Appeal To Eze And Nairaland Igbo Election Tribunal. by Alfamann: 2:15pm On Feb 25, 2013
I hereby appeal to the nairaland igbo election tribunal to nullyfy the ongoing process of selection of a new Eze. This process is not supported by our constitution.

Having gone through, the constitution, there is no place that it states that a bye-election should be organised in case of resignation of a sitting eze. This ommission by itself, renders the ongoing process unconstitutional, null, void and unbinding to any son or daughter of igboland.

A second appeal is the situation of ezenwanyi once an eze is out of office. The constitution did not adrress this neither but the Eze and ezenwanyi were elected together and the administration is theirs together. When one resigns, the administration automatically loses legitimacy and the remaining one loses power and his/her office must also be disolved. This will ensure that the new eze will not be burdened by the remnants of the last disorganised administration.

I hereby propose that:

1- A moratorium be declared on the ongoing bye-election process.

2- A constitutional ammendment commitee be appointed to amend the constitution to adress the issue of the process to follow in cases of resignations.

3- That the issue of what happens to an admnistration of Eze and Ezenwanyi when one of them abdicates be adressed.


Another issue is that Point B has called on Ezenwanyi to organise the rest of the election process. This also is unconstitutional and her legitimacy to organise this election is seriously in doubt.

Point be should also be reminded that he does not make the rules, his role is to make sure that the rules are followed without bias. He has no authority to make binding decisions on the rest of us. The constitution does not confer him such powers.
