"vaudeville of ratiocinations"- Patrick Obahiagbon's reason for the low turn out of voters

Edo State Chief of Staff, Hon. Patrick Obahiagbon opened up to Punch on the just concluded general elections in Nigeria..Speaking on the low turnout, he said

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.They saw in the presidential election a sui generis opportunity to get the yoke off their back and that they did ferociously. This passion was not as frenzied in the last election.
