If you've been observant, for sometime now, the supporters of this government (of which I was once an ardent one and still partially is) never cease to throw it to the faces of people who say that Buhari will not win re-election with this cliché: "those who vote on election days are not on the social media". That's to mean that no matter how people complain on the Internet about the many obvious failings of this government (of course, it has its successes too), the complaints are irrelevant and would not affect the outcome of the election. Because, according to them, the 'real voters' are not on Nairaland, Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, etc. Let's assume the majority of people in the age range 45-65 are not using the Internet. What about their children, grand children who are, and can easily convince their aged or not-very-educated parents and family members who to vote for? https://i0.wp.com/media.premiumtimesng.com/wp-content/files/2015/01/APC-Campaign-in-Awka1.jpg?fit=800%2C501&ssl=1 https://www.nigerianmonitor.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/social_media.jpg http://america.aljazeera.com/articles/2015/3/19/social-media-plays-key-role-in-nigerian-elections.html https://www.iafrikan.com/2015/07/14/twitter-facebook-social-media-elections-nigeria-2015-buhari-jonathan/ Lalasticlala |

Even on Twitter, you hear the likes of Omojuwa, Jag Bros, Ogundamisi saying the same thing over and over again, forgetting that the supporters of Goodluck Jonathan said the same thing, and the rest, they say, is now history. |

Let me help you puncture it well sef !!! Nigeria has 180 million people and of these 64 million are franchised to vote , Nigeria currently has about 165 million active mobile phone lines and of these about 103 million have an active form of social media data bundle monthly .... this clearly proves that the Number of Nigerians with access to the internet on the mobile devices today are far more than this so called people Buharist claim don't come online .... The evil Buharist use that narrative to prepare the game for their plans of massive rigging in the 2019 election where there is a plan to announce very fictitious results across board and the they will say aha we told you the people that vote are not online |
