Oh, and Mark didn't mention that Bola Ahmed Tinubu was indicted for heroin charges in the US in 2003, forfeited $460k & is just too old to run a democracy this size.

Atiku Abubakar (second candidate) was a former VP and the president he served under (Obasanjo) still insists the dude remains a monument to corruption.

There's been a coordinated campaign at all levels to rig this election massively and we saw voter intimidation, manipulation in broad daylight, and the acquiescence of foreign governments to it all.

Proofs:

To explain the $460k he forfeited to the feds for his heroin trafficking indictment [0][1], Tinubu claims to have worked at Deloitte as a consultant & made $850k in pre-tax bonuses a year. Problem is, Deloitte claims he's never worked for them [2] and a director at Deloitte earns $340k, according to Glassdoor [3].

This in no way undermines your post, broadly. But narrowly, these are sales roles. Two people with the same title at Deloitte can make vastly different incomes depending on their production.

Ahem, somebody tell the U.S. that

From the looks of it, if he runs it, it won't be a democracy

Bola Ahmed Tinubu was born 29 March 1952. He is 70.

Joe Biden was Born November 20, 1942. He is 80.

There are plenty of world leaders that are old and I completely agree with you. Why aren’t there upper age limits? The UK House of Lords, US Congress and US Supreme Court have this problem too.

Until recently, old age was supposed to be a Good Thing in leaders, because experience would (or rather should) provide perspective to go beyond hysterical everyday squabbles and actually produce Laws that could survive in the long run. It would also mean such leaders had gone through challenging jobs, and demonstrated themselves worthy of higher office.

He claims to be 70 but it's been disputed widely - I don't have the energy to filter signal from noise though.
