If you like go and snatch ballot box .You will die for nothing. Be warned

Don't mind PDP and their wailings. Out of over 70 parties participating in the elections only PDP is feeling very pained by the directive to shoot ballot box snatchers.

Please help me ask him which of the offences is more serious, snatching of ballot boxes during elections or shooting of ballot box snatchers?

Please just stop okay, Nigeria's elections have historically been marred by violence, a good number emanating from conflicts with ballot box snatchers, and an estimated 5.4million lives lost since the fourth republic, how many have been convicted...due process in this country is flawed, and the people that commit these heinous crimes are defective, and don't deserve a day in court!

APC supporters are not democratic at all. Sorry...

My selling point for PMB is that Abuja airport terminal has been completed.

My selling for PMB is that Portharcourt International airport terminal has been completed.

My selling point for PMB is that Biafra Police have collected their pensions after 30 years deadlock.

My selling point for PMB is that fund has been released to complete the 2nd Niger bridge.

My selling point for PMB is that 12 super turcano fighter jets would be delivered to Nigerian Air Force by 2020 to combat further acts of terrorism.

My selling point for PMB is that Ilorin jebba road has been completed.

My selling point for PMB is that Lagos/ Ibadan expressway has reached 60% completion.

My selling point for PMB is that fund has been released to revive Ajaokuta Steel.

My selling point for PMB is that Nigerian Police now witness increment in their salaries.

My selling point for PMB is that JAMB now remitts 5 billions naira annually, while PDP remitted less than that figure in the whole 16 years.

My selling point for PMB is that, he reduced JAMB fees to N3,500 and NECO to N4,000 respectively.

My selling point for PMB is that Abuja to Kaduna railway has been commissioned.

My selling point for PMB is that Lagos to Abeokuta railway has been completed.

My selling point for PMB is that Mabila power plant is now visible.

My selling point for PMB is that electricity production has improved by 65%, the Mega Watt rises from 3000Mw to 7500Mw. The distribution companies' (sold by PDP to paddy-paddy) ability to do their business, is another matter.

My selling point for PMB is that Lagos to Kano railway is under construction.

My selling point for PMB is that Kaduna to Abuja expressway has been rehabilitated.
And lots more...

I will vote for President Muhamadu Buhari, I will broadcast his strengths. I will defend him when assailed by bitter bigots.

He has fought Boko Haram with zeal.
He has kept a lid on the CBN vault.
He has boosted Agriculture.
He is transforming the rails.
He is keen to help the poorest.
He is not morally dissipated.
He is bold enough to focus on uncompleted projects rather than play to the gallery by starting news ones...

So I will retain my hopes.

I know humans can be fickle, so if his sins become disqualifying, I will speak out, but until then, I stand.

I will not make mountains out of mole hills. And I will not join the brigade of the nihilistic.

I don't need any lessons in critical analysis from those who think he is brain dead, who also declared him dead, two years ago and invented Jubril of Sudan.

I think I know enough of health and law to make the right call. I don't need charlatans and rabble rousers inviting me to their ungodly tutorials.

I am smart enough to know that the choice we have is not between black and white.

I have the mental rigor for subtle discriminations. So I don't need hewers of wood teaching me how to use needles and scapels.

I will criticize the President when it becomes necessary. I will not be goaded by the blind, to trash around in the darkness foisted on them by grief and bigotry.

Let those who think Atiku is not a Kleptocrat hold onto their beliefs. I consider Buhari, with all his imperfections, a better Presidential material than Atiku.

VOTE PRESIDENT MUHAMADU BUHARI FOR A BETTER NIGERIA!

The president verdict on the subject matter might not be constitutional, but i want the writer of this and all those that support the writer to answer these few questions then I'm okay:
1. Is the nigeria constitution defective or not?
2. Does the constitution favour some sect. than the others or not?
3. What is the intention of a ballot box snatcher?
4. Give atleast one good reason for a well meaning citizen to snatch ballot box?
5. If you know you won't snatch or be a part to ballot box snatching, then why should you worry yourself?

Just like most Buhari surpporters,you are a fool.A big fool.

If your anybody is killed by ballot box snatchers,the snatcher will be tried for murder.

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.

The UK does not have a leader often labelled as a tyrant but if you go to a polling booth with firearms, shoot sporadically into the air to scare voters and then snatch ballot boxes, by Jupiter you will be gunned down by the first tactical response team to get there.

I kind of support the shoot at sight order of ballot box snatchers and election defrauders, but the issue is, just as biased as Buhari's anti corruption war has been which is just fight against opposition party and other tribes he does not like, this shoot at sight order will be mainly for PDP and other opposition parties.

i once worked as an adhoc staff of inec, they tell us including the security agents not to struggle, pursue or fight with anybody trying to steal the ballot box. Cause they automatically cancel the polling unit. So the police usual dont stop, leaves them.

Things and times have changed. There's a new sheriff in town, no time to waste canceling and resetting election for any snatched polling unit ballot box! Me lovey, we moving to next the levu! Pdp, be warned!

Oga we are in a democratic setting. Tell Buhari to sign the amended electoral act into law first. There is no other way to thwart the will of the people other than refusing to sign that bill into law.

Don't support Illegality because it might one day hunt you down.

When you don't contextualise a persons statement you end up saying rubbish.

The president clearly said ballot box snatching and the use of thugs to jeopardize election process will mean the end of it all.
In other words, if you carefully exercise your franchise in a peaceful manner no problems, but if you choose the odeshi approach by stealing away people's right of franchise then you are as good as gone.
We shouldn't condone such daylight robbery in the name of following constitution.
law is made for man, not man for law.

To me, democracy does suit our kind of attitude.
I think we need an honest and sincere dictator to set us aright.

Many of us as fraudulent as we are, we always explore the technicalities in our constitution to get away with people's right; which shouldn't be so if we had a system that keep such dubious attitude in check .

I support this statement 110%.

Yea, smarty, but no UK leader would ever go on live TV to threaten the electorate with extra judicial killings few days to general elections (in the guise of deterring the electoral offenders.)

Two different things.

But why should I expect a backward barbaric fellow to understand the difference? undecided
