In the morning of the Nigerian Election Day, residents of Maiduguri, Borno State, woke up to thunderous sounds of explosions as Nigerian soldiers exchanged fire with Boko Haram fighters attempting to invade the city.No one knew the direction from which the sounds were coming. It was not yet dawn, everywhere was dark and no one would risk going out to find out what was happening.
The statement issued by Edet Okon, the police public relations officer, read; “Owing to the sound of heavy gunfire heard this morning around Maiduguri Metropolis, the Commissioner of Police Borno State, CP Damian Chukwu, wishes to inform members of the public that there’s no attack on any part of Maiduguri and hence no threat to public peace and order.“The CP, therefore, calls on all qualified voters in the state to come out en masse to vote for candidates of their choice.
This time around, the police confirmed that the explosions had to do with Boko Haram attempting to attack key military formations in Maiduguri. It was not certain from which side it came, but a particular RPG fired from a distance landed on a residential compound filled with women and children and left the entire place in rubbles.According to the witnesses, who are mostly victims, the warhead landed on their house at about 5.20 a.m; when the residents were either up or out for prayers.
Mrs. Hadiza said she still felt pains on her head and was having difficulty sleeping because of “the fear another attack might come.”She said she was performing ablution within the compound for her morning prayers when she heard a whistling sound.“Within a short while, everywhere was filled with thick dust. I was pushed by the vibration to the ground; so I crawled to find my two children who were crying inside the room.
But for the fact that she had passed the night with her parents in the next neighborhood, she would have been dead.“I ran back only to find my room in rubbles,” she said.
The more reason their votes were more than the peaceful areas
atiku Add this to your evidence. Everything matters.
Yet they came out massively and voted massively too.
Still the state got high percentage of voters turnout
And over 840k of them still came out and voted for APC.... wonderful
As they were fighting eh, we were doing our voting, one bomb even landed at our polling booth but we ignored it and kept voting our voting sir...
And yet the State recorded almost a million votes for Buhari. We hear you.😒😕
And yet they went out regardless of such wanton destruction and death threats to vote overwhelmingly for MBuhari who has not done anything substantial to their plight? It leaves so much to be desired with the whole election result outcome.
This collaborate the simple fact that the Election results were already written up prior to the Election. inecnigeria postponed the Election so that materials can be delivered to States while the REC write up results.
A place that produced the highest votes by percentage? God is watching our politicians and they receive their rewards in due time
So you have this information and you can't question the results that came from those places on the same election day? U guys are also part of the problem of this nation. Do your job deligently.
The government is smarter than the masses..
So how did the massive votes come about?
Yet Borno state churned out more votes than three most peaceful states put together. Nemesis will catch up with all the perpetrators of the rigging.
While they were fighting voters were voting peacefully. ThisisNigeria
Same place they churned out ridiculous voting numbers from INEC?
How come we had that number of voters from there then? Nigerian wonder.
