ELECTIONS: Do you think postponement’ll guarantee free, fair exercise?

By
APC government has failed Nigerians. I don’t think there will be election on February 23 2019 again. Everybody is calling on the INEC chairman, Prof. Mahmood Yakubu to step down. He knows that all that is playing out is a game by the ruling party and he is just trying to keep quiet.

Yes, I believe there will be free and fair election. No matter what anybody does, I believe the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, is capable of conducting a credible election this year. Nigerians should be rest assured that election will hold and it will be free and fair.
Mr. Jimoh Saheed Businessman

When the goal post is changed at the last minute, the credibility of the process is irrevocably compromised. The Independent National Electoral Commission ,INEC, postponed the election in a way that discredits their claim of impartiality. I doubt if the election would have been postponed if it was going to favour the ruling party. Mr. Fasipe Oluyemi,
Communication strategist

I assume the elections will be free and fair because if INEC does not encounter any challenge. It was difficult to postpone an election Nigeria spent so much resources on. Without cogent reasons, the election would not have been postponed. Without challenges the polls would be free and fair.
Mr Omobola Adenuga, Engineer

With the current situation, the election will not be free and fair. W-In a free and fair contest, Atiku will win but with the help of the armed forces and INEC, the election will be rigged in favour of the APC and the UK and PDP supporters will not accept the result which might lead to the election being declared inconclusive.

According to INEC, a last minute review of its logistics and operational plans necessitated the election postponment. Obviously, INEC is not telling Nigerians the whole truth about the postponement.
And that, itself raises a big question on the prospects of a free and fair exercise next week.

Prostitution; Nigerian Women At Growing Risk From Human Traffickers In Germany.

According to InfoMigrants, Nigerian women are at growing risk from traffickers in Germany who exploit and engage them in prostitution. Read the full report below by InfoMigrants. The new prostitute protection law in Germany was meant to identify victims of human trafficking – most of them migrant women. More than 18 months after the law came into effect, thousands continue to be targeted for exploitation, and the risk for Nigerian women seems to be increasing. There are campervans parked by the roadside. Some have hearts painted on them, one says “girls, girls” in red letters. It’s an easy matter for someone to stop for a quick transaction in one of these Love-Mobiles – sex with one of the “girls” in exchange for the going rate. Prostitution is mainly legal in Germany, as are these mobile brothels. But many of the women in the business – including those working from the Love-Mobiles – are victims of illegal human trafficking. Most of the women are from Eastern Europe or Nige

FULL TEXT: A sacrifice for our new political order – Ezekwesili

“When the ACPN leadership approached me in a series of visits to appeal that I run for office on their platform, the party appeared to be a good fit. It was founded by some disgruntled PDP members some years ago, but when its prime founder decided to return to the PDP, a core of its membership refused to move back with him. I was told that they stayed back because of their opposition to the ways of the PDP. Considering my vocal disapproval of the PDP and the APC, I admired the ACPN’s decision to stand firm and refusal to be co-opted.” It has been an interesting one week since I made the tough but necessary decision to suspend my campaign for the presidency. I have been truly overwhelmed by the reactions to my announcement from Nigerians. Even in airports outside the country as I travelled last week, Nigerians walked up to me with questions, concerns, encouragement, and motivation. I also saw disappointment by some who had poured their hearts and hopes into actualising our mission
