I agree that elections in the south east did not fully comply with electoral act. First the open-secret ballot was not fully followed. Where I voted it was possible for other voters to see the choice you have made. It is also possible for people to see voting pattern. So, if someone sees almost everyone voting for a particular party, they may follow the crowd. Then I also have it on good authority that GEJ biscuit was shared in some polling units which sounds like campaigning on Election Day. Then rigging took place after the voting with empty ballot papers being thumbprinted, these accounts for the high voter turnout in the region.

Do not get me wrong, GEJ may still have won SE and SS without rigging, but that does not justify the rigging. Here is an analogy:

Assuming someone suffering from a terminal illness is killed by someone, will the killer then argue in court that since the person will still have died anytime soon that he should not be charged for his murder. That means that our thieving politicians can argue that if they did not steal the money they are stealing now someone else would have done so. My point is that just because a crime would not have made a difference does not justify it.

The question is, while they were rigging the election, did they know they would win? They would have known they would win in SE or SS, but they may not have been sure of the rest of Nigeria. So, the aim of the rigging would have been to give GEJ as many votes as possible in the region to neutralise the effects of losses he may suffer in other parts of Nigeria.

If the man feels cheated he should question the results at least it is better than violence. For the records the elections were a lot better than 2007, but it is by no means a standard for other countries in Africa. But of course, it is easy for a people who have been in hell for too long to mistake purgatory as haven.

It is amazing, Buhari is fighting to wrestle mandate that was not given to him.
When his own mandate was taken away from him by small boy IBB in 1983 with slaps, what did he do?
What a lazy and coward soldier.
Jonathan needs help now, people like OBJ, Danjuma should assist him what to do. For Christ sake, Jonathan is the command in chief of Nigeria armed forces.


Here we go again, OBJ and Danjuma should be asked for help by GEJ. We keep doing the same thing and expecting a different result. If GEJ doesn't have a mind of his own, why then did you vote for him??

My bros, this is what some us have beeing shouting over and over again. Buhari belongs to the misgiuded "elites" of the military boys who held this nation to ransome since independence.

Are you talking about the fact that he became a general at 40? Gowon became Head of State at 26. It is very very unofrtunate that the faith of nation was left in the hands of children. More painful is the fact that Buhari has refused to grow up.

nuzo:

Among the thousands of votes cast in my polling boot, ANPP's Shekarou got three. . . while GEJ got the rest of the votes for my korokoro eyes.
Its not a question of what you saw at your polling boot, but I will also doubt how thousands of vote could have been recorded from a single polling boot instead of hundreds. But assuming that is what happened. Say there was 3 thousand votes recorded in total according to you and ANPP got 3  votes and then the PDP got the remaining 2997 votes according to you.

This figure is not the figure that will most likely feature at the collation centre where the figures could change and even those you mention that got nil vote will now even be awarded votes and this will likely happen- ANNP will now get something like 80 votes instead of the 3 votes you saw. CPC/ACN you claimed to have got nil vote will now get 50 and 120 votes respectively.

Then this is where the final magic happens,the PDP which you claimed won by 2997 votes will now get something like 29,600 votes at the collation centre. So despite the fact that you saw a peaceful voting and probably a peaceful counting of the votes and you went home happy and givig the process a pass mark, but at the collation centre something different is presented. So if someone then lter said that the election was rigged where you voted, you will likely disagree based on what you saw but thing changed once your back was turned.

In the last NASS election in Edo state for example, there was an incident where after voting and counting of the votes, ACN got 1360 and PDP got 1413 votes, but at the collation centre, ACN votes was changed to a mere 568 votes, while that of PDP was inflated to 10,324 votes and some other parties that got two digit votes now were getting three digit votes.  But unluckily for the returning officer, about six agentS from that particular place happens to be there when he was about to submit the result and to their amazement, including the PDP agent, they could not believe the figure they were seeing being submitted and all of them happens to be there with their respective copies of the sheets they all signed and the returning officer, a lecturer at the University of Benin was immediatly arrested and charged for electoral fraud and now held in the prison.

What is so disappointing with Nigeria, PDP and JONATHAN is that Jonathan has every opportunity to win this election without resorting to any kind of manipulation. I think he could have won with a very slim majority or a run off between him and Buhari. It better and more respectful to win win genuine 100 votes majority than to win by thousands of vote out of fraud.

Never in the history of democracy anywhere in the world that you will get a 90% voters turn out and a single candidate getting a whopping 99.65% of the votes cast and in many cases what was recorded as the spoilt votes seems to be three times more than the votes of the other candidates.

The thing about election riggers is this, they are like armed robbers with a knife, once they get away with first one with just a knife, they will be emboldened and go with a gun next time. What can stop them doing the same thing for the governorship election and then winning even in area unexpected them to win and what the cheated can do is to spend the next three years in court.

Re: Buhari Rejects Results In 22 States And Fct by BabaTony: 11:02am On Apr 19, 2011
dont' know why the CPC are failing to understand what went on during the elections. the results are very clear as daylight with the following reasons.

1. What did he expect from the SE and especially the SS, this is a region who have been longing for a preseident and now the got the opportunity to elect one, these guys are smart , they gave it its best shot.

2. the CPC is no where in the SS and SE and SW, no serious campaigns where done here, the same shabby way they disregard the southerners, was the same way the conducted their campaigns in the south, this is a region they know for Godsake is not their strong hold they should have exerted more campaigns, but they didnt, now they are crying foul. miracles dont just happen!

3. They are complaining that the PDP rigged in some states in the North, these are states that have the PDP as their state governors, of course these governors will make sure they capaign vigorously for their party, if not they will lose their seats in the next elections, that is why the votes in those states where shared, its simple logic!

4. Proir to this time, the CPC had NO elected official in the country not to talk about the south, no local govt chairman, no house of rep, senator, governor etc. The are in contention for the race just because of one man, Buhari, period. if burahi leaves the CPC tmrw, i bet you, CPC is finished.

5. They complain that the ACN sold out their votes in the SW to PDP, the truth is that the ACN knew very well that the SW will surely vote to the PDP not because of PDP sake but because of Jonathan, so that is why Tinubu even considered having a talk with the PDP in Abuja to reach an accord knowing well that that romance might bring them closer to the center. meanwhile this happened afetr the ACN/CPC romance which broke down due to reasons well known to everybody.

6. PDP no matter what reservations we might have against them is still a national party, no party in Nigeria is as national as PDP, they are the only party that have it clearly in their constitution the issue of zoning. That is also why they could pull votes from the North. ACN, CPC, APGA are all regional parties, etc are all regional parties. Have you guys see the results on the map of nigeria the North south divide is very clear, so if probably all the major contenders had their candidates from one part of the country the results i bet would have been different and probabbly PDP would have lost.

Finally i want to state that it takes a national party to win presidential elections in Nigeria and PDP have shown that, if the oppposition is really serious about getting power from tha PDP without having selfish or ethnic interests, they should all come together, the ACN, CPC and APGA and form a party that will have a national outlook, then ppl will have the confidence to give them the mandate especially at the presidency level.

So I plead with buhari and his CPC ppl to stop overheating the populace with violence and going to court( which i think they would lose anyway) and go back to the drawing board to restrategise and thin of how they can have a national look and appeal to Nigerians

Basseti:

Exactly. Let the dude go to court and I hope he has a better argument to put forth than the lame "I dont believe it" which seems now to be your mantra for the day.

So basically U are saying that both parties rigged and one party out rigged the other. Thats a whole different debate.

However, no matter U believe in or what U dont believe in, the consensus opinion on most of the media outlets I have visited seemed to suggest that this is one of the most smoothest election to be conducted in Nigeria. Of course U are welcome to once again NOT believe.

And this idea that Igbos were used or politically naive,,,, I dont get that as well. People just type out of thier asses. U expected the Igbos to vote for General Buhari over Jonathan Eberechukwu Goodluck? On what planet?? Even Yorubas ddint vote for Gen Buhari. Correct me if I am wrong, didnt the Goodluck dude win in Lagos and some SW states too? Were those states politically naive too?
Now that the election is over, can we please go back to reality. His name is not Eberechukwu or Ebelechukwu, his name is Ebelemi (Ijaw name).
Your president's name is Goodluck Ebelemi Jonathan and anything outside that is one the election's side gimmicks.

@azeezengr

MY OPINION ARE SIMPLY AS STATED BELOW:

1. RIGGING IS A UNIVERSAL PHENOMENON AND YOU CAN ONLY RIG SUCCESSFULLY WHERE YOU ARE POPULAR
2.IF YOU RIG WHERE YOU ARE POPULAR, THE ELECTION IS FREE AND FAIR AND IF OTHERWISE ELECTION MAY STILL BE FREE BUT NOT FAIR

I completely disagree with your positions in 1. and 2. above.
If that were true, the courts would not have reversed the electoral victories of the governors of Edo, Ondo Ekiti and  Osun States.
It has actually been proven severally here in Nigeria that you can successfully rig where you are not popular.
Was Yar'Adua popular? Wasn't he elected before our own very eyes? Do you think the AC would have swept the south west in this 2011 elections if it were to hold under Obasanjo (the do-or-die apostle) with Maurice Iwu at INEC?
Let's not encourage such fallacies, it actually emboldens those with the intention to rig to brazenly carry out the act, latching on to the lame excuse that they would still have won anyway.

@noblezone:
Gowon became Head of State at 26.


No. Gowon became Head of State a few months to his 32nd birthday.
Re: Buhari Rejects Results In 22 States And Fct by Nobody: 11:16am On Apr 19, 2011
men this matter is hilarious  grin grin

i hate to analyze politics, because they are all the same.

GEJ is not good that we know, and neither is BUHARI.
when i am given a choice of two evils i choose to go with the lesser EVIL.

it is only in nigeria that you can mess up and be applauded for it.
how can a man who truncated democracy be seeking to be elected as one.

nemesis is only playing out its best game,
he wants INEC to reject the results,
based on a stupid fact that that the excel was programmed to deduct 40% from CPC and add it to where,
since when did he become an IT expert,

INEC instructed all collation centers to send in a scanned copy of the original hard copy prepared by hand, to the inec chairman, not a typed copy.
so where does the excel issue comes into play
now he wants to blame computers, next he will be blaming microsoft or even facebook.

GEJ was on facebook, reaching out to the online community.
he campaigned in every state of the federation.

from the onset BUHARI did not set out to win but to cause confusion, even ACN describes him as a man who refuse to step down from his high horse
is Nigeria his birthright or does he think that he can hold us to his lofty ideas
he needs to get real and learn to play politics not pointing accusing fingers.

look at ACN for example they know that the only way for them to break PDP's monopoly is by delivering good governance, and see how far that has gotten them.
that shows a Party that has a strategy,
BUHARI is a confusionist, and he will never get his shot at the presidency, lets see how he is going to win without the votes of the SS, SE, and SW.

BUHARI has nothing to offer us, and even if goodluck jonathan does not perform, it is only a matter of time before ACN outdo and out perform the PDP.
i think a combination of FASHOLA/OSHIOMOLE will be a good deal to win the presidency.

Buhari is just greedy and selfish who wanted to use to Acn to win the election but unfortunately for him,he was outsmarted by Tinubu.Whether he realise it or not,he has lost the election but he can still head to court to prove his case.Now that the election is free and fair,what buhari keeps saying is anothe thing just to cause trouble.He can go to hell if he likes.

My registration with NL is now 2 years and one week and I have always been classified as "AN ACTIVE POSTER". I have , however, been taking stock over the last one week. I praise and congratulate NL for the provision of a forum for freee speech in accessible affordable manner. I am however worried that the influence I had from NL may not have made me a better person.
The anonimity people enjoy with fancy psedonyms and all that is great but is obviously seen as a licence for a most uncivil behaviour. Nairaland "political" discussion forums are really arenas for tribal and religious warfare. The most vile language and most hateful insults are the order of communication here. The extent of enemity and the depth of hostility is so profound and unbelievable and they are always finally focussed on tribal religious and regional differences. New topics seeem to be designed to invite insults to fuel these well established tribal wars. Even the few innocent sounding postings are quickly re- construed to ensure that the hostility and belligerency remains high and is given a boost and is amplified.
Am I more inclined to love and respect other Nigerians (not from my tribe , religion or state) as a result of my NL experience? Am I more likely to be suspecius of and hostile to thes other countrymen directly or indireectly due to NL experience? These are some off the questions I am asking myself. What have I done towards the improvement of objectivity, justice and fair play - are these really possible or even expected on NL? Is it a constructive or destructive forum. Are some irrational actions seen in our country related to such open enemity and hatred that exists and is articulated daily in the most venomous language on NL and similar forums? What is the experience of other Nairalanders please?

Buhari we all know can never win jonathan lets face the fact. Is it not only hausa/fulani's and minor number of yoruba's that voted for him. tell me how he will win the election. my friend.

Why is it that some folks here is trying to make bold that south east is the major or only place that were rigged. Hey listen we are now 41yrs ahead civil war the igbo's you see now has learn a lot from the past so everybody should mind his utterances.

Let Buhari be the President of Kano and Kaduna, lets see how far he would get and ask them to get visa anytime they want to come down south. Nigeria simply cannot work as a country. Its high time we had a referendum like they did in Sudan. The south is tired of the North. They are an embarrassment.  Thats the plain truth. Not one bomb went off in the South. many bombs kept going off in the North. The South is tired. I am sure without the oil money, they would all be scavengers. Jonathan should put this machinery in process. It is no big deal, this marriage of inconvenience is pathetic. The North never contributes anything to the economy of this country, what legitimate right do they have to lay claim to its leadership?
On this forum, most people will identify me for my undying support and a quest for a democratic independent Biafra state but that doesn't blind me to certain realities that I should be making such an unintelligent statement that the North never contributed anything to the economy of Nigeria. That is a stupid thing to say, fuel by outright tribalism.
Next time you are served and ate these: RICE, TOMATOE, ONION, POTATO, VEGETABLE OIL, GROUNDNUT, SOGHUM (beer), MILLET, TURKEY, BEEF, SUGAR CANE (sugar), RED/WHITE BEANS, YAM, CARROT, VANILLA, SPICES, WHITE MAIZE (corn meal, cornflakes, animal feed) MANGALA FISH, GUINEA FOWL/GUINEA FOWL EGG, RAM (mutton) ask yourself which of those is produced in your southern village, let alone is a commercial quanity?

This is the mistake we make in the South, the assumptions based on superiority complex that Northerners are useless and has nothing. Whenever I push most my quest for Biafra it has never stopped me from recognising the truth or the fact that in the event of disintegration of Nigeria, that the north may surprised many of us if they are get and start with leaders like Abubakar Umar, Balarabe Musa or Yar Adua etc to pilot the affair of their country and develop 100% agro economy that can easily wipe out the present Almajiri and unacceptable unemployment among their people.
There are two most important thing in the world today, that the world cannot function without: Science/Technology and Food. The world may be slower without oil but the world cn survive without oil. Northern Nigeria if blessed with a good government can feed the whole of Africa to start with.

Hum this my simple observation:

Even in Otuoke-Jonathan ward the number of registered voters was as about 909 yet those the number of voters was less than 500!!!!

IF in JONATHAN's WARD THE TOTAL VOTES WAS LESS THAN 50% OF REGISTERED VOTERS THEN ITS NO ROCKET SCIENCE TO SMELL RAT WITH OVER 80% VOTER"S TURNOUT IN THE SS AND SE.[b][/b]

Right from 1999 the  SS & SE has been a major HUB for massive rigging by the PDP-but  very soon they shall consume themselves!!!!

Has anyone heard from Pastor Tunde Bakare, the running mate of Buhari on the violence in the North orchestrated by the almajiris and under age voters cultivated by his presidential candidate

@musiwa Removing the oduduwas, Edo and Delta has nothing to do with the crisis in Nigeria because they haven't caused Nigerians any pains but removing the whole northern states to the neighbouring Niger and chad is the best solution to solve Nigeria's problem. Let Buhari go and sleep because the only vote he got from SS AND SE are from the aboki's because no true son of these two regions will vote for a coupist. Aboki's voted him without intimidation by any person in Rivers state, while in the que u will hear them telling themselves to vote cpc and nobody said anything to them. But now they lost woefully, instead of accepting defeat in good faith, they are busy crying fool play, Losers will accept defeat. Why?

Some people make mistakes in their analysis.What Buhari called for is complete analysis of the results from the polling units.

I am yet to encounter anyone in Rivers State who admitted having up to 60% turnout in his polling unit.In my polling unit about 1800 were registered while 452 people actually voted.

The best thing is to call for recalculation based on the actual votes cast.Let us stop wasting human lives just because we want to hang on to power.

my question to,since ur so smart,is,how does dat affect the outcome of the election?have u calculated wat d outcome is even if u remove even 90% of the votes GEJ got from SS and SE?Its d same,he still wins!!!d gap is too much for complaint.and i'm sure u kno dat a GEJ preseidency is viewed as a better bet for any South Easterner,so lets see the suffering u say we will suffer.we await.Yeah right, buhari would hav treated south east better.a place he didnt even bother campaignin in,people he feels superior to,irrelevant, please!!!!

Do not blame Buhari for under aged voters. It was INEC and the PDP led government headed by GEJ that registered them. If they were not registered, they would not have voted. Buhari is not in control of INEC and should not be blamed for its lapses. As for Bakare, he would speak when he is ready.
