Questions
1. Why would PDP want to use thugs in areas it is almost certain of getting most of the votes( as some are accusing the PDP). Who stands to benefit if there is chaos in the south.
2. What is the role of the army in the electioneering process as stipulated by the constitution
3. Why isn’t the north being targeted since they have the highest voting strength
4. If Atiku wins this election, what does that mean for Bola Tinubu’s political aspirations.
5. If the North always wants a different president from what the south( SS ans SE to be more specific) wants, is it not better to split the country as to eliminate the 95% vs 5% treatment?
Please mature answers only. No insults please. Thank you.

I have said it time and time again if Nigeria misses this opportunity to remove this bigot and half integrity backward thinking man Buhari, it will take us more than 20years to recover.

On the other hand, here is Atiku they claimed could not visit the US yet he went conquered and came back peacefully.
Here is Atiku they are calling thief meanwhile not even EFCC have summoned him for questioning let alone arraign him court.
The same Atiku Tinubu said was the one that could make life meaningful for Nigerians, the same Atiku APC complemented highly for his benevolence and goodwill towards them that they couldn't find a word to describe him especially after he single-handedly funded Buhari campaign in 2015 that they called him a "true asset". It will be very shameful for the same APC party to call the same asset a thief just because he decided move from darkness(APC) to light(PDP) to be able to rescue his country from misrule and the world's poverty capital tag.

IF BUHARI KNEW WHAT INTEGRITY WAS HE WOULDNT ALLOW A CRIME ORIENTED TINUBU TO GET CLOSE TO HIM LET ALONE BE IN THE SAME PARTY, HE SHOULD HAVE BEEN ROTTING IN JAIL BY NOW.

Meanwhile Ganduje of all people is still the same Buhari and APC's choice candidate for Kano Governorship, a thief they publicly and shamefully raised his hand after the viral bribery video involving him, what are we even talking about here??. It is likely that anyone that still claims Buhari has integrity needs to check his IQ level cos if he can fall for this scam he can fall for anything.

From all indications Buhari has little or nothing to offer Nigeria as we have already been told by the wife a while ago when she made the expository statement of two men hijacking his husband's Government. Anyone that is thinking of voting Buhari again is clearly voting in these two men and not Buhari, and may calamity never depart from the life of such a person life from generation to generation, he shall be killed like those innocent farmers and villagers from Benue who have lost their lands and lives in their thousands, also may his children be in however condition Nigeria economy is under this evil administration. Amen!!

Daviddson:
If anyone ever told me that Amaechi had thugs or is into violent politics, I'd have disagreed with him. Not until last week that senator Magnus confessed how Amaechi asked him to mobilise thugs to burn down INEC office in Rivers back in 2015. I won't be surprised if he's currently one of those preparing armed thugs to cause confusion in the Niger Delta.

if Magnus is senseless, we all are not.

Why is he saying that now? What would Amaechi gain from burning of the INEC office in 2015 when he was already overpowered by the federal might? Burn inec to gain what exactly?

It is because pdp have never won the niger delta through a credible way,they do so usually through rigging,intimidation,violence with the aid of federal might.
The north isn't targeted because buhari usually wins there in a free and fair manner and violence rarely happens there during polls.

Atiku is extremely desperate now. He can’t stand the heat. He might have deceived gullible Nigerians who have quickly forgotten his past with dubious promises and fake crowds but now that zero-hour is upon us the thief wants to rig because he knows he doesn’t stand a chance against Buhari. No matter what he tries, he will be sent on political retirement this month...he must be sent on political retirement this month. Atikuloot!! Atikulooters!!!

Kindly point out where Atiku's name appear on the post.

Its good to think before you post comments, so that you won't sound stupid.

They don't need to mention any party. Those of us in SS knows that Div 6 is Niger Delta and PH is their headquarters. So Wike is the one controlling for PDP in SS. They will smell pepper this time.

MY FELLOW NIGERIANS LET'S ASK OURSELVES

1) DID NIGERIA EVER IMPROVE OR MOVE FORWARD IN ANY ASPECT UNDER PDP SINCE 1999?
2) DID ANY PDP AGENDA TO MAKE NIGERIA A GREAT NATION EVER WORK FOR US SINCE 1999?
3) IS THERE ANY RECORD OF ANY SUBSTANTIAL ACHIEVEMENT OF Atiku AS VICE-PRESIDENT THAT WE CAN BE PROUD OF ?

VOTING FOR Atiku AND PDP AGAIN IS LIKE COMMITTING POLITICAL AND ECONOMIC SUICIDE

Atiku PLS LEAVE NIGERIA ALONE AND GO BACK TO CAMEROON

8 YEARS OF Atiku IN OFFICE HE SOLD OVER 100 NIGERIA ECONOMIC ASSETS AND LOOTED ALMOST HALF OF THE MONEY THATS WHY OBJ WAS NOT HAPPY WITH HIM

Atiku AND PDP AGENDAS ARE

1)TO SELLOFF OUR MAJOR ECONOMIC RESOURCES
2)PUT NAIRA ON FREE FLOW
3)GRANT AMNESTY TO CRIMINALS
4)ENSLAVE NIGERIANS TO HIS AMERICAN BOSSES
5)ENRICH HIS FRIENDS WITH NIGERIA TREASURY

OPERATION SAY NO TO PDP & CHIEF THIEF Atiku

Atiku is not the best candidate within the presidential aspirants but he's way ahead of PMB in all aspects of nation building.

We need someone that will unite the country, not a divisive figure head.

Nigeria for the past four years is so divided on ethnic and religious line like never before.

You know when you guys say this trash it is really annoying. Nigeria is divided along ethnic and religious lines and it is Buharis fault. It is Buhari that goes online 24/7 shouting Afonja! Flattie! Yoruba Muslims!
Your party lost an election and you all became a seething mass of hatred and you blame him?
If the country is divided along ethnic and religious lines it is because of a bunch of hate filled sour losers.

Snatch one ballot box and die once. Snatch two ballot boxes and die twice.

Read my comment again, I didn't say Buhari started it, but we've not been as divided as this.

Check Buhari's appointments over the last four years, you'll see clearly that those appointments were made along ethnic and religious line without recourse to the principles of federal character.

Try to respect people's opinion without insult.

The Sixth Division of Nigerian Army on Tuesday said it had uncovered a plot to use armed thugs in fake military uniforms to cause confusion in Saturday’s rescheduled polls.

The army said efforts were underway to track the source of the weapons being reportedly stockpiled to disrupt peaceful conduct of the elections.

According to a statement issued by the spokesman for the Sixth Division, Col. Aminu Ilyasu, the army would deal decisively with thugs within its area of operation in the Niger Delta region.

“Credible intelligence available to Headquarters 6 Division Nigerian Army has uncovered an unholy plan by some political actors within its Area Of Responsibility.w

“The plot is to to arm and sponsor miscreants in addition to using military-like fatigue dress for deception to cause pandemonium at polling stations for their political gain.

“Covert efforts are on-going to track the source of the weapons and the agents involved in conjunction with sister security agencies.

“Authorities of 6 Division Nigerian Army wish to unequivocally state that anyone found to be disrupting the electoral process under any guise will be decisively dealt with in accordance with the laws no matter how highly placed he or she is.

“To this end, the General Officer Commanding 6 Division and Land Component Commander (LCC) JTF Maj Gen Jamil Sarham wishes to reassure the good people of Niger Delta of providing adequate security for the polls.

“This is in conjunction with other security agencies before, during and after the 2019 General Elections,” he said.

The division applauded the people of the Niger Delta for their cooperation and assistance so far, particularly in the area of providing timely and actionable information and urge them to do more.

Political season is interesting in my country. The way individuals promote their preferred candidate is as if only one person determines the winner. We forget about personalities (candidates) and their party manifesto, their track records. What I can't really figure out is the way educated Nigerians play bias and ethnic politics in chosen their leaders, Omoyele Sowore and Mogelu are begging for our votes but the so called educated Nigerians still prefer old politicians who have failed us before. Nigeria my country, when will our youths be ready to save you from vampires.
