Penguin2:Whenever the judgement does not favour PDP, you are always ashamed. When the court was dashing PDP, states like Bayelsa, Zamfara etc, for spurious reasons, the judgement was good then. 9 Likes 2 Shares |

LegendHero:When I was blaming INEC,, people thought I was joking. Now, the system has scattered them. All those Presiding Officers and APO-1 and APO-2 in all those 700+plus Polling-units must be severely punished for bringing bad name to INEC. 10 Likes 2 Shares |

ejimatic: Agreed that TB acted on behalf of INEC but after cancellation of votes from over 700 polling units, do you think the provision of subsection 4 was met? Are 700 polling units so small and insignificant that a winner can be declared without votes from there? 1 Like |

Apparently, the op and a lot of commentators here have a legal inclination - kudos to you all; for those of us, who are not so inclined, it is the Osun people we feel sorry for: on the one side, the petitioner that did not over-vote, he and his party are persona non grata to most Osun people, while Uncle Demola (the declared winner) paadi to Uncle Bob Dee (Dele Momodu) has shady certificates, is popular more for his dancing (I like it though),his being David's Uncle (perhaps why many young people support him), his bank rolling elder brother (you shoulda seen the way he Dobale for am when declared winner) and more recently his daughter-in-law's washing of their dirty linens on social media... than anything else. All these will only hinder progressive development in the State which impacts the masses more. |

dat9jaguy: Are you an election thief? You saw it boldly written in the Electoral Law that where overvoting is spotted, the results of the polling unit should be cancelled, and another election conducted in the polling unit, if there is reason to believe that the overall result from the entire election will not be affected if another election is not conducted in the polling until where overvoting was spotted? How come the Oshun Tribunal awarded outright victory to the APC candidate? 1 Like |

garfield1:You quoted someone who has been abusing me here nah wrt that. When he sends you the doc, mention me. Evidence is not evidence and you know this. When Obaseki, Ayade and co had questionable documents, what kept their elections? M That asides the PDP has allowed new aspirants for the new Primary. |

BluntCrazeMan:Do you know the funny thing, go through one of your threads. You wrote that even days after the election (I think it was Anambra or so), that INEC was yet to update some results in their portal. This is what exactly happened... |

garfield1: Hmmm! 700 polling units appears significant though. Shouldn't there be consideration for a rerun in those polling units? |
Re: Osun Tribunal: What The Law Says In Case Of Over Voting (picture) by BluntCrazeMan: 12:03am On Jan 28, 2023 |
garfield1:Read the Section-136.. Sub-section-3 again. The Tribunal or the courts can declare the highest number, provided the candidate satisfied the requirements of the Constitution and the Electoral Act. Thus,, even the Tribunal and the courts must check for the requirements too.. If not, then the results are INCONCLUSIVE.. (It's not only INEC that gets to check the requirements) AND YOU KNOW WHAT THAT MEANS?? |
