A Comprehensive Analysis of the Fake AIT Poll Dataset by Damilola Adegoke

I like to start by saying that I do not want to believe that this particular CSV file is original. I want to also convice myself that it is an attempt by a mischievous person to destroy the name of President Jonathan and to also make nonsense of the African Independent Television (AIT). But if it is true that this came from the African Independent Television, then the Broadcasting Organisation of Nigeria (BON) should shut down AIT immediately because this CSV has been manipulated to tarnish the image of the candidate of APC - General Muhammadu Buhari.

I will like to start my analysis from the nature of the file presented; first a CSV file like every other spreadsheet format file could be manipulated and only a novice or an Information Technology illiterate will accept a doctored CSV log file as an evidence without access to the server log data.

The second evidence against this fake dataset is the fact that all the IPs were attributed to Nigeria; but I like to state categorically that I participated in that Poll from the United Kingdom and my IP was not listed, meanwhile, my entry was captured successfully by the Poll system.

The list should be dismissed by all credible Nigerians as hoax because all the IP purportedly generated by AIT server listed all the IP as Nigerian IPs but this is pure lie of the highest type. Input any of the IPs into an IP tracker e.g. http://www.iplocation.net/ and you will get details about each of them. For instance this particular IP 82.14.62.132 belongs to the United Kingdom and it is registered to Opera System, and this IP voted 9 times for Goodluck Jonathan on that same CSV sheet which they provided. Why is AIT not accusing PDP of manipulating the poll in favour of Jonathan?

This IP 93.186.23.113 voted 3 times for Goodluck Jonathan (check roll 572, 473 and 574) on that list, the IP belongs to a blackberry user in Waterloo, United Kingdom. The user voted on on the three occasion at exactly 13:20:00. It baffles me how a single person can cast three votes at the same hour, the same minute and the same second on three different occasions.

On roll 2 and 3, this IP 41.206.16.26 vote for both Buhari and Jonathan at the same hour, the same minute and the same second (12:45:00 PM) on the same day.

This IP 82.14.62.132 voted 9 times for Jonathan from Carshalton,United Kingdom.

There are several multiple votes for Jonathan on that sheet and for other candidates too, but AIT decided to lie against Buhari with their hoax dataset. I Damilola Adegoke can emphatically and reliably inform you that the file is fake.

I can categorically say that this is a shame and a mockery to our democracy. We are already a laughing stock of civilized societies due to this illiterate manipulations. This is too childish and extremely infantile.

Let me say to all Nigerians that this list is not the original log of the AIT Poll.

If you took part in that poll and you want to confirm if the list is a hoax, simply visit http://www.iplocation.net/ , then click on Find my IP or click here http://www.iplocation.net/find-ip-address.

Click Control F and search for your IP in the spreadsheet. Let us know if your IP is listed on the sheet and confirm agianst the time listed on the sheet.

I want to teach you how they doctored the dataset.

Every IT person knows that IP addresses are allocated by regions or continent. For instance IP which start with 82. is an European IP that is why all the IP 82.145.208.108, 82.145.217.128 etc will show Iceland, United Kingdom etc. Other UK IPs start with 93. and 51. All you need to do to create multiple IP is to get the first and the second parts of the IP, you can auto-generate the rest with Excel Spreadsheet like the doctored Spreadsheet of AIT.

Any IP starting with 41 will belong to African Users e.g. 41.206.16.26, 41.190.14.188, 41.190.3.76 mostly Nigerian. 41.206 is MTN, 41. 190 is Etisalat. Other African IPs start with 102, 197,105, 196 and 154. Only less than 300 of the entrire entries could be associated directly with Nigeria yet the so called factual document from AIT says all the IPs are Nigerian IP. Please use the IP Locator above to confirm for yourself and you will see that this is another sham from a clueless and idiotic campaign Team.

There are 728 unique IPs in the AIT scam Sheet with 522 duplicate values. The whole sheet is a hoax and this is a disgrace to those who claimed to be religious (Christians and Muslims) among these manipulators.

We are not going to fold our arms and allow people without character to deceive our people again. Goodluck Jonathan Campaign Organisation, African Independent Television and the Broadcasting Organisation of Nigeria should know that Nigerians will no longer accept deception. This is a sham and should be treated as such.

@Justwise thanks for all the wonderful works you and others are doing on this forum. Please I need your help. I got this message on Monday: "Your application has been approved and the visa has been issued. We aim to return passports to the VAC within 2 working days. You can check the location of your passport at www.ukvac-ng.com" I waited for the sms from VFS Ikeja to no avail, hence I sent a message to UKVI to know the status of my passport ebcause I intend to visit Ikeja for my passport only to get this message:
"Thank you for contacting the UK Visas and Immigration International Enquiry
Service.

We understand that you would like to know about the current status of your
visa application. I have tracked the status ( and date of birth
) and found that your application has not yet been assessed by an
Entry Clearance Officer (ECO).

Please be aware that a lack of updates on the system is simply part of the
process as there can be a delay (of 2-3) days) due to the many steps and
stages involved.

Your visa application centre or the entry clearance officer (ECO) will
contact you once a decision has been made or, if necessary, during the
consideration of your application. Please contact the VAC for further
instruction.

Though we try our best to complete the visa application process in 15
working days, each application is subject to an individual assessment and
processing times may vary, hence applicants are requested to be patient and
wait for the processing to be completed. You can check how long you'll have
to wait for a decision on your visa application in your country (if you
applied from outside the UK) by entering your details at the following
link: https://www.gov.uk/visa-processing-times. Please note that the actual
processing times may vary depending on a range of factors.

We have service level standards for processing UK visa applications. We
will process 90% of non-settlement applications within 3 weeks, 98% within
6 weeks and 100% within 12 weeks of the application (biometric taken) date;
and 95% of settlement applications within 12 weeks of the biometric taken
date and 100% within 24 weeks of the application (biometric taken) date.
Please note that we define 1 week as 5 working days.

For any further details, or should you need to contact us again please
refer to our website at https://ukvi-international.faq-help.com/, select
appropriate country, click next and then select 'E-Mail form' and complete
as instructed. We will aim to come back to you within 1 day.

Kind regards,


UK Visas and Immigration International Enquiry Service"

Am confused here, who do I believe? The message from Abuja or the one from UKVI (the second message) And is it possible for one to get an approval message from Abuja and still be denied a visa?

Ayanbode Oje a member of the Change Movement Nigeria translated the Nigerian Constitution (1999) into Yoruba Language and We have decided to make the document available to everyone for free.

Yoruba /ˈjɒrʊbə/ (natively èdè Yorùbá) is a Niger–Congo language spoken in West Africa. The number of speakers of Yoruba was estimated at around 20 million in the 1990s.The native tongue of the Yoruba people is spoken, among other languages, in Nigeria, Benin, and Togo and in communities in other parts of Africa, Europe and the Americas. A variety of the language, Lucumi, is the liturgical language of the Santería religion of the Caribbean. It is most closely related to the Owo and Itsekiri language (spoken in the Niger-Delta) and Igala spoken in central Nigeria. (Wikipedia – Yoruba Language)

Our objective is to empower the truly disenfranchised, the oppressed, the voiceless to be able to critically engage in participatory democracy and open governance. Please, this document is not for sale and it is to be effectively distributed for the benefit of all.

We are calling for volunteers to help translate the constitution into other indigenous languages in Nigeria. We are currently working on an audio version of the constitution.

I never c,laim Isaac Newton as an atheist, you claimed him as a Christian, but I debunked your proof, because Isaac Newton is a Deist. In the age when claim of atheist could lead to death, the best those scientists can do in those days is to have a liberal view. But is a christian the same as someone who reject trinity, disbleief all the known tenets of christianity like salvation through Jesus. If you have nothing to say, then keep quiet

Historian Stephen D. Snobelen says of Newton, "Isaac Newton was a heretic. But like Nicodemus, the secret disciple of Jesus, he never made a public declaration of his private faith - which the orthodox would have deemed extremely radical. He hid his faith so well that scholars are still unravelling his personal beliefs." Snobelen concludes that Newton was at least a Socinian sympathiser (he owned and had thoroughly read at least eight Socinian books), possibly an Arian and almost certainly an antitrinitarian. In an age notable for its religious intolerance there are few public expressions of Newton's radical views, most notably his refusal to take holy orders and his refusal, on his death bed, to take the sacrament when it was offered to him.

A diest is somebody who use rationality to explain the universe. He is different from an atheist in that he believes his God is reason. He reject God's intervention in the world. He does not believe in Trinity and he does not have a messiah. So how is he a Christian. If you deny Christ has come in the Flesh according to Paul, then how are you a Christian?

Please let us stop using the fallacy of Appeal to authority to justify our claims.John Newton was a Christian who wrote many hymns, Issac Newton was a Deist. Read up that. Plus that a scientist is a christian does not mean that Christianity is right, There are so many professors who are Muslims, and some follow Olumbaba, A professor is just a teacher.
