The SC will help us distinguish between Disqualification & Exclusion!

In Kogi 2019....the SC never brought up the issue of statute-barred or not but just valid or invalid nomination.

Adamawa 2019.....Help me with the case.


Again....don't let us lose focus on this case, the ANDP were informed they will had an invalid nomination since Sept 27, 2019 & they did nothing about it until Feb 26, 2020. Isn't that erroneous?

One small party also complained of exclusion in Adamawa last year,can't remember how it ended.

Infact,am no more interested inbayelsa,let diri win afterall he will lose again in 2023 depending on how apc performs in bayelsa central this Month.I rather focus on the bye polls and seriake case.I dont know of ondo.
It is clear that even apc are not interested on bayelsa based on 2023 calculations. They can always get 25% there without a game governor unlike imo that they can't get 25% without a governor

Let's agree that you and your ANDP have a point to prove, why did you not file it on time, especially after the said election? undecided

This is laughable.

What are the prayers of ANDP?
The ANDP was after its exclusion and not proving if its candidates were validly nominated or qualified.


Bottom line, INEC has no power to disqualify or exclude a party from participating in an election because it doesn't screen candidates of parties contesting an election.


Nigerian judiciary is a mess.

Unlawful exclusion.
APP v Fintiri
The tribunal dismissed the case on lack of merit at a cost of 1m against APP, they didn't appeal.

Oshiomole was overwhelmingly voted for but rigged out. There were protests everywhere, so much that the PDP couldn't have incurred the wrath of the people.


As for Peter Obi, he was impeached in the most controversial manner that drew the ire of everyone both within and outside Nigeria. It was a failed "coup detat"

In both cases, the PDP tried but failed woefully. If not for the doggedness of the people and the international community, both governors would have been kicked out..

[b]But here, we have an APC governor who was overwhelmingly voted for sacked. [/b]That's the true meaning of non interference. cheesy

Bros sorry, the election was rigged in the favour of APC. Several polling units where hijacked and then electorates were instructed to thumb print on APC upon their arrival to the polling unit. A colleague of mine who went to cast his vote narrated what happened that day.

I believe God is working for the good of bayelsans because only Him knows what apc has planned to do if they' had succeeded in taking the state.

Please I just want to know how two courts will hear the case but gives different judgements. Is it that the court that nullifies the election in the first place didn't know about this two case points:

- ANDP did not prove valid nomination of its candidate to contend unlawful exclusion.

- Case of ANDP was statute barred having failed to file within 14days.

This is because they failed to appeal the case within 14 days after INEC issued a warning about the qualification of their candidate.

It's likely that the tribunal was compromised. I guess that's the reason the chairman dissociated himself from the judgement of the tribunal.
