This is a disastrous decision.
Bye-bye to electoral malpractice....
Kudos to the judiciary for joining the fight against electoral malpractice. We definitely need more of you in fighting corruption.
Come 2019, politicians will be scared of rigging knowing fully well that the judiciary is ready available to kick them out.

Only on PDP abi?

Dem go still match go SUPREME court. Instead of dem 2 prepare 2 leave d Govt house and OFFICE

Why Abia state come deh different

Funny

BADNEAT:
A panel of Nigeria’s Court of Appeal in Abuja has sacked Governor Emmanuel Udom of Akwa Ibom State. In delivering its final ruling on the conduct of the governorship election in Akwa Ibom, the five-member panel upheld the petition of the candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), agreeing that the election of Governor Emmanuel Udom of the People’s Democratic Party did not conform to the electoral act.

The court, therefore annulled the election, first re-asserting the importance of card readers and afirming that the election was marred by over-voting. The court denied all releiefs sought by the candidate of the PDP and granted the reliefs sought by the governorship candidate of the APC, Umana Okon Umana, asking for the cancellation of the election. The Court ordered a rerun of the election across the state within 90 days.

Mr. Udom is expected to appeal today’s verdict to the Supreme Court for a final decision.

Judiciary arm of Govt under President Buhari has turned to nonsense, I pity the democracy

My dear I feel ur pain. Sorry you hear

We keep watching them. In 90 days we will now the next governor should the PDP fail to approach the apex court.



I would have spoken my mind but I risk being banned by the moderator who lifted the ban some hours ago. I donate that moderator as a burnt sacrifice to my God cos he's the perfect judge.

Femiwilli:
APC just dey sack Governors wey no back them.

Dem no dey sack any from the North oh!

APC naim appoint the judges abi? Talk is cheap. Kogi state nor de North abi? The courts removed some politicians there.!

If they are saying there was over voting in the election,what are we to call the under age voting and over voting in some northern states in the country?

Unfortunately, the Governor has performed Woefully in his last 7 months,
No thanks to the dwindling oil prices.

Too bad for pdp.... But the apc man looks like a thief that's ready to suck a.ibom state dry.udom is not better

expected this is the change they promised us ... I wish APC well they are intoxicated my the power freely given to them by the people hope they remember nothing last for ever
free and fare PDP will still win but after what I hv seen in kogi n bayelsa I hv my doubt

Gaskia:

because their oil & gas is smaller!

Correct! Na your papa born you.

millionaireman:
Wow!!!

PMB wants all oil-producing states -

new "chosen" governors are wanted from oil-producing states;

new governors who may not bother their people to raise eye brow when 13% derivation shall be doing going going ----

It is a grand plot.

North has been complaining that 13% makes one side of Nigeria richer than the other.

This Oil will disappoint everyone very soon

The plot to Islamise Nigeria by APC. No right thinking Nigerian will expect APC to match PDP in the SS in a clean election.

GODWIN

PDP will still win Akwa Ibom state even if the election is conducted with Umana as Returning officer.

Gaskia pos0:

because their oil & gas is smaller!

smaller to oil in Taraba? Is there oil in Taraba if that's the yardstick

Inconclusive or not, as long as it is credible, as long as the election umpire is non partisan, as long as the people are allowed to choose their people, the that's is power to the people

If care is not taking PMN will turn this country into one party state. His kangaroo electoral tribunals has continue to nulifies elections in pdp key states while none in APCV States. Is this change

With the rate of election nullification this days, very soon virtually all elections will be scheduled to have different dates

You mean that he didn't perform to expectation?

[quote author=Gaskia post=41124630]

because their oil & gas is smaller! Because in Abia State they rig with sense. Their total voting strength was around 2millon while 400 thousand voted during last election but Rivers and Akwa Ibom PDP allotted about 1.2 million votes to themselves without considering the card reader accreditation.

APC fighting desperately to get an Oil state.

The people of these States are not dafts.

Make una kontinu
