Rivers: Tribunal Grants Apc’s Application To Inspect Election Materials by Mcpadosky(m): 8:24am On Jun 12, 2015 |
Justice Muazu Abdulkadir Pindiga of the Rivers State Election Petition Tribunal sitting in Abuja has granted the requests of the All Progressives Congress (APC) and its gubernatorial candidate in the April 11, 2015 governorship election in the state, Hon. Dakuku Peterside, to inspect election materials used for the election. The APC and its candidate had through their counsel, Chief Akinlolu Olujinmi (SAN), sought the leave of the court to order the inspection of electoral materials used for the governorship election in the state. In the motion ex parte dated June 3 and filed on June 8, counsel to APC and Dakuku, the lawyer prayed the court for an order allowing the inspection of the electoral materials related to the conduct of the gubernatorial election in the state. He begged the court to order the inspections of Card Readers Machines and records of electoral materials used in all the polling units in the state. In a short ruling, the tribunal granted the requests of the applicants. It however, asked the applicants to put the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and the state governor, Nyesom Wike on notice on the other request to conduct a forensic analysis on the computers, and computer servers used for the election. The APC in the state and Peterside had dragged INEC, PDP and Wike before the tribunal, challenging PDP’s victory in the April 11 election in the state. INEC declared Wike as the winner of the election. Last month, the tribunal ordered that the state governor should be served with the court processes through substituted means. Counsel to the APC had told the tribunal that he was unable to serve the governor. At the inaugural sitting of the tribunal, Mr. Rotimi Akeredolu (SAN) who represented the APC, moved a motion ex-parte praying the tribunal to grant an order for substituted service on the governor-elect. He claimed that the court bailiff had on several occasions visited the house of Wike to effect service on him but was on all the occasions turned back at the gate by agents of Wike upon discovery that he is a court bailiff. In an affidavit deposed to by the bailiff and tendered by the petitioner, the tribunal was told that neither the governor nor his agent was ready to receive any court process from anybody. He urged the tribunal to allow him paste the process on the wall of Wike’s house in the interest of justice and to avoid unnecessary delay of proceedings. In a short ruling, Justice Pindiga granted the prayer of the petitioner and ordered that substituted service be effected on Wike either by pasting the court process on his gate or at the office of the PDP secretariat in Rivers State or in Abuja. The next adjourned date will be communicated to parties in the matter. www.thisdaylive.com/articles/rivers-tribunal-grants-apc-s-application-to-inspect-election-materials/211813/ |

Futile exercise. Dakuku is a fo,ol if he thinks he would ever defeat Wike in Rivers state. The people voted massively for Wike to disgrace Judas Amaechi for betraying GEJ. 5 Likes 1 Share |

The beginning of the end of Nyesom Wike. The death of innocent ppl he killed to attain the governor's seat must not be in vain. We must put an end to politics of do or die in Nigeria. God bless Nigeria. God bless PMB. |

Xyg12: ^^^.......And more importantly, inspect the age of the electorate in them states and whether they're actually all Nigerians! These morons just don't know how to accept defeat......from time immemorial! Always when they lose it's either they go to court, form a parallel gov't, threaten to make the country ungovernable, or send their thugs out to hunt down southerners/christians to butcher like nama! 1 Like |

Trailblazer1: The problem with we PDP supporters is that we tend not to agree that the election of Nyesom was marred with irregularities and so much fraud. Its obvious that Rivers people would have voted PDP without irregularities. This is politics and anything can happen. We must encourage the governor to begin to perform and put Anaechi issues behind him. Should the election be nullified today, there will be a very great Alliance against Nyesom and PDP. Only the performances of the governor now will get him the sympathy of Rivers people vote. No more federal might, he can't control or order the police or military. Things have changed and his only powers now are his performances. The federal govt reimbursed Rivers state 105billion on May 28th which was received June 2nd by Nyesom, how come the governor is borrowing 10billion again. We PDP supporters only come to Nairaland to abuse people who give good comments on Nyesom and his unseating through the tribunal. This is obvious and only the governors performances will return him should the election be nullified. I pity those who say Dakuku is not loved by Rivers people or that Dakuku shot himself because of Amaechi or APC. Fakuku will defeat Nyesom in a free and fair election. The truth may be bitter for those PDP supporters who will come to attack or abuse me here. 1 Like |
