Dansuqi:I know where his pendulum always swing. This Bayelsa case made him a bit transigent though. I remember him opening a thread why Diri won't be sworn in a day before, but that is his opinion...we must not agree on everything. Will tag him next time, but kahal hasn't said a word on Bayelsa surprisingly. 1 Like |

Dansuqi:which section of the law? you should quote it here to argue your case. there is no electoral law or legal precedent that said supreme Court should order for a rerun in an election that was never in dispute because one candidate is not qualified. 1 Like |

Dansuqi:File another case then.... Pdp didn't. That's why Adah of the CoA ruled against them for. That the case should have come as a civil or criminal case. The PDP didn't ask for that. If you are not satisfied, you can also file a criminal case against him. |

Lostz:I have told him severally, The SC has no power to nullify an election or rule for a re-run unless it has originated from a lower court. |

Re: Bayelsa Election: Falana Says Supreme Court Is Wrong, Lacks Jurisdiction by Dansuqi: 10:34am On Feb 23, 2020 |
fergie001:You are missing the point.after disqualifying apc,does the law says you conduct fresh elections or swear in the runner up? |
Re: Bayelsa Election: Falana Says Supreme Court Is Wrong, Lacks Jurisdiction by Dansuqi: 10:36am On Feb 23, 2020 |
fergie001:But all cases must originate from lower court.if they dont have powers to call for a fresh elections,then they do not also have power to declare a winner.its legally safer and better to order a rerun and allow the electorate choose |
Re: Bayelsa Election: Falana Says Supreme Court Is Wrong, Lacks Jurisdiction by Nobody: 10:40am On Feb 23, 2020 |
Dansuqi:in those cases the election was in dispute; what the court did was 1. cancel an election that is faulty 2. disqualified candidate that were not properly nominated or qualified. but in the case of bayelsa, only APC candidacy was in dispute; what Court did was disqualified a candidate that is not qualified |
Re: Bayelsa Election: Falana Says Supreme Court Is Wrong, Lacks Jurisdiction by fergie001: 10:42am On Feb 23, 2020 |
Dansuqi:Following SC precedents, you swear in the runner up who participated in all stages of the election. Tanko Muhammed CJN....decided in a similar case in the Zamfara issue. |
Re: Bayelsa Election: Falana Says Supreme Court Is Wrong, Lacks Jurisdiction by Nobody: 10:43am On Feb 23, 2020 |
Dansuqi:they did not declare a winner. they only removed a candidate that was not qualified and ask inec to declare a winner (the candidate that meet necessary legal requirements? 1 Like 1 Share |

Re: Bayelsa Election: Falana Says Supreme Court Is Wrong, Lacks Jurisdiction by Dansuqi: 10:45am On Feb 23, 2020 |
fergie001: Does any law states that a 1st runner up takes over? No such law exists. |

fergie001:Is a precedent superior to an existing law? |
Re: Bayelsa Election: Falana Says Supreme Court Is Wrong, Lacks Jurisdiction by Nobody: 10:48am On Feb 23, 2020 |
[quote author=Dansuqi post=86885470][/quote] the law did not say you should cancel an election that is not in dispute. the election was not in trial, there was no court judgement stopping inec from going ahead with the election. APC did not say the election was faulty |
