https://www.vanguardngr.com/2022/04/breaking-court-declines-to-sack-ayade-deputy-for-defecting-to-apc/ The Federal High Court sitting in Abuja, on Thursday, dismissed the suit the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, filed to declare the seat of Governor Ben Ayade of Cross River State and his Deputy, Ivara Esu, vacant, following their defection to the ruling All Progressive Congress, APC. The court, in a judgement that was delivered by Justice Taiwo Taiwo, held that the duo could not be sacked from their positions, other than through statutory procedures that were stipulated in sections 180, 188 and 189 of the 1999 Constitution, as amended. It held that defection to another political party was not stated as one of the grounds for the removal of either a governor or his deputy. “The 3rd and 4th Defendant cannot be removed except by Constitutional provision. “This court has no power to declare vacant the seat of the 3rd and 4th Defendants”, Justice Taiwo held. PDP had in its suit marked FHC/ABJ/CS/975/2021, prayed the court to sack both Ayade and his deputy, contending that the duo, having abandoned the political party that sponsored their re-election, ought to vacate their respective offices. It prayed the court to order the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, to immediately, “receive from the plaintiff (PDP), the name of its candidates to replace the 3rd and 4th defendants (Ayade and Esu) for the purpose of utilising the lawful votes cast in favour of the plaintiff or in the alternative directing the 1st defendant to hold a gubernatorial election for Cross River State in accordance with Section 177 of the Constitution excluding the 3rd and 4th defendants who are disqualified from participating in the election by virtue of Section 192 (1) (b) of the Constitution) arising from abandonment of the majority lawful votes and the offices occasioned by the action of the 3rd and 4th defendants by reason of their becoming members of the 2nd defendant who did not win majority of the lawful votes cast at the election”. Aside from Ayade and his deputy, the INEC and APC were also cited as Defendants in the matter. 6 Likes 1 Share

In our home, we don't wake our parents up with bicycle kick. Home training and culture are embedded in our hearts. I won't throw tantrum at your father but you doing shows how you treat yours at home. A fool will always be a fool, no matter the level of their exposure or age. Advise, downgrade your level of foolishness and drink the coffee because all this bile you're throwing up and down won't solve problem. Be guided and learn. Never say what you don't know and mislead the people. |

The court cannot remove a sitting governor based on defection. But the lawmakers, sorry na their name, except they can prove to the court that there was internal crisis in the party before they defected. 1 Like |

Is This How Governor Ayade Will Leave Us? BY AGBA JALINGOMAR 08, 2022 In 447 days time from now, Governor Ayade will share the grace from office. He will stop being our governor. In case you don't understand; he will hand over to a new governor and become former governor. But the actual grace sharing begins after the primaries of the political parties which must hold and be completed within the next five months. Even before and after then, politicking takes over everything. Governance grinds to a total halt. But I have been thinking and picking my teeth and wondering that, like play, like play, is this how Governor Ayade will just leave us? 1. Without a superhighway, an evacuation corridor where we will drive from Calabar to Obudu with a glass of water on the trunk of the car and the glass will not shake? 2. Without turning Bakassi to Lugano? 3. Without resettling the Bakassi IDPs? 4. Without, a deep sea port in Bakassi? 5. Without Ikom Chocolates in the stores? 6. Without poles, piles and pylons in even Bedwell market in Calabar? 7. Without even a face towel from garment factory in any shop on Marian road in Calabar? 8. Without a rice city churning out highly improved "Calas 77" seeds to the rest of Nigeria to generate N70billion annually for Cross River and decouple the State from federal allocation? 9. Without a trademark roofing sheet or tile from Yala roofing tile factory, in the market? 10. Without Bekwara groundnut oil in the market? 11. Without Obubra cassava processing factory starch in the stores? 12. Without thousands of Cross Riverians on the Ayadecare insurance scheme? 13. Without a functional passenger and cargo airport in Obudu? 14. Without registering an airline or getting an AOC? 15. With a chicken processing factory that functions only during the Yuletide? 16. Without a cotton farm in Yala to feed the garment factory? 17. With brown roofs in Calabar without changing every roof to blue roof? 18. Without a spaghetti fly over? 19. With a depleted green forest and murderous wood barons? 20. Without a bag of Ogoja rice in the market from a bubbling rice mill in Ogoja? 21. With a nearly decapitated civil service? 22. With children been driven away from primary schools for illegal levies? 23. Without Ayadecare Specialist Hospitals in the three senatorial districts? 24. Without Centricot, Northicot and Calas Vegas? 25. Without a petrocross vessel to rake in revenue for our State? 26. Without a vessel to ship merchandize from Cross River to the world? 27. Without a revolutionary robotic and artificial intelligence innovation? 28. Without flying essential drugs to remote areas in Cross River with drones? 29. Without a functional 23 megawatts electricity generating plant in Calabar or 26 megawatts in Tinapa? 30. Without building two megawatts electricity generating plants in each of the 18 Local Government Areas of the State, through Industrial Project Services (IPS) from South Africa? 31. Without a single drug manufactured from CalaPharm? 32. Without a functional toothpick factory in Ekori? 33. Without a functional Cross River microfinance bank? 34. Without a banana processing farm in Odukpani? 35. Without the anti-tax committee ending taxation of people earning 50k and below? 36. Without stopping indigenes from paying fees in UNICROSS as he promised? 37. Without the monorail which he opened himself in Calabar? 38. Without Ayade food banks anywhere in the State? 39. Without kisime Noddles in the market? 40. With just food on the table for a few? 41. Without delivering the Ugep polytechnic? 42. Without delivering the Ogoja Polytechnic? 43. Without take-off of Teachers Institute in Biase LGA? 44. Without take-off of Canadian School in Obudu? 45. Without a solar panel manufacturing factory, opposite Brigadier Ally cantonment? 46. Without a Cambodian King grass plantation that grows with lush, to solve the farmers/herders crises in Nigeria and raise revenue for our State? 47. Without a social housing estate for the Aborigines of Obudu ranch? 48. Without fixing the State Library? 49. Without the Mopol barracks in Okworotung Obudu? 50. Without turning around the moribund Obudu Cattle Ranch? These were just some of our governor's promises amongst others. Once the cameras roll in front of him, the promises begin to cascade like the springs of Obudu Ranch. He promised a bag full and has achieved little. Scattered all over our State today are monuments of infantile passion about industrialization without direction, that will serve as mementos of the trappings of a governor who knew how to talk but could not do. Governor Ayade remains a shining and fantastic example of how passion alone and ideas do not translate to delivery. He is an epitome of a plan-less leader and a reflection of what a disaster plan-lessness and impulse leadership can wreck. If you rely on optics and oratory, Ayade will win Nigeria's best governor any day. But the reality on the ground is not far from me. It is within my grasp, because I am involved. Yours sincerely, Citizen Agba Jalingo. 14 Likes 4 Shares |
