Alwaysachick: Proof what beyond reasonable doubt? Is Supreme Court a Trial Court? |

Tareq1105: This proves u wrong: Olorunfemi v Asho This is yet another case in which the Supreme Court took the bold position to set aside its earlier decision. The Supreme Court set aside its judgment delivered in January 8, 1999 on the ground that, it failed to consider the respondents’ cross–appeal before allowing the appellant’s appeal. Johnson v Lawanson Coker J.S.C. delivering the court’s judgment held that “when the court is faced with the alternative of perpetuating what it is satisfied is an erroneous decision which was reached per incuriam and will, if followed, inflict hardship and injustice upon the generations in the future or of causing temporary disturbances of rights acquired under such a decision, I do not think we shall hesitate to declare the law as we find it.” The court then ordered that the appeal be re-heard de novo by another panel of Justices of the Supreme Court.

ultimateprof: But alas this is not about Ihedioha. I am neither from SE nor a supporter of Ihedioha. This is about YOU and every other Nigerian. This embarrassment of this judgment diminishes all of us. How can u tell any Nigerian that lying and cheating does not pay when they can see for themselves that the highest court in the land rewards blatant cheating and forgery?? Different if Uzodinma were already the governor and they did it not want to overheat things. NO, they overruled all lower courts AND INEC itself in order to replace an already 8-month governor with a 4th place finisher, all based on clearly fraudulent documents! 2 Likes 1 Share |

Ihedioha should go and relax please. Effort in futility. It will be easier for Arsenal to win the English Premier League, than for Ihedioha to get reinstated. Waste of time, energy, resource and funds. 1 Like |

Racoon: Has the Supreme Court of Nigeria ever upturned its judgement on election petition? So how would the former Imo governor think he is going to be treated differently to destroy the Supreme Court of Nigeria? This is common election matter, not a capital punishment matter. |

[s][/s] CanadaOrBust: You just don't understand, or don't want to understand the issues at stake here. This is an election case. Perhaps the PDP candidate must have rigged election more than the APC candidate, but the time to argue those things out was at the lower courts. The Supreme Court does not add or subtract votes to or from any candidate once the vote counts arrive live before the Supreme Court judges. Above all, no country would have its Supreme Court judges humiliated by desperate politicians. This is not a do-or-die affair, not judgement on capital punishment. So it's hard to see a country's Supreme Court sitting on appeal over it's judgement that is not on capital punishment.. |

Nadio2019: U r the one who doesn’t understand, or doesn’t want to understand. The SC was clearly wrong or compromised or both. Notice how they carefully did not mention numbers in their judgement, in a case that’s all about numbers! For same reason they dared not mention meeting the constitutionally mandated geographical spread - because they know the numbers make no sense - the man gave himself more votes than there are voters! Same reason INEC dared not give the final tally of votes as they did in Bayelsa and all others - they’d be laughed at! As for the rest, there is no law that says they shouldn’t see the clearly fraudulent nature of the documents right in front of them. As for reversal, in Johnson v Lawanson they reversed yet it was only about deed of assignment. In Olorunfemi v Asho they also reversed yet it was only a land case. This is governorship of a whole state! |

CanadaOrBust: What's sauce for the goose is sauce for the gander? People can't reject you at the poll then you run to court to have the winner disqualified so victory can be given to u. Pdp did not met the spread in both Zamfara and Imo. But the SC gave them sa leeway. If the SC dares to review their Imo verdict (which is highly unlikely) it'll be a precedent for countless frivolous review appeals. I'm sure they don't want that |

ntyce: Though it dismissed the application, the apex court refused to award cost against the Applicants. However, a member of the apex court panel, Justice Centus Chima Nweze, disagreed with the lead verdict and gave a dissenting opinion that allowed Ihedioha’s application. Nweze said he was satisfied that the judgement that declared Uzodinma winner was entered in error. He held that the apex court has a duty to in the interest of justice, set-aside its decision that was given in error. |

CanadaOrBust: Lol, earlier this morning when you began looking for reasons to console yourself ahead of this judgement, I was convinced within me that you know the truth but was only looking for reasons to be biased and you found alot of them. Ihedioha and PDP were just looking for a rerun not that they won or even got the spread in the first place. Even the mistake called declaration by INEC, he (Ihedioha) didn't get the required spread but it was right to you. Bro, just be objective for once. |
Re: Why Imo Case Is Different From Bayelsa, Ihedioha To Supreme Court by bkool7(m): 7:24pm On Mar 03, 2020 |
CanadaOrBust:You're incorrigible. Not because you're not smart, but because you're partisan. If the reverse had been the case, would you be siting the position of one judge amongst others? The SC can't approbation and reprobate . |
Re: Why Imo Case Is Different From Bayelsa, Ihedioha To Supreme Court by CanadaOrBust: 7:56pm On Mar 03, 2020 |
bkool7: You're the one that’s incorrigible. You’ve just been proved wrong and u r still saying the same thing: Justice Nweze JSC wrote: “This Court has the power to over rule itself which it has done in the past for the sake of Justice”. The SC tacitly admitted they were in error by not levying any fines per Bayelsa. 60m is not chump change |
Re: Why Imo Case Is Different From Bayelsa, Ihedioha To Supreme Court by CanadaOrBust: 8:18pm On Mar 03, 2020 |
mrphysics:(Ihedioha did get the geographical spread with the 388 units discounted) You're the one that’s been proved totally wrong. Justice Nweze JSC wrote: “This Court has the power to over rule itself which it has done in the past for the sake of Justice”. Which u people said was impossible. Also the SC tacitly admitted they were in error by not levying any fines per Bayelsa. 60m is not chump change. In fact they actually asked Akanbi: “(We know we are wrong but) what do u want us to do(at this point)?” (parentheses mine) |
