Maybe they added one '0' for every 10 miliion naira for PDP, or more still, multiplied PDP votes by the votes received by DPP.
SORRY NIGERIA

You should have watched the debate on CHANNELS, it clearly showed Uduaghan lacked vision for the state, even the woman candidate made more sense than him.
He clearly lacked vision for the state and even the crowd at the debate proved that with numerous applause for the ANPP candidate, whats the candidate name for DPP again? i skipped his name, can someone remind me?

PapaBrowne:

Not exactly. However,[s] it is easier to move around in the riverine areas than on land. While the riverine areas has creeks for the people to navigate through, the hinterland has few plyable roads.[/s]

The results we a seeing is as a result of the fact that Uduaghan and the PDP worked real hard (Financial inducements) to ensure that their base came out en-masse to vote. If you look at the results for Delta North, which is the Igbo speaking areas, although Uduaghan won there, the turnout was very low and that wouldn't have given him victory.
But areas like Warri north, Bomadi, Warri South tec, there was massive turnout. In Uvwie, Ogborus stronghold, which happens the largest population center in the state, many voters stayed at home and couldn't be bothered.

The lesson in my opinion is that opposition parties should learn from PDP. PDP understands one very strong principle in elections.  It is Rural folk that vote. Urbanites just make a lot of noise before elections and for fear of violence stay at home on election day. Rural folk don't read papers so they don't care for all the bad news about PDP. What interests them is the man who comes around to their village just before elections and doles out cash and items.
Just to put things in perspective, Bomadi with just 10,000 voter turnout would cost a politician just just 50 million naira to buy out all the votes there at 5,000 per voter. Do so for another 10 LGAs and youy would coast to victory. It is all about money. And Nigerians are still very willing to trade off their votes because they've realised that PDP, AC, DPP, ANPP or whatever goes the acronym, they all consist of the same thieving politicians.

GREAT OGBORU. . . the only man to plan a coup against IBB and live to tell the story.

By the way, nor be by debate. . . some guys are not just good at articulating their points and that doesn't mean they lack vision.

Moreover, winning an election is not all about debate performance. . . .your structures on ground and how you mobilize your peeps/supporters to vote matters a lot too.

How many people in Delta state watched the Channels debate sef?

Nobi by debate? na by wetin? counting fishes and crabs as voters? how come the riverine areas where alot of Deltans have evacuated from during the unrest periods is not the most populated of the whole of Delta state?

Is it the rural dwellers that do not even know how to register to vote that suddenly knew how to register, increased in triple amount to vote all of a sudden?

Which structures are you talking about here? the structure of fabricating votes from the RIVERINE areas or what?

INEC, if you love this country, you better do the stand and count vote (Open ballot system), this is a total mess.

Stop being silly will you? I served in 2006-2007 and I took part in the voters registration exercise then. I was assigned to a riverine community during the voters registration exercise and I was consistently registering more people than my housemates who were assigned to the hinterland and places on land so that your logic nor work, try again.

By the way, where is that ANPP guy? Shebi na by debate and na im perform best for the debate? Nonsense!

Ok, I geddit. . .when another party wins, it's free and fair and when PDP wins, it was rigged

PapaBrowne:

Mr man, it is rural people who go out to vote. Urbanites don't vote. And PDP understands that clearly. That is the lesson I'm learning. Most people doing well financially stayed at home yesterday. Warri Urban and Effurun constitutes a large population of middle class people with their nice nice cars. They all stayed at home yesterday.
