kikake:


INEC imposed Ihedioha upon Imo state by error. Ihedioha governed only his Owerri senatorial zone with a few roads outside Owerri in eight months.

You started to ask Orlu people: "if Udenwa and Okorocha from Orlu zone could not develop their zone, why expect Ihedioha to develop Orlu zone"?

Most foolish question.

Done.

You will return to cry again

The supreme court never mentioned anything forgery ...They man never forged any document ...,they all belong to him....nobody has come out to claim they are owner of those document. No institution has said they are forged. The supreme court used words like inconsistency ....which is different from forgery....Why suoreme court used the word inconsistency is that some of his document had other names or tittle....but since no one is claiming those document, the man is right ...he didn't break the law. After all same supreme court told us that Mahamadu and Mohammed buhari is same person cos Mohamadu is same as Mohammed in islam. This technically is further damaging the reputation of the judiciary. ...,you can't sacrifice justice at the alter of technicality. The people of balyesa voted for apc but supreme court decided to Give it to pdp there by denying the people's choice. This kind of judgement will further ignite hatred cos there is no justice
You guys don’t like saying the truth even when it’s staring you in the face.

Jot appeal, Supreme Court can reverse its judgment if she founds that judgement was delivered in error. Check the relevant section of the constitution quoted by Ihedioha legal team.

Do you think David Lyon will ever forgive his supposed deputy for such a very expensive negligence?

My question is : why didn't the court simply punish his deputy for giving INEC false information rather than involving David Lyon who is innocent?

Lawyers in the house, please I need clarification

We need to build strong institutions in Nigeria. Look at the shambles the highest court of the land has turned to all in a bid to do the bidding of the executive.

We now have PDP supreme court and APC supreme court all competing with each other to rescue their own even if it means dishing out frivolous judgments. Too bad

Methinks the Bayelsa judgment was a retaliation by the PDP supreme court for the APC supreme court judicial robbery on Imo. Otherwise there is no way the governor should have been thrown out because of his deputy judging by precedence of that kind of issue
Educate yourself.

The gubernatorial ticket is a joint one.
The case was a pre-election matter in which the court disqualified Lyon (because of his deputy's forgery) even before the election date. So this is just the Supreme Court upholding the high Court verdict.
Forging of documents is a criminal offense and you get disqualified.

David Lyon should add this to his appeal:
It has not been proven nor substantiated that Degi-Eremienyo forged his certificates. It's only a matter of nomenclature that needs to be verified from appropriate quarters, to ascertain he owns them, and then rectified accordingly, to reflect rightful ownership. APC still has a case, and they can get a review to reclaim their stolen mandate ... Their lawyers should technically read well between the lines of the appeal court, and exploit the loophole in the SC judgement, which is glaringly lacking in any certified evidence of an established crime of forgery, as to warrant disclaiming, dismissing and rubbishing the said certificates. Actually, the certificates remain valid, until proven otherwise!

Even though I want to agree with you but there are cases deputy governor has been impeached or removed and it didn't affect the governor even though they were elected on the same ticket. Anyway, I don't care and I don't have any preference, they are all thieves irrespective of party.

The constitution states that you must have a running mate before contesting. So when you have a running that does not meet the requirements, it means you don’t have a running mate. That’s why both the running mate and the flag bearer was sacked.

In the case when the deputy was impeached, both has taken oath of office already, so it’s not the same. Study your constitution very well.

Lyon case is not about ballots and INEC rather on criminality. He won the ballot but was disqualified.

Ihedioha's case is all about INEC and ballots. Arithmetics and formula of computation.

Supreme Court cannot use formula for inequalities for summation of ballots.

Have you not heard that even if Supreme Court erred, it's final. Even if the justice was drunk, it's final.

The supreme court does not hear appeal from its own decision rather a fresh application is brought for the supreme court to review its decision where there was a miscarriage of justice, public policy or opinion, judgement obtained by fraud. It is provided in section 294(5) of the constitution.
Now for the case of Bayelsa what the supreme court was supposed to order was a fresh election and not to declare the second winner as elected. That is the law by virtue of section 140(2) of the electoral act 2010 as amended.

Ihedioha did not win guber election last year in Imo state.

You, like Ihedioha, wanted to build London in Owerri as floods from uncompleted urban drainage gutter ravaged Orlu with dilapidated urban roads, no public pipe borne water.

In eight years, Okorocha govt built nearly every thing it considered devt project in Owerri, because he wanted to be seen as good presidential material through his development of Owerri.

We cried from Orlu.

On Imo state.

1) no political party in Nigeria contests election without fraudulent practices. In the case of the last Imo state governorship election, all fingers were soaked with oil. The Supreme Court judges can't delve into which of the fingers had more oil than others.

2) there was no miscarriage of justice on policy and public opinion.

Lyon has a better chance. I am sure the deputy will present fresh evidence that he did not forge those documents. The same supreme court ruled that Mohammed is same as Mohammedu in the case of Buhari. The same supreme court ruled in the case of Adamu Muazu in 1999.
Yes,with the way the high court rushed judgment,he can also claim that he was denied fair hearing and not given enough time to prove himself
