Congratulations to democracy in rivers state. Gov. Wike, on no account should pdp rivers state take back the thieves that defected to apc. They will stupidly, shamelessly come back and when the do they will ruin pdp finally. Thank you to those that stood firmly with wike, win or lose they stood.

Shocking. We will be keenly listening to the supremo on Friday to see what the other 6 judges who had adjudicated on the issues previously missed. Their lordships have once again validated the usefulness of the Nigerian politician's oft-quoted mantra of "win first and everything else can be taken care of later".
You are wrong dear, it was a unanimous decision of ALL the seven Judges. It is really simple if you have a little knowledge of the law. The Supreme Court has always been VERY CONSISTENT and the last hope of the common man. Many issues are involved here and this is not really the place or forum for such conversations, but I will address very briefly just two points. Proving malpractices in election Petitions means getting witnesses in each Polling Unit in respect of which there are allegations to give evidence. Obviously, in Governorship & Presidential elections where there are thousands of Polling Units, it is difficult for a Petitioner to do this. Moreover, where the allegations involve criminal conduct, the standard of proof is higher: beyond reasonable doubts & this is not easy at all. The reason is simple: elections hold in Polling Units & not in Wards, LGAs or States & so a Petitoner who brings just one or two witnesses to testify as to what happened in an entire Ward or LGA will fail. The important thing is that these principles are the same for every Petitioner, whether PDP, APC, APGA or whoever. The second reason which has presented itself for the first time in the 2015 elections is the issue of Card Readers. Card Readers are not part of our electoral laws. There is no mention of it in the ELECTORAL ACT or THE CONSTITUTION. No doubt it is a commendable innovation that will reduce rigging but INEC blundered by not getting the National Assembly to legislate it into law by amending the Electoral Act to include it as a means of accreditation. For that reason, the only means of accreditation recognized by law is manually by use of Voter's Registers. Now the decisions by the Tribunal & Court of Appeal in the River's case was largely based on Card Reader data & I can bet my last naira that the SC would have held just as they also did in the Zamfara Governorship case, that you can't annul an election due to failure to use Card Readers or inconsistency in the data. Mind you also, the SC has expressly held in a long line of cases over many years that you cannot annul the election of a person declared winner because of actions he is not responsible for; Neither Wike nor PDP conducted the accreditation of voters; INEC did. If INEC decided to use manual accreditation instead of the Card Readers in some places according to their own guideline resulting in inconsistent accreditation figures against number of votes cast, you cannot blame Wike & nullify his election. Finally, you heard it here first: the Supreme Court will also affirm the election of Dr. Okezie Ikpeazu of Abia State annulled by the CA based only on spurious allegation of over-voting based on Card Reader data instead of Voters' Register data

While Wike was busy seeking help from God through His servants..Dakuku and his supporters were busy taking selfies and calling Him Caretaker Gov...Now i wonder what those PDP supporters who decamped to APC in their numbers will do now...I'm laughing in swahili...Fear God, He is no respecter of persons...If God can turn against His own people because of the sacrifice of an Idol worshipping king then you will not rest on your laurels in any battle...You need Him till you have won and beyond..Dakuku rested with Federal might while Wike went for the God that gives command to Federal might..
