Update: Tribunal strikes out disqualification suit against Sanwo Olu on submission of FAKE WAEC certificate instituted by Jandor.

The court ruled that possession of a WAEC certificate is not one of the grounds for qualification or disqualification under sections 177 and 182(1)(j).

This is the same scenario with the Presidential election tribunal, the Enugu State governorship tribunal.

The tribunal does not punish them for providing fake certificates but just says they do not need the fake certificates submitted.

Throwback:
A loser with less than 100k votes is not challenging the scores of the winner at over 800k votes, but challenging the suitability of the candidate so he can become the winner with his miserable votes.

Junior no get shame.

Nonny95:


That's what your party men have been challenging in all the tribunals.

Challenging eligibility of LP lawmakers instead of votes.

So stop being a hypocrite

ValarDoharis:
They changed the constitution in 2023 that presentation of forged certificates does not matter!

Tinubu's legacy!

A under a stinkingly corrupt Tinubu's presidency, Nigeria will never remain the same again.

seborrhic:
Of course no one expected the tribunal to declare his election void.
But if certificate not an issue why insist on school certificate as a criteria for nomination for office?

Double tragedies for the wailers. Both labour party and PDP fell yakata

Ofunaofu:
What the tribunal is saying is that if a candidate forge a certificate, present it, contest an election and wins, such a candidate cannot be disqualified

Our judiciary is now in the mud

seborrhic:

They are just ruling based on whatever comes to their mind to justify whatever decision they make.
I bet you,assuming Sanwo-Olu had lost and the APC was contesting the election based on an alleged forged certificate of Jandor,the same tribunal would have used it as the basis to disqualify the winner and everyone would have hailed them as it being the right decision to discourage certificate forgers.
All the judgements so far have been just comical.
In Kano,the sitting governor was deposed because the tribunal claimed thousands of his votes were invalid,but not a single one of the APC candidate was invalid!
In Enugu,despite NYSC,the body responsible for issuing and retaining authentic copies of certificates issued to NYSC members that successfully completed service discrediting the NYSC certificate of the governor,the tribunal still returned him!!
We are all clowns in this country,all of us!!!

Tribunal judges are ruling in favour of fake certificate holders because of Tinubu who is also a forger.
Suddenly forgery does not matter in Nigeria.

Actually forgery started from Buhari's certificate
