Barca my bro I hail you sir.

mrphysics:


This is integrity brother. good work but steer clear from PMB. Help settle PDP case, everything nah double double

Progressive01:
Stop foaming in the mouth and spitting all over the place. This is about Abia state governor and not one Red Albino Monkey being ravaged in Kuje.

Ikpeazu should respect himself and vacate the office because before the law right now he's an imposter. Uche is the governor recognised by the constitution and anyone who conducts government business with Ikpeazu does so at the own risk.

Ikpeazu should go pursue his case in court but while he does so, government activities can't be suspended. The position isn't an inheritance.

franchizy:


Thank you my brother. You have said it all. Ikpeazu's lawyers were not sharp or smart enough.

In the eyes of the law, the order from the Abia state High court is a kangaro otder and cant over ride that of the Federal High court Abuja.

On a second thought, Ikpeazu lawyers would have approached the Federal High court Owerri, Imo state or FHC Port Harcourt to secure shsrply a stay of execution.

For the fact that his Appeal does not contain a stay of execution, i join you to say that Ikpeazu is hanging on a thin rope.

I bet you that by monday inspite of the public holiday he declared in the state, he will be forced to vacate office.

Thete are much plans to withdraw all his security details then file a suit of forgery against him. His case will go for accelerated hearing and he will be convicted thereby rendering his Appeal useless.

donstevoz:

That's where you are getting it wrong. A notice of appeal does not amount to stay of execution. And INEC did say that they were only served with a notice of appeal and not stay of execution. Also, whatever injunction Ikpeazu got from the state high court is not binding on the judgement of the federal high court because they are correspondent. So what you can do is to urge Ikpeazu to prove INEC wrong and display a copy of the stay of execution from an appeal court (not a high court) that he served INEC, otherwise he's an arsenal fan, I mean a goner.

AtlanticBreeze:

Falana is a zombie lawyer, Falana may be one of the APC zombies on nairaland... I don't understand why agbakoba is trying to rubbish his name with this pedestrain opinion... I had better gone with the opinion of an authority which is the NBA president

bejeiodus:
Yes, I did. He made it unambiguously clear who the governor is.

cktheluckyman:


there is a valid court order from the Abia state high court stopping Uche Ogah's swearing in.Besides the constitution is very clear that once the notice of appeal is filed,the incumbent will retain his seat until his appeal is exhausted

Oksman:

Can't you put down your comment without abusing him? you should read carefully digest and understand what they are saying before descending on them, you are not a SAN as they are, although the nigeran systm is a puzzle lets kéep our fingers crossed and watch the unfolding drama that is sure to have unquantifiable consequences on our nascent democracy.

TonyeBarcanista:

My brother, even those won't help him. he should have done so in the same court or Appeal court. Foolish lawyers

AtlanticBreeze:

And read but couldn't understand, that of the NBA president made more sense to me..

NgeneUkwenu:


Barca, have you seen? The lawyers are just repeating all I said yesterday...This is law and not sentiments..

AtlanticBreeze:

you are twisting the whole issue.. INEC first said they didn't receive anything, when the governor provided proof they turned to say it was notice of appeal and not stay of execution, well according to the NBA president even a notice of appeal should maintain the status quo.. Inec has become partisan... uche ogah can never become a legitimate governor. quote me anywhere

kahal29:


You detest Agbakoba because he told you the truth. Here him again :

“A Notice of Appeal is clearly not a Stay and INEC has broken no Law in issuing Certificate of Return to Ogah.

franchizy:


My brother some lawyers are hrartless because they want to eat money.

They had enough time to file a stay of execution sincean Appeal hasbeen filed but they ignorantly never did so rather they adviced the governor to declare a public holiday to buy unnecessary time.

I wont be suprised to hear tomorrow that Uche Ogar has been sworn in. if i were Ikpeazu i would have honourablly vacated the office and seek for peace from ogar to prevent him from arresting and prosecuting him for forgery.

A case of forgery has been established now against Ikpeazu and the man is in a hot soup except he sues for peace.

May God help his supporters to teason wisely.

aresa:



Staying in office by any means necessary means immunity from prosecution. These crooks know exactly what they are doing.

TonyeBarcanista:
The law must take its course. Though Ikpeazu should have approached the same court for a stay of execution pending the outcome of his appeal at the Appellate Court.

I don't think an Abia High Court can override the order of FHC Abuja.

I have to admit that Ikpeazu is on a very thin rope

mapet:


Admit that Ikpeazu was naive and have himself to blame. He goofed on many fronts aside from his fake tax certificate, he approached a relatively lower court, he didn't file both the appeal and the stay of execution at the same time? He's hoping sentiments will hold sway when there are clear dicrates. . .

kcnwaigbo:

Nonsense both you and the useless APC lawyer Falana can go to hell.There is a notice of appeal and a valid court order keeping Ikpeazu in office

The Abia state CJ is also law abiding and will not disobey a valid court order.

Montaque:

Both courts are of co-ordnate jurisdiction. There is nothing superor there. Don't let the word federal in fhc decieve u. They both have jurisdiction on the matter.
