senatordave1:
It allows multiple voting

senatordave1:
If you understand the constitution, you won't be wailing and ranting.constitutionally, what applies to president applies to govs.qualifications for president and govs are exactly the same.therefore,the spread for gov and presidential polls are same.it is not a must to get 25% in fct.I don't know why zombidients are stubbornly childish

senatordave1:
I thought we settled this before.it said pdp will win fct,didnt say who will take 2nd or who won't get 25%.
Fct is counted as a state,that is you will get 25% in 25 states

senatordave1:
If you travel round rural areas of ss,you won't utter this rubbish.apc have a big chance of winning crs and will likely get 25% in all ss states.buhari got 25% in 5 ss states.most people dont care about that mm ticket....

wegevv:
Where in the constitution does it say that "what applies to president applies to govs"? Show me the exact section lol. FCT is not a state. It is something unique to the federal level. Go and read your constitution and stop wailing about what the constitution says in very plain English.

Calling me names for reading simple English you know. You people never cease to amaze me. You want to re-interpret the constitution in your tribal language because you know that most enlightened people in the capital have rejected your disgrace of a party.

But don't worry, it is not only FCT that has rejected them, it is everyone. If we are lucky, APC will be humiliated for giving us the worst federal government in the history of our great country. And even those closest to you will celebrate and be thankful <3

wegevv:
Idiotic statement yet again. Buhari only did that when he was running against a fellow Muslim Fulani man. In 2015 Buhari got 6% in Cross Rivers and Akwa Ibom, 4% in Delta and Rivers (despite the backing of the sitting Governor) and 1% in Bayelsa (Jonathan's home state)

Demographics is king <3

PS: I hope APC keep wasting their time and resources there

wegevv:
Sent out? By mail, email or post

This made up poll doesn't think APC can get 25% in FCT. So even here they have no chance to win in the first ballot according to the constitution:

tuniski:
25% in FCT is an expressly state constitutional requirement . It is different from just having 25% in 25 states.
This poll is laughable!!!!

dinachi:
If APC is more that should even play to their advantage. So your point is mute

senatordave1:
It is a waste of time arguing with you.all you needed to do was to read the constitution and compare criterion for presidents and govs and see if there's a difference.the fct is looked at like a state that is why the constitution gives them a minister,reps members,special budgets.do you know abuja is the capital of the fact? Do you know that they have their own lgas called area councils?

A reasonable person will ask,why will 25% be mandatory in fct and not Lagos,rivers,kano or other states? Why are 25% not mandatory in state capitals? What is so special in fct,is it more important than states? Does it mean fct is more special than 24 states combined? Continue ranting.tinubu will trash pandora

Misterone:
Boyoo! that thing you are thinking is not correct. Abuja is not a state, that's why it is not mentioned as a state. If not we would have 37 states, which will lead to another constitutional crisis because we will then be looking for ⅔of 37, which is a fraction. The word "and" means at least 25. Abuja is not a must.

constitution: If the candidate gets a majority of “yes” over “no” votes cast in the election and at
least a quarter of votes cast in at least 24 States and the Federal Capital Territory.

senatordave1:
See childishness.bye kid

ganisucks:
There is only one poll, and it is called ANAP.
After Feb 25th, all these oluwole polls will die a thousand deaths.

wegevv:
PS: FCT is special because it is not a state. It has no gubernatorial elections. You must get 25% in FCT since you will appoint the minister that will essentially govern FCT.

You're welcome <3

wegevv:
You are being dishonest which is why the simple English of the constitution is frustrating you lol. Go and ask our founding fathers why they did it like that but the English is very very clear. FCT is not a state according to the constitution. I'm sorry it isn't what you wish it was <3

You can usually tell someone has lost an argument when then start hurling names lol. It is not personal, I love you but I will always hate the party that has given us the worst federal government in the history of our country <3

Vote Obi, or literally anyone else but APC <3

senatordave1:
Does this sound reasonable? Fct is half or a quasi state so it cannot be more special than a state.you have nothing reasonable to say

senatordave1:
Be mature and ask yourself if this requirement was there in the 1979 and 1960 constitutions

wegevv:
It is what the constitution says in plain and clear English. If it doesn't sound reasonable to you then you should go and check your reasoning Mr Garfield. Or continue wailing in multiple accounts lol <3

wegevv:
Be mature and read what the constitution says in plain and simple English

wegevv:
No you are wrong. The constitution says 24 states. It expresses 2/3 as 24 states. Not 24.6 or 25 but 24 states. It says so very clearly. We also know that according to the constitution FCT is not a state. It has no gubernatorial elections. senatordave1 keeps asking what is so special about FCT. This is it. You must get 25% in FCT since you will appoint the minister that will essential govern FCT.

The constitution clear says and. It is saying 24 states and FCT. It didn't say "25% in 2/3 of the states and FCT". No it said 24 states. And then FCT. It is very clear:

Ezeama400:
Self deception is the highest deception so far

senatordave1:
Tinubu will bury obi in a runoff kid

senatordave1:
Buhari will get 30% in anambra.

senatordave1:
The constitution never said 24 states,it said two third of the states and fct.if fct was mandatory, it would have mentioned it clearly

wegevv:
You always talk nonsense

senatordave1:
You have issues oh.are you ok? Why are state capitals not mandatory for gov?

constitution: If the candidate gets a majority of “yes” over “no” votes cast in the election and at
least a quarter of votes cast in at least 24 States and the Federal Capital Territory.
