You people forget that we have the worst judiciary in the world. To get justice especially when political big names are involved, is impossible in Nigeria.

I'm not a Peter Obi fan but I stand for truths

Why wouldn't court dismiss a suit against having a mentally compromised person as president-elect of Nigeria, afterall, Tinubu influenced the appointments of most of the Court judges?

see this one! That is the first thing the court will adjudicate on before going into the case proper. Once the court lacks jurisdiction to entertain the case, no matter your evidence, it is thrown out. The court has said this is an internal issue within the party and a case on this cannot be instituted by anyone except members of APC who feel aggrieved by it. Therefore, Obi is just an interloper.
Also, in the Osun guber case, the court said the issue of forgery by Adeleke has been settled severally and therefore threw out the case. The same thing with the Tinubu cases. It has been settled severally and will therefore be thrown out of court.

Learn and relearn

When Court says you have no legal basis...it has nothing to do with evidence, it means the matter no concern you in the first place no matter your evidences.
Obi and Atiku must be APC members to initiate such case

Your Allah may try but my God won't let him enjoy stealing the mandate of the people.

You will understand when the rulings are made in Obi's case. Atiku and BAT are serving the same Allah so their Allah knows what he is doing with them, God don't care about Allah.

At the bolded, if Atiku has no legal basis for this nomination case then it is Obi that will have abi? Can't you see in clear terms the legal basis the court is implying is that nomination of candidates is an internal party affair. It's not the business of Peter Obi and Atiku how Tinubu and Shettima were nominated by their party as they're not APC members. Maybe Peter Obi joined APC overnight that I'm unaware of.

let's be guided, first this case started from the high court and so clearly not an election tribunal matter which normally is instituted in the appellate court.
second, the case was dismissed on ground s of locus standi, this is because the case was not filed by mr atiku but by pdp.
Note-what might change? now that the matter have been filed before the appelate court which doubles as the presidential election tribunal having both Messrs Atiku and Obi and their respective polical parties joined in the suit and then INEC, Messrs Shetima and Tinubu as 3rd,2nd, and 1st respondents in that order then a locus standi in my view has been established. this means that the matter of double candidature will now be heard and tried under the provisions on our laws.
i hope this piece has helped in throwing light on thia subject

Hmmm.
I'm interested in what the judgement will be for the FCT case.

It wasn't as straight as you think( I may be wrong).

Why is it mandatory for us to have English Language during our SSCE? Is it that English language has two heads than other subjects? even if you have 8A and fail English, no school will admit you.






That Law was done to be an advantage to a Candidate who is not able to get 24th State 25% spread out of the usual 36 states.. The candidate can be declared Winner if he/she gets the required spread in 23 States & FCT.
Simply said, FCT can be considered 24th State for a candidate who had the required spread in just 23 States of the Federation. The intent & the spirit of that section of the Constitution is not more than this.

This Agbado miscrants won't stop masturbating on Peter Obi's affair even when fasting in Ramadan. I wonder which God will answer their prayers this fasting period, when all they do is masturbate on a man's name wey no even send their papa. The riff raffs failed to understand that this case was from Atiku but Hate and jealousy have beclouded their sense of reasoning...that's if they even gat any sense of reasoning. They have turned it to a Peter Obi matter. Later you will say Ibos hate the yorubas when this is nothing but pure hate from Agbado urchins. Matter wey no concern an ibo man, they can't stop wailing and gnashing their goro and agbo drink teeth calling on Obi's name. If you quote me, Allah will punish you and your family this Ramadan season.

you guys are always sentimental/emotional. There's what's call precedence in law. The only pleadings the waves precedence aside is when there are new evidence to that particular subject. In this case, there is non.

Guys, calm down.

Reason the federal high court throw out the case is due to Locus standi. That is, pdp doesn't have the legal position to file such case. At that level, only somebody that did primary with shetima, tinubu, or APC member can file such case.

But at election petition tribunal, pdp, LP, candidates have the locus standi to file such case by the provisions of the law.

So, I can assure you 100% that the case will be listened to at petition tribunal. Thanks.



Did you follow Osun tribunal case at all, between Oyetola and adeleke,

A petition was filed against Adeleke qualification ... process

A petition was filed by babayemi of PDp that won the primary against Adeleke .. process

OYetola petition challenged the results and pray Adeleke be disqualified over forged results .. process & result

In summary Osun cases is an oversight & covers 90% of the Petition filed by Peter Obi and Atiku
We are not discouraging them from proceeding but we are just saying don't act surprise when you get the same results other get esp. when you did the same thing cheesy

Urchins are illiterate. PDP has not legal standing to file the case because they didn't participate in the APC primary. But has the locus standi to file that case at the tribunal because they took part in the said election.

True talk. The FCT can be used to make up the 24 states require by law. It is not necessary for any other purpose.

You are an illiterate.

PDP don't have power to challenge APC primaries only individuals that participated can file that case. But PDP has the locus standi to file the case at the tribunal because they participated in the election. You can only challenge an election you participated in.

Read the judgment well. It was not dismissed because the case lacks merit but was dismissed because PDP lacks the locus standi to bring the action. But now that election is over, it is for the tribunal. The case was not determined on merit. Do not celebrate yet.

I was just about to say this ....at pre election PDP had no stakes hence cannot seek the disqualification..but now post election sny party that contested same election can challenge it ...

Thanks for this clarification
you re not smart. this is a pre-election case, only those that contest the primary according to the new electoral act is qualify to institute the case against Tinubu and shetima.
After the names of APC candidate has been forwarded to inec, the case becomes status barred.

The opposition can only challenge the candidates after election if they didn't meet up with the requirements of participating in the general election.

APC primary case is status barred at presidential tribunal, there is a time frame to challenge nomination of a candidates and the time elapsed before tribunal case.
E.g zamfara,rivers, and bayelsa case. Apc lost these states to pre-election case not Tribunal.
