The supreme court judgement in the case involving Uche Nwosu, Hope Uzodinma and APC can't be used as a case study here. APC in IMO held two separate primaries that produced two candidates at the same time in the person of Uche Nwosu and Hope Uzodinma. But the APC NWC was against the faction that produced Nwosu, so he decamped to AA party. Now, while he was in a new party, he still went to court to context the outcome of the APC primaries that produced Hope Uzodinma as the APC gubernatorial candidate. So in the judgement of the supreme, the court held that Nwosu actually won the APC primary and at the same time the candidate of another political party. Even before the judgement was given, Nwosu had already pulled out of the case and because of that, Hope Uzodinma was declared the candidate by the court. The judgement was actually marred with irregularities.
Bro Supreme Court no dey make mistake. They're infallible!

and participate in the nomination process of screening and he was disqualified,
and he is not supposed to jump ship.

if you fail in your class, can you go to the next class to participate in the same exam?

In your context..
Dont people apply for change of centers for examinations before the due date of the exam?...so because the teacher said he should not write in his class, he cannot apply somewhere else?..

SmartProf:
See mumu talk o...how is Obaseki competing under 2 parties when he was screened out from participating in the APC primary contest? This man's analysis is so daft and grossly deficient that you will prefer listening to a cock crow, than listen to his opinion on issues. His statement has ended up announcing him as one who meets the case definition for psychiatric evaluation

You should not have emptied your emptiness here by sounding so porous. You just want the writer to tell you what you want to hear? Did you not read where he quoted supreme judgment? which says that one is not supposed to participate or start a process of participating for nomination from more than one political parties in one election?

Did Obaseki not participate in APC by buying form and going through their screening? Same way he participated in PDP. This is how you people like to hail someone into oblivion, even when it is glaring that the person is on the wrong route.

Supreme Court Analysts online and offline, stop hailing a ship that has left the horizon. Obaseki's ship has set sail, stop advising him, go and campaign. If you feel there are legal loopholes to exploit, kindly do so.
I'm tired of all the shenanigans. For crying out loud, who tells his opponent his weakness (in any context) instead of exploiting it? Just promoting ignorance, as everyone becomes interpreters of the law.
Ize Iyamu whose candidature is even hanging in the balance. He withdrew the suit seeking to compel INEC to accept his nomination in the FHC in Benin, yesterday; after the bigwigs in Abuja may have arm twisted INEC to do so, forgetting that any vested interest can pick it up at any time.
In the end (if they both lose out), it will be a great lesson that Edo is never to be trifled with in politics as it consumes anything on the path of people's freedom.
Maybe it's time for a neutral party to benefit.

Purchase of forms does not equate to nomination. The electoral act is clear on this
You are a veritable fool, we can't helf you.Obaseki collected Apc forms took it as Rock for. Anointing, submitted the filled forms in person , attended screening interview and finally found unfit.thereafter he run to PDP repeated the same process for same election.Aaaa I will not say anything again.

Ortom never participated nor bought APC form. He decamped when he saw the handwriting that he was not going to get the ticket

Your narrative fit in to what transpired in 2019 when he had issues with Senator Akume.He did contest and lose under PDP before he won on APC in year 2015.However nobody took him to court for that..

Purchase of form and screening is part of the nomination process. The nomination form he bought and submitted to APC and the screening committe’s report will be tendered as evidence before the court and he will be disqualified. It is that straightforward.
Having being disqualified by the APC, are you saying base on the position of the law, that should be the end of his Governorship ambition and he shouldn't pursue his ambition under any other platform? If that is the position of the law then I think the law is flawed with inadequacies. By this jittery, it is obvious that APC has lost Edo elections, let's go to Ondo

read it again and again without sentiment.

the supreme court says to participate in two or more nomination process. or to even purchased two nomination form.

hahahahahaha
una dey waste time. Let the man win first, supreme court will find a way to twist the judgement to favour him. Na money dey talk.

My opinion though, picking form does not equate to contesting a primary. These are 2 different cases. Obaseki won't have problem on that count

Yes, if the time and resources is there. If u fail waec or disqualified by waec. U can sit for Neco or Nabted as far u meet their requirements. Then when u fail uni jambb or disqualified , u go and put in poly jamb. That is freedom of thoughts, association and religion under our constitution.

You right
But in giving the judgement, the Supreme further explained that it is was even wrong to have participated or bought nomination forms of two parties.

Why are you crying more than the bereaved? Allow him to win first,then, you can take him to court according to your alienated logic. It would have been better to channel all these calories to the reasons why your preferred candidate be voted for.

kutchs:

I don't know where you guys got this report you're presenting as fact here. The Supreme Court dismissed Uche Nwosu's appeal on the ground that he had two valid nominations from two parties. Uche Nwosu had a valid nomination from the APC but the internal wranglings in APC made it impossible for him to be presented as the party's candidate which made him move over to the AA from whom he secured another nomination.
This the SC ruled is against the spirit of the the electoral law. The SC was specific on the volid nominations and not the processes leading to the nominations.
Are you saying the OP fabricated lies against the supreme Court. Check he made direct citation from supreme Court ruling.It is that you should go and check.
Re: Godwin Erahon: Obaseki Can't Compete Under 2 Parties, It's Illegal by backbone503(m): 6:59am On Jul 02, 2020
Obaseki looks most likely to win at the polls, but I have this feeling that he won't govern. Remember, he pleaded same credentials even the PDP challenged in 2016, and there are other loopholes in his candidacy that was I'll be exploited at the Tribunal.

Supreme court doesn't rule on sentiments. I'll advise Edo people not to waste their votes.

The fact still remain that Obaseki was disallowed by APC to contest primary election under their party. So you cannot add him to the contestants, because you cannot place something on northing.

I have told people that whoever comes third after PDP and APC in the general election in Edo stands a very big chance of becoming governor through the courts because the likelihood that both PDP and APC candidates would be disqualified by the courts is high. This is the time for the lesser parties to up their game and get reasonable spread of votes across two third of the LGAs in the state

In any case, I don't think it should be anyone's worry if Obaseki contests or not. When he does and wins, take the matter to case and have him disqualified.

Procurement of forms and contesting are completely different things...contestation from the rudimentary party principles starts with the primaries which Obaseki was was not privy to, no thanks to his disqualification.

The Supreme court nullified Uche Nwosu nomination in AA on the account that he had contested for nomination under APC – The spirit of the law forbids anyone to contest for nomination under two or more parties in same election or even started the process of being nominated by procuring the nomination form.


If truly the bolded clause was made by the supreme court judge. Then Obeseki needs miracle to survive.
