I will keep this short and straight to the point.

If anyone thinks that APC will be defeated through the ballot in 2027 that person is dreaming and not telling himself the truth. If anyone wants to be honest, you should know already that INEC as an "independent" electoral body won't and can't organize a fair election under this crooked government. Tinubu and the ruling party APC have already selected the next INEC chairman (currently in the cooler) who is actively been prepped on the rigging agenda for 2027. Nigerians will be making another mistake that will cost them another 4 years if they think that they can vote out Tinubu, if they fail to acknowledge the simple truth that Tinubu, APC has no integrity and will never play fair, he simply can't give what he doesn't have. He and his party knows that a free and fair election in 2027 will only guarantee the removal of his government.

The nonsense talk being peddled by some opposition voices about rotational government between North and South in the Atiku/Obi coalition camp is yet another distraction, a waste of time that will only exacerbate current political crisis going on within the opposition political parties that will only benefit the ruling APC party. Nigerians may be able to vote out the government if there are electoral reforms put in place to weaken the powers of the president over INEC but you all should know by now that current National Assembly under the leadership of Akpabio has already been pocketed by Tinubu and won't support any electoral reforms that will not favour him. The only way out for Nigerians is to forget about 2027 election and fight now for the devolution of political/economic powers from the center to regions/states.

Sadly, 2027 election will be another painful reminder that Nigeria can't work and won't work for the benefit of the people without a total restructuring of it's political landscape, a total decentralization of power to regions/states.

Seriously hate this country

Nothing heroine about the past leaders or people. If our forefathers are that good, we will never be in this situation we are today. They're in best position to lay down a good foundation for us like reknown scholars in Europe, America and Asia, but failed. The few ones left are wicked than the youths. It disgust me anytime elderly person open their mouths to talk about their days.

If you want to know why our society became so useless today, go and deal with the so called elders and see first hands corruption and wickedness in them. Infact, this generation are far more emphatic, tolerance, and have foresight than the so called elders. sad

It's painful looking back and knowing that a lot of what is happening now could've been avoided. I hope it won't take another 50 years before many Nigerians come to the realization that the country can't make any meaningful progress without a total reset.

you are very right
You are very observant

The only solution to this evul contraption is BREAK IT TO PIECES NOW LET EVERY MAN ANSWER HIS PAPA NAME!

Those that agree to form a nation together can go ahead and do so. those that want to be for themselves alone can go ahead.

BUT IF PEACEFUL BREAK UP IS NOT INITIATED NOW, AND IT DEGENERATE INTO WAR, IT WILL TAKE 50 YEARS TO BROKER PEACE AMONG THE NUMEROUS DEADLY FACTIONS THAT WILL ARISE.

And i think that's what the west are looking forward to. huge sales in weapons and munitions in addition to huge depopulation.

Not just weapons but also free access to natural resources. I do believe that it is easier to restructure than break up the country. Nigerians will not get a fair election in 2027.... The APC evil government can't be removed through the ballot as all institutions including the judiciary have been subdued by Tinubu. A national reset through total restructuring/devolution of political/economic powers is a more realistic outcome which will foster equity and allow each region to develop faster.

So what should Nigerians do?
Why are you wasting your time writing long epistles on it then?
Allow others vote if you won't keep shut!
What is your problem with people that want elections? Is it by force?
Some of you keep criticizing without offering any answers to any problem
How should Nigerians start the fight?
That's as good as doing nothing!
Nigeria has a problem but more Nigerians are realizing and one day a popular vote will change the narrative for good and 2027 is no exception!
You should be more concerned on getting the next person besides you aware of the power of votes, a lot of rigging happens cos lots of people sell votes, some don't even care...ignorantly cos if they knew the implications of choosing not to vote at all they would go out to vote.
Doing something is better than not trying at all
Mind you protest can not and will not work in Nigeria if that is what you are gearing for...
If you choose to believe otherwise then keep that for yourself and your family nobody needs the lame advise of sitting down and doing nothing
You people are just making more Nigerians psychologically tired even before the elections instead of doing otherwise

The purpose of the coalition is to make rigging as tight as possible. Don’t you know there is a way the defeat will be too overwhelming, you can’t rig it? lol.

Can tinubu rig in the east? Can he rig in the south?can he rig in the middle belt? Right now, he can’t even rig in the north anymore.
So where he wan rig? Only Yoruba Muslims? lol. Make we watch sha.

It's only a very wicked person that loves their oppressors that will say Nigerians should forget 2027.
After they will benefit from supporting evil, they then will Japa to civilized countries leaving the common masses behind.

Why continue to do the same thing and expect a different result, which deep down you know won't work. Is it not foolishness to participate in an election that you know the desperate crooked government will use all it's powers to ensure your votes don't count. Elections that will always push the North vs South "power rotation" gambit and promote other none progressive sentiments among Nigerians while those in power continue to loot our common wealth.

Since 1999, what have Nigerians truly benefitted from this Abuja based cosmetic democratic arrangement that only empowers a few against the majority? I came to the realization long ago that the main problem with Nigeria is a foundational one. We are practicing a system of government that can't work for the majority. If you are sincere, you will see that I didn't criticize but offered a solution in the post I made earlier.

What difference did your vote make in 2023....? This is 2025 and Nigeria's situation is getting worse.... Since you still believe that voting in 2027 will make a difference, I am interested in knowing what you will do when Tinubu is announced as the winner in 2027. Will the opposition go to court again to challenge Tinubu's INEC?

The last time that was tried, millions died as a civil war!
Nigeria has moved on from that phase
We rather accept reality and overwhelm the crooked system
Any other thing will result to civil crises and will degenerate into tribal and regional lines

No one believed PdP could be removed in 2015
So yes APC can be removed as well
It only takes every hands on deck and we can do that with more campaign and enlightenment
A lot of locals who's votes are even the most useful are politically ignorant of their choices
We can help ourselves more by educating the next voter
We can't risk another civil unrest
Violence is not always the way out

This was how Nigerians underestimated Tinubu in 2023 over the Muslim/Muslim ticket.... He already knows that he can't win in a fair election but just like 2023, you need to know that APC does not intend to win the election the conventional way. They have already set their plan in motion. Tinubu will win the 2027 presidential election as long as he controls the INEC and continues to exercise domineering influence over the judiciary.

The problem is not about Nigerians turning out to vote, it is mainly about the totally compromised INEC and subdued judiciary.... You know fully well that for any opposition candidate to stop Tinubu after the cooked up INEC results are announced, he/she must prove beyond reasonable doubt how the election was rigged in favour in Tinubu. To be honest, I believe you know that only INEC can truly prove this as long as Nigerian election is concerned. The only way that Tinubu will lose in 2027 is for him to be disqualified as a candidate before the election.

You said "No one believed PdP could be removed in 2015...." Tinubu is not Jonathan. He and his party APC will never concede defeat easily in any election. There is no basis for comparison between Jonathan and Tinubu.

Leave Nigeria and go to Mali.

The civil war was not as a result of restructuring or devolution of power but secession. I don't think that a break up of the country will offer any realistic solution. I strongly believe that it will be better if majority of Nigerians instead of waiting for 2027 election, they should start now to make the demand for a constitutional amendment that will ensure a total devolution of powers to regions/states. Nigerians will be better off if this is achieved.

You're just doing what you are being paid to. You think people aren't wise now? Eh no shock you that youths became interested fully in the last election?
For your information empires eventually fall.
If you like go and discourage the youths in the public and see how they will react.

I am only pointing out the truth without any financial inducement. Yes, evil empires eventually fall but that doesn't mean that Nigerians should perish with it, it doesn't mean that Nigerians should continue to participate in flawed elections every 4 years that won't benefit them. You may not want to admit it publicly but I am certain you agree that a total restructuring/devolution of political/economic powers that will empower each region to control it's resources and political landscape will go a long way towards fostering peace and developing the country.

Early consolation.

How comes it's the opposition who are insinuating on election would be rigged in 2027 while Apc is busy receiving people defecting to the party or showing allegiance to president Tinubu even if they are not defecting.

Yea I understand the system is flawed. But presently it will be difficult to rig the majority out.
The best solution is for each region to manage themselves. The UK have independent countries and they are all developing according to their own pace.
The British knows what's best for the country but they wouldn't allow it because it will disrupt their the benefits they are getting.

You see, all those defectors and the ones pledging support for his ‘reelection’ in 2027, it’s not so they can go out and help campaign for him in their respective regions! That’s what some erroneously think, which makes them normally say those useless defecting governors and others pledging support only have one vote! Discerning observers would have realised by now that all what’s going on is in preparation for rigging the 2027 elections! All he needs is for some semblance of ‘support’ and semblance of being on ground in all the regions, then leave the rest for him and INEC to take care of! Come 2027, by the time they massage the returned figures finish then switch off the BVAS machine (or whatever it’s called) owing to yet another ’glitch’ (wink..wink ) then you go know what’s up! You see, they need voices on ground in each region to counter the outcry and narratives of the opposition! You could say they need political thugs in each region, in tune with the Tinubu brand of politics, to help perform another Wike Rivers abracadabra for them! Don’t be surprised at the ‘fantastic’ numbers a state like Imo will throw up for them…they have their man fully on ground there! And it doesn’t even matter if the support they have in that state would struggle to fill a face-me-i-face-you room!

So the OP is dead right! If the opposition are banking on using the same electoral system Tinubu has in his pocket to defeat him, then they’re in for a rude awakening and a nasty surprise!🙂

People IN OPPOSITION were saying this back in 2014. Same old story, we have bad elections, INEC is compromised by PDP, etc etc...and at the end, PDP Lost.

In 2023, more people voted against APC than for APC. It is because the oppositon was divided into conflicting groups, that we ended up with tinubu in power.

The truth is, APC can be beaten in 2027, if certain people put aside their greed and work together. But no, they won't and that is how APC wins.

As for Nigeria being bad since 1999, Nigeria was bad before 1999. That is what you get for running a resource dependent economy.

There are no regions anymore.

Even when they existed, before 1966, people were already agitating for states and the breakup of the regions. Same arguments of big tribe dominating small tribe

The end began in 1963 with the creation of the midwestern region.

Nigeria is the way it is because all of you are fighting over oil money. You all won't use what you have to make stuff the world needs, and you always blame others for yer problems.

2027 election is between apc and mentally stabled Nigerians. But guess what, you vote don't mean shiii, doesn't matter if you're mentally okay or mentally deranged.
The moment the mentality unstable ones shouted and carried coffin for who made life easy for them back then, is it now they want to make a change?

That is we most push for electoral reform to accommodate live transmission of electoral results

Good luck trying to get Akpabio and others to work against Tinubu their master. The 10th Assembly under the leadership of Akpabio is gone, it is not nothing else but Tinubu's lap dog.

Restructuring Nigeria to devolve powers to the regions/states won't be given to Nigerians easily.... They will need to push for it. It will be a struggle that will benefit everyone eventually and unlock Nigeria's industrial revolution. I don't know why many Nigerians can't see this but choose to keep trying to make their votes count in the current flawed system, voting every 4 years and expecting a different result.
