Okoroawusa:
I don't understand....na PDP lost for tribunal but na Obidients dey cry...am I missing something?

Brendaniel:
After finding out the method used for the judgement on the election tribunal that gave victory to Oyetola over Adeleke, I would say it is a recipe for disaster, the method applied was cancelling all the votes of a polling unit because of over voting in that particular polling unit.


The questions I ask are:

1. As it happened that there were over voting in various polling units in the Osun election, what if each opposition connives to perpetrate over voting in polling units in each opposition strong holds?

2. What then is the use for BVAS in over voting if after the BVAS is able to identify the number of over votes only to end up cancelling all votes(valid) and over votes(invalid) ? That is like throwing away a baby with the bath water.

3. If there is an election tribunal like this and a rerun takes place, what if the same over voting keeps occurring over and over, would they keep repeating the election tribunal process and back to rerun again?

In my opinion, the law is just an error or a purposeful scheme to rig an election using what I call reverse voting
Just simply tamper with your opposition strong holds and invalidate their votes, So we might be having a case where a carefully selected and protected minority will determine winners of an election instead of the majority carrying the votes.


Implications:

1. It will make elections become very dirty because politicians will be all about scheming to invalidate votes in opposition strong holds.

2. It will make the voters lose confidence in the electoral process, because a voter will not be sure if his vote will be invalidated or not by someone else scheming with a politician in his/her polling unit.

3. It will make voters wear out easily and may cause voter apathy when you have reruns after stressful elections, thereby reducing voters turn-up in reruns.

4. It may not reflect the true will of the people and also reduce the total number of voter participation, just like the Osun election tribunal, the total number of votes cast for both PDP and APC after the cancellation doesn't reflect the true will of the people to declare Oyetola the winner.

5. Elections will cost more because of Tribunal, reruns and time wasting.

6. It could lead to anarchy and total chaos, like in some volatile states in the north where they riot over political results, just imagine after election and INEC says they have cancelled over 20,000 polling units across the north which were all stronghold of a particular candidate, because of over voting of less than 2000 voters, imagine what will happen in the aftermath of such news.

Solution:

In situations of over voting, Why not just deduct the invalid votes(over votes) and count the rest, the BVAS already identifies the number of over votes(invalid votes), doing so, INEC will avoid a lot of election tribunals, scheming by politicians, reduce cost of doing reruns, make more accurate results, increase voters confidence, reduce time wasting, reflect the true will of the people and avoid anarchy.

Parachoko:
Are you sleeping when Buhari signed the new electoral law? Just because it favour the APC in Osun, you're now crying

When Tinubu said BVAS can't stop rigging, people were criticising him, saying he wants BVAS to be scrap so he will be able to rig

PDP.is not the only party that lose voted in the cancel units.

Osun Judgement: Governor Adeleke Addresses Osun People, Says Claim of Over-Voting Unfounded

••••Writes INEC over Appeal against Judgement

The Executive Governor of Osun State, Governor Ademola Adeleke has addressed the people of Osun state, restating his rejection of the Tribunal judgement and affirming his appeal to higher court.

In an address to the people of the state, Governor Adeleke observed the discrepancies in the judgement of the Tribunal Chairman, describing the outcome as "miscarriage of justice.

"My good people of Osun state, we have all heard the split judgement of the governorship election tribunal. Two members of the Tribunal delivered two opposing judgements, the Chairman and the member one. The member 2, did not deliver any judgment, she abstained.

"The Chairman's judgment affirmed the claim of over-voting, while the Member One's judgment agreed with our position as captured by the BVAS machines which is the primary source of accreditation data of true accreditation on the day of the Election.
"The reality of my election as the Governor of Osun State is captured in the member one's judgement. The claim of over-voting in the Chairman's judgment was unfounded.This was clearly a miscarriage of Justice. Based on the above, there was no majority judgment.

"My good people of Osun state, I am still your Governor. I have the right of appeal on the Chairman's judgement and I have instructed my Lawyers accordingly.

"You gave me your Mandate, our election remains valid and by the Grace of God we will triumph at last. I call on you all to remain calm and go about your normal activities, peacefully. Please Remain Law abiding.
"We have strong faith in God and in our judiciary", the State Governor concluded in his second state address.

Meanwhile, the counsels to the state governor have filed appeal against the Tribunal judgement.

The counsels have also written the electoral commission intimating it of the appeal and seeking non-implementation of the judgement until the determination of the Appeal.

Mallam Olawale Rasheed,
Spokesperson to the Executive Governor

IamNat:
Normal thing now, Oyetola also knew this, and he has said this yesterday that if Gov Adeleke is not satisfied, he should appeal the judgment. I just hope that by the time Oyetola wins again, you people will not turn yourself to judges who knows the interpretations of the law than the judges.

9jahotblog:
The "New Electoral Law" stipulated that, anywhere that is Over Voting; be it Ward (s) or Polling Unit, such Election area will be cancelled totally and call for re-run Election.
Now, it is unlawful for the Tribunal to cancel 749 Polling Units where PDP won and then declared a winner. It’s impossible and won’t stand.
Adeleke will surely win on appeal and the Supreme Court too.
We need to bring sense back to the Legal system.
Hence, Re-run is the worst case here if you cancelled 749 Polling Units.

support Adeleke,

For Tribunal.

Olori:




Your submission is on point.
The peoples' vote must count....victory should not be through the electoral petition tribunal.
Once again, the judiciary is on trial.

IamNat:
Normal thing now, Oyetola also knew this, and he has said this yesterday that if Gov Adeleke is not satisfied, he should appeal the judgment. I just hope that by the time Oyetola wins again, you people will not turn yourself to judges who knows the interpretations of the law than the judges.

Ofunaofu:


All Nigerians including Obidients made comments against the miscarriage of justice. It was nothing but a bullion vans judgement.

SmartPolician:


There's no special interpretation of that law.

The law says that there should be a rerun.

The two judges in the 3-man jury that ruled that case yesterday need to made to go on compulsory retirement.

Really the black market judgement in yesterday tribunal court will never stand in appeal and Supreme Court of justice. The last option is to declare rerun in all the polling units where the alleged over voting took place. As it stands today Senator Ademola Nurudeen Jackson Adeleke remain the governor of Osun State

What a silly solution wetin you wan deduct? How will you know who was doing the overvoting? Is it PDP or APC or LP?.....Anyways the electoral act 2022 is clear ..."the presiding officer shall cancel the result of the polling unit" that's your solution

Hence, Re-run is the worst case here if you cancelled 749 Polling Units.

Unfounded in your bedroom abi


Baba you don loose...no way back inec, pdp and apc all agreed there was overvoting. The law is clear it's cancellation not rerun......you nor rig with sense na why
