2023 Elections Vs June 12, 1993 Elections - Daily Trust by Yorubalandlord(m): 7:41am On Mar 05, 2023 |
Even as the 2023 Presidential polls exercise has been conducted with controversies trailing its outcome, and the announcement of the candidate of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) Bola Tinubu as winner, older Nigerians may not fail to see striking semblances and contrasts between it and the earlier, iconic June 12 1993 affair, which held 30 years ago. And while such meeting points and deviations may go unnoticed by many, the lessons they offer are legion. From the build up to the actual voting and post-election drama, both exercises provided enough cause for concern over the future of the country. The main difference for now seems to be that while in 1993 the presumed winner was not formally announced and the results were annulled, in the 2023 exercise the results and winner nave been announced in other to render it a concluded matter, at least for now. https://dailytrust.com/2023-polls-vs-june-12-1993-polls/ 14 Likes 1 Share

While the 1993 election could best be described as the most transparent election Nigeria has ever had, the same cannot be said of what happened on the 25th February 2023 The 2023 presidential election can best be described as an electoral heist and the beneficiary knows that he is holding a stolen mandate 332 Likes 36 Shares |

No basis for comparison at all. Only the Muslim - Muslim ticket. 1993 election was all about ending military rule . And was adjudged the freest and fairest election till date. Not the shambolic nonsense we just witnessed. If the judiciary will be fair and just on this, I foresee an upturn of the declared winner 161 Likes 16 Shares |

yinkus6750: Same thing now, we went for Obit because we want to decolonise Nigeria/Africa from the western countries still colonizing us on a low. Also with the muslim/muslim ticket..... We can't afford to have a double Islamic people run this country. And I believe, henceforth, we will begin to run a same faith ticket in Nigeria and that will equally stand! 18 Likes 3 Shares |

For those who don’t understand complex composition, what Daily Trust Newspaper is saying is that the just concluded presidential election was a sham. That the election shares a lot of similarities with 1993 election, and might as well share the annulment similarity with it. Tinubu is not coming. Peter Obi is coming. Even the results INEC is currently uploading to its IREV portal is already at variance with what they announced manually. Tinubu urchins are shitting in their pants. That’s why they’ve been cold for 3 days now. Ndi ala! 80 Likes 11 Shares |

Buhari and Prof. Yakubu Mahmood created a personae that suggested that they would do something different to set Nigeria on a greater and sparogatively better level. Alas! reverse was the case. Irrespective of your political leanings you cannot deny that this election was marred with irregularities. Moral of the story: Never trust the government. 3 Likes |

![]() I only have these questions; Why are all the Easterners, including the ones that don’t stay in Lagos or even outside the country all gathering their support for Chinedu GRV for Lagos State governor? Why Lagos? Why not their own state? Then some dumb SW guys forming woke are shining their teeth like Sudan ram following them Same Omo ale chinedu GRV that can’t even speak Yoruba but speak Igbo fluently Chinedu GRV that cannot hide his disdain for Yorubas and his obsession for Biafra agitation The boy has no single manifesto. He speaks like a secondary school student; he will double salary and give agberos job—- that one na manifesto. A whole Lagos state, 4th largest economy in the world. Let me tell you something, Chinedu Gbadebo is clueless and very dull.. but that’s not the business if the igbos, no matter how dull and incompetent he is, their agenda is to see him win. If Sanwo olu likes, let him sponsor all of them to Havard and Mit and give them housing and monthly stipends, they won’t still vote for him. While you think you vote out of conscience, they are voting based on their agenda It is your duty to come out massively and make sure you don’t let their selfish agenda come to pass, don’t sit at home and let an Omo ale take over Yoruba land 37 Likes 6 Shares

One notable thing learnt from my end, was apparently a sizeable number of the Masses knew the kind of Person MKO was, but voted for him still. They just wanted a change from the Military that had been very Disappointing and Ruthless. If this was true, let the elders who were alive then & literate, pls reply or Quote me. (The case is of course very Different today. The dynamics of the Political and Social landscape is much Different. BAT's situation is Different) |

Ofunaofu:That's correct. Abiola was loved by majority and never needed to rig the election. Tinubu is an impostor that wants to be like Abiola but can never be. Here's the campaign jingle of the SDP for non-indomie generation. Enjoy the nostalgia. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VBQwUgKfW08 11 Likes 2 Shares |

They're both incomparable. Infact, directly opposite each other. I voted in that election for MKO. it was the the fairest election in Africa's history, unlike this one in which a candidate was slapped in the face on a broad day light. MKO won the entire SW including Lagos, he won massively in the north, including in Kano, even in Tofa's PU and LG( this was before Kano state was split as a result of state creation). I read a few minutes ago here on NL in which an APC spokesman in Rivers openly said Obi won rivers but another result was announced...he's an apc spokesman and not that of PDP or LP . A few of them who had conscience are already coming out to say the truth. MKO didn't bribe any delegates to win primary. Atiku has been known for this for ages. When Atiku remained in the race alongside MKO, he began to lobby northern caucus in Jos, enticing them with money but they openly told him, MKO stood a better chance. The latter didn't spend a dime to secure his victory at the primaries and in the general elections, unlike Emilokan who bribed his way through. I'm glad Atiku lost in this election. It's the south's turn but not someone like Tinubu. We had much better candidates even in Yorubaland. If he's so popular and loved like MKO, why did he lose lagos? Even in the SE that time, MKO won some and secured over 35% in others despite the fact that their Son was also in the race. Did it happen this time, with Obi taking everything? I leave those who have conscience to answer that question. Why didn't he win Osun, if he's so loved and popular? Why lobby Makinde to deliver oyo for him if he's so loved and popular? I pity that guy. If care isn't taken, he'd regret his action come Saturday with all I've been hearing from the apc's camp in the state. I was in ekiti earlier in the week. Some people were jubilating after receiving the 5k alert, which the governor promised them before election, should they vote apc. This didn't happen when mko was running. Nobody gave me one kobo before I voted him. If the 1993 election could be annulled, despite being so free, fair and transparent, the recently concluded election which was marred with daylight fraud won't see the light of the day. Don't attack now if you differ, do so after May 29th. 24 Likes 7 Shares |
