Expressway for the opposition to win.

Ipob has already sat at 2 elections and people still won.

They sat at home during 2019 elections Buhari still won, they still sat at home during anambra elections obiano still won.

And I know this next election person go still win

Ovamboland:


This this guy making noise on every thread is this vacuous and bereft of any knowledge....... what's the meaning of this verbiage?

Coldshisha:
As long voting takes place in the other 31 states plus FCT, then the winner with highest numbers of votes , and 25% votes in atleast 23 states would be declared the President

mrvitalis:

Read u won't ...if election don't hold in the east and the difference between the top two is less than voters in south east we have a conditional crisis

D1official:

We don't care about the elections.. What has politics added to our lives- What every Nigerian is praying is that even if the price of fuel is 1000naira/litre, let them be capable to buy it..

Until we break up- Nigeria will never work

Election will be held in the south east no matter what. Anambra election is next month and it will hold as scheduled. The turnout will be very low as expected but that’s nobody’s business. A winner will still be declared based on the number of vote cast no matter how low.

Btw, so you’re finally realizing the bad position that the south east is at the moment politically with this IPOB nonsense? Like I have told folks like you repeatedly, SE will play very little or no significant role in the next presidential election. So you see, nobody is taking all your threats of voting against a particular region seriously because we know you don’t even have the votes to start with

seunmsg:


And what will happen if Igbos outside SE refuse to vote? Tell us the political or constitutional implication.

raumdeuter:


Since most vote PDP it will be a loss for the party

D1official:

The south will lose out especially the south west that's so obsessed with presidency instead of reality.

Sachidi:
According to the constitution, each aspirant must get a required number of votes in all the 36 states to win the election.

Now let's assume the whole south east decide to sit at home as they have done a couple of times this year.

What will happen?
Will there ever be a new president?

udele1:


At least they pay civil servants who feed their family. What has Nnamdi Kanu and IPOB Contributed to yours. Nothing, rather you are the ones contributing to his account.

Even the boxers he wears is paid for by gullible Igbo's. None of Nnamdi Kanu's brothers have a job or employ anyone.

Guess their source of income. im sure you are smart

They tell you to close your business and sit at home. Do they have shops and office to close? NO


But the get steady alert from their family business..

seunmsg:


How will the south west lose out when the election will be between a southerner in APC and another southerner in PDP? Make it make sense.

mrvitalis:

Depending if difference between first and second position is more than registered voters in the south east

If it's less there can't be a new president you would have a constitutional problem and that's ipob end game ...the constitution is blank on this areas

134. 1. A candidate for an election to the office of President shall be deemed to have been duly elected, where, there being only two candidates for the election

Blue3k:


Lol you've never read the constitution or else you wouldn't make these false statements. I dont get why you guys like making up stories instead of just reading the rules. Nigeria will simply have run off elections if need be. The constitution leaves no room for vacuums and does not compell anyone's participation in the electoral process.

mrvitalis:

There is no point to argue with people like u ,why were there rerun in osun and Kano elections ?

mrvitalis:

Read u won't ...if election don't hold in the east and the difference between the top two is less than voters in south east we have a conditional crisis

Blue3k:


You don't have a counter arguments hence why you're asking questions. You lied about there would be constitutional crisis not knowing these provisions already exist. There's was no rerun election because the courts declared there previous subsections were met to declare a winner. I personally thought there should been a runoff election osun but I dont sit on any court.

mrvitalis:

If there is no election in south east , which have a total voters of 9 million plus and the difference between first n second is less than 9 million first can't be declared president simple

Untill those people are given opportunity to decide you can't declare a president

134. section 5. In default of a candidate duly elected under subsection (4) of this section, the Independent National Electoral Commission shall, within seven days of the result of the election held under the aforesaid subsection (4), arrange for another election between the two candidates to which the subsection relates and a candidate at such election shall be deemed to have been duly elected to the office of President, if he has a majority of the votes cast at the election.

Blue3k:


You're regurgitating the same lie over and over it's boring. The government is not stopping the SE from participating in the election maybe ipob terrorists are. If they are sitting at home on their own volition then there's simply going to be run off elections if need be. The constitution states the 3rd and final round goes by a simple majority. Let them sit and home and don't bother them.

FallenShitHole:
OFF COURSE THAT'S WHAT WILL HAPPEN. THERE WILL CERTAINLY BE NEW PRESIDENT, BUT IT WILL STILL NOT CHANGE THE FACT, THAT WE WANT TO LEAVE THE CONTRAPTION AND MUST LEAVE THE CONTRAPTION. PARTICIPATING IN THEIR USELESS ELECTION IS VALIDATION OF ONE NIGERIA AND IT'S PRESIDENT.

seunmsg:


If INEC makes adequate provision for election in the south east and no single individual came out to vote, zero shall be recorded for all the candidates standing in the election and it shall be collated with the results declared in other parts of the country.

We usually have rerun in cares where voters were prevented from voting and not as a result of voter apathy.

So you see, you can’t stall the election. A winner will still emerge whether you like it or not.

mrvitalis:

If there is no election in south east ...

Blue3k:


This is same way these clowns thought sitting at home would stall the Amambra election. Seriously who's cares if they vote or not. The process will carry on with sweep being more likely than a run off.

budaatum:


This is where you are getting it wrong! There is no election, is different to you boycotting and not voting.

If I put my name forward to be elected and everyone sits at home while I vote for myself, which I obviously would, I won, and you would have lost to my one single vote.

FallenShitHole:

USEFUL IDIOT OF THE FULANIS. TELL US HOW YOUR USELESS COMMENT IS GOING TO STOP BIAFRA FROM EMERGING? CLOWN!!

mrvitalis:

The question from the op was clear if there is no election

Sachidi:
