Where Numbers Don’t Add Up In Election Results, Mocking Profs Who Announce Them – Omokri

Practically all the Returning Officers in the 36 States of the federation, including the Federal Capital Territory, Abuja are University Vice Chancellors, or eminent University professors. This is meant to lend credibility to whatever figures the system generates as election figures.

Take for instance, the alleged electoral result of the presidential election that was said to have come from Yobe State:
Accredited votes: 601,056
Total votes cast: 586,137
Rejected votes: 226,772
APC: 497,914
PDP: 50,763
Sum: 775,449
When you sum it up, you will find out that it has passed the accredited votes with 174,393. So how does this obvious mistake rub off on the distinguished professor that announced it ?
Is it that it was hurriedly computed and given to him to announce and he failed to conduct due diligence ?
People are already saying that the figures in the election were deliberately calibrated to achieve seemingly innocuous genuine figures of actual votes cast. Speculations are rife, especially as the president rejected the bill for a much more modern voting system. As this gives room for manipulation, it rubs off negatively on the integrity of the exercise.
Let’s read the walkabout tweets from Reno Omokri, to get some insight figures that do not add up.
7-Kogi, where herdsmen have made life hell for the people saw a voter turnout increase of 22% from 2015. Their turnout increase is even higher than Katsina (7%) where @MBuhari comes from. They did not even use intelligence. Not impossible, but very doubtful#INECNumbersDontAddUp

The greatest miracle of the 21st Century is how Borno and Yobe, the 2 Nigerian states ravaged by war, also became the states with the highest voter turnout in Nigeria. Apparently, it is safer to vote in Borno and Yobe than it is to live and work there #NigeriaElectionMagic

1-Numbers being spewed out by @INECNigeria dont add up. Turnout was down nationally, but up in insecure states. Borno had 39% turnout. Yobe had 40%. Whereas Abia had 16% turnout and turnout in Akwa-Ibom dropped by 18%. These are statistical impossibilities #INECNumbersDontAddUp
