I agree wit u.It doesnt seem like Obi will get justice.I dont see this as a fair judgement.Electoral law says u cant vie for two positions at same time.Yet Shettima did.

Did you see his name on senatorial ballot paper

You're sick in your mind by bringing Igbo into this. Why are you guys very tribalistic?.

The writer of that People's Gazette, is a Yoruba man.

Only him knows who paid him

What's the Igbo thing with the article?. Is People Gazette now equal to Igbo or is the Yoruba writer now Igbo?
The wheel chair rumor and picture of the CJN was started by Sam Amadi on Twitter. So, People’s Gazette will eventually tell us who their reliable source was.

Intelligently going through the comments and reading from intelligent minds in the comments I think we can safely conclude that tinubu is officially the president. From what I gleaned from the brilliant legal minds in the comments

1- the non-eligibility of a candidate based on felony such as a drug crime stops being relevant against the candidate 10 years after the crime is recorded and judged. In tinubus case this supposed drug crime is over 40 years old now. That's four times the required time. So based on this that accusation would be tossed

2- is the issue of the 25 percent FCT. Which the FCT is seen as a 37th state and not a compulsory entity to win. They say someone has challenged buhari in this case before and lost so a precedent has been set for this case. TOSSED OUT

3- the issue of pre-selection bantering within a party before the election based on pre conceived legal grievances becomes irrelevant once the election is done and dusted and the only person who can then challenge the winner after this fact is someone within the winners party and anyone outside of the winners party has no jurisdiction to challenge it and based on this we TOSS IT OUT

IN CONCLUSION IT NOW APPEARS THE OPPOSITION HAS NO CASE SO I SAY, elofokanbale

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.

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.



The index you are using has no correlation, for instance you are saying during governor election if the governor did not win state capital with 25% the election can't stand

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.

That is illogical. So for all the other 11 states you couldn’t get %25, but somehow you believe FCT will be the wrecking ball…?

FCT has that special status because those who made the law at the time saw it as the seat of power and because our laws haven’t been tried to that extent it hasn’t been interpreted as such.

Pls can u check inec portal if Shettima name is still there as senatorial candidate

This is what the law said:
Electoral Act 2022 for politicians to obtain multiple nomination forms. According to Section 115 (D) of the Act, a person who signs a nomination paper or result form as a candidate in more than one constituency at the same election commits an offence and is liable on conviction to a maximum term of imprisonment for two years.
Comprehend whether he faulted the rule or not.

You should swear in a shrine first.since you are the one making allegations, the burden of prove is on you.
Then now swear with your miserable life that OBI didnt collude with INEC official to rig in the east and give him 96 percent in all states.
Infact the only rigger in this election is OBI..they guy na smooth criminal.
All other candidates lost one or more states to opposition in their stronghold,only OBI cleared his.Thief!

See how intelligent you are, every party has their various constitutions and guidelines only a party member has the right to challenge any irregularities. PDP or LP can't determine what happens in APC provided APC meet the constitution requirements of INEC........I know you will still not agree or understand but it is the simple truth.


Double candidature is not a party’s internal matter but a Nigerian Law. The reason it was thrown out is because it hasn’t done anything against the constitution at the time.

Some politicians in 2019 lost their seats because of this.

Now that elections have taken place, they can challenge the nomination.

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.

It is so sad that many youth and elderly in this forum do not take time to read, this judgement was not on drugs petition, the judgement was on the fact that kashim shetima has already bought sentoria form for Borno to contest and Tinubu still picked him as his running mate, so PDP as the court to disqualify them but the court said is not the duty of PDP to demand for their disqualification, it was argued that is APC internal affairs not issue of PDP. Pls always read down to the last line of write up and it will help your contribution.. from page 1-4 everybody is shouting nonsense

Shettima’s name was not on the list for candidates for Senate, during the election and he did not receive any votes for his constituency. So after being picked as Tinubu’s deputy, he must have stepped down. Case closed. He also has a right to put up nomination prior to knowledge about Tinubu’s interest in him.

Misterone:
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.
Why compare Adeleke case and Obi case? did you read the 3 responses from the Adeleke-Oyetola judges properly? One major case of Obi is prayer point #5 of Inec not complying with their own electoral laws with back up evidences making a 100 page litigation. Will the court overlook a drug case too with evidence and reinterpret the 25% FCT? Please try not to reason with the anus.

I strongly suspect that the problem with igbo is they are used to only succeeding through crimes and dubious means such that even when in developed country they still commit crimes. There is a spiritual curse that follows anyone who commits crime unrepentantly or commit evil of any kind, the curse says such people and their generations will only succeed in life by commiting crimes or doing evil, they will be cut off from the original success and glory of God unless a particular member of that family seek God in an exceptional way and gets delivered.
The curse will make them to resist anything that might give them legitimate success or glory with all their being and turn away from the right way at all times,
that is why they prefer this man👇👇👇

Delivering the lead judgment, Justice Abundaga, who agreed with the submissions of lawyers to the respondents, including Thomas Ojo of Lateef Fagbemi and Co, described the PDP as a busy body, who dabbled into issues that were internal affairs of the APC.

Now you people will understand that who God has blessed no man can curse. Obi should immediately withdraw his petition and beg for trying to dabaru Nigeria.
