PDP Sues INEC Over Voters Register by Rawani: 5:24am On Feb 19, 2015
President Jonathan Cronies Secretly File 5 More Cases To Stop Buhari and INEC, Totaling 10

One of the latest cases was filed directly by the Attorney General of Plateau State and 28 others, seeking an order of the Federal High Court to prevent INEC from using the electoral register recently updated using Personal Voter Cards. The suit, titled Plateau State Government & 28 others V INEC, wants the commission to use the same voter register that was used in 2011.

The number of cases filed by President Goodluck Jonathan aiming to abort the 2015 election has increased to 10, according to SaharaReporters investigations.

Of this number, three are targeted at stopping the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) from conducting the elections.

Plateau State Governor, Jonah Jang, is President Jonathan’s Man Friday who heads the President’s faction of the Nigeria Governors Forum.

Other cases were filed by:

Selekaye Victor Ben, and targets the Presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress party, Muhammad Buhari and the Nigerian Army. Filed on February 11, the case seeks an order of the court to strip Buhari of all military entitlements and another order that would put Buhari under arrest.

“Presidential View and Endorsement Platform”, led by one Barrister Smart Iheazor, combines both Buhari and INEC. It contends that Buhari’s name on the West African School Certificate certificate recently released by his school in Katsina is different from his current name.

Sergin Onuka Ibe, accusing Buhari of filing a false deposition with INEC; he seeks an order barring INEC and the APC from fielding Buhari as candidate in the 2015 election.

An unspecified litigant, who accuses Buhari of being in possession of a false party card in which he claims to be a “civil servant”.

Barrister Friday Ojealaro, claiming that Buhari is not clear and unambiguous, and should be disqualified;

Shield Jones Ufot V Buhari, filing a criminal complaint against Buhari before a Magistrate court in Abuja

Chukwunweike Okafor, against Buhari, APC and INEC, arguing that Buhari be disqualified and APC name struck out from partaking in the general election.

“Society for Advancement And Protection of Public Rights”, which asks the court to disallow the use of card readers and nullify the ongoing continuous voter registration; and

Philip Agbese against INEC, seeking postponement of the the elections until PVCs are provided to all registered voters.

SaharaReporters has further learnt that these cases were mostly assigned to one Justice Adeniyi Ademola at the Federal High Court in Abuja. It is unclear why all the cases have been handed to one judge, but Justice Ademola is believed to be working hand in hand with President Jonathan to spring a surprise.

Justice Gabriel Kolawole of the same court had earlier received some of the cases but our sources said the President’s men wrote a petition against him.

Why is the PDP so terrified of PVC's?

The PVC's and updated voters register must be used for the March 28 elections, especially as Prof. Jega revealed to the Senate yesterday that over 4 million people registered with multiple temporary voters cards (TVC) in 2011, and are on the same voters register that Jonathan's cronies are begging the court to force INEC to use.

So much for Jonathan's electoral reforms. We need change.

Its now obvious that PDP and GEJ are the major problem facing Nigeria, not BOko Haram, they've been busy, doing everything to sabotage this forthcoming election. GEJ sef deserves to be disqualified for the role he has played so far in disrupting the peace of the nation.

Inec caused the problem, there is no equity in the distribution of PVC. If you were PDP and you observed that your strong base has been technically or scientifically rigged out, you will do the same thing.

Kindly explain what you mean by that allegation. Governors and community leaders in areas with low collection should encourage their citizens to go and queue for their cards. Northern Governors have been declaring public holidays in their respective states, which has enabled the voters to not bother about missing their work or businesses and focus on collection. Southern authorities can borrow a leaf, and stop playing victim.

The PVC distribution pattern is questionable, how can crisis prone northeast collect more than other regions and distribution in northwest is almost perfect.

Jega has been compromised.
Re: PDP Sues INEC Over Voters Register by omenka(m): 7:03am On Feb 19, 2015
Jega confirmed yesterday that there was as many as 5million multiple registration in the old register used in 2011. Now it has been updated and the grey areas eliminated. My question is; why would anyone insist on the usage of something that is apparently flawed and dysfunctional?? Are these guys so shameless as to now present their intent to rig in black and white??

After all these, some ignorant Lubbers would come here to tell us how popular Jonathan is within and without Nigeria and how Buhari stands no chance of winning against him.

Jonathan should simply go in peace, Nigerians don't need him anymore. Na by force to rule people?? What manner of irritating desperation is this??

Lagos, Ogun, Osun declared holidays and yet Ogun has 40% collections. Human interference is a challenge. You get to INEC in Oshodi local government for example and you said my name is Okechukwu Chukwudi, the staff pretends to look for it for a while and come back to say "sorry your card is not here, check Ajao Estate or come back later or fill this incident form". While you are still there, another came and said my name is Kasali Ayorinde, Morufu Ganiyu, or Babatunde Tinubu and within seconds they all have their PVC. Somebody somewhere is frustrating the collection. Or what do you say about the Rivers PVC allegedly diverted to Gombe or Taraba?

Did INEC prevent anyone from the "PDP strong base" from collecting their PVCs?

GEJ/PDP brought that against themselves by chosing to act as the president of a particular region. Now that the disenfranchised regions (who are obviously in the majority) are out with deep passion and enthusiasm to send him back to Otouke, you guys are here crying wolf.

If anyone is alleging sabotage, Nigerians know in which direction to look. Afterall the only confirmed case is of a PDP Chieftain in Edo state who was caught with 500 PVC's just yesterday. I also hope you realise that any diverted PVC is useless as only the owner can be accredited by the card reader.

I am a full blooded Ijebu man and live in Lagos and have since collected mine. What I posted is the complaints from my Igbo friends and clients who expressed their frustrations to me after several visit to the council office to collect their PVCs.

As it is useless to the person buying so also it is useless to the owner. One guy came to my office on his way from Council and was with about 8 PVC he picked for others and I asked how? and why? and he said once you identify anybody, the Inec staff will ask you to sign for it without collecting even your particulars. The question is what if the person did not give it to the owners or e.g if I identify Omenka PVC and I know he will vote for Apc, I may withhold it till after election. That is minus one vote for Apc and when he gets to Inec office they will tell him that somebody has collected it for him. Who? They don't know. That is what I termed human interference.
