Oga lawyer, anything done under duress can be declared as null and void if there is evidence. So you want to tell me that if you kidnap an INEC official and force him to read fake results under gun point that it is admissible under the law? Have you not heard of armed robbers forcing forcing bank managers to open a bank safe that has number locks? What i expect INEC to do is to disqualify Rochas immediately for having broken electoral rules and organise a new election. Then by May 29th when his immunity ends Rochas should be arrested and charged for kidnap and other related offences. Anything short of that will be anarchy in Imo State. 1 Like |

That was what played out in Rivers by Wike. I was a Presiding Officer. He lost at the Tribunal and Appeal Court and mysteriously Won at the Supreme Court. I want to believed he bought his way via Mary Odili doubt the hatchet Job for PDP at the Supreme. gidgiddy: 1 Like |

gidgiddy: that is a dangerous implication and if the tribunal or court of competent jurisdiction award the case to okorocha, then the aim of all criminal element politicians is to kidnap a collation officer, point a gun on his or her family and force him to announce the result under duress. this is a very dangerous precedent that want to come to play. An amendment of the electoral act is the best way to fight this menace. 3 Likes |

I think he is right on this, however this might lead to a situation whereby RO are kidnapped by aspirants just to declare a predetermined result which might inturn create anarchy. Another angle is the doctrine of necessity that is backed by law, could INEC hide under it to reverse itself (declared result) when significant infringement is noticed? Only the court can decide that? In my opinion, I think INEC decision is cool, politicians are so crazy in manipulating loopholes within the system. I remember that it was ballots box snatching that led to Jega introducing the inconclusive election rule, today, we no longer have widespread ballot box snatching. 1 Like 1 Share |

You got him wrong. His argument was that if truly Okorocha hoodwinked returning officer to declare him a winner, then it's for the court of competent jurisdiction to decide not INEC. Once election is announced, INEC by constitutional provisions cannot go back to reverse itself, that's the functions of the court. gidgiddy: 2 Likes |

Much as any individual or group of persons may feel uncomfortable with Okorocha been issued his valid certificate of return as an elected senator of the Federal republic, I think INEC has goofed in trying to determine a matter that is purely for the law to decide. The rational thing for INEC is to charge the matter to court on the strength of the allegations of announcement under duress by their staff and let Okorocha defend himself. The court can pronounce a complete seizure or rerun 2 Likes |

[quote author=FrankRoosevelt post=76816230]Everybody in Nigeria was under various levels of duress, so what that man said is inconsequential. INEC should stop wasting Okorocha's time and issue him his C of R. Afterall, whether he won the election is not in contest, rather it is the situation of the announcer of the result. We heard the result under duress so INEC should issue the certificate under duress so the man can join NASS under duress[/quote Epic |

I support this man's position on this matter. INEC should give him his certificate of return, then head to court. INEC reserves the right to revoke it if it goes in their favor. There were others who did worse things to win. Some killed unarmed innocent citizens. They should release his certificate to him. 1 Like |

gidgiddy:Absolutely! and if APC do not want Okorocha in their party ( for some reason) which is what i suspect is the case, They are Allowed to expel him, even if he won truely. He can not force himself on APC, Even if the courts rules in his favour. |

sonature1: U now attribute Iberiberism - foolishness - to Rochas Okorocha. No be u de talk for years that Okorocha's style of build only state capital while other parts of the state stagnate, is a choice of Okorocha as governor which must be left for him? Okorocha wants to represent his Imo West constituency which he maliciously underdeveloped, destroyed govt projects in the zone because of his private business interests and ancient and modern grudges against some people in the zone. Who voted him senator? Look at how Okorocha abandoned the road to the university teaching hospital in Orlu, the only important govt establishment in the zone.

kikake: To be clear, in this context, I mean that the phrase he coined. That said, the problem I have with you and the rest of you wailing Orlu folks is that u are parochial in your criticism....it's always about Orlu. My part of Imo State has been neglected too, but I don't come online every now and then to rant. |
