Elections: Collation suspended in Kano after result sheet of pending LG is torn

March 11, 2019 Sani Tukur


The collation of results at the Kano State collation centre has been suspended by the state’s collation officer, Bello Shehu.

The decision follows the disruption of collation of the result from Nasarawa Local Government Area, the only local government whose result was yet to be announced.

The state Resident Electoral Commissioner (REC), Riskuwa Shehu, who briefed journalists, observers and party representatives at the State INEC office early on Monday said suspected thugs invaded the local government collation centre and disrupted the process.

“As we were waiting to reconvene with the intention to continue with the collation, we heard a disturbing report that just as they were about to conclude, results collation in Nasarawa local government were disrupted and the result sheet torn away and there was a lot of commotion and the police had to rescue some people.

“As it is now, we don’t have the result and even the E. O. (Electoral Officer), had to be… Luckily, nothing happened to him. He was saved from the crisis


“But the intention of the commission is that we are going to refer to our primary and secondary data of results that were collated from the polling units as well as the ward level.

“When we get the results in the presence of all the representatives of political parties, we will regenerate the results and we will confirm those that are acceptable within our laws and guidelines and those that have to be cancelled because the card readers will have to be referred to as well.

“Based on that, we will have genuine results and we will complete the collation for the state governorship election,” he said.

Declaring A Winner

The state collation officer, Mr Shehu, a professor, had earlier said that his team has been looking at the cancellation of votes which he said is “quite a large number.”


Mr Shehu said they are still trying to “segregate and get as much that is zero votes against cancellations.”

He said, “It is when we get all this that we will be able to put the results together and declare, looking at the margin of win and be able to declare if there is a winner.”

Speaking on the matter, the Kano INEC REC said based on the regulations of the commission, it is clear that “where manual voting was done, it is not about cancellation of the votes; it is about scoring zero.”

He said the commission will now segregate all the cancellations made from all local government areas as compiled and presented and then isolate “those that are not genuine cancellations which have been recorded as zero and those that actually should have been cancelled based on our guidelines will be cancelled and then the collation officer will continue with his job.”

No time has been fixed to reconvene and conclude the collation but the collation officer said all concerned will be communicated whenever the results from Nasarawa are ready.

Results from 43 of Kano’s 44 local governments had been announced and the PDP candidate, Abba Yusuf, was leading the incumbent governor Abdullahi Ganduje of the All Progressives Congress (APC).

While the PDP candidate has so far scored 960,004 votes, Mr Ganduje of the APC has 953,522 votes.

This Delta result might just nullify kano because Atiku is doing so well in the North.
Meanwhile, majority of results released so far have been in APC strongholds and Atiku has done well surprisingly. Atiku has won Ondo in the SW. By the time SS, SE and NC start coming in, we should have an idea how far.

Atiku has already won Oyo too. He won 18 LG out of 32 announced so far. While Ajimobi the sitting governor has been defeated by the PDP candidate.

Wild jubilation as Atiku loses own polling unit to Buhari. Vanguard Newspaper

President Muhammadu Buhari has defeated the candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party at his polling unit.

Wild jubilation broke out following the announcement that Mr Buhari scored 186 votes to defeat Mr Abubakar. Mr Abubakar’s loyalists were quick to play up the figure as a remarkable showing for their candidate, despite its closeness, saying the unit has been historically won by Mr Buhari, who has stood in every presidential election since 2003.

The results from Mr Abubakar’s polling unit are amongst some of the early returns trickling in from across the country in today’s presidential and federal parliamentary elections.

What a filthy result! How many votes did Atiku get?

That man in front of him should have slapped him for violating the law! You must comot for that Aso rock by may 29 ma Sha Allah! Atiku is our next president.

Eye service spotted

Read meticulously, he said he contributed nothing except his time.

This same woman that supervised massive corruption in Nigeria

I don't think you have ever seen goodness in any human being in your life. You are one of the bad apples we have in this country. Shame on you!

But Buhari said he is poor! APC and their supporters are fools for allowing the Fulani failure to scam them. Buhari must go!

olujastro:
Nigerians need to learn that proceeds of corruption causing money to circulate and trickle down to the masses doesn't mean the economy is flourishing.
It simply means that we've eaten our future now.

This is what the PDP stands for and their 16yrs of sharing the national cake has really messed up the psychology of Nigerians as to how an economy actually functions.

Your future relies on an industrialised economy outside oil, built on critical national infrastructure.

Be wise and vote wisely.

Go and sell your ideas to your fellow APC members. APC steal and eat alone. Are you telling me Tinubu is a saint? What of Amaechi? Oshiomole, Buhari and Mr lie? Swear with your life that members of APC are not corrupt. You have no future with APC be wise!

donphiilopus:
Kwankwaso pulled similar crowd when he visited Daura for a Senatorial by-election campaign rally in August. But what happened when the by-election results were declared? PDP struggled to get 20% votes even though the election was between two blood brothers.

I'm laughing sha... Atiku might not get one vote in Buhari's polling unit but the possibility of Buhari's victory in Atiku's Adamawa is so high.

You are very funny! Buhari winning Adamawa and Atiku not getting one vote in Buhari's polling unit! You need to wake up. If you fail to believe what you see with your eyes then an angel can't convince you! Reason with the best sense God has given you

Where are the youths and women?

danot1030:
Fake pictures, although it's necessary since ipobs and pdp supporters feeds on lies, fake news, false alarms and propagandas, they should be hungry now as it's about two days pdp and their agents fed them with lies last.

I can't just immagine APC accusing PDP of propaganda! Like leaders like followers!

edlion57:
I hope he is voting for atiku...he just der tour the whole of Nigeria... though I like his spirit...but the truth is that charity begins at home ..he should go bck to his village and contest for Senate...then we all can trust his ability

He is not smart all. This step is too big for him now.

Arysexy:
Look at the mark of the beast on his forehead, Afonja Muslims have no honour. Shame on him

You are a f......l for saying Afonja muslims! Why generalising it?

The crowd are even confused!

Fantastic!

braveboy64:
why?

Your thought about the crowd. Atiku owns Adamawa while Buhari owns kastina. Don't ever think of APC winning Adamawa.

braveboy64:
Atiku won't win his state InshaAllah
Sai Baba till 2023.
But Hausas are really wise ooo they will go to Atiku and Buhari campaign but they will still vote for Buhari

I pity you!

Take the result to INEC office for declaration!

What a dreamer!

The AAC Candidate for Warri Federal Constituency House Of Representative Candidate, Freedom Atsepoyi popularly known as Mr Jollof took to the street of Warri a massive crowd on his rally. The Social media preacher who has always shared his opinions concerning the Nigerian political system has decided to act rather than talk. He scarifies himself for the people and the people from the turnout are ready to support his ambition as the Freedom for Warri people.

See photos below; https://legit9ja.com/2019/01/massive-turnout-for-mr-jollofs-rally-in-warri-delta-state-photos.html

Where is the crowd?

WeRblessed:
Why do you think he is wasting his time? At least he made a move, trying to librate you from the shackles and bondage that men older than your great grand father has placed all Nigerians in the name of politics.

You continue to complain about the situation of things in the country but when someone tries to help you open your eyes, you say he is wasting his time.

Continue, bye.

Help me in what way? Tell me he will not receive salary and bonuses when he get there. With your eyes perfectly working, ears not blocked and your brain not malfunctioning, do you need anyone to tell you the leading candidates among the presidential aspirants. I only pity him not to waste much money now. The choice of the majority is far away from sowore. This is not a university election. He only need awareness now, that is why i dont want him to waste both his time and resources. He has just started is long journey into Nigerian politics.

omooba969:
Coming from a youth, shame on you.

Try to see beyond your Goliath & Never say Never!

U gerrit?

How do you think he is not wasting his time with that scanty group? I only speak the truth.

yarimo:
PDP go and campaign to Nigerians and stop fabricating stupid and provocative audio, lying to Nigerians can not make you defeat president BUHARI. AMEACHI the lion of the niger delta please don't mind the Loser party.

Something is missing and i pray you find it!

Dont waste your time pls

Why now? There is no problem you can't overcome, it only takes time! sucide is not the best option.

To the oppress and depress, think twice!
Seek for advice! There can be solution!!
Move closer to your God!
He is ready to lead you through!
Seek God!

LIFE IS NOT MEANT TO BE TAKEN BY ANYONE, EITHER YOURS OR OTHERS!

I'll remind u of this post at seasons end. Kopp is not a trophy coach

Did you know he won the league with Dortmond?

What a trash Pageant!

Angelfrost:
That can only happen if this Man City side drops in terms of quality... If without Aguero and De Bruyne, they are this dominant, just imagine what/how they will be when those 2 return soon.
Also remember that both will also face Spurs, Chelsea, Arsenal, and United (who will hopefully have gotten rid of Mou) again, with City standing a far better chance against these sides...
Lower table teams have a far higher tendency to make Liverpool bleed points compared to City that basically makes mincemeat of them.
Not impossible for Liverpool, but highly daunting... So, pipe down with the wishful thinking. The team you beat today has already been raped by Mid-table sides this campaign.

I dont think you watch liverpool games this season. Only drawn 3 matches. Man city, Arsenal and Chelsea. The remaining teams were beaten

Dem don dey go one by one!

How old are you?
