A Pyrrhic Victory For APC - The Real Battle Is In The Courts by bethnals9: 6:43pm On Mar 01, 2023
Nigerians.

The sham of an election that we have just witnessed may indeed be a blessing in disguise – as it has laid bare – for all to see – the main problem in our nation – impunity.

Those of you that are readers of history may have come across the term - Pyrrhic victory. Such is simply a victory that inflicts such a big toll on the victor that it is tantamount to defeat.

And I believe that the so-called victory of APC-INEC – is exactly that - a Pyrrhic victory.

Why?

Because there is no judge in Nigeria that can say he/she has not witnessed the monumental fraud that has taken place – a fraud that was broadcast worldwide for over 4 days - where simple arithmetic proved to be too difficult. They may look away – but they have seen it.

Fundamentally, it is our court-judge system that has failed this country – not really our presidents.

All great nation states are founded on law-and-order – everything else is built on top of this. It is law that gives any president power – and that same law can take presidential powers away.

Those judges that look after our courts – are all Nigerians – living in Nigeria.

Who are they, where are they?

We must put serious pressure on them to do the right thing.

These people should not be left to hide behind anyhowness again - while millions of Nigerians continue to suffer injustice. That is not what god put them in their positions to do.

They must do the right thing. And the people who love this country will back them 100%.

PS. Even if LP or PDP had won – these same judges could void the election – and declare the APC candidate as winner. We have already seen this happen in IMO state.

The Battle is with the judiciary - not APC, not INEC. We must shine light on the Judiciary - for they have been operating in the shadows for too long.

Oga we are ten miles ahead of APC, Obi is our next president and the world knows that. That's why the international communities are yet to congratulate him. Do you think that they are Fools.
Even the US and British envoys in Nigeria all kept mute. grin grin

The victory is pyrrhic indeed.....
And i hope the judiciary won't join INEC.... cause the chief judge is a brother to the so-called victor.......

but i am confident that the best is on the way....

You still believe in Nigeria courts, that means you don't live in Nigeria or you have not been following election petitions in the country, even if you have the whole evidence in this world, they will use technicalities. Don't hope on Nigeria judiciary they won't do justice

Shock absorber ni!

Mr bethnal9, let me give you tfare to supreme court.
Maybe you think people didn't vote en-mass for APC. Northern votes won elections for Tinubu. Tell Obi to go and lick North's yansh too.

Oga. Its because they operate in darkness. Most Nigerians don't have any idea who these people are. Let us beam the spotlight on them.
