doesn't make sense.....some just collected presidential paper to vote...

But they got accredited once for the 3 posts before collecting the presidential paper to vote

those who did not vote would not understand, and some are just dull.
the OP is raising a valid point that should be addressed in the next election and they are already fidgetting

Kdon2:



What he is saying is that you are at least acredited. Simple

All we need right now with the op analysis is to look out for datas of senatorial elections and presidential election in a particular state to show INEC gross ineptitude and manipulation.

tk4rd:
Now tell me..
You were accredited only ONCE, to vote for three posts..
One Accreditation.. Not Twice..
Now, after the results were called, the number of accredited voters pulled together varied so widely for the three elections, for which accreditation was done just ONCE..
My brother, can you explain that too??
Why did Number of Accredited Voters in a state so different from the sum of the Accredited Voters in the senatorial zones of the same state?

You made sense. In fact you have given the opposition party free evidence to support their case. Going with this logic the whole election will be cancelled because it's obvious the election it's a sham.

What of that manual accreditation?

hoseao:

no that's not what he is saying, I was part of the ad hoc staff, when you do accreditation it is for the three elections, so there is no way presidential accreditation should differ from house of rep or senate

Are people allowed to reject voting in any of the 3? Say I want only HOR ballot paper and not the other 2

espn:
so if i voted buhari for PRESIDENCY i must vote an APC for SENATORIAL... u r very funny...

sry u didn't get his analysis, he said after accreditation 3 Ballot papers are issued 1presidential 2 senate 3 reps. while would presidential ballot b eg 100 while Senate ballot papers are 37,reps 37 ballot papers each,whereas they wher supposed to be issued concurrently

The OP is not partisan. He is laying the blame with INEC. PDP and APC both rigged the election-INEC sold out to politicians.

According to Inec everyone had to be electronically accredited

This post is on point, accreditation was done once and only with Smart Card Reader therefore allowing each voter to vote a maximum of seats.

PDP really has a genuine case here.

Card readers will expose the fraud.

Following Simple logic, the total accredited voters for the presidential election officially announced in any state should be equal to the sum of the total accredited voters for the senatorial elections officially announced in all the senatorial zones in the same state, and same thing should be the case for all the federal constituencies in the state. ,, since the accreditation for the presidential, senatorial, and house of representatives elections were done at the same time on each voter, and it was done just once.
...
(Since some voters might have declined to collect the three papers at once after they were accredited, but rather decided to collect only the ones they are interested in, it may not be the best to use “total votes cast” in this exercise.. But then, “total accredited voters” is the better tool for analysis and comparison)
...
Save for some few outright cancellations which were officially announced and documented by INEC and can also be added in order to make it tally, the figures from the three separate elections, under normal circumstances, are supposed to tally perfectly.
....
Now, it is time to catch INEC with their own officially announced figures.. The states with large differences are the States with the worst manipulation of results..
..

It is an exercise.
Let's measure the degree of manipulation by ourselves.

i understand this simple logic very well but can OP give us example of state that accredited voters for president are not equal to accredited voters for all the senatorials in that state, thanks.

I'm in total shock to see majority of youths here still argue with you upon this explanation

INEC hav succeeded in making Court and lawyers very fruitful in days ahead

Don't blame them-Nigeria's corrupt politicians destroyed the education system, so majority of youths will not be able to reason critically.

Op, if I understand your logic correctly... Number of accredited voters in HoR election=senate election=presidential election.?
Makes sense.

Someone should get us data from a state up north lets do d analysis

espn:
so if i voted buhari for PRESIDENCY i must vote an APC for SENATORIAL... u r very funny...

Oga at least put your brain to work before quoting people. Read what he said first and not to jump into an inconclusive conclusion like INEC

This is a valid logic, can we just get example of states with this discrepancies?

the problem is that there is no law backing cardreader

Accredited and not collected. Total accreditation should be same. Voters weren't accredited by collection of ballot paper but rather their pvc or signing and thumb printing of the voters register.

This post is on point but we have to consider the locations where accreditation was not done through the smartcard readers.

this is how we should be thinking. the problem we have in Nigeria is that we have so many idiots. Who can no longer reason for themselves despite all the degrees and certificates they have gotten. You can't just announce somebody the winner of an election without valid data to back it up.

You will be doing permutations and calculations till 2023 elections. All these your logics and points are not enough to overturn any presidential elections. Go and find out what happened in 2003. The presidential election result in Ogun State(OBJ state) was canceled by the court but that was not enough to overturn the whole presidential result

Charade of an election! Over a million votes unaccounted for in election that there was simultaneous accreditation and voting. Or did some people collect ballot papers and went home with them.

You are a clear example of dumb Nigerians. His post makes perfect sense.

dhestiney:
Which kind thing be this na? Nigerians are getting dumber by the day!!

All nairaland intellects should gather in this thread

jojomario:
It's is not compulsory you collect all the ballot papers. I can decide to collect for Senatorial and leave the rest. The argument is not real.

you seem not to understand the op.

You were accredited once.. whether you collect one or all the ballot papers is not what we talking about.

If 100 people came out to vote in a state,these 100 people will be accredited only once, meaning the total number of accredited voters will be 100.

These 100 voters can decide to only vote for presidency and not voting for the national assembly elections, it won't still change the fact that there are still 100 accredited voters,since accreditation is done only once.

Since 3 senatorial districts make up a state, it is simple logic that it is these same 100 people that were accredited that will still vote for their various senators if they so wish..

Now the error will be when the returning officers for the various senatorial zones announce the number of accredited voters in their various senatorial districts in the same state that has 100 accredited voters and the number is now different from 100.

This is simple logic and mathematics

If you still don't understand at this level then am sincerely sorry.....
