| 13:39 UK time, Monday, 18 April 2011
Well that's Fade1 pessimistic take on Nigeria's election this weekend but the African Union observer team said it was Nigeria's best poll for decades.
#Wuse, #Kaduna are all trending on twitter and that's because there is violence breaking out right now in those areas of Nigeria, in the aftermath of this election.

With nearly all the votes counted, it looks like Goodluck Jonathan will become president.
The supporters of his main rival Muhammadu Buhari, who is popular in the north are now angry and disputing the results.
Mr. Buhari told Al-Jazeera:
'We have evidence in our hands that the computers (used in the voting process), were programmed to produce rigged results.'
Mr. Buhari has also condemned the violence taking place now.
There's a difference of opinion, definitely on how succesful this election has been. How do you see it? I know we have many Nigerian listeners who are passionate about politics and also lots of you, not Nigerian, but are ready to get in on the conversation. Please do post below.
