There must be a policing system that makes it difficult for anyone to walk into Polling Units bearing weapons of any kind and a process for dealing with die-hards that violate this.
That statement by the President can easily be misused by trigger-happy security personnel. Sad.

I have come to realise this bald headed beech is no different from your average sow. grin

Please Buhari, retract your statement and tell the security agents to give candies and chocolates to criminals who come to polling stations to disrupt the democratic process. I think that way, youd make a good Democrat.

You are a disgrace to sane humans

Like i've said a couple of times...give Buhari a microphone for 30 minutes he'll end up disgracing himselfcheesy

He is too undiplomatic and divisive in his utterances / leadership style.

We agree Buhari is not an orator or any of that with the benefit of his military background.
But we need something sterner to put us in our place. With this warning of shoot at sight for ballot snatchers;one would think twice before engaging in such act.

The rule is ,simply cast your vote peacefully and let others be. If there is any irregularities you can use the courts to exercise such rights ;but doing otherwise will be most unwise at this critical time.

I don't support violence, but this is the kind of language we Nigerians understand. Civility makes us unruly.

The problem of many youth today is that they dont know what we will be up against if Buhari and co are returned to power, just like I predicted in 2015, brace up for the worst. You may say it will not happen, please like this post as a reminder, even Tinubu has to down play the statement, knowing fully well the evil implication.
If you are a youth and you are hell bent retaining this government because you want your party to continue, please have a rethink and vote wisely.
Ask the Ogedengbes whose father was shot by back dated law for drug trafficking.
Go and do more research on tyrants like Hitler, Mussolini, Stalin, Azzad, Sese Sekou, Idi-Amin, Empror Bocande, Saddam, Baby Doc, just to mention a few.
If you are ampering your choice on INTEGRITY, ask yourself, how many of his friends have been convicted, Babachir, Maina and Ayo Oke are all free to mention a few.
Nigeria is heavily in debt without meaningful development, billions were wasted on Air Nigeria, Mowe, Ibafo, Aseese till Ibadan remains death trap.
If you want to vote for him because of Pastor Osinbajo in 2023, only God knows who will survive the 'holocaust' if it happens.
Your vote is your power, use it wisely.
God bless Nigeria and may there be a country to bless!

Bro no need advising them let them go ahead and vote for him those of them here are receiving 10k stipend which is part of the loot we are talking about and they come here to vomit thrash.

How can a president uttered such word in a volatile nation like Nigeria and he and his party are so comfortable with the statement. Why is it that blood shed and Buhari are so related? Same he said in 2011 the dog and baboons blood rant today that statement empowered the Boko Haram we are seen today and yet some useless things still seen him as their leader just in the name of party affiliation and religion.

Bro nothing is working in Nigeria at the moment.

Bro I dey vex for Buhari like to skin him alive.

It is very unfortunate a lots of people that claim to have being at the corridor of power pretends not to know how desperate politicians could be at a time like this.We know how wicked they could be and also aware of the dastard acts of politicians like Obasanjo,ATIKU,MAURICE IWU and AMODU ALLI in their 'DO-OR-DIE','Garrison commander'.You and I know Buhari will not hire thugs buts none of these names i mentioned can swear they have not finance electoral rigging in their life.Nigerians know who have been rigging elections and they will never change unless whoever is caught this time around is made to regret ever born.

People just like to twist and untwist with big big grammatical rigour. If some group of thugs brandishing weapons approaching a polling boot or running away with ballot boxes, will security fold their hands?? Are they not going to pay with their life. Or will security stand down and allow them to kill them first?? People just hate thruth in this country. Directly or indirectly anyone trying to snatching ballots or boxes is already endagearing his/her own life. I concur with Mr President. After all, if u don't snatch ballots boxes u are save. Its only criminals that are shouting now.

I hope political thugs most especially those in the opposition will take note lest they become victims of trigger happy security men cos they've gotten a perfect excuse to unleash violence on Nigerians.

Yes violence needs to be unleashed on Nigerians who engage in ballot box snatching........because those Nigerians do not think about electoral law when they storm polling units to unleash violence on innocent Nigerians

Stop making it sound as if you don't know what we civilians are capable of.
If any irregularity is seen you take the case to the tribunal.
But the case of violently snatching people's franchise then you need to a price (I don't support his penalty pronouncement, but something sterner).

What of vote buying, intimidation of voters, main rigging done during collation of results, etc. Remember you can become a victim of this "shoot at sight" in the name of ballot box snatching. You should know our trigger happy military by now. The order may be well intended but the execution may spell doom.

To Be frank the level we're in Nigeria the only solution to end this miscreants Is iron hand... Nigerians are not matured enough for the rule of law... Someone will see red in the traffic light and move is that person normal? Police will stop your car you'll zoom off, someone will tell a police man I can pay your salary. Our politicians will steal and wait for the judge to grant them bail.
But In civilized countries we see political office holders resign for mere allegations.
It's only in Nigeria, a sitting Senate president, governor, minister all have corruption cases and still occupying their offices. Because of the so called rule of law. The message these men are using the rule of law to pass to the younger generation is wrong. They're simply telling us that with money and a good lawyer you can buy verdict . We can still learn from China as civilized as they're it doesn't affect their strict laws.

Lastly if those ballot snatchers are treated with kids gloves the voters are not safe and if something happens people like Ekwesili will still call out buhari.

Aisha Buhari who reacted to President Buhari's comment of 'snatch ballot boxes and pay with your life comment' at APC's National caucus meeting, has been accused of mocking her husband.

Recall that we reported that the Nigerian President who ordered the military and law enforcement agencies to deal “ruthlessly” with anyone caught trying to disrupt the rescheduled February 23 presidential and National Assembly elections, added that he was not afraid of a free and fair election because he had received overwhelming support from the majority of Nigerians.

However Aisha Buhari who reacted to the comment which sparked controversy, was accused of mocking her husband by addressing him with Head of State Status "General Muhammadu Buhari" in her tweet.

God will come to our rescue, especially the enemy states. Just remember to include the government, especially Buhari in our prayers and surely He God will not forsake us in the hand of Buhari otherwise if Buhari enters power, it is bye bye to the people of entire south south, the east and individual enemies.
