Wen a politicians steals billions he wuld only b asked 2 pay half a million but if a young working boi is bin caught apart of outright seizure he culd b placed in life imprisonment.
The blame is not wholly on the judiciary but the existing laws,tell your law-makers to make non-vague,non-ambiguous laws on corruption then let's watch the judge that will not apply it when necessary.But the lawmakers will not do so willingly because they are beneficiaries of the bad system.

The Acting Governor will still lose the appeal, his ascension to the throne was a nullity ab initio! I guess he wants to buy time and enjoy/embezzle as much as he can before he is finally booted out probably by the Supreme Court because I'm sure he'll still go to Supreme court in case he fails at the Appeal Court.

Also, I perceive a constitutional problem here, before finally dispensing with this case, what happens to the timeline given in the constitution within which an election must be held?

Nice thinking. And its the truth, its just gonna create a serious constitutional problem. I hope the Judiciary is watching closely and acts quickly to resolve this.

Re: Adamawa Acting Governor Instructs Lawyers To Appeal Court Judgement Sacking Him by Nobody: 3:27pm On Oct 08, 2014
From my little knowledge of the constitution, a deputy governor can only hand over his resignation to a sitting Governor. Ngilari, against the provision of the constitution, handed his resignation to the speaker of house of assembly in yola shortly before Nyako was impeached. Clearly he was outsmarted by Fintiri at the time. Finitiri got power through the back door. The constitution supersedes any law. He is only wasting his time and resources appealing.

Appeal it o. After your first political abragadabra, you succeeded which made you relax and focus on re-election forgetting that ''you do not defeat your enemy and leave him half dead because, when he survives, he comes back wiser, stronger and more dangerous''. Fintiri you shouldn't have relaxed, now the sweet honey of power will be taken away from you now that you've tasted it and want more.

[quote author=lekanolas post=26966811]Adamawa State Acting Governor Umar Fintiri on Wednesday said he has instructed his lawyers to appeal against Federal High Court judgment removing him from office.

An Abuja High Court had earlier on Wednesday asked Fintiri to vacate office as acting governor of the state.

The court noted that his swearing-in as acting governor was illegal and unconstitutional.

The court presided over by Justice Ademola Adeniyi also ordered that the former deputy governor of Adamawa state, Bala Ngilari, be sworn in as the substantive gove

I expected it. Unfortunately for Ngilari it was Fintiri that accepted his resignation letter. Ngilari is a betrayer.
He shall soon meet his water loo.
Agenda Agenda Agenda. It will definitely fail. Infact it has failed already.

An exercise in futility. Am not a lawyer, but I knew PDP will lose this case. PDP taking over Adamawa through the back door. Kudos to the Judiciary once again.

Ever had that awkard moment when you slaughter a chicken and thinking it is dead, you relaxed your hold. Only to see your headless chicken on the run huh?
That's what Fintiri is facing now
Adamawa we hail thee.

When it comes to Political Strategy just leave it to PDP. They have their moles in all political parties formed in Nigeria.

Bro.even if they enact such laws,your politicians will always find a way to circumvent the law,our problem is that we have individuals who are bigger that our institutions..like the judiciary..the reason Obama was quoted as saying that "Africa needs strong institutions and not strong men" cool

As expected. But I am really confused about this one. And by the way, where does Atiku fall in this story? Is he happy or sad? Our politicians are ridiculing our judiciary. I think the judiciary should be 100percent autonomous. But most of our judges are also politicians. May God help us. All the money they will spend in this fight will still be from the state coffers which is from oil.

Please I am yet to get your point here. From the word go, Finitri should not have been Governor since Nyarko was not yet impeached before he read his letter.
