With all the challenges around election rigging, I am suggesting that we revert to Option A- 4 (aka Open ballot System).

I recall that APC adopted Option A - 4 for their presidential primaries. Oshomole said then that APC mobilise over 14 million members.
I am of the opinion that we adopt the same Option a - for this election. Option A - 4 involves accreditation and voters queuing up behind the candidates of their choice. In 1993, when MKO Abiola won the freest and fairest election, Nigeria adopted Option A - 4.
Benefits of Option a - 4:

1. No snatching of ballot boxes, so thuggery will be eliminated

2. Accreditation is the only time needed to wait to vote, hence election will hold simultaneously across the nation

3. No need for huge election materials. Only item needed are the authenticated voters list and card readers to accredit voters, there after, voting is done

4. results are announced publicly to the hearing of all voters, party agents, etc.

5. No need for ballot sorting, hence results can be declared within 24 hrs.

... and many more

I can bet that if that is done, Atiku will defeat Buhari by a whopping 20 million votes.

What about the disadvantages?

See the strengths (positives) before you see the negatives (disadvantages), then you will move forward in life! Word of wisdom!!

The Wright Brothers, the first men that flew airplane knew that it could crash, but were focused majorly on flying. Thereafter, the things that make airplane to crash are taken care of.

No, we must compare and contrast.

What if the other alternatives are better than option A 4?

Your arguments is one sided

What is worse than burning election materials, snatching ballot boxes, hijacking electoral officials, thumb-printing at politician homes, openly buying votes, staggering elections to ensure the militarization of the affected areas, etc.

Give me the disadvantages of Option A-4

This system won't work in today's Nigeria, it will result to killing people for options made as whosoever they voted for won't be a secret, we are also going to experience serious revenge in respect to policies.
Don't compare pry election to general election

Is this what we are discussing on this thread?.
Na so una go dey liter the Cyber space with nonsense, have you looked at the demographycal distribution of the collected PVCS?.
If the process is honest and sincere, Buhari will win.
No be everybody be mumu,

You didn't consider the security risk involved for voters. You want people to openly vote against a candidate so thugs will be unleashed on them later.


Vote buying will be made easier.

You even rubbished your postulation by thinking atiku will defeat buhari by 20 million votes.
