fergie001: Thank you very much my brother. Majority of folks here are bereft of jurisprudence in discourse. Even your friend, seunmsg, seems he's a political Nostradamus. Just take a look at his post below at the first page of this thread. 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. 1 Like |

You can contest the primary of as many political parties as you like, it's not a crime. Where the problem lies is when u become the flagbearer of two different parties in same election, u will loose both. As for the case of Uche Nwosu. Uche Nwosu was disqualified by the supreme court not because he contested the primaries of both the APC and AA. No! He was disqualified because he(Uche Nwosu) was the candidate of both the APC and AA in the same election. Since Obaseki did not at any point lay claim to the candidature of APC, the Nwosu scenario does not apply to him(Obaseki). 1 Like |

Jesusloveyou:Post your own SC judgement here let me see whether it's different from the two links fergie001 earlier posted. Just throwaway emotions and be objective for once. I know that you are a staunch APC apologist, I have known you since 2016 when you maligned and lampooned POI because he was PDP candidate, but now you are singing his praises and on the other hand, making calumnious remarks against Obaseki whom you earlier extolled and eulogized then in 2016 because he was the APC candidate. Please try and be objective this time devoid of emotions. 1 Like |

Except you didn't even allow him to contest in this case. In Imo, Uche Nwosu lost the APC contest before hijacking AA candidacy. In Lagos Ambode lost during the primary contest and stayed put. In Edo, Oshiomole hurriedly disqualified Obaseki before the contest. |

The Supreme Court Ruled against Uche Nwosu because he already had a valid ticket as APC candidate, according to Justice Adamu Augie,Nwosu could not "Benefit from his own iniquity" and Since the supreme Court cannot be used to Enforce illegality,Nwosu's appeal was dismissed in its entirety. But in Obasekis case,he was not yet a Valid candidate of the APC when he defected and got the PDP ticket. So the two scenario's are entirely different |

IduNaOba: The Supreme court nullified Uche Nwosu nomination in AA on the account that he had contested for nomination under APC. “As if to explain itself further to the outgoing Governor, the Supreme Court elaborated on how the relevant law nullifies the PDP candidacy for their understanding when it elaborated thus: ‘The spirit of the law forbids anyone to contest for nomination under two or more parties in same election or even start the process of being nominated by procuring the nomination form.’ |

He contested for nomination in APC And was disqualified and went to PDP and was qualified if this is true,am afraid wahala de! Make we de reason objectively,sentiment aside! |

Jesusloveyou:It's not about the Supreme Court knowing whether this is possible or not to obtain for in another party. The Supreme does not make laws, they only interpret. What it's about is for the Supreme Court to interpret the Electoral Act. And the Supreme Court is not daft to know that the Electoral Act does not prevent the actions of Gov. Obaseki in this case. I will cite the The Ogun State APC Primary Election scenario in 2015 as my reference point where Akinlade lost in the primaries and joined another party.

Na wa o. But Obaseki was disqualified from APC primaries, he didn't participate in it. He filled/submitted nomination forms and underwent screening is different from taking part in the primaries itself. In any case, which part of our constitution actually says if you lose out in 1 party's primaries, that you can't go to another party to pick it's ticket? Many people did this in the past and some even ended up winning the main elections - like Ikedi Ohakim did in Imo State in 2007. He lost the PDP governorship ticket and on Obasanjo's advice, went to PPA to pick their ticket, won the Governorship election and then went back to PDP. See, to me honestly, that judgement was faulty and this is how people - both now and in future, will keep using all these stupid useless faulty court judgements as reference points. 1 Like |
