect the results from their agents at the polling units. When you say rigging, it’s not about grandstanding. We were on ground, and there was no polling unit where the party agents did not receive results and signed for them. So, it is simple; collect the results per polling unit from all your party agents and put the figures on excel to compute. Politicians want to attack the credibility of INEC and the media should not allow themselves to be used."

The CDD Director, Idayat Hassan, who was on ground in Ekiti, told NAN that although there were cases of ballot box snatching in some areas, INEC did not declare results from the affected polling units cancelled.

The Centre for Democracy and Development (CDD), on Sunday, said so far, there have been no evidence of rigging in the result of Saturday’s governorship election in Ekiti.


CDD was among many civil society organisations (CSOs) across the country accredited by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to monitor the poll.

All Progressive Congress (APC) candidate, in Saturday’s governorship election, Dr. Kayode Fayemi, was declared the winner.


The CDD Director, Idayat Hassan, who was on ground in Ekiti, told NAN that although there were cases of ballot box snatching in some areas, INEC did not declare results from the affected polling units cancelled.

“I think the election outcome reflects the will of the people.

“At least so far, we saw that INEC deployed its logistics early and people turned out to vote inspite of the fear in several voters.


“There is no evidence to show that there was any rigging. Yes all the places there were ballot boxes snatching, INEC actually cancelled the results.

“So for now, we cannot point to any evidence of rigging. What is just going on is more of misinformation by some politicians,” she said.

Hassan disclosed that the CDD did not only deploy 100 observers across the local governments of the state but also set up an analysis centre for the election.


Hassan, who advised the people of the state to eschew violence, called on those who were dissatisfied with the election outcome to seek redress in the law court.

”I think fundamentally, the thing is to keep calm. If anybody is not happy with the results of the election, feel free to approach the court of law as the last resort.

Nigeria was president of the UN Security Council during Abacha when the obnoxious apartheid policy of the minority white regime in South Africa was dismantled.
