The Real Facts Of Taraba's Judgment by OAM(m): 5:10pm On Nov 07, 2015
Taraba judgment has led uninformed fellows to cite S.140 (2) of the Electoral Act and declared that the Tribunal was very very wrong. A Lawyer who is aware of the decision in Dagana v Usman & Donatus v Wambai will be cautious and not join the band to say Tribunal was wrong.

Here are what you should ponder on!!!

Was evidence led to that allegation? If it was, did the Tribunal find it credible?

Those precedence in those cases cited above lays credence to the decision of the Taraba Tribunal in declaring Aisha as Governor. However, the decision runs contrary to S.140(2) of Electoral Act. This is why I think PDP has a valid reason to appeal and it will be an interesting one

NOTE: Even if the Tribunal did not comply S.140(2) in declaring Aisha as Governor, there are case law to back them. It is a dicey one and for the sake of the development of our laws, I urge the PDP to appeal the decision of the Taraba State Tribunal. Apparently, we will definitely need the CA and the SC to decide the Taraba case conclusively. Will they uphold the Electoral Act or Case Law?

In conclusion, it is not over. The case can go either way at the Court of Appeal or the Supreme Court. I can't wait to see the end.
