If you are doing business with the Big 4, just sleep with your two eyes closed. These are KPMG, EY, PwC, and Deloitte. These are the 4 biggest audit companies in the world.
This one no dey listen to news

You are correct. No well meaning Nigerian takes Nigeria's current national assembly, INEC, Judiciary and military serious.


Honestly APC really did Nigeria plenty evil.


Tinubu used his nepotism, bias leadership and ethnocentric appointments and policies to destroy every atom of hope and patriotism in most Nigerians.


And funny enough, Tinubu's funny supporters still expect Nigerians to wish such a divisive, corrupt, wicked and unfair President and his nepotism regime well, how please?


How can a father intentionally neglect some of his children while pampering one particular child of his and still expect the rest of his children to love him and wish him well? Bola Tinubu is that father that intentionally neglected some of his children while pampering one of his child the Yorubas while expecting all his children to love him, pray for him and wish him well, its not possible cos some of your children you intentionally neglected and treating with disdain will definitely be wishing you death if need be and they are well justified cool
It’s too early to cry nah. Wait till 12PM on election day before you start crying. Una go cry tire. APC top to bottom

Under Section 60(5) of the proposed amendment, the law would make it mandatory for presiding officers to transmit results both electronically and manually. Failure to comply would attract a penalty of one-year imprisonment, a ₦1 million fine, or both.
So after 2 years of their so called brainstorming, this was all they could come up with?
Why insert manual transmission knowing fully well that it has become outdated and doesn't guarantee credible elections?
Until the national assembly removes the power and authority of the president to select and appoint INEC officials including the national chairman,there can never be free,fair and credible elections in Nigeria!

Sanwo Olu would have since relocated to peckam.
I didn't mention anybody's name ooh 😂😂

But I remember a certain governor who changed his reelection campaign strategy to include going to naming ceremonies, wedding parties, etc because the presidential candidate running on his party's platform had been defeated in that state, which coincidentally happened to be his home state.

These are good recommendations, but my only concern here is that the umpire in this election cannot be trusted because it's not independent.

Consequently, one of the big 4 auditing firms in Nigeria should have access to INEC backend server in real-time to help monitor the results as they trickle in. If not, the new INEC chairman probably has a story he will tell Nigerians in 2026 November why something went wrong with the server.

Lastly, I don't know why we still need presiding officers when we can actually transmit election results in real time.
Very nice suggestions but I doubt politicians in the ruling party that do always hidden agenda will consider it.
Re: 2027: NASS Proposes November 2026 For Presidential, Governorship Elections by AsgardKing: 7:05am On Oct 14, 2025
You prefer that elections disputes outcomes should remain in the hands of incumbents who have been sworn in?

You guys always complain about everything! Is the February election not fresh into the new year when the same politicians would have stacked money up for the new yearhuh

SlavaUkraini:
Hmmm 🤔 🤔 🤔 🤔

They now want to weaponize the election date

Most citizens are looking for money (and in some cases Bags of Rice) in November preparing for the festive seasons ...

You now declare an election,

Where the politician with the deepest pocket for vote buying will likely be the winner ..

Where the politician with the largest warehouse of Rice, Garri and Groundnut Oil will likely be the winner

Politicians with vote buying plans will smile at this proposed bill...

If we genuinely desire sustainable development, we face a stark choice: either a military takeover or a single party maintaining dominance for an extended period. It is important to clarify that I am not advocating for a one-party state. Rather, there is a necessity for policy consistency. Lagos State's success stems not only from the wisdom of its leaders, but also from the consistency of its policies. In democratic systems where state institutions are weak, policy inconsistencies often arise. History has shown us that Nigerians may not always prioritise institutional integrity but may instead respond to emotional appeals. Therefore, the most viable alternative is a consistent policy framework enabled by the long-term rule of a single party. A prime example of this is the China that we often admire. I would wager that the military regimes in the three Sahel countries that have separated from ECOWAS would thrive if they were to remain in power for a prolonged period. In the context of Africa, the form of democracy currently being practised in the West is at odds with our deeply rooted cultural practices.

And how do you ensure the auditing farm is not worst than INEC itself. Employment contract was given a firm in one south west state. Then we discovered that this private firm are even worse than government agencies.
International auditing firms like KPMG has a very good reputation.

Very good if they are serious about it.

But wait oh, it looks like Akpabio and the House of Reps Speaker are tried of Emilokan's nepotism and are desperate to see the Divisive Southwest President sent back to Iragbiji earlier before he sets the whole country ablaze shocked


If they are serious with their motions, then it's a welcomed idea but Baba Sope aka Lagos Landlord will fight to finish, so make una get ready cheesy
Lolz. You deveropers are beyond silly in your fantasies. This reminds me of what one of you put on X after the election about Tulumbu and that chief judge going to beg obi in private on their knees. I remember how you lot were jubilating in that thread over something a 3 month old Down Syndrome patient would detect was a lie immediately without much thought. That was when I knew sane Nigerians were in for great entertainment from you guys. Lolz.

If the Jagaban is only interested in rigging the election then he won't sign up every formidable players into his club. In fact, Asiwaju is ready to open INEC to forensic evaluation by the UN. I repeat, the 2026 presidential election results will produce the biggest landslide in the history of Nigeria even better than June 12. No be next year? Reserve your tears. Premium tears.

Yes, just the way that he and his APC thugs have ensured there's free and fair election in Lagos during guber elections. Oga, shift!

America holds presidential election in November and swear in the president in January a period of less than 80 days.

You cannot command the judiciary that they must rush into judgement within 45 days. This bill is taking us backwards not forward

we can't stop defections, they just have to give up the office they are elected to if they defect.
Defect and lose your seat in the parliament and as a governor of local government chairman, you quit the office

With the so called "technical glitch" in 2023, I wonder how NASS and INEC will convince Nigerians n especially me to come out,stay on the line even under rain, sun,threat,intimidation etc to vote......it will be really hard..definitely a hard knock to crack

At the public hearing, several stakeholders — including the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) represented by Prof. Abdullahi Zuru — backed the push for electronic voting and electronic transmission of results to enhance transparency.
if I didn't witness it, I would have believed they meant good
