Okoroawusa is all noise without substance. He can't even deliver Imo state to APC

oshomole distracted him, he would have done that and even more

Juliet11111:

you will surely be lynched if you say this about hope uzodinma in imo state

Hope that so far has not been able to deliver one of his associates so far

somalianprince:
The below pictures are the areas surrounding the Onitsha mall. You could even mistake the beautiful houses and lush green environment for Asokoro neighbourhood. For the records, Onitsha hosts over 1.5 million Imolites as the city serves as their greener pasture where they make it big and return to Imo state once in a year to show off. Owerri is a dilapidated dumpsite filled with bad roads and filth. I am yet to see one sane person or family that moved to live in Owerri. I am still yet to see any rich guy living in Owerri as his main base where he makes his living. I am equally yet to see anyone that made his/her money living in Owerri. Useless and worthless town that can only boast of commercial sex hawkers, armed robbers and kidnappers. You people should develop your state physically and economically so that people can at least live and earn a decent living in Imo state.

[s][/s]

where you actually talking about owerri?, lol

Abagworo:


Leave him to wallow in ignorance. Only Nwosu is sure of winning on ground whereas others are hoping on rigging or calling on external force to stop Nwosu.

especially Hope uzodimma

Let me be the first to say it here, . Contrary to what I have been hearing from outside the state, and social media, it seemed that Rochas son in-law has already lost the election. But contrary to this, when I travelled to the village for the presidential election, one of the things I found out was that Rochas was fairly popular among the rural inhabitants, not as popular as he used to be, but far more popular than any politician you can think of in imo state now. Secondly Rochas and AA, has the most formidable political structure at the moment in imo state, (the 305 ward councillors, and 27 lga chairmen) they we're really instrumental in helping Rochas win his senatorial bid. Thirdly, many people are beginning to see Uche nwosu as a lesser evil, compared to other candidates. Hope uzodimma is a no no, people actually detest him, the only way he can win is to use federal might to rig, that's his only option, ararume is no longer as powerful as his used to be, and just like Atiku, people are beginning to doubt his true intentions, after contesting for governorship a long time now. Iheadioha has the problem of mbaise factor, every other part of imo state distrust and mistrust mbaise. And he is not popular in orlu senatorial zone of imo state which has 12 local governments out of 27. I believe this and many more will contribute to nwosu winning the race.,

nzeobi:

some people on ground plan to vote them oh

Oga if you are on ground, then you should know that nwosu has 60% chance of winning that election

Curlieweed:


My friend, tame yourself there!

That clown comes from the same LGA as me. It’s impossible to find 700 bastards in the entire LG that will vote Apeeshit not to talk of a single PU.

Stop copying and pasting falsehood.

oga, these figures are actually real. I'm currently in my village nowin Njaba. Apc actually cleared my ward, it was simple. What I found out was that these village people were neither voting for Buhari nor Rochas, but Apc agents who were working for Apc in my ward. These Apc agents will just come and beg them to vote for their party not for the sake of Buhari nor Rochas, but for their own sake. So since respectable people are in A PC the will keep getting votes.

obonujoker:
Rubbish..... What of Okorocha?

Rochas is winning so far, from results coming in

chukwundukc:
Here in my part of imo, though Atiku is winning but the margin is not too impressive... Not as expected

another thing is that people so much underated, Rochas with what I'm seeing today, his son in law is winning the governorship, the man still possess charisma, market women still rates him highly, plus he has very strong political structure

with the trend I have seen, buhari has been getting plenty votes from southeast and southsouth, unlike what happened in 2015 when he got virtually non., here in imo, Buhari has won so many polling units already. so if it continues like this, I think Buhari win Atiku after all

NOC1:
APC getting that number of votes in Isoko should be a thing of concern

that's one thing pdp supporters are not seeing, here in imo state, Apc has won so many polling units

somalianprince:
Please replace Ebonyi with Imo state. Imo state is arguably the poorest state in Nigeria with some of the poorest indigenes.

fool

haywire07:
PDP are trying their best to cause chaos so people won't go out to vote for their choice candidate.

PDP knows the real votes will be conducted tomorrow with PVCs and Buhari will win. Atiku can keep winning with nairaland likes and shares

may God forgive you people

Nigeria election 2019: Mapping a nation in nine charts


The BBC maps the challenges facing Nigeria, Africa's most-populous nation and largest economy, as it approaches a presidential election 20 years since the return of democracy:
Four years ago, President Muhammadu Buhari's All Progressives Congress (APC) dominated the north and south-west of the country whereas the party's main rival, the People's Democratic Party (PDP), was more popular in the south and south-east.
However, unlike in the 2015 election, when a northerner, Mr Buhari, faced a southerner, incumbent President Goodluck Jonathan, this time the main challenger is the PDP's Atiku Abubakar, who is also from the north.
Analysts say the election is too difficult to call and the result is likely to be close.
The APC could suffer in the country's Middle Belt, Benue and Nasarawa states, as there is dissatisfaction with the failure to deal with communal violence there, the BBC's Abuja editor Aliyu Tanko says.
The APC is popular in the two states with the largest number of voters - Lagos and Kano - but there is the danger of voter apathy and a low turnout could become a problem.

Latest election news
The income map reveals a clear regional divide in how wealthy Nigerians are, with the north being much poorer than the south of the country.
President Buhari's home state, Katsina in northern Nigeria, is the poorest area, where the average annual income per person is less than $400 (£309) - just over $1 a day.
Excluding the capital, Abuja, Lagos is the richest state and country's commercial hub with the average annual income per person at nearly $8,000.
The relative wealth of the southern states, Delta, Bayelsa, Rivers and Akwa Ibom is a result of the oil industry.
The figures represent the mean average income and are not a reflection on how equally that money is distributed across the population.
Reality Check: Is poverty getting worse?
Every year many thousands of young Nigerians start looking for jobs but there are few opportunities for formal work.
Sustainable job creation was one of the challenges for Nigeria that accountancy firm PwC identified last year.
In general, despite some downturns, the economy has grown strongly since 2000, but unemployment remains stubbornly high. Nationally, it stands at just over 23%.
Ironically, some of the states, in the oil-rich south, with high average income also have high unemployment. As well as pointing to income inequalities, this suggests that the oil industry is not producing enough jobs for the population.

The oil and gas industry accounts for 9%of Nigeria's GDP, but the money the country gets for oil and gas makes up nearly half of all government revenue.
The global oil price, therefore, plays a big role in determining whether the government can pay its bills.
The first half of President Buhari's term was hit by a falling oil price, which led to a sharp rise in government debt.

Security is a key election issue with inter-communal and Islamist-inspired violence accounting for nearly 10,000 deaths over the last four years.
Despite some military successes since 2015, especially in retaking territory from Islamist Boko Haram insurgents in the north-east, there has been a recent upsurge in attacks by the militants.
In the north-west, especially in Zamfara state, things appear to be worsening with armed bandits attacking villages and killing and abducting civilians for ransom, as well as stealing cattle.
The age-old conflict between settled farmers and nomadic herders has worsened in the last few years especially in central Nigeria. Mr Buhari's government has been criticised for its poor handling of the situation, but the conflict appears to have subsided ahead of the elections.

Nigeria's 180 million population is divided among numerous ethno-linguistic groups.
The Hausa-Fulani people, based in the north are mostly Muslims.
The Yorubas of the south-west are split between Muslims and Christians and the Igbos of the south-east and neighbouring groups are mostly Christian or follow traditional religions.
Both main presidential candidates - Mr Buhari and Mr Abubakar - are Fulanis, with running mates from the south. President Buhari's deputy is Yemi Osinbajo, a Yoruba pastor and former law professor; Mr Abubakar has chosen Peter Obi, an Igbo politician.
According to the UN children's agency (Unicef), one in every five of the world's out-of-school children is in Nigeria- though the percentage of school-age children actually in education varies widely across the country. There is a sharp regional divide, with the proportion of children going to school generally lower in the north.
It is estimated that 10.5 million children between five and 14 are out of school. Last October, a Unicef official said that 69% of those were in northern Nigeria, with the highest figure in Bauchi state, followed by Mr Buhari's home state of Katsina.
The government's National Economic Council recommended in October 2018 that a state of emergency be declared in the education sector to address, among other things, the number of out-of-school children.
Literacy rates are generally lower in the north, especially for women and girls.
