Thanks. If your mocking me because I don't support your tinubu, just as the obidient mock me because I don't support their obi and the atikulators mock me because I don't support their atiku, well, I am glad y'all are doing so


I cannot help those who wish not to see.

No, everyone mustn't support one political party or another, especially if they are not convinced about their ideology or people they attract.

Some people just want a working country - something that APC can never offer Nigerians throughout its existence because it's built on lies, deceits and propaganda

i know Keyamo is also trying to pledge loyalty and solidarity to his Boss buh with his level of exposure i think he should cover is eye is Shame, i doubt he has one

How can festus posit everyone that protest at the front of the senate are bought, even discredit analyst and activist...so where are the Nigerians happy with the state of the nation

Did keyamo dare to listen to morning shows on radio, listen to people call in, are they really in support of the re painted 2022 electoral act, in 2026 govt is still proud to shout No network as justification.

We shouldnt trust Activist, Analyst and opposition Buh who told Festus we can think or know what is right for us.

keyamo is a Beneficiary of Tinubu, what logical stand does Keyamo have to tell Nigerians who to trust undecided

the way they rushed to sign the Bill, proves they know what they didnt do the right thing

But in as much as I want to agree, I disagree 😔!!

Look at how quick they are to sign bills into laws but not quick to stop banditry and kidnapping.

Miteeeeew!

Abeg next
Let me educate you on why Tinubu quickly assented to the bill.

Tinubu was looking at the provisions for 360 days before the election bcoz if he didn't sign it immediately that means it's the 2022 Act that would be used in 2027.

A dying Tinubu is far better than an agile Obi agulu man who takes advice from a mad man. A man who doesn't have a mind of his own. Can't you see how Atiku is tossing him around?

I agree with Festus. Majority of the Senate and rep members voted for what is now passed into Law by PBAT.
That is in itself the wish of majority of Nigerians. If you voted someone to represent you at the senate. Whatever they do there is a reflection of your wish and desire. If you aren't happy with your senator for voting against your wish, it is your responsibility to recall them or vote them out in the next election. It isn't for you to transfer frustration on the President for the decision the senate members representing YOU made.
Court will decide the law

The goal should not be who speaks for Nigerians, but what truly improves the credibility of Nigeria’s elections.
And who is to define and determine what works for Nigeria's elections ?
Re: Festus Keyamo Tackles Journalists, Activists Who Kick Against The Electoral Law by hopeful95: 11:24pm On Feb 20
I agree with the crux of his argument.

Without any scientific polling of opinions, I believe journalists should desist from using a phrase such as 'the generality of Nigerians' When in fact they are stating their personal opinions.

Is it now that the opposition deem right to be discussing about electoral process?

They didn't even consider the logistics part of INEC.

Election is just a year but the opposition figure are not even sure of which party they will be contesting not to talk of who to vie as president.

They have failed to plan, inevitable plan to fail
What concerns the opposition with electronic transmission of votes, It is something that will give credibility and transparency to our electoral system. After all we are Nigerians before political parties and as such we want a progressive country, to drive a point to the ruling class both those in rulling and opposition parties that the citizens can vote in or vote out hence they will start doing the right thing. Again power is transient, many people have been there likes of Obasanjo, Good luck and blessed memories of Yaradua and Buhari and others. So let the right thing be done that will favor the masses.

The house of Assembly are only serving themselves and what they will get, they don't have Nigerians at heart. I hope a time will come that we can get it right with our electoral system being credible and transparent. You are a Nigeria and should always strive for what should make a strong institution to make our country Better.

Lol...I laugh in swahili...so the 94 senator's and the 300 house of reps now represents the whole Nigerians abi?...it is well
Re: Festus Keyamo Tackles Journalists, Activists Who Kick Against The Electoral Law by Owontime:
Absolutely 💯, unless you don't understand the meaning of democracy. The senators and rep members represent their constituencies and as such- they are the voice of their constituencies. If your senator belongs to the minority and doesn't have a voice in the chamber then that's your problem.

What's now the difference between the 2022 and 2026 electoral act?

So suddenly even a whole Keyamo is against real-time transmission?

Whether there are divergent options, is Keyaamo so stupid not to know that electronic transmission of results it far better and modern way
if he is stupid and a billionaire what are you

When I look at Festus Keyamo, I can’t help but wonder what the late sage Gani Fawehinmi would think today.

A man who rose to prominence as a human rights activist now seems far removed from the ideals he once championed.
gani died with no solution
He is not following that foolishness
