Why would the SC had to uphold the rerun of the house of assembly elections which took place the same day with the gubernatorial. I repeat SC miss it big time. What explains the SC blatantly dismissed INEC guildlines that has a constitutional backing?. Wike, Odili... You will both bite the dust. Wailers sef..... The truth has spoken! 1 Like 1 Share |

Wike had previously challenged the constitution of the tribunal in the appeal and supreme Court and the both courts held that the tribunal was lawfully constituted. In dismissing Wike's appeal, the supreme Court said that Rivers state was a theatre of war, thus the tribunal even with their security men could not conduct sittings in River state. In the tribunal Wike, INEC and Dakuku were all giving opportunities to present their witnesses which they did. So how could supreme Court says that Wike was not giving fair hearing because I am aware that Wike closed his case even when he still had time to call in more witnesses at the tribunal. for me, I think supreme Court has legalised electoral violence. May God save Nigeria from politicians, police and the judiciary. 1 Like 1 Share |

doctokwus:Smh...dere are procedures for proving that an election was marred by violence.....Unfortunately the legal team from APC were unable to present any tangible proof rather they relied on hearsay and sentiments....to make matters worse they presented 5(or more) witnesses and an inec officer that was never there...pls tell me..how can 5 witnesses give an account of over 300 polling units in rivers state....? You are accusing the SC of being bias yet you neglected the fact that the same judges upheld the elections of most of the APC governors particularly the election of ogun state governor Ibikunle Amosun that same night....Pls let me ask u...are you implying that amosun,one of the saintly governors,bribed the SC judges too? So if there is any one to blame in all this episode,go and blame APC legal team who did a terrible and incompetent job dat day....Stop blaming SC cos they don't pass judgement based on hearsay or emotional outcry but concrete facts that are enshrined in our laws...enough is enough 4 Likes |

Re: Why Supreme Court Declared Wike Winner by LegalAnalyst(m): 3:22pm On Feb 12, 2016 |
There is a plethora of case law on this issues, so much so that the issue is very well settled in law and should no longer give rise to any other position that the concept of fair hearing is an integral part of justice administration and derives from the principles of natural justice and fairness. The rule of fair hearing requires that in all disputes between two more parties, judgement should not be based on one-sided testimony. And in the opinion of Superem Court in the instance case is that Wike was not given fair hearing, hence the need to resolve the issue in his favour. The SC only gave legal reason which is apt in law. The legal reason is very apt and appropriate in law. If you are not still satified by now, you need to wait until the case is reported for you to have the full assessment of the fact that will enable you to know If Wike was given fair hearing. *NaijaLegalAnalyst* |

The right to fair hearing is sacrosanct and in fact the bedrock of any legal exercise along with requisite jurisdiction. For those disrespectfully castigating the Supreme Court and its Justices, can you cast your mind back as to the major reason why the former Governor of Adamawa has just had his impeachment upturned by the same court and all his benefits reinstated? It is also because he was not granted fair hearing! It is also the law that the onus of proof lies on the petitioner/complainant. The Court has ruled that the APC did not sufficiently discharge this burden...this is over and final. There's a lot more to deal with than all these vituperation and insults I see here. Anyone that thinks it is a reason to misinterpret the reasoning of the courts and perpetuate electoral malpractises will also have the same court throw them out of any fraudulently occupied offices provided the petitioner is able to diligently prove its case. 1 Like |

INEC was issued a notice to produce voters register& other materials which they bluntly refused to produce. How does the SC expect Dakuku to enforce same. It is law that if exhibits upon a court notice to produce are not produced, then judgement can be entered against such defiance. This is so unjust. They just limited the entire case to card reader. 2 Likes |

igala1:Oga it was dakuku legal that based its brief on the card reader and the inec produced electoral materials both to dakuku and wike. The lower court delivered a ruling against wikes' rights which the supreme court has corrected! The SC in its ruling has also corrected other legal issues that pertains to interpretation and use of the electoral act in litigation as distinct from the inec electoral guideline. |

@BekeeBuAgbara, If you're still asking whether the SC upheld the rerun of both the state & federal houses of assembly elections, it's obvious the bandwagon over the governorship election has overtaken the attention of the other area of interests. I felt reluctant to reply you cos i thought you were just being rhetorical. SC has jurisprudence over all election matters, so you know. The truth has spoken! 1 Like |
