Bros there is nothing like 50/50 in this case. Most of Dakuku's supporters in the sw and the north are not registered voters in Rivers state. APC does not stand a chance in any 're-run elections


My brother don't put your money on it oh... It all boils down on the Federal government interference with INEC.. Let's see how the conduct of the elections in kogi and Bayelsa will look like before we can conclude if this present government/ inec can give us a free and fair election.
From thr look of things, APC wants rivers state real bad

Buruji Kashamu, Gilbert Nnaji and other senators recently sacked by the Senate are still in the Senate awaiting the outcome of their appeals.No action would be taken unless the supreme court affirms the tribunal's verdict or Wike choses not to appeal(*which is unlikely)

Alright bro.

Wike remains the Governor until the supreme court adjudicates on the matter

Lol...gubernatorial election tribunal doesn't get to the supreme court, it stops at the appellate court.

However, Woke remains a governor if he appeals the judgement and until the appeal court gives judgement. After that, if the appeal court upholds the decision of the tribunal, he will vacate office and the speaker takes charge for a duration not exceeding 90 days.

Governorship elections tribunals disputes now end at the supreme court. The constitution was amended by the last Senate to accommodate that

No new candidates can emerge, only those who contested during the last April elections would be eligible for any 're-run.

Haven't read about that. I'm sure you are wrong, but let me confirm first because I know constitutional amendment has to be signed off by the presidency.

No need for the highest court... The appeal court would do, if it is in tandem with the Tribunal, sorry to burst your bubble the Speaker would be sworn in as Governor..

You need to check again. Gubernatorial cases now go up to the Supreme Court
