Until we truly digitized polling system, we will continue to have living dead as leaders.

All a mofo needs is some herds of illiterates with N200 in their hands or a propaganda in their heart.

Rigging has begun

They have created polling units in deep forests across the countries where Fulani herdsmen and foreign Fulani bandits have their camps.

Gerrymandering!
Were the political parties adequately and extensively consulted?
This is how election rigging is perfected!
The first step towards elections rigging is gerrymandering...
This very INEC boss is one smart crook! Maybe the smartest crook in this country...
Always using his quiet mien to wriggle out of all sorts of political holes he dug for the country..
