When one checks the demography of the literate/income level of those that voted in the presidential election even amidst gross manipulations one finds out Tinubu supporters were mostly people without any form of formal certificate or decent living condition. From the voting statistics especially in the northwest, northeast and southwest those that voted for him came from slums, poor neighbourhoods. remote villages etc. I think its time Nigeria look into the credibility of the voters if we need to ever get anything right in this ciuntry 2 Likes |

People without western education are also humans and Nigerians and it is their right to vote. The subtle suggestion to infringe on this right is wrong, immoral and inhumane 26 Likes 2 Shares |

Yes, only graduates should vote. In developed countries, only masters degree holders are allowed to vote and they must be older than 60 years and have white hair and have at least $1m in the bank. Goan verify. 2 Likes 1 Share |

He would have gotten enough to make him the president...so many doctors, lecturers, civil servants and students voted for him! The literate population is also a population of human beings and not zombies who will see things the same way |

Houseontherock1: Doctors, lecturers, civil servants and students ALL from Yoruba land.. I've never seen a real life, ordinary Benue person, or Kaduna person, or Rivers person, or Taraba person that has anything good to say about this gargoyle called Tinubu. @OP, your point is the simple reason why the useless BAT couldn't get a mere 25 percent in Abuja where the bulk of the population are literate and enlightened. 1 Like |

Hedonini:My post was in response to your exaggerated use of "a single vote". You hate him, but several others love him across boards; irrespective of their level of education. Even if only literate Yorubas voted for him in a situation where only the literates hold the aces, will you still say he got 'no single vote' because no single Igbo voted for him? Let's be logical and not play too much with words here! One man's meat will always be another man's poison 3 Likes |

MXrep:Sorry, but it seems you are getting it all wrong. The fact that the popular votes does not translate to electoral college decision is purely demographic as against political reason. To make it clearer, each state in America presents 2 senators each to represent their interest at the senate. The number of members of the house of representative that each state elects on the other hand is determined by the population size of each of the states. Thus, states with smaller population would produce lesser amount of representives than the ones with larger population. States like California and Ohio, given their population sizes would produce more representives than smaller states like say-Montana. In total the US congress is made up 538 members, that is both the members of senate and. the members of house of representives. So, after the general election, the parties that won the popular votes in each of the states, enjoys the privilege of providing members of the electoral college (its representives in congress) to elect the next president. Bottom line is that if say the Democratic party won 20 out of the 50 states and such victory included California, Ohio, New York and other highly populated states while the Republican party manages to win 30 lower population states, because, the Republicans won more states, even though the total vote count might the less than what the Democrats have, they might determine the next president Because more states won means more Republicans electoral college members to vote. More often than not they vote for their own party person. That is why popular vote may not count. 1 Like |

Houseontherock1:Yes, that's exactly what he and his fellow Obidients would say. That's why they believe they "won" the election but had their "mandate" somehow "stolen" from them, even though Obi failed to win more than 1 state in the SW and didn't get a single state in the NW or NE. In their minds, the only votes that should matter are those of their "kinsmen", who alone deserve to determine who rules a country they've spent most of the last 8 years claiming to want to break away from. 3 Likes 1 Share |
