U know the answer u hypocrite - HELL NO!!! As I’ve told you, the best thing you can really do for Hope is to help impress upon him that if he had any self-respect he should resign. How can a person walk around not only knowing himself that he is a FRAUD, but knowing that everybody knows he is a FRAUD! 20 Likes 2 Shares |

I’m not into politics at all, but here is what someone into Imo politics wrote (and u just know he is telling the truth): Imo people did not vote for Hope. Hope didn't even campaign in Imo because of the APC crises between him and Rochas who was fronting his in-law, Uche Nwosu. On the day of the election, Hope and some APC loyalists were lodged in a Hotel in Owerri writing results after INEC announced result. They brought the results and were compelling returning officer to announce but he refused that it was fake that even party reps have raised the alarm. 18 Likes 1 Share |

BTW here is what YOU wrote - it dovetails nicely with what the guy I quoted was saying: “It seems you didnt follow the imo elections well,i did.okorocha never supported hope,he supported his inlaw nwosu who contested under a.a.hope was like an orphan during the polls.” 7 Likes 1 Share |

Supreme court will throw out the case. However, to answer your question, Hope will win. These are the reasons. 1. Rochas still controls orlu zone. Rochas is with hope. Orlu zone definitely will want their own as governor. Orlu zone is in the bag for hope. 2. Ararume controls okigwe zone. Araarume is with hope. Most of okigwe will be in the bag for hope 3. Issue is owerri zone. Mbaise will be checkmated properly. No more over voting and writing of votes there. Rochas and nwosu still have followership. Owerri will be split. Hope has also shown good leadership these few days. Ihedioha's minions were laughing that hope will not pay salaries. He not only paid but paid pensioners. He also approved 30k minimum wage. Constructions which ihedioha started, he has continued with them. 4. Hope is a money bag and knows how to dole money. Ihedioha is stingy. People move with money flow. Ihedioha has the money but won't bring it out. 5. Hope is yet to appoint commissioners. He will get the strong men from owerri zone compensated. He will make an in road in that zone. 6. He has federal might behind him. 1 Like |

chukel: Anyone who has read the judgment of the Supreme Court in Obioha v. Ibero (1994) NWLR 1 (Pt.322) 503 will know Ihedioha is wasting his time. In the lead judgment delivered by Justice Belgore he said and I quote... Now, in respect of this application, the applicant is certainly not asking us to correct minor errors. He seeks to upturn the judgment already given. The Constitution of the Federal republic of Nigeria 1979 says of the judgment of Supreme Court. Section 215: "Without prejudice to the powers of the President or the Governor of a state with respect to prerogative of mercy, no appeal shall lie to any other body or person from any determination of the Supreme Court." The phrase" any other body or person" includes the Supreme Court itself. This application is purportedly brought under Order 8 rule 16 Supreme Court Rules 1985 and the inherent powers of this Court especially section 6 (6)(a) of the Constitution 1979. Section 6 of the Constitution (supra) relates to judicial powers of the Federation and subsection 6(a) is clear as to its intendment when it states: "(6) The judicial powers vested in accordance with the foregoing provisions of this section (a) shall extend, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this constitution to all inherent powers and sanctions of a Court of law". The clear provisions of this subsection cannot be ignored. Inherent powers of the Court should not be extended beyond what the statutes, the Constitution and rules of Court provide. There is nothing inherent in the powers of a Court which is not covered by a law. To assume jurisdiction where none exists is not inherent power simply because a Court feels it would be just so to do. Much emphasis is placed by Balonwu, S.A.N. on the provisions of Order 8 rule 16 Supreme Court Rules which states: Order 8 rule 16: "The Court shall not review any judgment once given and delivered by it save to correct any clerical mistake or some error arising from any accidental slip or omission, or to vary the judgment or intention. A judgment or order so as to give effect to its meaning or intention. A judgment or order shall not be varied when it correctly represents what the Court decided nor shall the operative and substantive part of it be varied and a different form substituted." What this Court is being asked to do is to review its judgment, not to correct clerical errors or errors from accidental slip or omission but to overturn the judgment already given. This Court has consistently refused to be dragged into this pitfall. The purpose of this application is clear, it is an appeal cloaked in the guise of a motion. From the wordings of the motion and the grounds for bringing it, it is manifestly clear that the validity of the judgment of this Court as given on 26th February, 1993 is being challenged. Unlike the case of Prince Yahaya Adigun and 2 Ors v. The Attorney-General of Oyo State 2 NWLR (Pt.56) 197 where the validity of Order 8 rule 16 (supra) was being questioned by the applicant in that matter, the present applicant appears to seek strength in the Rule. Once the Supreme Court has entered judgment in a case, that decision is final and will remain so for ever. The law may in future be amended to affect future issues on the same subject, but for the case decided, that is the end of the matter. The irony of this application is that the protagonist of this application on four previous occasions, Chief Williams, S.A.N. is now on the receiving end. But this Court has on each occasion stood firmly that it lacked jurisdiction. [See Minister of Lagos Affairs. Mines and Power & Anor v. Chief Akin-Olugbade & Ors (1947) 11 S.C. 11; Akin-Olugbade & Ors v. Onigbongbo Community & Ors (1974) 6 S.C. 1. The purport of Order 8 rule 16 is to carry out what is termed "slip rule" i.e. to correct clerical errors or omissions or gaps to give meaning to the judgment or decision of the Court and not to vary it. [See Ashiyanbi & Ors v. Adeniji (1967) 1 All NLR 861. Once an order has been given, be it judgment or ruling, the Supreme Court cannot thereafter change that decision. [Chukwuka v. Ezulike (1986) 5 NWLR (Pt.45) 892. It is to be emphatically restated that this motion with a double edged sword of alleged powers under the Constitution [S.6 (6)(a) and under the Rules (Order 8 rule 16) should once and for all be nailed in its coffin. The law does not permit this Court a double say in the same manner. It either allows or dismisses an appeal, not the two on the same issue. The inherent powers under S.6(6) of the Constitution cannot be invoked to reverse a decision already given by this Court Iro Egbu & Ors v. Chief Ogburu Urum & Anor (1981) 4 S.C. 1; Sodeinde Brothers (Nig) Ltd v. African Continental Bank Ltd (1982) 6 S.C. 137; Yonwuren v. Modern Signs (Nig) Ltd (1985) 2 S.C.; John Enemoh & Anor v. Chief Daniel Onolepite & Ors (1985) 2 S.C. and Nwaora v. Nwakonohi (1985) 2 S.C. (all consolidated at P. 86) In conclusion, this application is completely misconceived and appears to me no more than a voyage of discovery on a matter that has been several times tried and tested in this Court without success. This Court is indirectly being called upon to set aside its decision. There is no jurisdiction to do so. The application is dismissed with N100.00 costs to the respondent. http://www.lawpavilionpersonal.com/newfulllawreport.jsp?suite=olabisi@9thfloor&pk=SC.101/1993&apk=10756 1 Like |
