In my October 6, 2018 column titled “Three Reasons You Should be Worried about 2019 Elections,” I pointed out that “You don’t need special prognostic powers to know that the 2019 elections will be fraught with frightening fraud.” President Buhari’s refusal to sign the Electoral Bill is conclusive proof that the 2019 election would possibly be one of the worst electoral heists in the history of Nigeria.
It must be finally stated that current Political Exigencies, Permutation and Odds still favour Dr. Patrick Ifeanyi Ubah, ahead of his co-contenders, at the main Senatorial election in 2019…
