"BOKO HARAM IS THE WINNER OF THE FEBRUARY 14, 2015 PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION IN NIGERIA"

Nigeria made the global history yesterday when its electoral body, the INEC decided not to join the league of the nations of the world in this 21st century, such as, Afghanistan, Syria and Iraq that had conducted their own national elections in the midst of those ongoing wars in their countries. The INEC decided to push forward the scheduled dates of the Nigerian elections and claimed that the Nigerian military and security forces refused to provide the needed security for those scheduled elections. Prof. Attahiru Jega, the head of INEC also said that the military will start fighting the Boko Haram insurgency in the North-East of Nigeria  beginning from February 14, 2015, the same day that the rescheduled Nigeria's presidential election was to take place initially. The Boko Haram insurgency is now over 6 years old in Nigeria and It has so far claimed over 18,000 Nigerian life and displaced another 1.5 million as internal refugees. The Boko Haram insurgency is happening in the 3 states of Borno, Adamawa and Yobe out of the 36 states in Nigeria. The Boko Haram insurgency is active in 10 local government areas of Borno State, 2 local government areas of Yobe State and 2 local government areas of Adamawa State out of the entire 774 local government areas of Nigeria. The territory that is presently under the control of Boko Haram in Nigeria is about the same size as the European nation of Belgium.





Nigeria is a typical banana republic in all ramifications. Where in the democratic nations of the world today is their military ever used to conduct their elections except in Nigeria? Is the conduction of an election for a country now the same thing as the theater of war that requires the military to supervise it and be in control of it? What are the constitutional responsibilities of the Nigerian Police Force? This is "Babanla Nonsense" which means a very stupid decision according to the late Fela Kuti of Nigeria. This can only happen in a lawlessness nation where the constitution and the rule of law are never respected by the leaders of such a country like Nigeria

Nigeria in my own judgement is a lawless country. Election in Nigeria is a constitutional issue in which every eligible Nigerian enjoys under the supreme law of the land. One of the constitutional responsibilities of the Nigerian military and the security agencies is to provide national security for the elections in Nigeria. The military and the security agencies of Nigeria have no constitutional power and rights to turn down this constitutional responsibility. The military and the security agencies of Nigeria are directly under the command of President Jonathan Goodluck, who is the commander-in-chief of the Nigerian armed forces and her security agencies. This is President Jonathan Goodluck at work in all reality. Will the Nigerian INEC under the supervision of this President  conduct a free, fair, transparent, credible and all-inclusive elections in Nigeria on the new dates of March 28, 2015 and April 11, 2014 respectively? Only time and events in Nigeria in the next 6 weeks can surely tell.  .
