Drama As Bauchi Women Kiss Ballot Paper, Shout ‘sai Baba’ Before Casting Vote by abc115(op):
Some female voters at a polling unit in Bauchi caused a stir when each of them kissed her ballot paper and shouted “Sai Baba” before casting her vote. Newsmen report that the drama, involving some women, occurred at the veterinary polling unit of Dawaki Ward in Bauchi metropolis.

Their action raised suspicions that the women might have mistaken the Bauchi South Senatorial by-election for the forthcoming general election, which will feature President Muhammadu Buhari as a contestant.

“Sai Baba” is the common phrase used by supporters of President Buhari while campaigning for him. The women declined to comment when contacted by newsmen. Presiding Officer in charge of the polling unit, Miss Faiza Mohammed, however told newsmen that turnout of women was impressive, with some of them, over-enthusiastic. “The women are very excited and eager to cast their votes; some of them were kissing their ballot papers and shouting ‘sai Baba’ before casting their votes. “I do not know which ‘Baba’ they are referring to,” she said.

2019 Presidential election has already been won and lost. Dunno why the PDP guys are still being hopeful. Please how do you guys intend to defeat a man that's so loved by the masses? Even if PDP is allowed to field seven candidates on a joint ticket, Buhari will still defeat them.

APC is built around Buhari not ideologies. which is ridiculous..

This is just a sign of Buhari's great following among Nigerians. Nigerians should vote Buhari. And Buhari should never ever disappoint Nigerians.

If PDP has had someone with the pedigree of Buhari as their presidential flagbearer in the past 5 presidential elections, we wouldn't have been where we are today and will not even have the need to vote Buhari in 2015.

I have spent days telling PDP apologist this on NAIRALAND

Buhari is like a religion in the core north grin grin

Akpbio is a lot of things, but he is definitely not stupid

This is what he must have seen before defecting

Buhari will get votes in some northern states no doubt, but not as massive as in 2015.

Many of the people that helped him rig, especially in Kano's 2 million votes, are in opposition now.

what about those that got him 1.6 million votes in 2011


FYI, he got 1.9 in the last election.

You just can't campaign against the guy in the north. The sooner you understand this, the better

In 2011 when Buhari had 1.6m votes under CPC in Kano, Kwankwaso and Ganduje were in PDP contesting for the governorship seat on a joint ticket while the then sitting Governor, Shekarau was in ANPP and was the flag-bearer of his party for the Presidential polls.

Then he had nobody in Kano other than the masses. Today, he has a sitting Governor, two Senators, majority of the House of Reps members from Kano and majority of the State House of Assembly members. So how do you expect him to lose there? Their defection has nothing to do with Buhari's chances.

Besides, you guys claimed Buhari has lost Bauchi when two APC Senators defected to PDP from there. Now, APC has won another Senate seat there while PDP came distant third. Truth is that most of those guys have no electoral value.

Buhari already has the whole Southwest, Northwest and Northeast save Taraba in his pocket. He only needs to win (in) Edo and three other States plus FCT in the North Central, which he would easily get.

But boys go wail till 2023 sha grin cheesy grin cheesy

Down in Otuoke, I am sure someone we all know does not enjoy this type of support.

If anyone really believes APC would be booted out 4years into government they are mistaken.

Oshomole like I have said would not loose the 2019 election under his watch (that man is a cunning thief).

Dogara had been clever enough to observe unlike tambuwal, buhari has been a disaster but he would sadly win 2019 that even saraki, dino may be dealt with by APC not to return to senate

The forces ganging up against Udom are very formidable. If APC can manage Akpabio's defection and the interest of other bigwigs in the party very well, the state may swing to APC.

On the contrary, Akpabio defection is not to unseat Udom, it is to advance his political aspiration at federal level- Senate Presidency.

His defection will affect PDP Presidential candidate not Udom. Udom will be reelected 100%.

Beside, Udom na Buhari first son for SouthSouth/Southeast

Juvenille calculations.

Before 2011, 2015, most people in the North saw buhari as a competent man of integrity, a good muslim. Now that Buhari has shown himself to be an incompetent bunch of failure, he wouldn't enjoy as much fellowship as he did in those years, especially among enlightened Northerners that are not following the herd mentality.

Same thing applies to SW states, Buhari would get far less votes than he did in 2015. Sadly APC has not gained any new ground since after 2015, instead they have lost many territories and converts.

Nursery school calculations.

APC has lost many territories yet APC' candidates are still defeating PDP's candidates in places where you hitherto thought they (PDP) had gained. Hope you saw how Kwankwaso was booed in Kaduna? Hope you're aware that PDP came distant third in the just concluded Bauchi South by-election? Hope you've not forgotten that two Bauchi APC Senators defected to PDP just last month? Yet APC candidate still won election in that same State.

As for Southwest, you don't know anything. So no need arguing with you. If APC could win five States there in 2015 when they had just four Governors, they would lose the Southwest to PDP now that they have the entire six State Governors? Abeg, what do you smoke?

Akpabio is now in APC, he will have to support the candidate of his party. However, I believe Udom will be reelected.
