Congratulations to South west.
The coast is now clear. The presidency is between BAT and Osibanjo.
Politics is all about personal interest and compensation of sacrifices.
You can not eat where u don't work. Those constituting nuisance on nairaland should go and hide themselves in shame. Your region has invested heavily in a party that never deam it fit to clinch their presidential ticket.

Such law is evil and oppressive. How can people be denied the right to vote and be voted for? since when does political appointments become a disqualifying factor for people interested in other political offices. It's obvious the brown teeth drug addict who piss on himself regularly must have lobbied his boys in NASS to do this evil electoral bill so that people like Osinbajo, Amaechi who can defeat him easily will not be allowed and their right robbed away from them. Well, las las if APC give the pissi pissi man ticket we will mobilize an unprecedented massive support for Atiku in Niger Delta. If that pee pee man win elections in Nigeria I swear I will apply section 14 of the Constitution ( citizenship renounciation) instead of being a Nigerian were such a person is president. I use to like Tinubu until he started pissing on himself and I started watching his videos seeing how much he doesn't look presidential or talk presidential. I swear, Any pdp aboki is preferred over Tinubu as far as south South and South east Nigeria is concerned, know this and know peace

It's even a slap on South west if APC Presidential ticket goes to the South east and if Atiku or other northerner gets the PDP ticket.
Loyalty replicated is one of the unwritten law of life. If PDP could not consider her Presidential ticket to South east, then what's the justification for APC to do so?
Instead of their youths to learn from current political situations, hatred and emotions will not allow them.Blackmail doesn't guarantee power,
Until they put their egos aside and learn the tactics involved in politics, the rotations of political power will keep excluding them.

God bless me
God bless Asiwaju,
God bless Nigeria.

Well, maybe they thought since they have puppets at the hems at the National Assembly, it will be easy to amend it at will.

EasternActivist:


So osinbajo will have to resign

BIGDADDY000:
Hmm, POLITICS! although that's a how it suppose to be,

they should go and resign indeed if they want to hold a public offices.

But i trust that AUTOCRATIC MAN he will overrule their judgement as usual.

tHEY ARE HIS BOYS

humberjade:
By now, people should know how incompetent Malami is...it is his job to vet these things and advice the President accordingly. But he is too shallow to detect a crucial part of the bill that would eventually come bsck to bite him in the butt. Quota System failure

If political appointed officers are to resign before seeking elections, why not the elected officers also. The senators, House members, governors and president should also resign so as not to have undue advantage. After all what is sauce for the goose is also sauce for the gander.

All these can be solved by direct primaries.

What do you think about this Section 84(10):.....I don't think it can stand in Court.

garfield1:


True.very true,I've been thinking about it.the constitution gives aspirants 30 days to resign from public office and the constitution still gives any Nigerian freedom to vote and be voted for.therefore, it will end up being repealed like section 140

Exactly what I’ve been saying, the constitution will always supersede the electoral act. Sometimes our lawmakers always put the cart before the horse.

Not that, they want to get back at Govs/President's appointees but I don't think it can stand.

SocialJustice:
Omo, when I read however, vice-president can contest, belle sweet me. Osinbajo is our next president. Eventually, Tinubu will concede. Tinubu is a great politician and should be content with what he has for his age.

CyberWolf:
Yes I know but then, they didn’t really play their game well. They should’ve just amend that section of the constitution straight away.. Well that wouldn’t be easy anyway.

CyberWolf:
Don’t rejoice yet, the constitution supersedes that electoral act, so that clause 84 might just be useless.

JubrinElSudan:
APC Sha! This was a normal thing under GEJ. Ministers(Emeka Wogu, Nyesom Wike etc) were resigning to contest Primary elections in their states and we even thought it was already in the electoral law, then APC came and people like Fayemi was still a minister while contesting for Ekiti primaries. Kudos to the NASS for not amending that section like Malami had wanted.

fergie001:

It won't sail.
The Governors will kill it at the House of Assembly stage. The Governors use the appointees method to win primaries to install their Senators and punish any "errant" Abuja representative.

Infact, even from the NA it will fail.
