Dear ADC
As the election draws near all preparation should be concluded by end of November worst mid December, thereafter training our agents and canverssers nationwide should take atleast 3 weeks.
The ward structure is the most important structure in election, policies are made at top but ward and PU structure are the most critical in implementation, and please do not rely on any big man at grassroot it should be the ward structure and payment of stipends should be electronic.
Thanks
Arise news brought an oil and gas expert Nick Agule form Makurdi to talk about fuel subsidy and it's viability, instead of going against subsidy they were surprised he went the Atiku way and said is necessary.
When he was making sense and doing justice to the topic they cut him off that network now bad.
We all know what we are doing.
These five commitments will be at the heart of our advocacy ahead of the 2027 elections.
From the work we have done so far, we have seen several weak points in the electoral process that can be exploited or make irregularities difficult to trace. We believe these proposals can help close many of those gaps.
The goal is to make the process easier to verify, harder to manipulate, and more transparent for everyone.
If you agree, please share this and tag @inecnigeria.
The more people ask these questions now, the harder it will be to ignore them later.

'Let Nigerians breathe'
- ADC Presidential Candidate Atiku Abubakar calls out President Tinubu over plan to remove electricity subsidy in 2027, says Nigerians should blame themselves if they re-elect Bola Tinubu in 2027
So I came across this polling unit result while looking through the 2024 Edo governorship election, and the numbers stopped me:
2,180 accredited voters. 2,167 valid votes. Uploaded to IReV at 5:47:07 p.m. on election day.
Here’s a short course in arithmetic, free of charge to whoever filled out this result sheet.
Lesson 1: The clock is an honest witness.
You declared 2,180 accredited voters and 2,167 valid votes at a single polling unit.
Yiaga Africa’s observation of BVAS accreditation found that it typically took 1–2 minutes per voter. Let’s use the midpoint: 1.5 minutes.
2,180 voters × 1.5 minutes = 3,270 minutes.
That is 54 hours and 30 minutes of accreditation with one BVAS machine.
Now, I’ll be generous. Let’s pretend this polling unit somehow had two BVAS machines running continuously.
That brings it down to 27 hours and 15 minutes.
Lesson 2: Parallel processing will not save you.
Someone will say: “But accreditation and voting happened simultaneously!”
Correct. But irrelevant. :)
Let’s assume the polling unit had four voting booths and could comfortably process four voters per minute.
The problem is that two BVAS machines, at 1.5 minutes per accreditation, can feed the voting process at only about 1.33 voters per minute.
The bottleneck is the BVAS, not the voting booths.
Classic tandem queue. Operations Research 101
Then comes sorting and counting.
At just 10 seconds per ballot, counting 2,167 ballots takes approximately 6 hours and 1 minute.
So:
Accreditation: 27h 15m. Counting: 6h 1m. Total: 33h 16m
Even assuming the polling unit opened promptly at 8:30 a.m. on Saturday, you should not have finished until roughly 5:46 p.m. on Sunday.
No breaks and no sleep.
Lesson 3: There’s something called timestamp
The IReV timestamp says this result was uploaded at 5:47:07 p.m on election day.
That is just 9 hours and 17 minutes after 8:30 a.m.
So, under these assumptions, you performed more than 33 hours of sequential work in 9 hours and 17 minutes.
To make that timeline work, you would need roughly 17 BVAS machines running continuously and perfectly, followed by six straight hours of ballot counting.
And btw, I checked the statewide data.
The median was 111 accredited voters per polling unit.
This polling unit claimed 2,180.
That is almost 20 times the statewide median.
Closing note to Adeosun Oluwadamilola :)
Next time, pick a number with the fear of God, and one that a clock can defend.

When this administration removed petrol subsidy, it swore to invest the savings in infrastructure, public education and healthcare.
It didn’t.
Instead, they have spent on insatiable vanities and white elephant projects that only massages their ego.
That is why @atiku’s plan to halt the immiseration of working people and increase our purchasing power by leveraging subsidy as industrial policy has become increasingly imperative.
@AhmedIbrah99223@iamayolawal This is a compelling argument. Nigerians must vote in this direction. No narrative can counter these facts. The ADC promises to make things affordable. This is about Nigerians. No doubt, his constituents will get quality representation.
This is a masterpiece. The way @iamayolawal brilliantly analysed the current administration’s failures and presented Atiku’s alternative is more than enough to convince fence-sitters of whom to vote for in next year’s general elections.
So many architects have been complaining about the Architectural scale of fees.... A joint body of ARCON, NIA, and ACAN is working on something to improve it, and we need your input... Have you filled out the form? If you haven't, you can do so here:

Someone tookover leadership of a country when PMS pump price was ₦185 per Litre in 2023, and today it sells around ₦1450 per litre in 2026, yet you want to tell me that I should not campaign against such disaster?
In a free and fair election, without using state resources to buy votes & intimidate voters, this entire govt of disaster & its governors would be chased out of office before noon on election day.
Bayo @aonanuga1956, I have watched your obsession with HE Atiku gradually overwhelm your responsibility as a presidential spokesman.
At this point, I genuinely wonder whether your principal is still Bola Tinubu or whether HE Atiku has quietly become the full-time subject of your official assignment.
We gave you a policy argument. Instead of engaging it intelligently, you reached for “veteran presidential candidate” and recycled a claim your colleague had already pushed.
That is not wit, Bayo. That is what happens when the argument has run dry but the microphone is still on.
We have already answered the substance. I suggest you read the response carefully before repeating the same talking point with a fresh yet weak insult attached to it. Presidential communication should require slightly more effort than adding sarcasm to yesterday’s memo.
You occupy the office of presidential spokesman. Your job should be to explain and defend your government’s policies, not to behave like the administrator of an opposition fan page. Yet HE Atiku raises an issue and, almost on cue, you and your colleagues abandon Tinubu’s record and begin another group discussion about HE Atiku.
That is not you setting the agenda. That is you surrendering it to us.
And I find that particularly amusing.
If HE Atiku can announce one policy idea and send the Presidency into a full day of rebuttals, insults and emergency history lessons, then neither you nor I should pretend there is any confusion about who is driving the national conversation.
The irony is that you appear not to notice what you are doing. The more you make a weak attempt at mocking HE Atiku, the more you amplify him. The more you mention him, the more Nigerians discuss his proposals. You have somehow converted the Presidency’s communications office into free publicity for the very man you are trying to diminish.
So please, Bayo, keep going.
At this rate, I may soon have to thank you personally for your contribution to our campaign.
HE Atiku raises the issue. You react. Nigerians debate it. That is agenda-setting. And right now, Bayo, you are helping us do it.
@___kelechi That consideration is okay but more usable space should take precedence. 1 option is to move the door leading to the dining up by 600mm. It gives you extra cabinet space along the adjacent wall. The other is to place the door from the lobby through the pantry.
