A welcome development.. We say no to ex military men..Buhari was an error ..we can't afford to repeat the same mistake again ..this is democracy.. Let civilians rule their world.

Okay.


Hope he was the best Candidate

Congrats my Gèeeeee.

PDP NEVER AGAIN

God save the Plateau, give her a leader that can return the State to its former enviable position as home of tourism and agriculture. The rate of joblessness in the state is mind-boggling. Tourism potential is now nonexistent. Herdsmen have taken over so many villages and sacked its ancestral owners.

It's not about APC or PDP, its about restoring peace on the Plateau.

God save the Plateau.

Good one.
In some people's voice now... this is a RAPE of democracy.Very sore losers.

All this their APC/PDP rubbish no kuku concern me.

But anybody that comes on the internet to shout Afonja Christian, Afonja Muslim trying to cause disaffection amongst Yorubas, Eledumare will decorate their household with thunderS.

So surprising how OYO and OSUN became their new bae just because PDP won.The same States they used to curse and abuse everyday.

YORUBA RONU OO. E ma je ki awon omo alainira ko si wa laarin.

ODUA yo gbe wa oo.

Congrats

Governor alert, as he is popularly known, congrat....hope pdp miscreants won't say let's head to court for stolen mandates.... yeye people

The reason why the election was actually declared inconclusive. If Gandollar wins Kano State then it means Buhari didn’t win the presidential election
