Senior lawyer my azz. Does lawyers have a say in Nigeria?
Confirmedzombie:
As a senior lawyer I think the judge misfired

It is best to petition the NJC while Appeal is filled

There is no provision in the constitution of Nigeria that says any governor who defects to other party loses his position.

As at the time Umahi defected, PDP were in crisis over its former National chairman Uche Sevondus.

Im very sure the Judge will be sanctioned.

The judgement will not stand.

It will not stand bcoz change of party is not a ground for removing a serving governor.

Even in the new amendment, nothing was said about decampee.

Of course.
Nobody in the government obey court order anymore.
Nobody even respect and honor their judgements as well.
A whole judicial.
See how Nigerian politicians useless the court.

Very lawless a nation

Story for the deities!

If this case gets to the Supreme Court and the court passes its verdict, Umahi will vacate that seat immediately or be thrown away.

Power pass power!

The judge never misfired. Judges give judgement on the basis of the evidence brought before it and not based on emotions or sentiments. If PDP were able to do their homework by proving beyond reasonable doubt to the judge that there were no crises in the party at the time umahi defected, and umahi's lawyers were not able to convince the judge that there was crises in PDP, my dear any judge would fairly award the case in favor of PDP, and you can't blame the judge for awarding the case in favor of PDP who did their homework and were able to prove their case with facts. So in essence, judgements are based on your ability to prove your case with facts and evidence, and not by blowing up sentiments and emotions.
Truth is, I however actually see umahi winning at the supreme court because the Chief justice is probably sympathetic to the APC. But if the supreme court decides to be unbiased, then umahi is finished especially with the sagacious lawyers that PDP has as governors like Wike and Tambuwal who know the right button and spot to press legally to finish an individual.

Can you tell us the address of the Chambers of Wike and Tambuwal?

Wait wait.... and the hospital of Dr Saraki.

Useless political animals.

Please tell us how Dino melaye, saraki and Orton, Obaseki escaped their own? Was there 2 chairmen with oshomole in apc? Abeg

I just told you how Saraki and the rest were able to escape theirs in the last paragraph of what you quoted.

Prior to 2019 polls, the APC had internal tussles, but no factions. The APC also didn't take the defectors to court, so that's their win and APC'S loss.

We are getting there. Federal High Court has just laid the track, Supreme Court will do the finishing and hence we have a verifiable precedence for future references.

Yeah...... we'll be waiting to see what happens eventually. My forecast is that the governor and deputy will be saved eventually but the law makers i doubt.

u ppl will just sit down n right what dat comes to ya mind just bcoz u don't like a particular political party. U now believe that judgement in Nigeria can't be bought or influence rather than by evidence since it favoured ya party. It would've been d other way round if Obaseki was sacked when he cross_carpeted to contest for PDP primary with APC mandate. Nigerians and double standard are like 5&6.

That means he was not a valid PDP Candidate
Ur very wrong,obaseki never defected,he was a candidate of PDP b4,during and after the election,and PDP eventualy won, so the votes that brought him to power for a second term belong to the PDP

The position of the is that it is illegal for an elected officer to defect from a party if there are no internal issues or crisis in the party that warrants defection. It's on this grounds that the judge based his judgment.[/s]


Any Governor can defect from a party irrespective of any crises

There is no time that there I'd no internal crisis in the top two fraudulent partied in Nigeria. Currently, Wike the wicked is on the neck of the only Presidential aspirant named Atikuchukwu Abubakar in PDP. All Southern governors are on the neck of the Central Working Committee of the PDP for the Presidential ticket to be zoned to the South.

APC own is free for all fight.

The place you are talking about the camping did not say anything about the executive arms.It talked about the legislative only and this is his saving grace.

If this report is true, then this is not a dignified response,it is too emotional and can embarrass his lawyers when presented in court.
Sincerely,I sympathize with him.

My consolation remains that all these sudden developments will still end in praise to God for the Asiwaju Tinubu victory at the Presidential poll.

On the mandate of Asiwaju Tinubu I stand. Please support and vote for Asiwaju Tinubu.

That Justice Inyang Ekwo of FCT High Court is making joke of the judiciary. He should be restrained from giving cash n carry judgment. Gov Umahi and Dr Kelechi Igwe must serve out their tenure. The judgment is dead on arrival.

Appeal Court is higher than Federal High Court in precedent and order of supremacy.

Whether an appeal is launched or not, a court order must be obeyed until a higher court overturns it. Take for example peter Obi's case. He was in court for three years, during that period was he governor?
