According to this school of thought, if you examine the definitions of corruption as described by the World Bank (WB) and Transparency international (TI), the vacillations and rejection of the amended Electoral Act, under shallow pretenses, is a form of corruption. To explicate the latter position, the WB defines corruption as a situation where “public office is abused for private gain”; while TI describes corruption as “the abuse of entrusted power for private gain”. Let me summarize the electoral bill. 2015 election was a big step forward from previous elections. However, there were some loopholes observed which enabled people to exploit the process. 75% of places where these loopholes were observed were places where Buhari won election in 2015. NASS has decided to seal these loopholes so we can have better credible elections, but Buhari has refused, giving flimsy excuses. He intends to exploit these loopholes again to win re-election. This is crazy! Democracy is supposed to be about the choice of the people, not the wish of the politicians. Buhari is a threat to Nigeria’ Democracy! Transparency International slammed Buhari’s government as being more corrupt than previous governments before him. Here’s the proof: https://www.nairaland.com/4883004/transparency-international-shows-corruption-worse 132 Likes 5 Shares |

Buhari has become a clog in the wheel of progress in this country. A typical sit-tight African ruler. After benefiting form an improved electoral process, he wants to derail further improvement. US, UK and the UN should pressure him before he plunges us to avoidable chaos. We are still battling Boko Haram. 72 Likes 1 Share |

• Section 18 amendment - Alter the time frame for replacement & issuance of the replacement voters card from 60 days before polling day to 30 days before polling day Note - This was amended from 30 to 60 days in 2015 specifically to give INEC more time to focus on the election At first, they removed card reader from the electoral bill, Buhari refused, they then removed counting of votes, Buhari refused...But it is Buhari that doesn't want free and fair election...Most of the people crying have not even read the so called amended EA � 18 Likes 1 Share

NASS will veto the Presidency and pass the electoral amendments this week by God's grace. Even a blind man can see APC is naturally in disarray, the saboteurs like Amosun and Co have not even started. Jubril can not even start campaigning. Osinbajo is just struggling to save face as he's now carrying out duties that should be done exclusively by Buhari. 28 Likes 3 Shares |

dre11: What did you expect? SMH. You want Buhari not to use his underage almajiri without PVCs to win the election. The NASS is the only hope now but with APC reps and senators not going against the party, that bill seems dead on arrival. As usual, our docile people will not vote such people against the two thirds majority to veto the bill out as payment for the consequences SMH. I have given up on this country, just finding the money needed to go out. It will probably take a century, even more unfortunately, till our docile people start making our leaders accountable. It is this hard during Buhari's first term, I shudder to think what will happen when (yes I said when because the 2019 elections will be highly rigged unfortunately even though I am Atikulated) he wins thee second term. Time to get my visa out of this country by at most 2020. 5 Likes |

PDP should continue in shading shadow all their lives. They keep sponsoring people to write trash just to create confusion in the nation but they've failed . PMB won't sign the bill, the national assembly should veto the president and let's see how serious and powerful they are. 15 Likes 3 Shares |

The greatest problem I see in Nigeria today is the inability of people to call a spade a spade due to political affiliation, tribe/religion or self interest. How long shall we continue to tread on this route simply because of our zeal to hold on to power? Say no to threat of democracy! 15 Likes 1 Share |

That's why sometimes I consider democracy to be a fraud. The representatives of the people made a law, one man in the name of President refused to sign the said law for selfish reasons without regard for the will of the people. 10 Likes |

Very uninspiring attempt to paint evil as good. Your badly written law that seeks to be grounds for confusion by stating results can be announced while removing the clause counted. .. can only be the way forward for crooks and criminals . More importantly we are a month or 2 away from elections why should there be this unholy rush to amen the electoral laws. Wasn't not this same useless body of lawmakers who went on recess thereby putting on hold the passage of FCT budet and other critical appointments? 3 Likes 1 Share |

kings09: First address the criminality introduced in the electoral act quoted in the picture below. May all enemies of Nigeria never know peace including you. You people keep ignoring the criminal inclusions in the electoral acts but wants to bamboozle the president into signing it. Whoever supports that electoral amendment with the criminality below shall by the grace of Almighty God never experience peace till the end of his miserable life. 5 Likes 3 Shares
