ainas247: Anytime you see comments like these saying "APC & PDP" are all the same, just know that it was written by an APC voter who is ashamed to admit that they were scammed PDP is not a good party... but APC is the devil's party. While PDP is like a sneaky thief who hides and steals from their victims, APC is a daylight armed robber who robs and kills the victims, burns down the house and threatens to kill anyone who dare confronts him 2 Likes |

ainas247: I didn’t have to do much observing. It is there for everybody to see. Take this article from YESTERDAY’S paper, it raises a sense of outrage even in non-partisan, non-political people like us. Note the bolded. ————————————————————— That Supreme Court Magic Judgment This Day (Lagos) 17 FEBRUARY 2020 ... According to summary of trial materials, no ward collation agent was called to show that at the collation center results were brought from the 388 polling units where the alleged exclusion took place... The petitioner, rather called 28 polling unit agents who came to identify some of the results tendered by the petitioner from the bar. All the electoral documents were tendered from the bar and thus dumped on the court without anybody giving evidence correlating the contents of the result forms with the tabulation done by the petitioner himself. Each of the 18 polling unit agents under cross-examination, manifested ignorance of the contents of the documents and never convinced anybody of being present in their claimed polling units... When confronted with the purported result sheets tendered by the petitioners, each of the witnesses admitted as follows: i. The names and signatures of the Presiding Officers are not well found on those results. ii. The names and signatures of other party agents did not appear on the result sheets, neither could they mention even one party agent of the other political parties in those booths. iii. The result sheets do not contain the total number of ballot papers used and number of ballot papers unused or invalid. The scores of political parties are not clear on the face of the documents. Based on the above, it appears the Supreme Court was desperately working to an answer in favour of the ruling party... and the only opening to do that was to accept the fictitious results of the 388 polling units willy-nilly. And instead of doing substantial justice on the matter, it ended up delivering one of judiciary's greatest infamies which even a kid learning arithmetic can see through. The judgment turned logic on its head, rewrote the basic universal laws of arithmetic and did grave and substantial injury to our democracy and the power of the people to choose who governs them. With this judicial precedent, the Supreme Court has inevitably rubber-stamped political rascality and the judgment could shape our democratic future. The court has widened the opening which politicians exploit and manipulate to get into elective offices. All one needs to do is to stay somewhere, maybe in one's room, probably with one policeman or so, write one's own results, submit to INEC for counting and if it refuses, don't worry, bid your time till you get to the court. With supreme arrogance, the final court of appeal will recognise the results as legitimate, credible and authentic and pronto, you will be declared duly elected. ...Even more perplexing was the fact that in some of the polling units, voter turnout was more than the registered voters. How is this possible? In Uzodinma's result sheets, there was no voided vote and only two parties, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and APC participated and were reflected in the election results of the 388 polling units. Yet, 70 political parties participated in that election and were all reflected in the INEC declared results of other polling units all over the state. ..,Does it mean that other parties such as All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA), Action Alliance (AA), etc., did not participate in the election in those 388 polling units contrary to INEC's results in other areas of the state? Why did the result sheets reflect only two parties when so many parties participated in the said election? Apparently, Senator Uzodinma concocted those results that fly in the face of the basic laws of arithmetic and common sense between the PDP and the APC after the fact that the PDP had won the election and he only scored his party a vote figure higher than the PDP vote. The corollary to that is that if it was any other party that was on the cusp of victory, Uzodinma's results would have been between just the APC and that party! Yet our almighty Supreme Court glossed over all these fundamental anomalies in Uzodinma's result sheets which had been rejected by even INEC... and accepted same as authentic. A further assessment of the result sheets of the disputed 388 polling units showed that the said units are all in the Orlu Senatorial Zone where Uzodinma and the candidate of the Action Alliance Ugwumba Uche Nwosu come from. So even if the 388 polling units were concentrated mostly in Uzodinma's ancestral home, surely, Nwosu who emerged second in the March 9, 2019 election in Imo State and was backed by the incumbent governor at the time, Rochas Okorocha, his father in-law, must have amassed some votes from the units. But these votes were curiously missing, for the simple reason that they forged the results, and very badly at that. Furthermore, Uzodinma of the APC scored an average of 98% of the total votes cast in the 388 units, whereas he scored an average of 13% in the remaining polling units in the state. How could this be? Why was it that it was only in these 388 units throughout the state that the voter turnout was either more than the registered voters or achieved 98 to 100 percent of the registered voters? Please note that emphasis is NOT on the number of accredited voters which is usually far less than the number of registered voters. Uzodinma's fake results validated by our Supreme Court defy reason. The pattern of the results from the disputed 388 polling units clearly shows the improbability of such an occurrence. And on the basis of the testimony of one policeman, and 28 discredited polling units' agents who gave contradictory statements at trial, the Supreme Court accepted the results. In declaring Uzodinma governor of Imo State, the Supreme Court simply annulled a valid mandate freely given to an individual and transferred it to another person who came fourth in the election.

Dov3: Personally, I hold that belief that PDP and APC are the same, and I never voted for Buhari back in 2015...and 2019 myself. Infact, I have made it a point of priniciple never to vote for PDP and APC since my first election in 2003. Not because I am holy than thou, but because as far as I am concerned, both parties are a mess. Plus, why did we have to vote for Buhari (and before him Obasanjo)?? Where are the young new guys and girls? What did they forget in Dodan Barracks that they want to FIND in ASO rock? Not everyone you see here cares for APC or your party PDP. |

Gnaeusmagnus: I don't have a party. I just believe the first step to solving any problem requires that you understand the problem. Having taken time to study both parties, It is clear they dont have good intentions. Unfortunately, APC is clearly worse than PDP. |

madridsta007: ^^^ Fair point. He did support Buhari then - as so many Nigerians did. He has clearly realized his error and is on the road to atonement. He should be given some credit - however small, for that. |
Re: APC’s Historic Swindle, By Sonala Olumhense by madridsta007(m): 1:53pm On Feb 19, 2020 |
VolvoS60: You have a point. However, until someone publicly acknowledges that he or she made an error- in this case, a grave one that has led to Nigerian deaths and a country in seige of Fulani terrorists- we should not assume for the person and suggest that "he has realised his error". He/she had a mouth then. He/she has a mouth now. They can speak if they really want to acknowledge that they made an error. Until that confession is publicly made, the fellow hasnt actually realised that they made an error. Forgiveness isnt assumed. It is requested, through the tongue. We should stop assuming for people, anyway. I think it is belitting. He hasnt made that acknowledged. I cannot give him any credit. |
Re: APC’s Historic Swindle, By Sonala Olumhense by VolvoS60(m): 2:13pm On Feb 19, 2020 |
madridsta007: ^^^ Again, fair points you have made. Can't argue with them. I used to read his column (I think it was in the Sun or the Guardian?) then but I haven't done so in a while. It would be interesting to run through all his pieces from 2015 to date to see whether or not he ever publicly admitted his error in backing Buhari for the presidency. He just may have done this. If indeed he ever put in print his regrets in backing the Buhari administration - then I think he's done his bit. The climate then was one of extreme frustration with the GEJ administration - and the public were desperately looking for a saviour. Unfortunately, their choice was an emotional one and not a rational one. This administration has been a massive disappointment for those who put their hope in it. They have learned a bitter and expensive lesson. |
Re: APC’s Historic Swindle, By Sonala Olumhense by madridsta007(m): 2:39pm On Feb 19, 2020 |
VolvoS60: If he did, believe me, I would write it here. And will actually applaud him. He hasnt, to the best of my knowledge. It takes a lot of humility to do that, which is generally short supply to the average man. Similar arguments I have with those proposing "forgiveness of Sowore and getting behind him". I am like, "the dude hasnt asked for forgiveness or acknowledged his foolishness and tribalism!". Why should we assume and speak for him? It is improper. We know how this goes. If someone does not publicly acknowledge his error and goes the extent to give reasons for his foolishness, it suggesrs that (1) he has no regrets and (2) given a different day and period, he will still undertake that foolishness. It is important that we make no assumptions for these indivuduals, Buharists, like I call them. Sonola inclusive. 1 Like |
