What this moment requires is honesty. And the truth is this: an election in which thousands of eligible, willing, determined voters were prevented from casting their ballots by a platform that was not fit for purpose cannot, in good conscience, be treated as though it produced the unimpeachable will of the profession. The administrative collapse was too deep, too widespread, and too well-documented to be papered over with a result.

I tried all day to cast my vote without success. This is the worst NBA election I have seen. Imagine a candidate not being able to vote.

@belli_nation @Onsogbu @Rotankwot @ruffydfire @grok Not at all. I actually want to learn. As a tax lawyer, I hv a solid understanding of our tax system. I have also reviewed the new laws and compared them to the old laws. I haven't seen the specific benefits the new laws provide that were missing in the old. Enlighten me please.

@Tripledennis01 @General_Somto I live in Nigeria and this is not my experience. Pls how many checkpoints do you encounter when you step out to the mall? She mentioned like 99. The fact that Nigeria is bad doesn't mean every lie or negative story is valid. PS: not defending Nigeria, just called out a lie.

[Agbada Stephen @AgbadaStephen]

@belli_nation @Onsogbu @Rotankwot @ruffydfire @grok The fact that we think any person earning even N1.5m a year is not poor and that taxing such a person doesn't amount to taxing the poor really baffles me. What Grok said is not correct. It was just hallucinating.

[Agbada Stephen @AgbadaStephen]

@belli_nation @Onsogbu @Rotankwot @ruffydfire @grok Na AI be your tax advisor?😀😀😀 Very funny😁

[Agbada Stephen @AgbadaStephen]

@Tripledennis01 @General_Somto This is not about defending your country. It's about calling out a lie. Please in which part of Nigeria do we have the kind of experience she described?

[Agbada Stephen @AgbadaStephen]

@itz_taser Beating children is the laziest and ineffective way of raising children. It is wrong on every level. But no be me go tell people how to raise their children. I don't beat mine, but if you like, kill yours in the name of discipline.

[Agbada Stephen @AgbadaStephen]

@General_Somto We are a very dishonest people and I believe a lot of Nigerians export their dishonesty and fraudulent behaviour to foreign countries. They give the country a bad name abroad but we all act surprised when they disrespect us.

[Agbada Stephen @AgbadaStephen]

@cool54486485 @AyokunleAdetula @novieverest @taiwoyedele Do you even understand what this debate is about? We are talking about a grievous breach of our constitution and legislative process and you're talking nonsense. For people like you, everything is politics.

[Agbada Stephen @AgbadaStephen]

@AyokunleAdetula @novieverest @taiwoyedele That is what I thought they'd do. But instead, they decided to alter the laws passed by the NASS. This embarrassment could have been easily avoided. But alas, we are a country with little regard for laws and due process.

[Agbada Stephen @AgbadaStephen]

@General_Somto We think that the dishonesty and fraudulent behaviour we display at home would be tolerated everywhere. But I hear some people trying to blame it on the govt, never wanting to accept responsibility.

[Agbada Stephen @AgbadaStephen]

@lifeinsolace Is this all about bad leadership at home? Or does it have more to do with the conduct of some Nigerians abroad?

[Agbada Stephen @AgbadaStephen]

@Onsogbu @Peter4Nigeria @officialABAT @SenGodswill @Speaker_Abbas This man you dey understand English at all? You sound like you didn't hear a thing he said but still wanted to comment to show your lack of understanding .

[Agbada Stephen @AgbadaStephen]

Can the government collect taxes directly from your bank account? Yes! But that shouldn't give you a cause for concern. And here's why.

[Agbada Stephen @AgbadaStephen]

@RepRileyMoore, your hypocrisy stinks and your arrogance and wilful ignorance are reprehensible. Christians and Muslims have been victims of terrorism in Nigeria. But you want to use us as a pawn in your political game. Do some research and roll back the lies.

[Rep. Riley M. Moore @RepRileyMoore]

Christians in Nigeria are being slaughtered for acknowledging the name of Jesus.

That’s why I’ve asked @SecRubio to restore Nigeria’s designation as a Country of Particular Concern

We can't turn a blind eye to the suffering of our brothers and sisters in Christ.
