SmartyPants: If it needs no debate, why not leave the matter for the judges to decide in stead of using party stalwarts and media to manipulate the decision of the court? A law professor for that matter. 1 Like 1 Share |

"....25% in βtwo β thirds of the 36 States of the Federation and the capital Territoryβ... Constitution of Nigeria. The Constitution does not say 25% of votes in two-thirds of the 36 states including the federal capital territory. It says 25% of votes in two-thirds of the 36 states AND Abuja. Even a baby will tell Osunbor that the framers of the constitution intended for the president of Nigeria who is also the administrator for Abuja to have legitimacy through at least, 25% of votes of Abuja residents, before administering Abuja. 3 Likes |

ganisucks: So what do you call Obi that scored 95% in the East? Does it mean other parties doesn't exist in the zone? Don't they have party official? That's rigging per excellent. Why couldn't Obi repeat the same feat during governorship election in the East? It would not happen bcoz it has become local and they're very quick to call others tribalistic. Who's more tribalistic than the one that returns 95%? But very unfortunately for him he couldn't pull through in the North. |

The Nigerian Constitution was supervised by Northern military dictators wearing Ak47 rifles as they dictated what should be in the constitution. Senator Osunbor was a two-time senator but unable to present a motion to change the most vexed portions of the constitution. Today, Osunbor came to misinterpret what is in the constitution. |

Vinnie2000:Thank God you are not a judge, that's why you need to pass different classes to become a judge π Sun is not a planet, it's not in the same category as a planet, but Abuja is a geographical space in Nigeria, same Nigerians, no special qualification, they had to insert 'and Abuja' because Abuja is a capital not a state, but the law didn't give votes there special status. It's normal for people to use 36 states and Abuja, because it is a capital not a state, it's the capital, but Nigerians live there, hence their votes must be counted. Every vote counts as one. Anyhow suit yourself, seems you obidients just like being right, rather than figuring out what is right. It's shameful obidients can't understand primary school grammar. 1 Like 1 Share |

As far as simple English and common sense are concerned, Prof. Osunbor made no single sense rather, he ended up complicating himself. If he had understood the simple use of English "and" in a sentence, he would have no option but to accept that winning Abuja is a measure pre-requisite for one to be duly and legally declared winner of any presidential election in the country. No wonder he was busy deceiving himself in 2007 when he rigged election and was turning the Constitution up side down, before the supreme Court booted him out of the seat of Edo govt house. |
