5 Reasons Why Tinubu And APC Lost FCT, Abuja Without The Mandatory 25% Spread by PoliticalUpdate(m): 10:24pm On Apr 15, 2023
Nigeria, and Nigerians have been thrown into series of Pandemonium since a Presidential elect for the 2023 Presidential elections were announced on the 1st of March around 4am - when those the news were meant to reach were asleep. It simply reminds me of the parable of the thief coming at night while the owners are asleep. Could it be that the elections proudly reflects a thief stealing the Joy of a nation? Food for thought! Here are five (5) major reasons why Tinubu couldn't get the 25% spread as expected despite sweeping votes from every tribes in the nation:
1. Abuja has no Governor: we saw the influential roles "political structures" as claimed by the APC played in how Tinubu won many states especially the case of Rivers - a state massively locked down for Obi. However, Wike did the expected 'Wike'; so it wasn't a surprise.
2. The Divisive nature of the Muslim-Muslim ticket at play. You can't expect to win an election free and fair in a nation arguably Christian in its outlook. So without any aid from structures you are bound to meet your waterloo like Napoleon Bonaparte. That's if you are stupid enough to divide your votes and strenthen your opponents along religious lines. Don't forget there were three frontline Muslims vying for the seat of the Presidency.
3. Absence of Thugs and illiteracy, or at the bare minimum: the people in Abuja aren't sentimental as in most areas - as they are given to credibility more than sentimentality.
4. INEC Oversight: like thieves trying to steal another man's belongings, you have to do whatever you can quickly. It is possible to forget some stolen items from the other places at your last victims residence.
5. Proof of Inflated and fake results. Abuja is the collectives of every tribe and people - it is the melting pot for all tribes. If you claimed to have won the Northeast and Northwest, North Central alongside Southwest, then winning 25% in Abuja should be child's play; because these regions are also majority of stakeholders in the FCT.

In conclusion, APC and Tinubu's PCC have brought his Kryptonite so close to him believing it won't hurt him, however, the Irony is this: the presidential inauguration is trauncated except the judiciary becomes Eye-Neck ProMax.

N.B we can debate this.
