Obi’s father & mother were rich, so why they no send Gringory go school for Yankee like Tinubu?
He was in Nigeria looking after the family business from where he was tutored


Where did Tinubu attend primary and secondary school before going to Yankee for drug business?

I'm not in or against the transmission of election results but truly, even you will agree with me that not all villages can boast of network 🛜 in this country.
I was at Ekiadolor yesterday for a wedding celebration and for the over 5 hours that I spent at the wedding, not even my mtn hard network. Imagine yesterday was an election day, what would have the INEC ad-hoc staff do?
Even at Okomu oil axis in the same Edo state, most times workers gat to go uphill to access the network
It is possible that there was no MTn network at the place. I am sure they do POs business there. They must be using other network. Most villages don't have all the networks available to them. It is not possible for Ekiadolaor to have no Network at all. I use to visit that place a lot when the college was still functional.

MTN is much stronger in most places in Edo State. If MTN network is bad, others would be worse.
That said, I will really like to know why some of you guys, if you are one of them, thinks real time transmission of results would translate to Obi winning Tinubu?
I'm from Esan and no Esan person based in Edo state would leave who our brother supports and vote an Obi. Same way no Auchi person would leave who Oshiomhole support and vote Obi. I'm very sure same thing applies to Akpabio, Barau, Yayi, Opeyemi Bamidele, etc. so make una they calm down

I said alternative Internet access and I mean it. Are you not aware of starlink?


That can serve as a backup for where there are no mtn/airtel/glo/etisalat internet network



Nigerian Telcos have also come out to debunk the lies that some villages don't have internet, if INEC partner with them,they can make it available in at least 99.99% of Nigerian polling units. Once the will is there to do it, we will do it.


That was how some people fought against BVAS machine back then. My brother there is no reason not to implement electronic transmission of polling unit election result in Nigeria and make it compulsory for election results collation
Starlink same one Elon Musk owns?
The same Elon must who has repeatedly said he doesn't advice elections to be electronic.
The owner of starlink believes it can be hacked and you want us to use the same starlink that the owner is discouraging his own country from using?
Do you understand that using starlink means you automatically hand INEC over to the US and Elon Musk? You no longer have control over your own elections as a country?

No you are wrong.


Peter Obi's father was a wealthy man.


His mother too was rich through her own personal trading business.


Obi was born into wealthy family and he built on it.


Tinubu was adopted by Madam Abibatu, which is not a crime, but he was from a wretched background before Madame Tinubu adopted him.


Tinubu's source of wealth is questionable and it only ballooned after he became Lagos state Governor in 1999, so Peter Obi and Tinubu are never in the same league.

Peter Obi is from the noble class while Tinubu came from the hood which is not also a crime but it's unfortunate that despite coming from the hood, Tinubu refused to show empathy for the weak, the poor and the helpless in Nigeria through his anti-people policies and careless actions
Why do you guys love doing this, tinubus source of wealth has never been questionable, even the fbi noted he was earning over 2000 usd as at that time before the forfeture case , he came back and still worked in mobil I have an old uncle who was his work colleague back then . Would you now call a role in mobil questionable ?

. Weather obi wins or not is not the reason. For the fact that it will reduce result writing and some form of election malpractice..I think that is a major reason why it should be canvassed for. At least it will more closely reflect the votes of the people. Moreover, the world over is ditching manual method of doing things . It is better we start now and correct the flaws as they arises. It will make our electoral process more trustworthy and strengthen our democracy.
I personally don't believe in this my brother , my vote thing you are supporting. This is why we are not getting it right in this country.
I am an edo man but if I believe an esan man will do a better job. He will get my vote. It played out during the oshiomole governorship election in edo state. We should learn to see beyond this your type of politics.

So you mean to say you don't know there are places where there is zero network in Nigeria?
Take ibadan/oyo expressway. There are villages along the road without network coverage. Same with Lagos/Abeokuta/Iseyin road.

What Tinubu has done for Edo state in just 3 years, Goodluck from same S/S and ND didn't do it for Edo for 6 years + as president and I can make bold to say Obi won't do it for Edo State even if he rules Nigeria for 20 years. Let Obi rule Nigeria, that's when you will know that the Igbos are far more tribalistic than every other tribes. Obi showed a glimpse of it recently when out of 6 Nigerians that played in a recent American Football, he only singled out the 3 that are Igbos for praises. As at today in Edo State, Tinubu is constructing all federal roads , while the governor is doing same with state roads. Not even my political mentor, Oshiomhole enjoyed such from the FG when he was governor. And you are saying I shouldn't support same Tinubu over Obi that I'm not sure if he has anything to offer Edo state?
Finally, this same APC has given Edo State 2 former national chairmen and under the disastrous Buhari regime, Edo state had 2 federal ministers at a time.

When you hear electronic transmission of polling unit election result in realtime, what do you even think? Have you ever participated in any Nigerian election? I have worked as INEC Presiding Officer when I was a Youth Corper.


Nobody is talking about full electronic voting whereby as soon as a voter cast his or her vote, it automatically reflects on the central server in realtime, no that's not what we are asking for, maybe in future we will get to that point.


What Nigerians mean by transmission of polling unit election result in realtime will not take up to 10 minutes to complete and will not consume up to 50 MB data and can be completed even with a 2G internet network of less than 50mbps.


It is done after the last voter cast his or her vote at the polling unit and the INEC Presiding Officer record each candidate's total votes into the form EC8A and signs, then each candidate via his/her party agent counter signs, the INEC Presiding Officer then snap this signed/counter-signed form EC8A with the provided BVAS machine used for voter accreditation and then transmit this snapped signed form EC8A to INEC's central server together with the total number of accredited voters for that polling unit right at the polling unit and it's over.



So the realtime they are talking about is making sure every polling unit election result is transmitted electronically to INEC's central server called iREV from the polling unit and not outside the polling unit where the result can be altered in favor of incumbent government officials.



And if Nigeria want to achieve this, INEC officials can be provided with alternative Internet network access device to use in such remote areas with internet network challenges.



Saying some remote villages don't have access to Internet and therefore we should continue with this archaic, mundane manual collation of election results in Nigeria in 2026 is baseless
If you're advocating for electronic transmission of election results after voting, I don't think we need any extra legislation for that as BVAS can readily do that, must be in all polling units? Don't count on that. When was the last time you did speed test and you got up to 20mb upload speed even in the City? Chief, I reside in Abuja and I can tell you that the highest you'll get in most places would be less than 5mb. In the FCT alone, more than 40% of vote cast won't count because they won't be able to upload their results in the polling units.
And I also want to wish you good luck on doing anything meaningful, even with a 3G network in Nigeria. Once you see 3G, be sure you're nearer to emergency mode than you can ever imagine.

Yes..it can be hacked but so are your email and other internet related activities.
Does that stop you from using email services and the internet all together?
in your opinion...tlis this current manual method of transmission better?
This your last response is a complete disappointment because of your choice of words. Not every one leaves in a face me like you mentioned. There was no need for that.

Bvas already handles electronic transmission while in places where there are no network, manual transmission will solve it... This is the best way. Anything other than this is just been reactive emotionally.
