Your rights as electorate was stylishly rejected and you're there praising buhari and fighting on NL. Una mumu go soon do. Who tells you these people want to leave power? A letter was prepared and signed by buhari since 2nd week of November, only to be sent to the NA a day to recess and some ignorant youths are busy praising these people? You think they don't know what they're doing? You think they want electronic transmission of results from collation centres so that ballot boxes wouldn't be hijacked in their favour anymore? Or you think those in the political class in the country would ever want a transparent election? Historically, Northern ruling class had always used southern election results as a benchmark. You'd not see borno, yobe, bauchi, kebbi adamawa, kano etc, coming to abuja where elections are being announced until a day or two after southern elections must have all been announced, citing logistical reasons for coming late. Whereas, same people were busy in Abuja manipulating results with the aid of under age voters such that, whatever they bring will engulf southern results. That's why Northern youths and those with genuine purposes among them are always disadvantaged because their ruling class know how to manipulate them.

Pdp and apc, there's no difference and Ortom had further proved my point further. If you like, siddon dey look in 2023. The earlier you take back this country that truly belongs to you, the better. What happened to the end sars spirit which you once exhibited nationwide, why not apply it in floating a formidable political party with great contemporary programmes and formidable candidates for governorship, senate etc nationwide and see if you'd not win? Globally, old people are fading in pioitical space gradually and youths are raking over and moving their countries forward, check it.

Down south, if only the bill could be assented to, the osun incident would be nipped in the board. A police spokeswoman shamefully said on channels tv that a group of thugs were coming towards a collation centre in osun, in an attempt to raze the office and their men quickly repelled them by shooting in the air and incidentally, one of the bullets hit the petrol gen powering the collation centre where collated ballots were kept until announcement date and the bullet ignited fire and burnt the generator while fire extended to the building and razed it down. Meanwhile, the centre was razed by suspected thugs sent by the ruling party to burn the ballots because the opposition was having an upper hand in the area. With the amended electoral bill given assent to, such cock and bull stories can be avoided and vote would truly count.

I heard one of the apc chieftains say electric transmission of votes would pose a great challenge because gens powering gadgets can trip off...this day and age when there are several alternative to generator with longlasting battery/power banks. This model was used in edo and ondo elections without hitches, Anambra was the most recent one. Whereas, same politicians would be granting zoom interview on channelstv all the way from Burnin Kudu and screen wouldn't blink throughout the interview.

These people you're praising are close to their graves already and have nothing meaningful to contribute. You'd be the one to suffer it. You'd just remain in same position praising them while their children hold away, until one day you look at the mirror and see grey heir all over your head. Then, you'd realise how your youthful age had been mortgaged by those you've wasted your precious time praising and defending and their children they used your fortune to train will rule over you. Sadly, they're the same in that class regardless of tribe...be it yoruba, hausa and igbo.

When they want to steal, no amount can be enough but when it comes to issues of national progress which will bring about decorum, transparency, equity and fairness which they always don't want because nothing would favourable will come out of it, such an issue as this will always be frowned at. How much will a transparent direct primary cost, when compared to the subsidiary which they've claimed they'd remove and share amongst Nigerians to subsidise transport, which was in excess of 50b naira? People protested but they want to go ahead. The money which will end up in their pockets just like the one earmarked for school feeding programme which was still being shared even during pandemic when students who were supposed to be fed were already with their parents during lockdown. Several responses I've read here had simply suggested to me that our youths aren't tired yet. Smh!

You are really ignorant.


I don't bother to read through all your paragraphs.

That bill would have sent us backwards, it's best the national assembly expunge the direct primaries from the bill and resent to the president for consent.


Hatred would make you sit down to think from your ass.

Damnit!

You clearly don't know what's up. The rejection has nothing to do with electronic transmission of results, it was just a power play over whether to use direct primaries during the APC presidential and governorship primaries. The moment I saw that provision in the bill, I knew that the likes of Malami and the governors will fight against it. So I wasn't surprised when I heard that Malami wrote a letter to Buhari advising him to reject the bill and I wasn't surprised either when Buhari went ahead to reject it. All that is going on is just high level political power play ahead of the primaries in APC ahead of 2023 elections. This is the same power play that has made them to keep postponing the APC convention and elongating Buni's tenure as Caretaker committee chairman and now they are even suggesting not doing the convention until after the primaries in other to ensure that Buni or one of their loyalists is in charge when the primaries are done. This has nothing to do with electronic transmission of results, it's just intra party tussle within the APC being displayed at national level.

Nigeria don tire person dey should do whatever they want nobody cares anymore

The only thing that is clear from all that happened is that some powers that be in the country are doing everything possible to checkmate the presidential ambition of a certain powerful politician in the APC. Just remove that direct primaries issue from the bill and you will see how it will be signed into law without any problems.

Beautiful rubbish, how will direct primary set us back according to you.

Some of you would just be talking based on what whom you admire is saying. There is no personal and deep thought on government policy.

Just anywhere Belle face

Don't mind the guy, president Buhari was a beneficiary of direct primary in 2015 and there was no contention or court cases unlke indirect primary that is full of court cases

Apart from the beer parlor gossip u listen to .. do you even read at all.... myopic minds are always quick to shout... see the way u rush to comment.. it's like front page is problem

Ize iyamu &uba too.

Buhari was destined to win. So APC cooked their party register that gave him advantage. Buhari is tactically tackling the fraud that brought him the ticket. APC & PDP are free to use direct primary but their men in d nass must not make it mandatory for all parties. By the way what is the guarantee that a candidate who wins direct primary will win the main election?

Just go and play if you don't understand politics. You don't have to be emotional and start spewing cabbage. Your view about politics must not be a binding force on others who don't see political issues from your angle.

As hateful as ortom towards buhari, he praised the actions of the president even as an opposition. Even wike knows a direct primary won't guarantee him nor a southerner the presidential flag of PDP because the north will cook up numbers just as the south will as well. At the end, the best ringer wins

I really love your analysis but this goes beyond APC as a party. This is a fight of supremacy between the lawmakers and their state government. Remember, indirect primary may affect some lawmakers chances of returning especially where there is conflict of interest between state governors and their respective lawmakers. The governors can fight them using delegates which the Lawmakers across parties are trying to avoid. If direct primaries are adopted, governors may find it difficult imposing their pets on the state thereby losing control of their states to potential winners of the primaries

Direct primary will bring about less litigation. You already know what you scored without any incidence of cheating or fraud. Indirect primaries will continue to breed annointed candidates, as against whom the people want. Don't forget that Ortom is a politician, he would welcome Buhari's refusal to assent to it. Buhari, even Uba adopted and emerged through direct primary. North would never welcome a direct primary cos they are perpetual electoral fraudsters. We know already. Wike welcomed it. I watched him say this clearly on channelstv, that he welcome direct primary.

Do a research on Wike position on direct primary. He's a double standard guy..
