Ok..
But does that in anyway explain the reason why the two accreditation data would be different, even though accreditation was done only once for the two elections?

Oh oh oh....I see your line of reasoning. There is usually one accreditation template/register for both elections. That's not possible. I got it missed up

Ideally it doesn't make sense but its not illegal after all.
It will be assumed that some people got accredited but were only interested and voted in the presidential election

BluntNigerian:
This case here is very very different.
ONLY ONE SINGLE ACCREDITATION OF VOTERS SERVED FOR BOTH PRESIDENTIAL, SENATORIAL, AND HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES ELECTIONS.. NOT TWO ACCREDITATIONS.. JUST ONE..
Its just like putting 200 mangoes each sealed in their different bags and sent on two different buses going to Lagos. When the two bags arrived at Lagos, their numbers varied so much.
Was there supposed to be variation in the first place?
And if there is, who do we blame for the variation in figures??
The person that put the mangoes on different buses?
The bus driver?
Or the person at Lagos that counted the mangoes he received??

U don't seem to get it!!!
Let's assume there were 500 registered voters in a particular voting unit, that unit has two strong contending senatorial candidate from the area. The people in the unit agrees to let election go ahead the way it ought to be in the senatorial election as both candidates are from the area but all agreed that the presidential election votes should all go to party XYZ because the VP is from their area. Now accreditation is done for the 300 voters who turns up for the election, after which all the remaining 200 absent voters are ticked as accredited and ballot papers thumb printed for the party XYZ for the presidential candidate as there is no opposition in the presidential election in that particular unit. If u have actively participated in the conduct of an election in this area you will grasp the concept

BluntNigerian:
But check it naa..
Is it right for few political parties to come together and allocate imaginary votes to themselves?? Does it sound like a good reason or excuse for such a discrepancy??

I'm not justifying these actions. I'm only telling you what's obtainable in most of these areas

Bluntsisi:
Consensus among the parties?
Wonderful.!!
So, the parties now come together and decide what happens during elections, and yet they allowed the whole lot of people to stand under the sun in vain??
Like, you mean this happened ONLY in Anambra State?

I don't know which part of the country you are but I can frankly tell u what happens in Elections in most states in SS & few States in SE. There are no elections in some areas. Everyone in the community goes with the tide. They only go to the polling units to receive handouts. We've seen great disparity on voters turnout for election conducted within the same period

I think there was a consensus among various political parties in some areas in Anambra state to vote PDP for the presidential election and as such proper scrutiny was not done by the political parties. I assume presidential election accreditation figures and votes were simply allocated in some units whereas actual accreditation was used in the national Assembly elections

Nigerians are the problem of Nigeria. We behave reckless and stubborn in Nigeria, but when we travel out to white men's country we act coordinated at our best.

Simple lockdown and stay at home order has become very difficult to obey. Why offloading lifeless goods during this period of lockdown ? Well the driver of the goods must have bribed his way through the security personnel.

Wisdom 101 teaches that you don't argue with a man carrying gun, whether Armed Robber, Army, SARS or Police.

Anyways RIP to the death.

C'mon who are u blaming here? Is the unarmed young man or the uncouth policeman? I really wonder how some of us think in this country. In the US were we have record deaths from covid 19 how many people have u heard has been killed from trigger happy security men? Or are there no violators there? We better start thinking straight honestly

That's quite impressive if true. If Only the Nigerian Armed Forces can apply the same vigour and tenacity in the fight against the terrorists the Boko Haram scourge would have been a thing of the past.

Bleep off!!!!

d33types:
Licences are usually granted before testing procedures. Except you're a member of the indomie generation who didn't experience GSM in the early 2000s

I want to believe you work in the ministry of communication or MTN otherwise shut up as from both their (communication minister & MTN) submissions there is no evidence that a license have been issued. Furthermore if that license have been issued to MTN there must have been a memo stating that as in the case of the testing.

xpool:
So that is how you pass judgement; jaundiced judgement.
FG said they had not given any licence for 5g, but failed to mention that Mtn had conducted 5g test, and that can't be done without NCC. If this Mtn proclamation was not dug up, lied Mohammed would have maintained that 5g never stepped into Nigeria.

The govt said tests were conducted but no license issued yet. I believe you were among the informed folks that were happy about the news of 5G. Other advanced countries were currently working on their 5G infrastructures until this COVID-19 pandemic and the attendant rumours/link to 5G networks. We should not be in a hurry to trade blames. We should look at issues critically and criticize when need be

I thought PMB promised to lead Nigerian troops to uproot Boko Boys once elected?
Or was that a fiction of my imagination?

The Govt said they have only carried out the initial testing but no license to operate 5G network has been issued. From the available information there is at least no pranks been played by the government.
The government has its weaknesses no doubt but we should be more pragmatic in our vindictiveness/criticism

Breaking!!!! Vice President Osibanjo has tested Negative to the dreaded Corona Virus. This was disclosed by one of His aides this morning

BUHARIISCURSED:
Go and die, as for us in estako east obaseki own us

I won't dignity you with an intellectual response as long as Obaseki OWN YOU (SLAVE)

oz4real83:
Pmb has settled the issues and Oshiomole has been saved but u his followers want to "unsave" him by posts like this. Even Obaseki's supporters have been silent in the spirit of peace, despite the obvious victory of their principal over Oshiomole.

They've not been silent. They are in shock mode. They knew this battle wass definitely lost the day oshiomole survived the attempted removal

Realistically even if Obaseki is given the APC on a plater of gold there is no way he is going to win the general election as most APC stakeholders will definitely work against him. They will rather bring Anini from the grave and make him Governor than voting Obaseki to continue. Obaseki has burnt all bridges leading to reconciliation

osazsky:
who contested primaries with buhari and trump d law is that any president or governor that has done well should represent d party. obaseki credentials will then be tested at d field against ogbede iheama of pdp

Which law are u talking about? Ekweme
& co contested against Obasanjo among other cases.
Nobody stopped anyone from contesting against Pmb. People didn't challenge him cos they felt thy stood no chance against him

switspin:
Primaries are not won based on political credentials

So what wins it?

If they are sure of their political credentials why not go all out and contest the primaries?
Featherweights claiming Heavyweights.

Witcher:
it's all lies. No single evidence presented. It's not in the nature of SLS to mismanaged funds

spending N37m on phone calls in 3years?

Op How Market?

Its really funny how this country works. The on certainty here is oshiomole resumes work tomorrow

Oshobaba stays

It goes either way! There is nothing fake about the story. Even as a student a handful of girls have offered themselves just sit close to me during exams

"White GSD?"

Cute Agege Shepherd.

Seriously a friend had one

Shame on PDP! You can't successfully defend the indefensible.. They must be biting their fingers now. I imagine how they(PDP) will come and campaign in South East in 2023 when the bridge is completed. Because they've always used the bridge as a bargaining chip. Or is it the Enugu(Akanu Ibiam) Int'l Airport? Jokers!!!

seniormallam:
Respect to jagaban of Lagos.......he didn't disturb Ambode at all, he was just waiting for him at the primaries........ Oshio is just behaving like a thug.

Who's behaving like a thug? Are u well at all?

Yemi Osinbanjo, Donald Duke, Peter Obi
all good to go

The blame game has now infested PDP too? We are in for a long ride......
