Today, after watching the tyrant make that statement. I was shocked. There is a Constitution in this country and it stipulates the penalty for electoral offences. But as always, Mr. Muhammedu, being an Islamist, has ignored the provisions of the constitution and call for his illiterate supporters to kill people.

Today, after watching Mr. Oshomole, frankly speak Hausa in clauses of the speeches, to please the Northern Masters, as a willing slave from the Southern divide, who are great at dividing the South in worship of the Masters, I have finally made a decision.

That, this country, is no longer a place for sane minds and therefore, I have began arrangement to relocate. I have been one of the best minds who believed I could stay put and be proud of Nigeria, but I can no longer be proud to be a citizen of a country where barbarism is celebrated.

It is a shame. That a President, can threaten citizens with Death. It therefore means that El-Rufai was just speaking for his master.

I keep wondering what is wrong with Islam, that those who fall for this religion are almost always crazy.

Don't mind the sinking tyrant and his bunch of occult morons.


They are the ones twisting the word of the murderous tyrant to suit there murderous inclinations. Supporters of this idiocy are the reason there are large scale killings in the land on daily basis.

Nowhere did tyrant mention ARMED ballot snatching. But his hopeless supporters had to import that into the narrative just to satisfy their god's quest for innocent blood. Even armed robbers are not killed extra judicially except in cases of self-defense. It's folks like the tyrant supporters that lynch people on the street for stealing bread. No single value for human life.

The tyrant threatened POTENTIAL "ballot snatchers" with military extra judicial killings DURING AN ELECTION WEEK and they are here and there supporting it.

Shame on all of you, if you are one of those who support this madness.

I support it wholeheartedly. Ballot box snatchers should be shot on site. Snatching ballot boxes is a coup against the nation and coup against democracy should receive death penalty.

Ballot box snatchers don't snatch ballot boxes by asking nicely, they come fully armed and shoot sporadically to drive away election officials, party agents, observers and even security men, before they carry the boxes into their hideout for thumb printing.

It is expected that PDP and their supporters will cry foul, because they are afraid the directive will affect only them. You don't expect master ballot box snatchers to applauded the move as they are afraid.

Why is it that some fools are raising alarm out of the President's statement? Why the panic if we all want a free, fair and credible election?

Fortunately, majority of the voters do not even have smart phones to typing rubbish on internet. Their actions are only known at voting points.

Mohomodu Buhary can never change as a tyrant.
“The Electoral Act (2010), however, does not prescribe death for any electoral
The maximum sentence for snatching of ballot boxes is 24 months in prison.
Section 129 (4) of the Electoral Act states, “Any person who snatches or destroys any election material commits an offence and is liable on conviction to 24 months imprisonment.”
Those supporting this shoot-at-sight order of Buhary should watch their back. RIP in advance to innocent Nigerians who will be labeled ballots box snatchers.

I suspect that you are planning to snatch ballot boxes, please don’t . It’s not worth the risk.

Try the shit you guy get away with in the US and see if you will live to say constitution. Take a gun to where people are casting their vote and attempt to snatch a ballot box and see if any armed officer will ask questions before blowing your head off.

Who is talking of corruption fight? We are not even talking about Buhari's nepotism(which Buhari is guilty of), we are talking about criminals who attempt to steal the wishes of the people by snatching ballot papers during elections. If possible, I will also support shooting all those who alter and allocate votes after the elections.

SO TOUCHING!!!

PRESIDENT BUHARI SPEAKS LIKE NEVER BEFORE.

God knows my heart it is to assure you that I set Nigeria on the path that you will be proud of in the future.

There is difficulty while trying to bring change in the country, but we are trying our best, even our adversaries know we have taken the right course to set Nigeria on track, we offended these money bag politicians and they will never forgive us.

The offence is that, we have blocked all their taps they use for stealing, they now do not care if Nigeria will be up in flames, they can sell even the ashes and fly out.

They have focused on us now with all their might, they want to be allowed to destroy the effort we have made in straightening things so far.

They are not interested even in an
iota of good for Nigeria and its people.

We have no choice, the choice belongs to you people of Nigeria, if you are confident of our efforts, you can vote for us again, so we keep building from where we are.

This will be beneficial to all and if you falsify us then go back to them (moneybag politicians) so they can destroy your future and the country at large.

But definitely you will remember I told you the truth and I have set you on the path of truth and I have lead you truthfully.

The choice is yours on the path of the nation.

I swear in my mind it is not about politics but how this country will turn out to be in the future.

President
Muhammadu Buhari
