VOTE SURPLUSES AND RELEVANCY: EVERY VOTE COUNTS
2023 election result can’t just be wished away. The result is highlighted below :
APC. 8,794,726
PDP. 6,984,520
LP. 6,101,533
NNPP. 1,496, 671
For this topic, the two leading Presidential election results shall be considered for our analysis.
The Surplus votes computation is by getting the difference between the votes obtained in each states especially where APC won and compared with the difference nationwide.
Among the 13 states of the federation where electoral success were achieved for PBAT election is Oyo State.
APC had a difference of 1,810,206 (that is won with) against PDP as the closet rival.
Oyo state APC at the Presidential election had 449,884 while PDP had 182,977 which gives a difference of 266,907.
Our Surplus votes Analysis :
Difference in Oyo divided by Nationwide difference multiply by 100%.
(266,907 ÷ 1,810,206 )100%
14.74%
Considering the surplus from Oyo State, in particular, came with 14.74% in this analysis despite her being fragmented as party due to internal crisis.
Every votes counts thus consideration should be to all states of the federation especially as the minimum of 25% votes is a constitutional requirement in two-thirds of the 36 states. Albeit, necessary and tangible amount of recognition in terms of reward system is needed for those who made the sacrifice during the 2023 election.
The germane effort from Coalition Movement for Bola Ahmed Tinubu (COMBAT) initiated by Sen Rilwan Adesoji Akanbi, a known and unrepentant apostle of Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu and other groups, Associations, organisations and prominent supporters of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu.
Time, Talents and Treasure were expended in Oyo State for about two and half years in subtle but rigorous campaign for PBAT course.
May President Bola Ahmed Tinubu Succeed
May Nigeria Succeed.
