And what is the meaning of 25 percent of 37 states?

The law states 25 percent votes in two-thirds (or 66.7 percent) of 37 states.

Two-thirds of 37 states is 24.67.

So 24 states is applied not 25, just to err on the side of caution.

IN MATHS, when u have 24.67 u approximate to the 25.
why do u want to teach us nonsense?

Femmyfamous4u:


That's why I said for anyone to win, he must have 25% in 25 states. TINUBU has it in 28 states.

OGA TAKE YOUR CASE TO COURT AND STOP SWEATING ONBEHALF OF TINUBU. MTCHEWWW

So if I go out to eat and my bill is 24.67
I must pay 25?

24 and 2/3!

= 2/3 of 36 + 2/3 of ABUJA!✅

tesppidd:
That's why I said they use 24 in order to play safe, err on the side of caution.

If they use 25 states, somebody who makes only 24 states will go to court and argue that 24.6 states is not up to 25.

Hence the use of 24.

If Abuja isn't a stand alone case, they wouldn't mentioned it separately

No,just like in 1979,we should make abuja the 13 or 25 state.1/3 of 2/3 of fct will be enough

Fortunately, Abuja is NOT a state. . . so it must have been made . . . A 75% requirement as the seat of nationality.

But the standards were lowered to TWENTY FIVE PERCENT.
If you can't get 25% in ABUJA, it means. . . you are not wanted there.

Then you can rule from any other place state aside fct.now in a runoff or rerun,the constitution simply stated that the winner will need just a simple majority and the two third spread will no longer count even if you fail woefully again in fct.so you see how ridiculous and childish the fct requirement is? By the way,the courts has severally recognized the fct as a state

Please, refer to the supreme court judgement on this case in 2008.

If so. . .provide YOUR SUPREME COURT JUDGEMENT. This was 14 years ago.

Stop lying through your teeth. Abi you no go school? When something gets above .50 it is rounded up and not down. You cannot round down 24.67 to 24. It is rounded up to 25.

There was no ruling concerning fct there.I have read it more than 20 times,you are also free to do same.the apex court only tried to explain the importance of And and no reference was made to fct.in any case,the 2021 case between bakare vs ogundipe takes precedence

Go and see the supreme courts interpretation of that section 134 of the constitution in the case between Buhari and Yaradua. They clearly stated in that judgment that you must get 25% in the FCT.

Every human being who is sensible knows the meaning of "AND" and "INCLUDING". They mean two different things. But you Tinubu supporters won't rest until you impose illegality on Nigerians. You all will fail anyway.

Stop deceiving people with emotions.

You lie.the supreme court never ruled on 25% in fct.both yaradua and buhari got 25% in fct.they also ruled on the importance of And.I challenge you to post that portion if you can.you are the one deceiving yourself and obi

As of today oooooo.. . . .FCT IS NOT A STATE IN NIGERIA OR ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD. ✔✔✔
If you have problems . . . SEE YOU IN COURT!


https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/States_of_Nigeria#Evolution_of_Nigerian_states

Nigeria is a federation of 36 states and 1 federal capital territory. Each of the 36 states is a semi-autonomous political unit that shares powers with the federal government as enumerated under the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria. The Federal Capital Territory (FCT), is the capital territory of Nigeria, and it is in this territory that the capital city of Abuja is located. The FCT is not a state but is administered by elected officials who are supervised by the federal government.

Each state is subdivided into local government areas (LGAs). There are 774 local governments in Nigeria.[1] Under the constitution, the 36 states are co-equal but not supreme because sovereignty resides with the federal government. The constitution can be amended by the National Assembly, but each amendment must be ratified by two-thirds of the 36 states of the federation.

Is 2/3 of 36 states 25 states?the law says atleast 25% in not less than 24 states...since the law stipulates in not less than 24 states it means the 2/3 of 36 is 24,my friend Abuja is on it's and 25% is lawful required in Abuja as the FCT(The President appoints the FCT minister who oversees the affairs of Abuja,The president also appoints the chief Judge of the FCT).So for a President to effectively carry out all those appoints in FCT,he/she must get the 25% of the total vote cast in a Presidential Election.

All these children sef!

Logic and common sense is so far from you!

This is law and not constitution.

You think the interpreters of the constitution who made it 24 instead of 25 are fools?

Abi you get sense pass them?



For the last time let me try to explain it to you;

Two-thirds of 37 is 24.67.

Now this is constitutional law guiding humans not some abstract mathematical problem or some word problem dealing with sharing of oranges.

The law is already stringent enough demanding candidates to actualize 25 percent in two-thirds of the states.

Rounding up 24.66 to 25 instead of rounding down to 24 would create further difficulties for candidates.

And it would lead to a lot of litigations.

This is common sense not mathematics Oga.

Dunno how to explain this further but good luck to you as you try to understand.

Flame77:


This is the ABSOLUTE correct interpretation if we are to look it mathematically, logically and most importantly DISPASSIONATELY.

Election is an expression of numbers not grammar

So mathematically 36 + 1 FCT is what ??

where there is + can you refuse to sum up

Dey play
