Ebonyi: Supreme Court Affirms Francis Nwifuru As Gov, Dismisses Pdp's Suit by chokekachy: 1:44pm On Jan 12
The Supreme Court has affirmed Governor Francis Ogbonnaya Nwifuru (APC) as duly elected and returned as Governor of Ebonyi State in the 18th March Governorship poll.[/b]

The tribunal and Appeal Court had earlier dismissed the petitions and affirmed INEC's declaration of the APC Candidate.

Justice Tijani Abubakar JSC who read the lead judgment held that the appeal filed by Chukwuma Odii of the PDP is unmeritorious.

The court noted that a petition alleging non-qualification must be brought on grounds of section 177 of the Constitution.

When a candidate is sponsored by his party, he is qualified to contest an election

Kudos to the supreme court. Let the judiciary reclaim its good name! Let the opposition breathe so that the heated polity may calm down. Better days ahead

“When a candidate is sponsored by a party “

Even when he doesn’t meet the constitutional requirements? Shameful!

LexusGs350:
I am still in dire need of a 2015 Lexus GS350 f-sport ..

Naija or foreign used is welcome

Must have a Maroon seat color and a black or red exterior. Any other alternative you may have, kindly keep it to yourself thank you
Nice choice 👌🏾
The Grand sports with 301 horse power is one of the best Lexus car out there.... people who don't know much prefer the Executive sedan.

Kindly tag me when you buy it let me feed my eyes with the beauty and tap from your blessing 🤲🏽
