Title: 2023 Gubernatorial Elections Discussion Thread {Focus on Lagos & Rivers States}
Post by: CryptopreneurBrainboss on March 09, 2023, 10:30:45 AM

After our discussion on the spams the board was generating due to the Presidential election, this suggestion was thrown out there but upto this moment I haven't seen an thread on this.
Thankfully the election has come and gone and for next big event in the country we'll just create a thread to discuss things ongoing. For example, for the upcoming Governorship election, someone can create a comprehensive threads that put into account of all the 36 states or key states (states wey their election go hot) for decision. Now all decision will be carried out there and whatever threads that pops up in regards to the governorship election will be reported to be locked.

Now understand say this thread like this no be for politics in general but only for the gubernatorial election wey dey come up very soon. If you get other political discussion carry am commot for this thread so we no go confused ourselves. This thread na self moderated and any discussion wey no concern the governor election I go delete am. Also any topics wey concerned this governorship election wey dey outside this thread, report am to moderator with reference to this thread and them go lock am, that's if the person no gree hear warning to lock the thread.

Now to the matter's at hand, see our first discussion; It’s Official: INEC postpones Saturday’s governorship, state assembly elections
Quote
The elections, scheduled to hold on Saturday, 11 March, two weeks after the presidential election, will now hold on 18th March.

I think we all know the reason behind this postponement but you think say e go get any effect on the outcome of the election on the 18th of March like people go lose interest or more people go dey interested in the election, within you think? Bare in mind many people postponed their business/events because of the previous election date.

The fair unexpected results where underdogs won and irregularities that greeted the presidential and National assembly elections have opened the eyes of many politicians. There are reports that they've imported tugs to cause mayhem, which is why the DSS and other security arms advised INEC about the postponement.

This is a mixed development as lives and property are better preserved than any personal or collective engagements on the day it has been shifted to, but this is sad, especially for those that have important programs on that day. It's however double for those that formerly shifted their engagements because of the initial date, they will have to shift it again.

And truly, all eyes should be on the Lagos and Rivers elections in the south. I hope the security architectures would be rightly put in place to forestall rigging and snatching of ballot boxes among others. Many hoodlums are reportedly in the two states now, and the agberos in Lagos are another foreseeable issue.

Only God can help us in this country. The election that has been somewhat fair in the recent past has taken the backseat again. Let's hope that the will of the people prevails this time.

Make I start by telling the truth, I never know why they postpone the governorship election wey suppose hold this coming Saturday, but whatever be their reason, me never still dey happy with the outcome of the presidential election, so I be don talk am, and I still dey talk am say if inec no do the right thing concerning result of the presidential election, I no go vote on governorship election, and I no go ever comot say I dey go vote again .

For my area, people dey speculate say inec don get plans to rig the election again for some governor aspirants, this na why they postpone the election, so that they go get enough time to perfect their plans and strategies.
Whatever be their reason, what matters now be say, Nigerians have lost hope in Inec, and wetin dey pain me pass now be say, it seems nothing is been done to make them realize their misconduct and possibly correct themselves.

Which to me no be lie. Becos I no see reason why them go shift am if not to make sure say evrytin to use rig dey intact. The one wey dey para me na say the Justice system no dey work; like say the politicians don put them all for pocket.
 I still dey surprise Sha say pipo still believe in this " your vote is your voice" tin wey wen the whole tin shele, you go dey see case of " what I ordered vs what I got" case.
The mata weak me when I hear am o, becos ontop of this election wahala nah the cash crunch and I believe say most pipo don dey wait make the election do come and go so evriwia fit normalize. Make we see weda beta tin fit come out of the usual we dey used to na.

Make we tell ourselves the truth, without rigging and manipulation of votes, na wetin want make inec to postpone elections?
See eh na as I think am nai I go take talk am, I believe say e get political party wey dey try want collect power by all means and na that party dey work with inec for their their own favour, and sincerely I dey suspect wike and en political party, Rivers State PDP, because we dey hear romour say SIM FUBARA(rivers State PDP governorship candidate) get case for court for illegal manipulation of government funds, and if the case is not judge in his favour, en no go dey on ballot and PDP fit loose governorship,and Dem suppose dey court today wey be (10th March 2023) so to me I dey feel say na wike dey work with inec go postpone the election so that e go favour PDP for Rivers State...

From wetin me observe for this whole matter, na the court case of Peter Obi/Atiku and INEC concerning the inspection of ONEC sensitive materials and BIVAS reconfiguration be the main reason for the postponement. 
Now concerning Rivers and Lagos gubernatorial election, I dey see big fight for those two states. First be say, the status quo may change in Lagos but Rivers State is too hard to predict. Make we see as e go be sha.... but make every omah stay safe.

Read through the link I paste as source to the message and you go see the reason why them postponed the election. If you wan blame anybody na Peter Obi of Labour Party and Atiku Abubakar of PDP wey talk say make INEC no touch the BVAS but dem supposed reconfigure am for the Gubernatorial Elections. Based on the court judgement wey dem get from appeal na dem they cause this one now oh, make una no dey blame another person lol. Wait make I post am as the link talk.
Quote
The statement said the postponement was to make for adequate timing to reconfigure the Bimodal Voter Accreditation System (BVAS) ahead of the governorship and state assembly polls.

The Presidential Election Tribunal had restrained the commission from tampering with all sensitive materials –including the BVAS – used in the conduct of the presidential election following the request by the the candidates of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and the Labour Party (LP), Atiku Abubakar and Peter Obi, respectively, who rejected the outcome of the presidential election.

Based on the focus states; Wike dun dey play another politics and sadly people go still fall for am. See wetin I read for news today, Wike approves promotion of Rivers civil servants
Quote
Governor Nyesom Wike of Rivers State has resolved to implement outstanding promotion of the government’s workers in the state and fulfill his promise of employing 10,000 youths into the service.

The governor said that he had forwarded the list of members of the Civil Service Commission immediately to the State House of Assembly for screening to enable the commission to oversee the process.

Na another another political moves be this oh in my own opinion, because why him no do am since, na just few days to election him dey run this employment dem and who knows maybe condition go dey for the labour union congress in the state to support am for him boy to enter office for him to do more immediately him enter seat. This Rivers election no go easy, una think say Wike go fit put him boy for seat abi Labour, APC or even SDP wey Senator Magnus Abe dey represent go push PDP comot for office especially after wetin Wike do for presidential election.

Rivers and Lagos will be a surprise gubernatorial election that will make people to believed dat democracy has come to stay in Nigeria, if INEC will make use of BVAS on the 18th of march because, there is a great team work that is going on in south south to frustrate some governor's that works against the choice of people of south South during the presidential election. If wat am hearing now concerning the wealthy men in Lagos that supported labour party during the presidential election to defeated PDP and APC, are ready to team up again come 18th of march to battle with the current governor.

I completely understand your frustration. This election is different from other elections conducted in past. Thanks to BVAS the evidence is glaring. INEC said they needed 5 days to reconfigure the machine for the gubernatorial election and there's no enough time so they had to postpone the election, so let's hope there's no hidden agenda. My major concern na their backend server wey dem say dem go transfer the presidential result put. Make dem no come tell us another stories.

Na another political moves be this oh in my own opinion, because why him no do am since, na just few days to election him dey run this employment dem and who knows maybe condition go dey for the labour union congress in the state to support am for him boy to enter office for him to do more immediately him enter seat.
Rivers state na PDP state but LP dey cause serious political upheaval as we take see am for Lagos state and other areas, so dem fit pull some surprises. Also, Wike endorsement of BAT and him role for the election result for the state no go down well with many people so e fit come back come bite am. Him plan of putting him boy for office make him cover him nyash fit no work out. Wike approving the list of civil servant no be today e start, it's the politicians way of canvassing for vote in Nigeria. Sanwo Olu just paid 1.2billion pension funds to retirees. https://twitter.com/tvcnewsng/status/1633123965861232640?t=mNZcNK8AgJPQeJBWZpnuww&s=19

Many persons would have died waiting for this money and this is the time he feels it's appropriate to release the funds or he never planned to but had to do this because of APC shocking defeat in Lagos.

On another similar thread, I took my time to give 5 similar threads as well as the reason it should not continue (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5443670.msg61866085#msg61866085)
About the postpone election, I think pressure is now on the government and Tinubu is threatening Obi to step down. It is very crazy to see the disposition of President Buhari and also the recent public advice to support that crooked president elect)

If I am to predict both state governorship election outcome I will say River state will slide into an APC state if PDP losegard their stance since Wike is leaving office for a new elected person, the power tussle for a seating governor that is seeking re election is far different from when the governor have finished his tenure and going out of office,  so the PDP aspirants will have to work double hard to be able to beat the ruling party.

-Lagos  may remain APC as the party in Logas have to prepare ahead since the already know what is at stake and how LP outperform APC in lagos with a small merging, APC in lagos will ride on Asiwaju winning to accomplish their party re election bids.

Na better job you just do Sir "CryptoprenuerBrainboss", by creating this thread and given us a specified thread to yen our discussion ah eh dey hot, because no doubt say governorship election for Lagos and Rivers go hot come 18th of this month, because just as Wike dey plan to rig Rivers election for Sim Fubara & Magnus Abel and co no go gree,  na so Tinubu dey plan to rig Lagos election for him boy go Sanwo to go second tenure, and yet Labour Party dey really pull weight for that side.

But shah, here are the major candidates contesting in each of those states shown below

The country's politics are being dominated by sentiment, and our choices are becoming irrational. In my opinion, most of the Labour Party flag bearers never thought they would be where they are, and they have not proven themselves worthy of their positions except for the sentiment of their supporters. The track record of Obi is impressive, but what can others show? In recent TV interviews, the labour party's candidate for the Lagos governorship hasn't lived up to my expectations, there are some blunders that show he doesn't understand the job, Jandor has a very nasty history that won't help him, and Sanwoolu is the godfather's pet. Unfortunately, I have never been a fan of Tinubu since 1999 and may never be.

But for overall,  I don lose interest. I no go travel and I no go vote after wetin INEC do, e dey obvious say our votes no dey count.

INEC has disappointed all Nigerians, there was a day I bin dey go out nd in di Keke pple bin dey tok sae dem no go vote 4 naija Elections again bcos of weti INEC do nd di worst part bi sae dem do throw away dia voters cards. 4 Lagos nd Rivers States me I prefer labour party 4 Lagos while PDP 4 Rivers. Because di present governor is di won who order di military to kill di Nigerians youths in di #endsars. And also Desmond Eliot should be removed from state House of Assembly to go act Nigeria Movies.

That is my opinion for the whole Gubertarial Election for these two major commercial States. Go and vote for ur prefer candidate. I dey see sae political withdrawal is coming very high among citizens.

The election wey dem shift seriously caused aparty but me i understand there points. I feel also say the thing don reduce people ginger. Had the election taken place a week after the presidential elections I know say many sitting contestants for don pack their bags comot.

As for Sanwolu in Lagos firstly make I clear the air, him talk say no be him order that massacre during endsars and if you look am him no get that power because na only one political office holder fit order that thing and an him be GCFR himself but the reason why people Dey vex for am on top the matter be say na him talk say no killing happen and why na now him Dey comot to talk about the thing. I strongly believe say him biggest rival na LP party candidate but the PDP will definitely split votes. Had LP and PDP join forces together then they might have a big advantage to APC. APC votes might be coming from a tribal point of view and that is why they are inciting the tribal conflict that other tribes wants to take over their state

This could be true and also it may not be, as we all know the court has agreed that INEC can go on to reconfigure their system provided the back up the history of the concluded presidential election and ensure it’s not tempered with.

We know by now the electoral system isn’t genuine and that other isn’t as easy as it sounds I believe the gubernatorial elections was postponed to by inec time to come up with something to cover their tracks.

If na Lagos state election, I believe say Tinubu go put him boy there because na Jagaban na e dey in charge of putting Governor for Lagos state. This one nobody fit change am only God,especially now wey e don rig him presidential election through INEC,na so Jagaban go take rig Lagos for him boy. As for Rivers State,I see say Wike na the only and last Don for there and I don hear so many harsh manners wey he dey use carry out the rigging. This make me still dey believe say he fit still use oppression rig the election for e boy Fubara. We just pray make peace dey on that day of election because na power these people dey fight for and not for Nigerians.

2. The CBN governor and the president has refused to say anything about the supreme court judgement for more than a week of the new notes.
Do we need Buhari to come and tell us to start spending the old Naira note ? When the Supreme court that is superior has extended the date. Nigerians go get dread lock for head if na wetin them dey wait for before them go start to spend the money. The last time Buhari said something about accepting only the old 200 naira note,the court hasn't judged the case,it was only adjourned. Secondly, Buhari used his number six,let it not be that he is going against the supreme court and added old 200 naira to show that he also considered there power. This time the case has be judged in the present of Emiefele,so what does Buhari who only have only two months to go against the supreme court. Omo this time if e try am,I swear down when he commot for power them go choke am.

I beg to disagree. If he couldn't win Lagos for himself what makes you think he can win it for another person... Is it because he's the political godfather of Lagos? He might have been the king's maker of Lagos state in the past but I can tell you that the times are changing and people are standing up for their mandate. APC lost Lagos to LP and they would lose again if the election is to be conducted in a free and fair basis.

The major reason why some likely won't go is because of what in the presidential election results but one other thing that would have affected the coming election is Students returning back to School which has been postponed to 21-23 of March but only few will vote still.

Boss, with wetin Nigerians witness and experience for this presidential election, em go make, in fact em don make many people off their mind for wetin concerning Nigeria election. It will be hard for people to come out and vote again. As for me I don talk sae, I no go ever vote again. Since at the end of election, INEC or supreme court go give the winner of the election to the highest bidder.

As for Lagos election d so, there will huge turnout for their because  of sae many people don d fade up of how a particular peso go hold a state in ransom for so long to an extent sae na him the choose peso wey go rule the state.

If na Lagos state election, I believe say Tinubu go put him boy there because na Jagaban na e dey in charge of putting Governor for Lagos state. This one nobody fit change am only God,especially now wey e don rig him presidential election through INEC,na so Jagaban go take rig Lagos for him boy
No just think so. This year's election and previous years election no be the same ooh..  Election must change hand for Lagos by force. The kind obedient movement for this election no be here.  For Sanwo-Olu to campaign seriously this time for the upcoming election, suppose tell you sae water don pass garri for em side. Em boss wey be Tinubu lose for Lagos, talk more of am.

The strong candidate wey all eyes and hope d for na the labour candidate, there's every tendency sae em go pull weight for the Lagos state election. Na why d  d try pull am down in one way or the other.

The postponement no go get too much effect on the outcome of the election because even before the postponement, many people don already they vex based on how terribly the February 25th presidential and National assembly elections take go, imo it was a failed election because all the promises wey INEC give us, e no get anyone wey them fulfil, INEC promise say results would be electronically transmitted, but them no do am, coupled with many other promises wey them fail on.

Having said that, many people fit no turn out for the Gubernatorial and state houses of assembly election based on say them no like as INEC take conduct the earlier election, but the three major political parties wey be APC, PDP and LP they try encourage the electorate make them come out come vote for their party's respective candidate, INEC don also promise say them go make sure say this election they better than the earlier one, i no know if Nigerians go believe them, and there would surely be mass turnout, but e fit no they as much as the February 25th election.

In some places, this postponement go make some people come out for voting while in some places some people don already lose interest in the election.

Wetting me I de see be say, some of us no de satisfy with the presidential results, that is why them go try come out to cast vote for their candidates of interest in this gubonotorial election because if them no get the president wey them want at least make them get better govonor wey go help them.

Despite the Independent national Electoral commission postponement of march 11th Governorship & States Assembly election, I still believe that people will still come out in mass to vote their choice candidate, Obviously things are gradually changing as regards to how people did come out and voted during the last election. People are sick and tired of bad government across the states of the federation and wants to make sure their votes counts in order to vote out these bad leaders, no matter all efforts to suppress citizens from their rights to vote.

The track record of Obi is impressive, but what can others show? In recent TV interviews, the labour party's candidate for the Lagos governorship hasn't lived up to my expectations, there are some blunders that show he doesn't understand the job, Jandor has a very nasty history that won't help him, and Sanwoolu is the godfather's pet. Unfortunately, I have never been a fan of Tinubu since 1999 and may never be.
Success is a process and Peter Obi has started this process of operation show full working in terms of governing the people and has laid this good foundation for other Labour party candidates, governors, senators Reps and House of Assembly members to follow suit base on his track records, So whomever that finds himself in the party right now, if corrupt before will likely adjust to the standard that Obi has put in place.

Nothing person no he see for this politicians hands during campaign, from frying corn to hair plating etc. This Lagos state election no go easy oh. We know say Labour party been win their for presidency but na because if Peter obi influence and not the party itself but who this governor own go be. The candidate no too loud like OBI so I doubt if him go get same turn up as Obi get or maybe frustration form people go give am vote.

Una think say him go dey greedy and wan secure that bag as well or him go just allow make things play out as them do so eye go comot him side small. Sha make we dey watch. Asiwaju wise sha so I go expect am to comot hand finally for Lagos. If him still put hand then e go show him stupidity and fit make people para then come for am.

As a political analyst, I do not forecast anything like a powered shift in Lagos as a matter of fact, Lagos state na still one of the APC strongholds even though the labour party won Lagos in the last presidential election but with just small margins, some scenarios won't play out in the coming governorship election.

-Just as we speculated and suggested during the presidential election and going in line with what uchegod-21 said, the only time PDP and LP will have a formidable ground against APC is when there is a merger between both opposition parties within the state.

-Check the history of past elections in Nigeria, the only time a rolling party is defeated effortlessly is only when there is a merger between two or opposition parties to form a strong alliance, be for the 2015 general election ACN, ANPP and the rest merged and transformed into APC which was able to defeat the rolling PDP then.

-If nothing like that happens before Saturday, I am afraid the opposition parties will have a tough time in the coming election,  and the succestheyre recorded in most states in the last election may not repeat itself in this coming election.

As I dey see this photos self I come understand say lagos don get another gubernatorial candidate for pdp wey no be Jimi Agbeje. Jimi don too much hold the ticket. Wey be say Fashola won him, Ambode won him too and Olu won him. ThankGod new person don enter.

But for overall,  I don lose interest. I no go travel and I no go vote after wetin INEC do, e dey obvious say our votes no dey count.
This your top candidates for the Rivers gubernatorial election them no complete in the sense that in my observation one of the top candidates too is omitted among the picturesque you display. And that person is no other person than the candidate of the Labour Party in the person of Beatrice Itubo. And this omission just dey show say some people don already dey underrate the influence of the woman for the state and even the influence of the Labour party through the Peter-Obi-effect. One bitter truth be say many persons for we Rivers state son even tire for all these same faces of politicians and political parties wey don dey since 1999 and we need new visionaries.
Me I just believe say dis Rivers election the outcome go shock plenty people cause all the mago-mago wey Dem do for presidential election don open people eyes.

And for the one wey you say u don loss interest, my guy abeg never loss interest yet, dis country na our own and na only we go fit mk am beta and one of such ways to mk am beta na through the ballot... Wen we com out in mass vote it dey hard for politicians to rig am compared to wen few people com out. For example  no see as people com out for the presidential election com vote, na mk as Dem try to rig am Dem mk plenty errors n mistk way open their yansh for the world eyes say Dem rig d election wey even Dem no even get excuse to take deny am. So bro abeg try com out mk we do it one more time , our country need us now more than ever!

Have visited over 4 Pulling units across Rumuokwuta Port Harcourt, I barely see a crowd waiting for their turn to cast their votes, in my pulling unit the INEC official over their is even begging to see at least 40 voters which their is no hope of achieving unless things turn around later in the day...
What's exactly is the reason why voters are not willing to come out and vote their preferred candidate this time around ?

LOl, Your narration is kind of funny to me when you say the INEC officials are begging to see 40 voters. Though these politicians are good at rigging elections, at least people not going out to vote will give them a good chance to do what they have always been doing. But what I think is that citizens are not very happy with INEC based on what happened in the presidential election result, so they just decided to rest at home.

For my area people no too come out and people self been go play football this morning. I think the reason for the poor turn out of voters na because of the outcome of the presidential election. People just believe say INEC fail dem so wetin be the need of coming out to vote wey dem go still do the same thing... Na for beer parlour na im many people dey this evening dey chill because dem see today as a work free day to relax at home.

I no so many people no go believe but you see this postponement of election also played a part for this political apathy wey we dey record for this gubernatorial election. Even though people been dey vex for the presidential election, e get some wey been dun talk say dem go get am right for this governorship election but after the postponement, I believe some kind people go dun lose their moral and then no go even wan take the election serious again. Also this postponement destabilize many people business so people for dun use vex say no no go come out come vote.

Shey make we know say the cabals win for this one. They plan am well and use our inexperienced to their advantage. They really play us and now dem dun get all the freedom to rig election as much as they can. See results wey I dey see from Rivers State and Lagos. Everything just dey favor the ruling party. I think say dem say Labour Party been win for presidential election for those States, so now those people no come out again come vote their givernors into power. We never serious for this country if our focus na only presidential election.

INEC is the worst and most corrupt body in Nigeria because na them dey put us for all these hardship and poverty for this country dey make the youths no get choice on what to do. ICC need to judge their matter because if the masses vote for Mr A, INEC go lie say na Mr B win and this way the bad government go still remain without a change when the people needed change. I just dey vex that body INEC need to dissolve because they are all bunch of bad people wey no want our country to grow so that make the common mass no benefit but only them. The one wey them do for presidential election no do them,instead them still do the worst because nobody do them strong thing. Election for this country na show just to deceive the foreign nations.

*Na only House of Assembly election wey my state do. No governorship election happen
Reminder: My state governorship election go happen around November. Based on sae na that time wey my state governor tenure(4years) go expire.

You see this our election matter, INEC don write the result finish for the highest bidder before the election happen sef.

Like seriously, I really no know how you people dey reason at times. Always ready to call Nigeria with all sorts of defamation and disrespect. No matter what is happening, it is still our father's land and na we go make am better. For the fact that your prefer candidate won in your PU no means say they go win the overall election. Na game of number. E no be new thing for one party to win all the seat. In my state, the previous council election held in November/December last year deliver SDP in one local government from council chairman to all the councilors in that LG despite my state is an APC control state and nobody talk. Again na SDP won the assembly election in that LG but APC won the governorship. My point is that you no vote a particular party no means say others no go vote them. It's simple as that.

As you cast your vote finish, you no no Wettin other people vote, therefore we need to de speak for ourselves.
I notice say we don de get transparent election for dis country because we don de see changes from d candidates wey de win the election.

Sometimes, me and you fit de shout d same party, but wen it come to voting we fit get different candidate for mind, wetting make una get house of assembly for 27 states mean say una people still de do APC na only you fit de think say dem don divert if not at least some parties suppose win, but e show say una really vote them in, therefore, make we get positive thoughts about dis election make we no de always reason say na rig dem de rig am.

In House of Assembly, there supposed to be a minority group(parties) that will be in the House at least. Not having a ohh yes parties members that go with what the governor says.

In the history of my state House of Assembly, never has a particular party claim all the 27 local government of the state. Em never happen before. My state people go attest to it, sae this election wey happen this time, our governor do so many woroworo inside to elect em party members inside against the governorship election wey go happen for November

People bin come out to vote and then no just vote party na candidate. This BVAS actual curtail mass voting, if na b4 we go Dey say one state carry millions of votes give one candidate. But not anymore. The manual coalition of result bin cause problem but once we fit address that issue we go see front wella. Watin sweet me be say sitting Governors bin Dey lose senatorial seats and governorship seats to mostly unknown candidates. PDP and APC no be the only political party wey get force now, others don join.

The earlier we choose competence over party politics the better Nigeria politics will be. Most of those that came into power during this election running on the hype of labour party might be the flag bearer for APC or PDP in the next election.
These politicians rarely care about us the citizens like they care for the position they hold. And we should still choose competence over young leaders as well, Desmond Elliot is a a good example of young and incompetent leader we have in this country based on how much the people of his constituency hates him
