The Conspiracy Theories About The Elections
Conspiracy theories are often baseless and almost certainly nonsense. But at this point where all kinds of reports are flying around and nobody’s sure what’s coming up, people are really taking some of these theories seriously.
One of the theories that was in the media before the election was postponed last week was that the government was plotting to postpone the election. And the election was eventually postponed. So it looks like the conspiracy theories aren’t so ludicrous...
after all if you look at the current political situation.
On that note Adedayo Ademagun, Naij correspondent and
contributor on political issues, discusses five things that might happen
before March 28 based on the conspiracy theories spreading right now.
1. The election will be shifted again.
INEC said it postponed the elections to avert potential insecurity, but most people think this is a ploy by the president and his team to buy themselves some more time so they can work out some strategy.
Now some people suspect the election will be shifted again
because there’s been no clear assurance that the security people won’t
push for another extension.
So are we going to have another extension to give the army
and its foreign allies some more time to fight the insurgency in the
northeast? That’s the next statement some people are expecting from the
government or Jega.
