Segun Sowumi is nothing but parasite looking for decayed meat to suck from. Segun has never worked in his life but living in heartbrow area of Abuja. Who's bankrolling him?
He opened his dirty mouth to insult Abiola because of Tinubu who's making Nigerians going through hell and agony.

That's alright... MKO struggled and died for nothing according to Segun.

He will come back to deny what he said and try to spin it. We know that many of them don't think before they open their mouths

Dear Nigerians, please be prepared to stone anyone planning to rig the election at your polling unit, let them know that there will be consequences in doing so.
Yes, anyone rigging elections should be stoned. They should have stoned Obi for all the rigging that went on in the SE in 2023.

If you announce election results, definitely you will go to jail. Abiola tries it and he went to jail..Nothing will. Happen. Atiku is so desperate.

It's time.to divide Nigeria now

MKO Abiola victory in the June 12 1993 Presidential election was already obvious midway as results were being announced by the bold and courageous Prof Humphrey Nwosu-led NEC despite the Babangida's govt threat.

Fast forward to today, the hypocritical NADECO moralists and crusaders are rubbing the legacy they can never attain. No wonder the "HOPE-93"mantra they plagiarized ended up as renewed hopelessness. Imagine it was an Igbo man that made this statement. Imagine the nationwide uproar it would have generated by now.

Meanwhile the APC-PCC like other political parties will set up situation( "political war"wink rooms they will be independently collating election results and situation report towards the same objective as INEC.
what I don't understand is why will Buhari n Tinubu accord special recognitions to Abiola n others n leave d INEC chairman out of it?

Okay... We have heard.

But, how hard can it be to broadcast all results LIVE from all polling stations as done in other nations?!!


Anything other than live result transmission is tantamount to manipulation and rigging.

INEC ought to be way ahead of this curve by now.

As you are planning to rig the election be ready for the wrath of the people.
Don't ever think that you will intimidate Nigerians this time around.
If you rig , you get rigged..
Free and fare election is what Nigerians need nothing less.

These are moles in the Tinubu campaign sent to discredit it from within.
This man is an Atiku boy. I don't know how APC can accept such discarded ingrates.

People like this and Bwala are never loyal to a course

People who never loved abiola, same people voted tofa, now turn emergency lovers of m.k.o.

We will collate the results, distribute it online, offline, airways, every wave. Then wait to see how INEC will change it.
Our collation will be FASTER by hours.

No Law prohibits ANNOUNCING POLLING unit results.
No Law prohibits ANNOUNCING WARD RESULTS

The only prohibition is DECLARING WINNER.
This is the way to go....

Is Segun Showunmi insinuating MKO deserved the incarceration?

Anyways, I have always wondered who advised MKO on such move as declaring himself President.

Could have been any of the advisers around him then like Tinubu.

We might never know.

And this imp and the govt he subserves are celebrating June-12 as democracy day? Can you imagine this disparaging statement by a SW politician on a highly reverred character of national hope like the legendary MKO Abiola.

A well acclaimed political figure whose only offense is that he won the June-12 presidential election but that was rubbished by the then military of that time?

It is this how low Tinubu can surround himself with fellow despicable characters. It is obvious the desperation by this useless criminals to impose another fraudulent election upon this nation is driving them paranoid and schizophrenic.
Unfortunately your wailing WILL continue for the next 4 years. Quite unfortunate indeed. Ire oo

Is this man okay? June 12 votes were counted at each polling booth and announced same day. The collation was being updated manually and visibly. It was clear to everyone that Abiola had won but Fedeco (INEC of those days) wasn't allowed to announce because of the annulment. Abiola declaring his victory had a solid base.

It’s becoming clearer those things said about Sangolere seeking appointment with Abacha were true.

Just imagine such statement from a supposed supporter.

Don't give any rooms to APC to change results.

Every party must hv their results posted, with video & pix evidence directly from Polling Units

SAN Agbakoba has enunciated this over & over again!

OK/Kwankwaso will transform Nigeria

A New and Great Nigeria is POssible

Vote Wisely and defend your Votes

If you like collate results under the sea,the only thing that can save your candidate in the court of law are genuine ec8a forms duely sign by the presiding officers and political parties agents in each pooling units.

Why would he denied it. Announce results and go to jail. Easy
One, my comment is about his reference to Abiola. May be you don't know why we have June 12th as democracy day. And as I said, he's coming back to swallow his vomit and I will quote you when he does.

"Tinubu’s Campaign Accused of Threatening Opposition With Abiola’s Fate."

The Bola Tinubu campaign has been criticised over an alleged threat to the opposition, with the statement, “You will go to prison like Abiola,” drawing condemnation over its invocation of the late democracy icon, Moshood Kashimawo Olawale (MKO) Abiola.

MKO Abiola, whose struggle for democracy remains a defining chapter in Nigeria’s political history, endured arrest and detention following the annulment of the June 12, 1993, presidential election. He later died in detention in 1998.

Critics have described the reported remark as an attempt to weaponise Abiola’s suffering for political intimidation, arguing that invoking his ordeal against political opponents is a distortion of his legacy and an insult to Nigerians who fought for democratic rule.

Segun Showunmi has also come under criticism over the controversy, with opponents questioning what they describe as an attitude of political arrogance reminiscent of those who defended military rule in Nigeria.

The critics warned that political power is never permanent and that those who rely on intimidation to silence opposition may eventually face the consequences of changing political fortunes.


They argued that Nigeria’s democratic history offers a clear lesson: no political force is beyond accountability, and the use of state power or threats of imprisonment against opponents undermines the principles of democracy that Abiola’s struggle came to represent."
When people show us who they are, let's believe them.

Why won't Shogunle Oshowurumi lose his senses when Tinubu just bought his brain with an appointment into his lule Presidential Campaign Council and appointment of his wife into a very corrupt position as INEC's head of operations to help them do the rigging come 2027, no Nigerian should be surprised....their loyalty comes at a price; contract, political appointment, monthly stipend, some bags of rice or promotion at their slavery government work shocked shocked
