"Two-third of all states and the FCT" is not the same as "Two-third of all states and two-third of the FCT." Go figure.

SenatePresdo:
This exactly what will throw this country into and avoidable Flow of blood.

If they dare to overlook the Constitution of FCT 25%.

We are patiently waiting for the court, the tension don over mature.

Na spark we dey wait for.

Babaibe:

continue to fool around

jaymichael:
Sometimes I just wonder, is Obi employing people as dumb as him? I was explaining him to include in his petition concrete evidence of rigging and electoral malpractices against his party ot at least voters suppression. Instead it is BAT and Shettima aren't qualified and their votes cancelled. No 25% in FCT. Such cheap and very watered petition.
Obi fit don collect money abeg. If you can trust a business man, you should trust a politician too
Last last is what happened is that Obi lost squarely. He lost the North, Southwest, North Central barely took south south.

SenatePresdo:
Its more like.

For you to pass WAEC, you must pass 5 subjects, and English language.

For you to win Presidential Election, you must have 25% in 24 states, and FCT.

The say that FCT is a state, is English not a subject??

We are impatiently waiting for them.

Benwallt:
25% is not perculiar to FCT. It was included just as a state being a federal Capital Territory. Tinubu met the required percentage. He didn't get 25% in Anambra n some other places too

Sheggy13:

Sincerely, I'm shocked at that FCT 25% nonsense. Are they saying if you win in all 36% states of the Federation and refuse to get 25% in FCT then you shouldn't be declared President. Where's the sense in that. I'm surprised the use of "and" conjunction and concord in basic English is seriously causing problems for so-called senior lawyers.

Somebody should please answer if these two scenarios are the same:
There are 24 boys and 12 girls in a class.
1. I need two-third of the boys and girls in this class for a task.
2. I need two-third of the boys and two-thirds of the girls, in this class for a task.

Then compare these scenarios with how that section in the constitution was written and see which one fit. There you have your answer.

Parachoko:
We go meet at the Court

Una go explain how Abuja people get two Head

seunmsg:
There is no confusion anywhere. That someone filed a case in court doesn’t mean he’s right. The case is simply a waste of time and will be trashed. Section 299 of the Constitution is as clear as daylight.

You will kill yourself tire in imo, abia, enugu, ebonyi and anambra. No Yoruba man, south-south man or hausa man will die for your foolishness and greediness. Soldier will kill you tire.Bittered people

Allisgud:
If the people in Abuja the sit of power even the govt house can vote for obi,I wonder which SS and NC he wount win,as far as I am concern obi won in all SS and NC minus kogi and kwara

SmartPolician:
That FCT 25% NONSENSE sounds absurd to me. FCT is often separated from the 36 states because it's a territory, not a state (they cannot call it 37 states). However, as far as the election is concerned, FCT is like every other state in the country.

BTW, if Peter Obi is hoping to use that as basis to upturn Tinubu's sham victory, then I am afraid he has no case against the Druggie because it won't work.

Fut9ure:

You know the funny thing

Obi is a south south project

It was when the igbos saw the support from south south that was when they started supporting obi

Munmun, na south-south people tell you say im be there project. Reason Atiku won Akwa-Ibom, Tinubu won bayelsa and rivers. Even Wike rigged.Wike can not rig the entire state.

Kennydoc:


If they wanted to consider FCT as a state, they should have used the word a'including'.

The Supreme Court, have ruled on this matter before, stating that a candidate must have 2/3 of 36 states, including FCT.
But my worry is that I don't trust our judiciary system. Period

We are impatiently waiting for them.

Fut9ure:


Those states were massively rigged

Don't worry you go cry later when court talk

Formularcr7:
I don't think 25% in FCT will be a must because in the future if we have 5 strong candidates, definitely none of them might have 25%. The 25% is only visible when we have few contestants

Afonja2:
In other words, even if you win all the 36 states of the federation and you did not score 25% in FCT, you can not become a president?

You think the drafters of Nigeria constitution are so daft? What is the big deal about FCT that unless you win 25% of it's total votes, you can not be president?

Agbakoba and his ilks know they are just being mischievous. Senior Advocates of Nonsense

Obinoscopy:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zzNchKUi6MU

The former President of the Nigerian Bar Association (NBA), Olisa Agbakoba, actually saw this political conundrum of 25% requirement coming and wrote to INEC seeking clarification and also seeking their understanding of Section 134 of the Constitution which states that the winner of a presidential election must get 25% of the casted votes in two-thirds of the States and the FCT. He wrote the letter in January, 2023.

The video above even shows Agbakoba asking the INEC spokesman, Festus Okoye, this same question and Festus dodged giving a response. He simply said the INEC Chairman will be the only one who can answer this question and the Chairman will only answer this question after the election is conducted. The video was before the election.

See the video above.

Teeroyzimma:
that's the rigged result, when will you guys have sense

CSTRR:

You want soldiers to kill innocent Nigerians because of an old drug dealer that is there to plunder national resources.

You will not excel.
