Dansuqi:


The order is dead on arrival.a state high court does not have such jurisdiction

SecretSpy666:

Stopping talking nonsense and make people to laugh at you. Both State High Court and Federal High Court are courts of coordinate jurisdiction and equal in judicial power. The only difference is that FHC order can be gotten from anywhere but SHC can be gotten from the state where the matter is happening.

Is like saying that Federal University and State Universities are not awarding the same degrees. Wake up man. In Obaseki we stand!!!

Agboriotejoye:

I didn't say so. I only asked why there can't be a high court in Benin

Indispensable85:




I hear you. Supreme court of nairaland.

Dansuqi:


Ok.I told you pdp fans are even more ignorant and confused than APC fans.he is an example

Akanbiedu:


INEC is a state body, I see.

Dansuqi:


No,it is not.federal high court have jurisdiction on both state and federal matters and inec,national party chapters are under their jurisdiction

Indispensable85:
It will be ignored by INEC. There's already an order From ph.

We are talking of Obaseki not participating in the PDP primary and not INEC. I don't think inec is a party to the suit. Meanwhile, I am not a lawyer, I am only quoting out of a layman's understanding.

Seanfer1:


Though the high court has same jurisdiction with the federal high court. I think the order should have come from the federal high court because the NWC of the PDP conducting the primary is not in Edo but Abuja.

The last( counter order) would be upheld

Open your mind to learn new things bro

Throwback:
This is not a case of who will have the last laugh, rather it is who will have the last court judgement.

correctyourself:


If so, why did you respond to my contribution on this matter?

An illiterate that is willing to learn is far more valuable than the literate who has refused to apply his literacy.

vicshub:
you are the one that is the most confused. There is an high court at ekpoma that caters for matters arising from ekpoma/irruekpen/uromi/irrua axis, there are other high courts at okada, auchi, etc.. Jugde inneh is the presiding judge at the ekpoma Court.. Check the edo state judiciary portal for more info including pictures..

NICENEDU29:
For your information, the Order of interim Injunction from Federal High Court, Port Harcourt and the one from Edo State High Court are conflicting Orders given by Courts of coordinate or equal jurisdiction and both are based on the same subject matter. So, the position of the law in that circumstance is that where there are two conflicting decisions, judgments or orders given by two different courts of coordinate or equal jurisdiction, the latter in time prevails over the former, because it is taken that the latter has overruled the former and the former becomes inoperative in the light of the latter. Therefore, the Order made by Edo State High Court on 23rd June, 2020 takes priority over the one made by the Federal High Court, Port Harcourt on 22nd June, 2020, since the Edo State High Court Order was made later and both are courts of equal jurisdiction.

INEC usually obeys the first one. Watch out.

fergie001:

No, the Primaries is holding in Benin.
The persons who will conduct the elections is the SWC of PDP in Edo.

So getting it in Benin is alright. It has territorial jurisdiction.

The question is:
The case is in another Court of concurrent jurisdiction. Why go get an exparte of same in that Court?

It can never stop or invalidate what the PH Court will do!

Dansuqi:


Yes,a Benin high court order will have suffice..but the primaries is conducted by the nwc with the swc helping.I wanted to ask you about the possibility of sending someone overseas ego

fergie001:

INEC doesnt have any say in the internal primaries of a political party.

Infact, their presence there is to monitor and technically, is for formality sake. They cannot bar anyone, they cannot disqualify anyone.

They will leave it for the Courts to decide.

Indispensable85:


You missed it. They're obligated to obey court orders not necessarily interfering in party primaries. However, I also know that if INEC doesn't monitor your primaries and confirm it held you may not field candidates. Zamfara for instance.

fergie001:

Don't really know about that o...unless I can make some calls at night.

PS: Ihama has withdrawn the case.
