Everyone knows the political party that bribes people to vote for them. If it was ADC, EFCC would have already announced it ..now they are quiet because the criminals are from the usual suspects that snatch , grab and run away with it. Shameless people  19 Likes 1 Share |

Nigeria’s "free and fair" dream is starting to feel like a calculated myth. When even a local FCTA election is effectively captured by a single political machine, the warning lights aren’t just blinking—they’re screaming. The strategy is clear: a top-down "grassroots squeeze." By mandating sitting governors to defect to the APC, the administration isn't just seeking consensus; it’s securing the machinery. If you control the governors, you control the structures that count the votes long before they're even cast. Looking ahead to the next general election, it’s hard to stay optimistic. When the architecture of the state is systematically aligned for one outcome, "RIGGING" stops being a fear and starts looking like the MASTER plan. |

Kalashnikov49:You are whining yourself. Vote buying is not limited to any particular party. If we are to go by your logic that APC rigged the election, then does a party in power wishing to rig election need to buy votes again ? That apart, wait until they ascertain the party they were working for before you begin to run your mouth. An ADC agent was caught with 20 voters card, Then, talking about rigging, the obidients who cry the loudest about rigging are the nmost guilty. In the 2023 elections, obidients engaged in brazen tugging spree in Lagos, Plateau and the entire SE. Documented records are available. To add spice to the menu, some obidients are confessing the massive rigging that they perpetrated in 2023. 3 Likes 1 Share |

Without a doubt, we know the election was a sham. You won’t find the likes of Yarimo Helinues Legendhero and co. on this thread. They can’t condemn this kind of bad behavior because, at the end of the day, it’s what they stand for. But when it comes to acting like patriots, they’ll be the first to jump out. It’s surprising that these APC dudes will tell you they are all working for a better Nigeria, but then they clearly make corruption the foundation they stand on and fight those who seek to ensure that protocols and national laws are followed. This brings us to the question: Who are the real patriots here? The extremely brutal, corrupt APC and their crime and corruption supporters, or the opposition, who are seeking due process and the obedience of the rule of law, free from manipulation? Who is deceiving whom? The funny thing is, some of these people aren’t even in Nigeria but are still supporting the evil going on here. They couldn’t even handle the heat they are supporting. Well, my joy in all this is that we all bear the brunt of every bad voting and rigging decision we make. The effects of bad policies from a professional rigging-rogue government know no tribe. 1 Like

You're saying nonsense because I know for a fact that nothing like rigging happened in this election especially in AMAC. All the polling units under my jurisdiction and those of my colleagues in other parts were for the current chairman. They didn't need to even rig sef because the locals were the majority of the voters in this election and they choose their person, simple and short. The residents of the cosmopolitan areas in abuja did not come out to vote and that's why numbers from those areas which was were the opposition focused it's campaign did not help them turn the tide. You'll stay where you are and be spewing nonsense innuendos and assumptions like you know what you're talking about. This results are the reflection of the voters choices. You can either deal with that or in the next election transfer your PVC to abuja and vote because I know that you're not living in abuja at the moment. ponlear: 1 Like |

Wether we like it or not it's APC members that Carries such an amount for vote buying and I can tell you that nothing will happen to those guys once it's APC that sent them. Nigeria is a joking country simply bcus of the useless set of so called leaders we have in government. APC is a complete unfortunate to this Country following PDP mischief years back. The country will continue like this until we are truly willing to change it bcus nobody will come from any part of the world to change it for us. Look at issue of insecurity and power. When a bad leader leads, people complains and cry but when a good leaders leads, pple are happy and things goes well. Tinubu is not good enough bcus he lacks the desires of Nigerians. |
