Obahiagbon Again! Says Low Turnout Was Caused By ‘Vaudeville Of Ratiocinations

Edo State Chief of Staff, Hon. Patrick Obahiagbon, known for his mighty grammars has spoken about the just concluded elections in the country, and why there was major low turnout across the Federation during Saturday’s Governorship elections.  Here’s what Mr Obahiagbon told Punch;

 

How would you assess the conduct of security operatives during the polls?

The conduct of security operatives in the Assembly elections was certainly an amelioration on their performance two weeks ago in Edo State but the same cannot be said of their modus operandi across the length and breadth of the country. They certainly crossed the line of constitutionalism and democratic propriety in states like Rivers, Akwa Ibom and some others, which is certainly depreciable and outrageously despicable.

 

What would you say was responsible for the low turnout of voters last Saturday?

I’m sure the low voter turnout could be attributable to a vaudeville of ratiocinations. The presidential election attracted more voters ostensibly because that was the political elephant and was therefore occasioned with anttendant publicity ballyhoo. A vast majority of Nigerians were also righteously indignant of the state of economic quagmire, political phantasmagoria and social disequilibrium the philistine and clueless government of President Jonathan has plummeted the country.
