Still On Ekiti Election by respect80(m): 6:48pm On Jul 19, 2018
According to the result of the Ekiti gubernatorial election as officially announced by INEC, APC was said to have won 12 out of a total of 16 Local Governments in the state leaving only 4 local governments which were won by PDP.

Now check this out

If PDP won just 4 LGs and APC won 12 LGs, how comes the win margin between APC and PDP is just by 19535 votes.
Is it that the 4 LGs where PDP won are 3 times more populated than the ones APC won?

Below is the total result as announced by INEC.

APC- 197,462 winner
PDP- 177,927

NB: I'm just an advocate of democracy and someone who believe in justice and fairness so no insults please, only logical analysis...

Me, when youths clamor for opportunity to participate in politics but still personalize political parties more than their own principles.
That's why corruption is not corruption when you're benefiting from it.

I have heard dis line of argument and i felt really disappointed, well let me say no more on DAT. Now let me ewxplain to u dis way..if for example in ado, APC polled 20,000 votes and PDP polled 19,999 votes. From that figure who won that local govt? APC won eventhough its with 1 vote. Its a simple majority system . no magic there[quotesquote author=respect80 post=69529822]According to the result of the Ekiti gubernatorial election as officially announced by INEC, APC was said to have won 12 out of a total of 16 Local Governments in the state leaving only 4 local governments which were won by PDP.

Good job.
Any critical analysis of this result leaves the whole outcome of this election questionable.

As for those who are so drunk with love for political parties, it's only a matter of time when they will be holding the sharp edge of the knife.
Rather than advocating for better democracy, we the youths of this generation have allowed our love for political parties to be cloud our sense of judgement.
Very unfortunate

No bro, there's obviously something fishy about this result.
From what you said, it means if 4 LGs were to vote for only PDP and 12 LGs vote for only APC, the result would still be the same.
Which is not possible
