Vatod:
you forget about Kogi State?

Kogi scenario isn't the same. The election was inconclusive as when the Gov died. Assuming , the final result was announced before the Gov died now, Faleke ,the deputy then would have become the governor.

Afamed:

Perhaps if he had won the election, his Deputy would have taken over. That's what the Constitution says.

APC aspirant and not the candidate..take note

ceejee:


No, the Constitution never said so. the deputy can only take over if his death happens after swearing in. in this case, the speaker of the state house of Assembly will take over on acting capacity until a new election is conducted.

That's a great fellow

Something that happened not quite long in Kogi when Abubakar won and died. The issue became a party affair. Party is the one fielding Candidates and they pick yahaha who came 2nd in primary election. is that what you people are debating on.
One said deputy will take over
the other said speaker will take over till another election....smh
