That judge needs to be checked and their lawyer must be wack.

Termination is like the employer saying they are no longer interested in your service, so they pay you your entitlements and allow you to go.

Dismissal is like being thrown out for wrong doing. You get no entitlements.

Well, if you still can't decipher what "a lot" represents even after showing you that screenshot, then I'm sorry to say that I cannot help you. Let your conscience guide you.

Your screenshot speaks for itself.

There is a difference between large and larger.

5 million out of 60 million is a large number. But not the majority (larger number). 31 million out of 60 million is the majority (larger number).

This is simple.

Buhari said "a lot of Nigerian youths"... A lot in English language, is used to qualify a substantially large amount which could be up to half or more than. A lot doesn't represent a minute percentile. I hope you understand the difference now.

Check the image below. I never failed English classes all my entire life.

I am yet to see in your screenshot where a lot means all, or where a lot means larger number.

However, Atiku was talking about all public universities graduates.

Bulls.hit... nothing but a huge pile of dog crap.

BMC crew, you guys need to use your heads more.

If we look at the statement that Atiku made closely, we can see that there was no mention of brainless, besides
, what he said was the truth. Most public school students struggle with spoken English language; many more still cannot write English properly.

Poor English language skills cannot diminish the brilliance of a mathematically gifted student. That much is the fact. Pushing this analogy further, from Buhari's point of view: The gifted student who wasn't helped a great deal to develop his English language skills is lazy. Buhari does not want to know what grade this math student finished with, he doesn't want to know that this Math grad has been looking for money and saving up so that he can go on to do graduate degrees... in Buhari's eyes, he lazy.

Buhari also never said 'lazy'. He also never said all Nigerian youths...

He said most cannot speak error-free English, which is actually true, but proper English has never been a test of knowledge


Buhari did not say brainless, and did not say all youths.

As much as I do not like Atiku, I must say to a large extent that this thread is deceptive. One, the quoted speech never featured the word "brainless". Secondly, there are so many students in public higher institutions who can't speak proper English. People who do not know how to use "is, were,are,go,etc". Quite often when you hear some of them talk, you start wondering if they skipped nursery and primary schools, and if they never came across "Queen's premier" and "Brighter grammar" in their early days of schooling.

Buhari did not also use the word 'lazy'. And he did not say 'all Nigerian youths'. If you could spot that Atiku didn’t say 'brainless', why couldn't you spot that Buhari did not say 'lazy', and wasn't talking about all youths?

‘Nigerian public varsities graduates cannot compete with my secondary school students’

19 November 2016

Former Vice President, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, has described graduates of Nigerian public universities as brainless, saying they cannot communicate in English with the students of his private secondary school, the American University of Nigeria (AUN) Academy.

Abubakar, who spoke on Thursday evening in Yola during his birthday celebration organised by the management of AUN, said public universities graduates cannot fit into private industries due to their poor education and character.

“I was in the University of Zik in Akwa in Anambra State on Wednesday on the invitation of the university. There is no student in public universities that can speak English in an error-free manner like the head boy of my secondary, who just finished addressing us now.

“When the head boy of AUN Academy, Abdullahi Sani, started speaking, I was thinking it is one of the lecturers in AUN, but only for him to introduce himself as the head boy of AUN Academy,” he stated.

Secondly, unused ballot papers cannot be thumb printed and stuffed into ballot boxes.

Stop being an ignoramus. There is nothing like thump print and ballot books in electronic voting. What you are talking about is electronic accreditation.

Electronic Voting has never been practiced in Nigeria. Only few nations practice it.

E-voting was introduced in Brazil in 1996 as a means to ensure secrecy and accuracy of the election process, as well as speed: the system underpinned by about 530,000 voting machines currently in place enables results to be processed within a matter of minutes within closing of the ballots.

However, a public test of the equipment conducted by security and encryption specialists from Unicamp and Universidade de Brasília, two of the top computer science universities in Brazil, suggests that it is possible to easily break the secrecy of the machine and unscramble the order of votes recorded by the device.


Brazilians unconditionally believe the [security of the] country's electoral authority and processes. The issue is that common citizens actually have no other option because of the lack of independent checks," says Unicamp professor and encryption specialist, Diego Aranha.

Another issue is that the Brazilian machines, which are based on the Direct Recording Electronic (DRE) model, do not produce a physical proof that the vote has been recorded. This means there is a constant danger of large-scale software fraud, as well as other non-technical tampering that could be perpetrated by former or current electoral justice staff and go totally undetected, according to Aranha.

The Brazilian Electoral Tribunal (TSE, in the Portuguese acronym) did not allow new public tests since the faults were discovered by Aranha's team in 2012, when the TSE granted access to more than 10 million lines of code for five hours. Since the system holes were found, the Tribunal said it would not allow further independent tests.

"[The TSE] said that my attitude was disrespectful and a threat to democracy, which is bizarre given that I am a professor at a public university," Aranha says.

"The reality is that there appears to be a conflict of interests, since the government wants to portray the system as bullet-proof and at the same time cover up these vulnerabilities," the academic adds

Electronic vote fraud

Electronic voting fraud occurs when the electronic system in which one is voting on computer touch screens are used to gather votes, but since it has been implemented in the late 1980s it has been prone to voting fraud and irregularities.

Although electronic voting can help make election administration more efficient, it has also presented challenges including software failures and a vulnerability to vote fraud.[1]

Types of electronic fraud

One type of electronic voting fraud is when incorrect programming causes machines to skip several thousand party-line votes, both Republican and Democratic. On old-fashioned, paper and optical scan ballots, voters can vote straight party depending on party preference. This one type of fraud that can be caused by incorrect programming[2].

Another type of electronic voting fraud is when it can be attributed to a programmer intentionally reversing the “yes” and “no” answers in the software used to count the votes or for certain candidates in a election. Those charged include circuit court judge R. Cletus Maricle, county clerk Freddy Thompson and former school superintendent Douglas Adams. The 10-count indictment accused the defendants of a conspiracy from March 2002 until November 2006 that included extortion, mail fraud, obstruction of justice, conspiracy to injure voters' rights and conspiracy to commit voter fraud. According to the indictment, these alleged criminal actions affected the outcome of federal, local and state primary and general elections in 2002, 2004 and 2006.[3] Specific allegations in the case are that Clay County Clerk, Freddy Thompson allegedly provided money to election officers to be distributed by the officers to buy votes, and he also instructed officers how to change votes at the voting machine.[3] Election officer William E. Stivers allegedly marked votes or issued tickets to voters who had sold their votes and changed votes at the voting machine.[3] Paul E. Bishop allegedly marked voters or issued tickets to voters who sold their votes, and he also hosted alleged meetings at his home where money was pooled together by candidates and distributed to election officers, including himself. He was also accused of instructing the officers how to change votes at the voting machine.[3]

November 2003: A MicroVote machine in Boone County counted over 100,000 ballots despite that there were only 5,000 total ballots being casted in the small Indiana county.[2]

November 2002: In Texas,Scurry County poll workers were suspicious about a landslide victory for two Republican commissioner candidates. Elections officials in Scurry County attributed and confirmed their suspicion that a “bad chip” was to blame as just before the election a new computer chip was flown in. After the known suspicion elections officials counted the votes by hand and after the recount found out that Democrats actually had won by wide margins, overturning the election.[2]

November 1999: In Onondaga County, NY Bob Faulkner, a political newcomer, went to bed on election night confident he had helped complete a Republican sweep of three open council seats. But after Onondaga County Board of Elections staffers rechecked the totals, Faulkner had lost to Democratic incumbent Elaine Lytel. Just a few hours later, election officials discovered that a software programming error had given too many absentee ballot votes to Lytel. Faulkner took the lead and later won the election reversing the previous decision.[2]
'November 1998: In an election in Salt Lake City, 1,413 votes never showed up in the total. This was attributed to a programming error which caused a batch of ballots to not count, though they had been run through the machine like all the other races. When the 1,413 missing votes were counted, this resulted in a reversal on who won or lost certain races.[2]

December 1997: In Akron, OH in a County Board Election in Portage County had Ed Repp as the winner of the election until a programming error was discovered that rendered a defeat for Repp. Another error in the same election resulted in incorrect totals for the Portage County Board election also resulted in incorrect totals for measure elections, causing massive chaos and extensive electoral recounts.[2]

November 1986: Georgia had one of the first electronic voting machines, and the wrong candidate was declared the winner in an election in Georgia. Incumbent Democrat Donn Peevy was running for State Senate in District 48, and the electronic machines stated that he lost the election. After an investigation revealed that a Republican election official had kept uncounted ballots in the trunk of his car, officials also admitted that a computerized voting program had miscounted votes. Peevy challenged for a recount. According to the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, “When the count finished around 1 a.m., they [the elections board] walked into a room and shut the door,” recalls Peevy. “When they came out, they said, ‘Mr. Peevy, you won.’ That was it. They never apologized. They never explained," said the State Senator after the apparent victory.[2]

First, they make it so difficult to get PVC, [b]now they are preventing e-voting knowing fully well that majority of enlightene[/b]d Nigerians are on the social media and they are prepared to vote out this useless Government.

The Nigerian youth should stand up and put pressure on this Govt. (INEC) to ensure that the process of obtaining PVC is easy and simple. There should be no election if 80% of eligible Nigerians do not have their PVC.

Please Nigerians, let's wake up.

Many advanced countries dont use E-voting because of the massive fraud that can be pepertuated from it. The machine is program to count certain percentage of votes for one candidate. You vote Godwin, the machine transmits your vote to the center as having voted for Badluck.

Do you really want e voting? Go and do research on the fraud in electronic voting and come back.

Anyone has right to go to court. When Abia votes were higher than some states with thrice its population, or almost as much as Lagos, Kaduna and Oyo, why wouldn't Buhari go to court?

You are wrong. Angola currency in the black market is worse than naira in the black market.

Angola refused to devalue its currency, so it would appear their official price is better than ours. But Kwaza is over 500 to $1 in the black market. In 2014, it was less than 100 to a $1.
