Federal high court in far away Kano presiding over presiding over an abia state case.

..

The case btw obi and tinubu will get more interesting in coming weeks

Zico5:
Is it not labour party that want to rule this country. Walahi nothing can work in this country. Peter Obi is not yet the president, his party is already in disarray. Everything is just upside down. The people I pity are the obidients still thinking Peter Obi has mandate somewhere to claim.
Do u know the reason why the supreme court did not waste time on Osun election despite APC winning at the centre. They know such nullification cannot hold cos PDP swept every available post in osun with one mind. They have no reasons to give governorship to APC.
The same scenario is playing out in Labour party. No court of law will give positive judgement or mandate to divided house even if they truly win. It's what we called common sense.

Does a courts ruling on an electoral matter depend on whether the political party involved is a divided house or not?

Nigeria Is just an action movie

bentenny:

The Judge who even presided over the nullification needs to be banned or suspended or warned about such error!
The window of opportunity to contest an election is 14 days after the primaries which is now a year old!
What sort of schoolboy error is this?
The one that is even making me laugh is the agbadorians that were celebrating the sham!
Indeed, you cannot be an APC supporter and still have any sense!

you ought to know that pre election matter can linger till swearing in even if it was instituted within the 14 days.

Now that one of their members has been nullified by a Federal High Court judge, series of analysis has begin to be published. Some says is too late, some says it's out of the court jurisdiction, some says it cannot stand etc......but they themselves has been going about like an headless chicken that the elected President should not be sworn in come May 29th.
Hypocrisy of the highest order.

Mtchew..

To think that When it happened to Apc in Bayelsa, Zamfara, these same headless mob were very happy cuz they were still in Pdp then..

Like say David Lyon wasn’t elected already..

He’s a goner..

He gone for good

Your tears 😭😭 sweet

The worst thing that can happen to any individual is being an obidient. One can never reason well.
Alex Otti is gone!

Blake755:
Please someone should educate me how do you leave federal high court in abia state and go to Kano

what is the difference between the two high court you mentioned.
olodo

It the writer's position is anything to go by then other candidates in court are just wasting their time as everybody was duly elected

What a joke taken too far. How would a FHC seating in Kano nullify a candidates of a party in another state? The joke was too much and should be a scene in a comedy series. Is there no FHC in Abia again, that one joker will go and file a case in Kano? The judge need be punished for his jankara judgement.

Christistruth02:
Abure the Chairman was not even qualified to hold the Primaries

The Supreme will decide

Apapa is more active, we love our acting chairman

chukel:

Oga is too late!
Secondly,the state from which the nullification is emanating from has no jurisdiction over a preelection matter!
However,I am willing to be educated if you show me the constitution where a pre election matter can linger after the window of 14 dats have expired!

Learn social media etiquette, don't go around attacking people unprovoked like you always do to your mother, charity begins at home, this is social media, disagree intelligently.

I must say thank you but i pray you use your head all time and disconnect from stupidity.

Federal High Court in Kano cannot hear a case brought before it from Abia because of territorial ground (jurisdiction). The aim is to prevent abuse of court, which this depict.

No law court in Nigeria can & should entertain pre-election matter, says the Constitution.......Too late for the drug peddler & his agbado dollar stuffing mallam!

They came too late...... desperate clowns!!!

The supreme court will decide, moreover like Peter girigory Obi is challenging the eligiblity of Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu Jagaban the Eze-Chukwu-gburugburu of Igbo, likewise the they challenged eligibility of labour party candidates not actually the primary elections

ODE!!!
what he meant by it's too late is that the court has no jurisdiction to entertain such case, there is already an election petition tribunal.

These are pre-election matters. There is a 14-day window after the primaries for such cases to be filed in court. The window has elapsed. Any case should be taken to the tribunal. It's too late already

Below is the CTC of the judgement, read paragraph 9 after that, eat corn and agbado in peace

StreetMedia:
Thumbs up.

Shalom.

Right side? which side is that?

alobright17:


So if court nullifies Tinubu’s election will the judgment also be a joke ? You people are too emotional to the extent of not knowing what to comment anymore .

Not everything you flex your muscle at. What you don't know you don't know. Many things are involved and let me bail you out.
1. For any court process, court jurisdiction is number one. A case that happened in Abia, cannot be taken to Kano for determination. That's tantamount to abuse of court process. Is just like taken an election case in Abia state to Kano state. Common sense. You don't need to be a lawyer to learn all these simple things.
2. Who instituted the case, does he has locus standing to do so? In a preelection matter, it is only a candidate that participated in the primary that can institute a case against the winner of the primary.
3. Another important criteria is the window period. When the cause of action took place and when the case was instituted. The electoral Act gives 14 days window period to institute a case in a primary election, counting from the day the cause of action happened. Any case instituted outside that window period is an academic exercise, futile.

If I didn't know much about who instituted the case and the time the case was instituted but number one has failed his case, for instituting the case against Otti outside Abia, where the cause of action took place.

Meanwhile, Tinubu case is not the same as this. This is more of preelection matter while Tinubu own is post-election matter. You're comparing the incomparable.

Festus Ogun is a clown. He has not read a list of authorities on the point? Yet, the charlatan calls himself election matters expert. Media practitioner.

I see NAIJA people and it's politics as delusional
Instead of true Federalism which will see to the collective continuation of this obscure democracy, I see The Houses try to outwit the Executive.....and so on.....
Now, a funny trend seem to be the Judiciary, trying to outdo who.......
