Can it be argued that
1. About 70 percent of the voters who cast their votes for the APC were illiterate.
2. The votes the PDP received from illiterate states where from the minority literate voters?
3. If the voters where more educated, the PDP would have won the election?

More Questions:
Why were the most illiterate states drawn to the candidate of the APC (General Buhari)?
Why where majority of the most literate states drawn to the candidate of the PDP (Pres. Goodluck Jonathan?

I need more spins and reasonable questions from the statistics. . .

Let the contributions begin
Beyond partisan views, your analyses are brilliant. It can then be inferred that sections of a developing country with high level of literacy will tend to be in the opposition as they are an emerging population fewer than majority.

It is unfortunate for Nigeria and it is unfortunate for education. It has nothing to do with me.
Would you tell us you're also a 'Literate'? If YES, then what is "Why where" that you've been writing? Guy, you need to get educated. Product of Jonathan's failed educational system.

Op,
Being educated/literate is one thing, being intelligent is another. There are a lot of educated fo0ls out there. You know many of them by their senseless analysis. I am tempted to say this your analysis is an example, but I will not say that.
The so called illiterates came out in large numbers (especially in Kano, Kaduna and Katsina) and voted to save their lives and that of their loved ones from the stealing is not corruption government. While the so called educated ones chose to Orubebe an election that was peaceful, disgracing the entire nation infront of the global audiance. In their folly, they cried that the election was rigged in those northern states. Even though a careful examination of the turnout rate in those states were just about 50% (they could have recorded 2.5m votes in Kano if they really wanted to rig and it will still be about 60% turnout rate). But the educated fo0ls close their eyes to the above 70% turnout rate in Rivers but chose to continue crying over the normal Kano votes.

Perhaps, it may be due to the population of Kano over Kaduna and Edo.

Literacy rate in Nigeria is still at 60 percent as at last year.

I don't doubt the figures that much.

What do you expect @OP. Illiterates will only vote their kind (Worlds oldest illiterate president).

The aboki* has been pulling Nigeria down since Independence. I say we disintegrate and let then have their illiterate rule them till he dies (It's won't be too long though)

OP you funny cha cheesy. Although i think you're very very correct. The literate states saw beyond the many lies and propaganda of the APC. Also being an educated person you would know that fixing Nigeria is no magic and unless you tackle the issues from the base then it's all just going to be hogwash.

With time we are getting to know how they voted and i wouldn't blame them anyway. Our President-elect is an illiterate voted by illiterates cheesy.
Voted in by those who believe he will..

Stabilize world oil prices...
Equate Naira to dollars...
Pay unemployed 5000 Naira monthly..
Give free meals to tertiary students daily..
Fight corruption by jailing culprits (As if nor be Nigerian court dem go judge the matter undecided).

Well fingers crossed and waiting for Buhari to pull off the 8th wonder of the world, and we know Jonathan's legacy and many of his projects that will bear fruit soon. We will be quick to point it out to them so they can't take credit smiley
If corruption is tackle majority of d probs is half solved. Ur clueless gej has done much abt impunity & corruption.
