Forget about INEC report for now. It is the report reported by Returning Officers at the Pooling Boots. INEC will only collate these results and announced the overall winner. Don’t be mischievous, it is the same results that INEC will collate. If it is different, then it is a fraud on the part of INEC. We are now in electronic age not NPN period when figures are only award.

The handwriting is clearly on the wall. Jona should know that he is no longer wanted by anyone. The dramatist over dramitizes himself once too often. It is not Jona’s fault, it is some Nigerians that want this country to collapse totally. God will not let this happen. Change has come.
