I wonder though whether Falana averted his mind to the fact that after the conclusion of a case there is a right of appeal which must be exercised within a certain timeframe if parties wish to and after which the principle of effluxion of time comes into play. A pre-election matter doesn't suddenly become a post-election matter just because an election has taken place when the appellant party still has a cause of action and has not run out of time to file an appeal. The law does not say that the court of appeal is the court of final judgement rather it is the Supreme court on pre-election issues. The mere conduct of an election does not override or extinguish the right of appeal of any party. 5 Likes 3 Shares |

Iamgrey5: The Court of Appeal is not the final arbiter on pre-election issues, the supreme court is. The right of appeal had not been exhausted and PDP rightly made use of the available right. Was Zamfara not a pre-election issue? Did Court of Appeal not give judgement enabling APC in Zamfara to contest? Did the Supreme court not overturn that decision hence the PDP leadership in Zamfara today? Did Falana raise this issue? The fact that an election had been conducted did not negate an ongoing suit which the parties had a right to appeal up to the Supreme court! 2 Likes 1 Share |

Iamgrey5: A running mate can no longer be changed after elections he contested is won. Even at the point the High Court made the pronouncement on the APCdeputy governorship candidate, the window of nomination had been closed by INEC and it is only in the event of death that they are permitted by the Electoral Act to make any other substitutions. 1 Like 1 Share |
