It should reverse if you want to win. or at least get the youth momentum. You Sir do not have the same Charisma as Obi - Obi has to work on his speaking ability sha. IMO.
That actually should not be Illegal. Banks can set how much you can withdraw. Can you imagine if everyone withdraw 1M from their account. Banks would have borrow to pay everyone. It you need large sum walk into a bank.
Of the Multitude of places of worship worldwide. Why would you take this as an example and make a conclusion about the state and health of the Christian Church. But for Nairaland - This should not be worth news.
Finemoore: Within Agege community where I live in Lagos, APC was few days to election asked their party supporters to collect people voters cards for reason known to them. Once they have the voters card, ur acct number with be written with the card numbers. Since three days ago, they have started credit those acct with 10k each. Is that not a vote buying? How will person now tell me that BVAS won't hack?
Those are 2 different things. Getting peoples voters card you just get people to stay in queue for those people and pay them. Hacking BVAS means what ? Each PU has one BVAS. That just means you are voiding the results from one PU .
DeOTR: If the election is conducted 10x Obi won't still get one more vote in places like like Ekiti or Jigawa. Dude doesn't even have 25% in 25 states and you're here yapping dust.
Exactly he may get the popular vote but will not get 1/4 votes from 25 out of 37 states.
streetfabulous: President Buhari has told aggrieved parties in the election to go to court. He must therefore obey the ruling of the Supreme court and compel CBN to do so. He must show that the supreme court can assert itself and must be respected otherwise he has no moral right to tell anyone to seek legal redress. If he fails to obey this order, then nobody will have confidence in the ability of the court to deal with electoral fraud which may lead to extra-judicial alternatives like violent protests. The President must please obey the ruling and compel CBN to do so.
Exactly he can go the court and challenge but to ignore is to promote Anarchy
Ofunaofu: This judgement only affects the ones In circulation
Will CBN print new old 1000, 500 & 200 naira notes
No now ! They print new ones and replace the old ones in circulation in a calm and efficient manner. I find 9 months too long but just as a slap on the face is why they made it that long.
Ruggedniggaone: Thats the fact! We should stop deceiving ourselves obi can't be President with south east and south south votes alone if election is conducted 10× as long as Atiku and Obi are contesting in a different party none of them will win, the highest Obi can get is majority votes but he can never get 25% in 24 states except Lagos state Obi will always struggle to get 25% In the remaining south western States same thing with core northern States.
That’s the truth but the issue Sir Atiku is that people especially the youth may not have voted enmasse for PO as VP candidate under PDP. Places that PO won would have been split between you and Tinubu and Lagos would have been Tinubu’s for sure. Nobody especially a president wants a vocal VP. VP are usually seen not heard. Same reason why wike was not chosen he’s too outspoken. What would have worked is a PO president and Atiku VP. But I understand how that looks in this side of the world. Kennedy had an older Johnson as VP Obama had older Biden Reagan had Bush ( likely age mates ) So you guys aren’t breaking new ground.
If you guys can work this out and accept a PO as president candidate under PDP and dissolve the LP. Then you stand a high chance in 4 years to present the first president of igbo origin.
That’s the highest court in the land that would soon be presiding over election cases. From what you are saying is that they are biased and can’t be neutral ?
Tareq1105: Can you remind us the Section of the Constitution where it is written that election results should be transmitted electronically?
For your information, INEC talked about uploading / transfer / manual collation in its guidelines and not online real time.
Guidelines is purely Administrative procedure for convenience which can change to accommodate unforeseen circumstances.
Remember, Nigeria Constitution is the basis and anything done that is inconsistent with it becomes inconsistent to the level of its inconsistency.
INEC ‘s electronic transmission is a privilege not a right . All parties had representatives at PU level . They signed the result sheet and if I were a party agent would have either manually noted or taken a picture of what I signed. I haven’t yet heard someone say what they signed was different from uploaded form or that signature was fake.
OneNigerianist: I thought as much. This is a constitutional issue not a tribunal issue. More states should join too. Although the issue of not securing 1/4 in Abuja would have made more sense in the supreme court, i didn't see it here.
That’s because it is not an issue. You have to win 1/4 of 25 out of 36 states + Abuja is confusing but it simply means win 25% in 25 states of 37 states ( FCT is considered a state)
Quite funny I never drag wine except socially until about 4 years ago when I started drinking a glass almost every night to help me sleep. I am able to stop and haven’t had a drink in 2 weeks. Moderation is key.
Goodlady: Nairalanders I need your help. Am Having Serious Issues With My Fiance Because Of Our Political Differences. Pls advise.
I v been trying to explain to him logically why Obi lost to Tinubu. Since Saturday, he was angry cos someone told him he saw me voting Tinubu. He's supporting LP and he's from Delta. Shey na me be INEC chairman or Tinubu that defeated Obi ni? I told him that APC ll win cos APC prepared for the elections early, aligned with northern govs, north has higher active voters etc. I tried to tell him PDP are the ones causing hate, manipulations and slanderous publications that normally, Obi is a gentleman that PDP should v fielded. He said he ll win with or without PDP. Now that he has seen the result, he's angry cos I taunted him on Monday that APC ll win as I v guessed. I m a law graduate and student of political science that I read politics, art of war etc including foreign information so I can predict political maneuvers. He believes I m just partisan and he's begining to give me attitudes. He didn't call me throughout Tuesday and didn't visit me last night as he promised and hasn't called since that time. I m mad with him cos he's not seeing my points but I love him. What should I do? Maybe I should just avoid political discussions with him but he's the same person that said he loves ladies that are current o. I m confused cos I actually love him. Right now, we are like the pic described below. I need honest advise cos the past few months has been hectic!
Quite easy avoid political discussions. In my household one supports Megan and Harry another supports the establishment. We agree to disagree. I almost slapped by gf because she was taunting me when my team lost the SuperBowl to the Eagles . I am Pats fan. At the end it isn’t worth it . If one partner cannot argue rationally then just drop it . Lose the battle to win the war ( peace in the house )
Obi only managed 25% requirement to be declared winner in 16 states instead of 24, Atiku managed 25% requirement to be declared winner in 21 states instead of 24.
Tinubu surpassed the requirement in 29 or 30 states.
Peter Obi should go back to school. He has learnt nothing about politics having been a political prostitute and desperate ticket hunter who never laboured but wanted to reap.
Shame on him.
Let Obi and Atiku first settle who won between themselves, then let the victor come challenge the champion Tinubu as he has now moved into the Defence House that he has merited.
Gbosa !!! This is what I have been saying. Obi could have won the populate vote if it’s redone but he will not have the numbers for 25 states of the 36 states plus Abuja. Atiku would have a better claim as he had 21 of the required 25 states plus he has a better spread across the country. I just find that 1. No way Obi wins. Atiku and Tinubu people would up in arms.
Checking the rigging is also easy. Identify the PU and look at the uploaded PU sheets ( all party agents wrote legible their names plus signature ) compare with what we have on file.
I expect a concession speech and a mandate to let their voices be heard through the governorship election. Vote in enough LP governors to prevent what happened from repeating itself.
Actor and Lagos State lawmaker, Desmond Elliot, and other supporters of the All Progressives Congress jubilate as the presidential candidate of APC, Bola Tinubu, was declared winner of the 2023 presidential election.
Elliot shared the video of the jubilation via his Instagram account on Wednesday, where he sang and danced with people in the streets.
Knivesout: He no even fit stand straight…talking like someone that just left a beer_palour ! BAT is the biggest clown that this country has ever produced! Don’t worry, monumental disgrace awaits u on the way! Mark my word!!!!
Can Biden stand up straight . Can Paul biya stand up straight.
The man has won . Let’s heal as a nation and move on.
Idiotseverywher: Scene 1: INEC contracted an Asian IT firm to supply BVAS and build a data aggregator website etc.
Scene 2: APC tracked the company to their country and hired them to create a similar website, Civichive.
Scene 3: APC strategically outlined the States it needs to win to secure victory.
Scene 4: The APC team was given a marching order with billions to compromise INEC Returning Officers of these States, including its governors.
Scene 5: On February 18, APC simulated the results of the elections based on the States it needs to win.
Scene 6: On February 20, APC uploaded the results on its secret website, Civichive and it went live on the 25th.
Scene 7: On the election day, INEC website was taken offline by the same firm INEC hired.
Scene 8: INEC contacted the IT firm to bring its website online, and they sat on it.
Scene 9: Even though, INEC's website was offline, Civichive started displaying election results in real-time.
Scene 10: The IT firm INEC hired brought the website back online having created API and integrated it with Civichive.
Scene 11: Every result accessed via INEC's website was supplied via a backdoor from Civichive.
Scene 12: It took time for the uncompromised INEC Officials to notice this and they switched ro manual collation. .................... The damage has already been done, but there is a way out.
1. Labour Party should set up a Tech Team ASAP. It is good that APC used tech trying to rig the election - the digital footprints are everywhere. This is like someone stealing money from your bank account thinking they have succeeded without knowing the digital trail will lead to them.
2. Labour Party Agents across the States it needs to win to secure victory must submit Forms EC8A & EC8B immediately. These forms must be secured in the cloud.
3. INEC chairman must not be allowed to announce the winner of the election, until Nigerians are told how and where Civichive got its election data in real-time while INEC website was offline., On the arrest of Rhode hackers, the information is, that house at maitama belongs to Femi Gbajabiamila
You’ve read too many Robert Ludlum novels.
It is only APC that rigged the election and lost Lagos State and Kano. ?
The fact that LP stole votes that would have gone otherwise to PDP does not play a factor.?
You forgot that the data was manually collated from PU to Ward to State to Abuja and that if there were discrepancies BVAS would have been selected but as of today only about half of the PU have been uploaded.
The reason for outcry is that people were told that BVAS would upload data directly but due to network issues/latency/ throughput issues it is delayed. But that INEC reserves the right to determine which method to use in collating results.
bencr7: Check any democracy country that always rig election,that country can never be great,and any leader that rig to favor himself can never be a good leader.
You think they don’t rig in the USA. Do you know how many disenfranchised black men are in prison . How the map is reshaped after every election . How far away the polling booths are so people have to bus to the place . The cheat but in style. Nigeria just too loud about it
