...The Presidential elections has ended, The winners are celebrating while the losers, typically Nigerian are crying foul, we still have a long way to go to get to a level where people must understand that when elections take place , there are losers and there are winners. there are people in this country that would never accept defeat even if it stares them in the face and it is written in black and white. i am particularly dissapointed in the Gen Buhari who should have called his supporters to order, even if they felt they were shortchanged, going on rampage is never a way to deal with the fact that their candidate failed at the polls. My Polling unit voted ACN Candidates during the National assembly polls...and the same set of people decide to vote the PDP Candidate a week later....People wanted a change, and i believe people saw that change more in Jonathan than any of the other candidates, even though he belongs to the PDP.
Looking at the Demographics, it shows that Nigerians still vote along the pattern of tribal and ethno- religious sentiments rather than who they believe perform better, judging from the overwhelming support Gen Buhari got in the Norther states and Jonathan sweeping of the Southern States...so what to these guys from the north won..U guys voted for Buhari, I a Lagosian that have lived all my Life in Lagos, voted for Nuhu Ribadu, but The rest of The Population wanted Jonathan for whatever reason, why then should any sane Person go on burning, killing and maiming fellow Nigerians.it is utterly disgusting...why then do we continue to pretend that we are a nation
