From the recently concluded ekiti state election it is now known fact that the hunger in the land has put a majority of Nigerians in a position of willingness to sell their votes in an election.
The ruling party handed out N5,000 to each voter, and this aided them to victory in a state election.
This shows that a large majority of Nigerians are available for sale at N5,000 and the ruling party has the cash at its disposal.
PMB won the 2015 election with 15 million votes. Assuming that this time 20 million votes will needed to win the 2019 elections, and PMB stunt hardcore supporters are 10 millions in number, this means that APC would be needing another 10 milion votes to win the election.

Lets do the maths
N5,000 x N10,000,000 = N50,000,000,000 (fifty billion) naira

Lets convert N50,000,000,000 (fifty billion naira) to dollars

N50,000,000,000/360 = $139,000,000 (one hundred and thirty nine million dollars)

$139,000,000 is less than half of the $322,000,000 recovered Abacha loot which the presidency intends to distribute to poor Nigerians. Distributing the entire abacha loot to 10 million poor Nigerians mean that 10 million people will be getting almost 25,000 each to sell their vote. Alsi remember that this unbelievable bank alert distributed to mostly poor and uneducated will come under the remark of "recovered corruption loot".
This implies that with just the $322m recovered Abacha loot, 10 millions Nigerians can get an alert of N25,000 each.

Time for reality check
1. being honest to yourself with the hunger in this land wouldnt you sell your vote which is likely not to count for N25,000 if you have hunger kids at home
2. If offered a contract to find just 10 million Nigerians who would be willing to sell their votes for N25,000 would you reject such contract on basis of being unrealistic? Given the poor people all around you.
Recent statistics show that more extremely poor people live in Nigeria as compared to any other part of the world

This is food for thought.

Think about this to remind you that it would be very difficult to kick PMB back to daura. Ekiti has taught us a dangerous lesson. This is simple maths, for all those who think back to daura 2019 would be as easy as ABC. Alot of people very close to you are extremely poor, hunger and unemployed. And this is a political leverage.
I am talking to you, you, you and you yes you too.

Even God is fully aware that a N25,000 alert to millions of Nigerians few days to an election in the name of recovered corruption loot will alter the outcome of any election in a country attacked by hunger and poverty.

Tell Us how much pdp will spend to loose next year election.
You think it is easy to get 10m votes? That is even why pmb will sweep next year election easily

You are sounding like a very rich man who does not have a clue clue what poverty is. My brother, most Nigerians are poor and miserable as we converse

Lol the hunger in Nigeria is hungry

TheGuyNextDoor:
Only if INEC help him but with free, fair and credible election, even a Local Government will beat like baby

the only man that got a free and fair election in Nigeria got his GCFR crested on his grave for political reasons. Wake up from your slumber This Is Nigeria

All these toddlers analysing politics in the country self.

TheGuyNextDoor:
Only fools will sell their votes for Buhari and APC in 2019....and OP, they can't give #5000 in all states o.

In Ekiti, the Police brought to Ekiti helped them in buying the votes successful but in 2019, each state commands will supervise the election NOT 30,000 officers per state which helped them more.

No matter how much they spend on electorates, it won't be like Ekiti. And don't think the vote for cash in Ekiti won the election for Fayemi ooo....that result was manipulated.

My concern is INEC not their money for now.

I disagree
