I read from a reliable news outlet that the court ordered for a new primary before the deadline for submission of candidates which is July 15.. sheriff will definitely go to appeal no doubt..okowa would rather die lol than allow edebvie succeed him

seunmsg:


Is that the decision of the court? The report did not indicate that Edevbie should be recognized by INEC as the candidate of PDP.

fergie001:
That is what mostly will happen. he should respect himself, I don't even see how he can scale through.

garfield1 vicdom kyase (what I got from the internet).

JBriel:
Same thing will happen to Okowa. We will teach him who his elders are

fergie001:
Yes, what the petitioner asked for was for Oborevwori to be disqualified. Once the Court grants same, he will come in there, because he came second.

However, INEC will be on Siddon look because it will still go up.

Mrkumareze:
Hmmmm, this will be a disaster to PDP empire in the state.

CheapHomes1:


That was why edevbie took oborevwori to court in the first place

Ganjafama:
How can Sheriff with disputed credentials take part in the primaries. He stands disqualified.

seunmsg:


If the court did not specifically order that Edevbie should be recognized as the candidate or another primary election should be concluded, then the implication of the judgement if it stand is that PDP won’t have a candidate.

garfield1:


What does the electoral act says about an ineligible candidate

mastermaestro:


Why him dey gamble with names up and down? Is he mad or something? I need explanation. Most politicians are thieves and kings of forgeries.

JBriel:
Same thing will happen to Okowa. We will teach him who his elders are

CheapHomes1:


Did edevbie now take oborevwori to court just for the sake of it?

seunmsg:


That’s why we are still waiting for the full details of the judgement. We need to know his prayers and what exactly was granted by the court apart from the disqualification of Sheriff. It is also important to note that not all prayers are granted.

Milljack:
Let's wait for an higher Court of jurisdiction..if it's substitution of names okowa will still forward another person u see edebvie em no smell am

SamOchuko:
It could be what he asked for but was that prayer granted? Did the judge make an order to that effect? It is not all prayers that are granted by the court, moreover has the time lapse for substitution of candidates by political parties not elapse?

MMWandali:
First lost to Okowa

They need to be careful

garfield1:


No sir.a disq of a candidate disq the party... Diri vs degi supra

Anything you guys can say or do, I don't just want the satanic party APC near the corridors of power in Delta State.

Please, who is the Labour Party candidate in Delta State?

Ganjafama:
In cases like this substitution of names does not come into play. The runner up automatically becomes the flag bearer.

This being a pre-election matter, we agree with the trial Court that votes polled by the 1st Respondent (Abah) through nomination by the 2nd Respondent (PDP) are invalid and wasted. The Appellant (Saleh) being the runner up in the PDP Primary election conducted for the said election automatically steps into his shoes as nominee and winner of the election into the Ado, Okopwu and Ogbadibo Federal Constituency of Benue State.
