The apparent becomes opaque only when it doesn't satisfy an individual interest in Naija. Let's leave matter for the Mathias/INEC. Whether you like it or not, God's choice shall be declared the winner and returned elected ASAP. |

famouscargo4u: No matter how they try to spin it, the constitution states clearly that Abuja is a state. Maybe the people that wrote this constitution are just confused. |

Re: Femi Falana Misquoted About FCT 25% Requirements by NothingDoMe: 4:28pm On Feb 28, 2023 |
Balogunodua:You're dwelling too much on the state thing. 299 does not cancel out FCT status of Abuja. Abuja remains the FCT according to the law. If Abuja is still the FCT then 134 still applies. You must get 25% in the FCT. 3 Likes 2 Shares |

NothingDoMe: You can't delete the section 299 to favour 134 Oga it won't be possible. The sec 299 is also part of the law and still applies to Abuja. |
Re: Femi Falana Misquoted About FCT 25% Requirements by NothingDoMe: 4:37pm On Feb 28, 2023 |
Balogunodua:Problem is we don't agree on the meaning of 299. I follow exactly what is written in 299. It says "as if it were". Meaning it is not but should be treated as if it is. which part of the 299 are you using to buttress your point? 1 Like |
Re: Femi Falana Misquoted About FCT 25% Requirements by NothingDoMe: 4:39pm On Feb 28, 2023 |
Balogunodua:Oh yeah. INEC can't attach meanings to 134. They follow as it is. |
Re: Femi Falana Misquoted About FCT 25% Requirements by Balogunodua(m): 4:42pm On Feb 28, 2023 |
NothingDoMe: Section 299 of the constitution says that for the purpose of interpretation of the Constitution, the FCT is regarded as a State. Is this not what it says? Abi you get another meaning ni. |

IVORY2009:36 states and FCT means across the 37 federal units. The constitution cannot say 37 states. That's a common phrase in federal goverment documents. |

So now the problem is no longer "they didn't upload the result on irev" or they rigged Lagos. it is 25% in FCT? You yourself use your gumption to reason the spirit of that requirement. What is special about Abuja that ine must get 25% there before becoming the president?. Honestly Obiedients dey always fall hand! When emotion impairs your sense of judgement, it's time to self-check! |
Re: Femi Falana Misquoted About FCT 25% Requirements by IVORY2009(m): 12:41am On Mar 01, 2023 |
Buccalcavity2: Bros Abuja is very special in the sense that it's unify the country, that's is why the constitution gave special preference to it, that whoever that wants to be president must win 25% votes from there, unfortunately Tinubu, Atiku and Co fail to meet this requirement, but Peter Obi does. |
