If only Enugu, Abia ,Anambra and Imo were able to turn up a similar vote like Rivers,Delta and Akwa Ibom, GEJ would have won that election. Chai!

Utchman1:


Because Kano and katsina have more registered voters than Akwa Ibom. Kano has about 4.1 million registered voters, so if u get a result of about two million votes, u shouldn't doubt it.

On the other hand Akwa Ibom has under 1.4 million voters.

So work that out.

mr akpabio, u owe no body an explanation of what u did, every sailor must not be in the same ship(norsemen understands) and every nigerian mustn't b in the same party.....

President Jonathan was heavily favoured and supported in Akwa Ibom. However, he would not have won a free & fair election by that embarrassing margin.

Being in Uyo during the elections, I can confirm to you that the rigging was monumental. A certain video is being circulated on social media as proof. The real total turnout of voters wouldn't even be up to 600k.

With Jonathan's loss, Akpabio's clout has left him, and he is no more the mini-god he has thought of himself.

Akwa Ibom State is embracing change come April 11th. Umana Okon Umana (APC) is the next governor!

FOUR MAJOR REASONS WHY JONATHAN ACCEPTED DEFEAT EASILY


No Civilian President would have done lesser than what Jonathan does(Accepting defeat). All the other presidents who stuck to power in the past have military background, so Jona hasn't done anything spectacular and I don't think he has made any history contrary to the songs many people here are singing.

Now here are my reasons for saying he hasn't made any history:


1. There are international observers everywhere and any nonsense will get him Gbagboed into International prison because they have declared the election as FREE AND FAIR. Remember Charles Taylor, Laurent Gbagbo and Gaddafi. They are all soldiers who are not scared a bit of prison or death, that's why they never stopped fighting. But for GEJ, he is not strong; a civillian like you and I, not ready to languish in prison. Obama himself made allusion to Nigeria election a day before it held, so that is enough to send some sensation of fear into the spine of any African president who has no military background. Jona himself has been made to sign peace treaty twice and also interviewed internationally and made to vow that their would be a credible election.


2. The earlier he agrees with Buhari, the better for him because no matter what he does, BUHARI is ready to suck him dry of the national wealth he has amassed for himself over the years and possibly dump him in prison. You will remember his wife shouting that she wasn't ready to feed her husband in prison. Jonathan is not a strong person at heart, so you should expect him to be scared of prison, unlike the likes of Buhari, Obj and other military converts.
So, calling Buhari on phone isn't a big deal at all, since that would be the last appeal he could do so that his punishment could be lessened. With this, by the time Buhari start crying out loud that Jonathan has done this and that, we the gullible Nigerians will start calling Buhari a wicked man and saying "upon how Jona called this man on phone, yet he is still exposing him that way." That is what we call APPEAL TO PITY(Fallacy)

3. With JEGA's intellectually calm and astute response to Mr Odubebe's bei bei bei, the whole world has already judged the man as a very shrewd and unbiased man, so I don't see any court case or rejection of the election result standing at all. Surely, Jega will defend himself and win in all cases. Also, everyone knows that Jona would have made many advances to Jega in attempts to bribe him; surely JEGA will reveal those advances in court and the story would be 'no story at all.'

4. Jona had to act this way(you all know he is a Nollywood actor) just to buy the apathy of many gullible Nigerians (especially the 'prophet says' and the 'Jona is a gentleman' type). He hasn't done anything well for the past six years, so by gently walking away, he wants to use that to gain last-minute popularity. Well, good luck to him but I ain't buying his ideas.[/b]

Abeg speak for yourself and those under your sphere of influence alone.

Which AKS is embracing change as personalised by the killing machine- Umana? Mcheeeeeeeeeew.

Udom will win. He is the best there is.

ChinemeOkpan:


Hypocrite! You changed your post after you asked why it was on the FP when we all know the result.

Hope you are getting ready, General Buhari is your President Elect and will preside over the country from May 29- for at least 4 years!

Collynzo9:
Mumu, I didn't see the 'why' in the thread's title then. Now imagine the title without that and tell me if it makes sense.

GJames:
SS and SE claiming the North and SW are tribalistic by voting GEJ out. GEJ won three states in the North, one in the west, got 2 million+ votes from both region. Buhari lost in the entire SS and SE with less than 600,000 votes altogether. Who is tribalistic here

tbaba1234:


Those states had less than 50% turnout. If Kano was rigged, we will be talking of far more votes for Buhari.

Rivers state had 75% turnout or so Is that even possible. Awka Ibom and delta had unreasonable turnout figures.

Akpabio oh Akabio you are the only loyal governor in Nigeria. You are also the only intelligent adult in Nigeria. Everyone else is stupid. You created Nigeria therefore everything you say must be the truth. My advice: Every day is for the thief but one day is for the owner of the house. Keep at what you know best, being a magician. My humble advice: Get off your high horse and come back to reality.
All comments are welcome but for the naysayers CHANGE is finally here after 16 years of gross corruption and mismanagement of Nigeria's assets. Buhari is Godswill for Nigeria.
God loves Nigeria.
God bless Nigeria.

Why lump all 19 northern states together then filter out South South and South east from the South? How many votes did GEJ get in the North west where Buhari is from?
