Forget them. Which requirements are they talking about? The ones we know or others from foreign constitution. I thought he's lettered enough to know this. Always dishing out reckless utterances
In two weeks exactly, LP will hang Tinubu's portrait in their office.

When u hear these guys talk, u begin to wonder if they satisfied the requirements to be named winner or qualify for a rerun.
Out of 3 criteria, LP fulfilled only one, PDP fulfilled only one.
But LP believe the constitution should be followed to the latter, we are following the constitution that's why u are not named the winner.
By their words we know them; Why didn't you follow it before and during the elction?

When the real valid votes are counted and deducted from what the APC claim to have garnered, you will find out that the APC fulfilled non of the requirements to be named winner

Go and help INEC to count it. You better adjust yourself to the reality of Tinubu APC presidency or you relocate.

But Obi is a good leader in your eyes?
If Tinubu is a bàd lèàder and Obi a good leader, Obi will be living in Anambra not hiding under Tinubu in Lagos.

Your words make no sense. The fact that one doesn't stay in his state doesn't make him a bad leader. Is Tinubu from lagos state?

What's your point now?

If somebody defraud you and start living lavishly with your hard earned money, you will seat and clap for the person. Just because the person said come let's talk this out, they you start clapping. Let's assume an uncle collected a house that belongs to you because he was able to bribe the king. Then he's saying I will give you a 3bedroom flat to live all your life rent free. In reality, the house belongs to you. Does that mean you will accept?

LP got only 25% in Abuja.
No highest number of votes.
No 25% in 24 states.
PDP didn't even fulfill anyone.
Declaring any of these two winner is against the constitution.
25% in Abuja is not even a seperate or special requirement. It says 25% in 24 states and Abuja.
Having it in Abuja specifically is not a requirement.
The law didn't say 25% in 24 states and 25% in Abuja.

Sir with due respect but sir I remember you very well as one of the people that connived to rigged election some years back, sir is that also part of the democracy and the constitution to be lettered?

Sir, I remember you again to be the one that said LGBT should be "executed", sir, is that part of the democracy and the lettered constitution you are now talking about?

Sir do you think you are in right position to even mentioned democracy? Anyway, sir we have chosen the next president and we have moved on. Thanks.

I think he is referring to APC/Tinubu's election rigging, lack of required 25% of FCT votes among others. These are against the constitution.
is fct with 6 local government area is bigger than kano that have like 44 local government and akwa ibom with 33 local government and anambra state with 30 local government or osun state with 30 local government area. Very Dillard and stupid and sore lossers

Datti, who spoke on Monday at a conference organised by the Coalition of Nigerians living in the United Kingdom with theme; “Nigeria on Trial: Does Democracy Matter”? which took place in London on Monday, said democracy must be practised to the letter and that without adherenc to the constitution, there would be no democracy.

Amen! The constitution of Nigeria states that for a person to become the president of Nigeria, he or she must (1) win popular votes, (B) win 24 out of Nigeria 36 states and (3) has no less than 25% votes in the Nigerian capital, Abuja. Now, the record shows that Bola Tinubu only got 19 % votes in Abuja on the election. The constitution goes on to state that where no candidate has achieved the above requirement, the two top candidates must do runoff to decide the elected president. So far, Mr. Datti has not called for runoff between Bola Tinubu and Atiku Abubakar.

And here is section 134 of the 1999 of Nigerian on how to decide who has been duly elected president of Nigeria:
134

1. A candidate for an election to the office of President shall be deemed to
have been duly elected, where, there being only two candidates for the
electiona. he has the majority of votes cast at the election; and
b. he has not less than one-quarter of the votes cast at the election in
each of at least two-thirds of all the States in the Federation and
the Federal Capital Territory, Abuja.



Now, i want to know what Datti is planning to do if the election tribunal says that Tinubu won the presidency?

I seperated it since Obi supporters are using that as their lifeline.
It's actually 2/3 of the states and FCT that totals to 25 states.
Even 17 states, Obi couldn't get 25%

We had an election not a collection of property.
An election with requirements, requirements Obi and his party didn't meet, I never knew our election has become an inheritance that belongs to someone.
U want to be president of a country with about 50% Muslim and say this is a rèlîgîous wàr and u say the election belongs to u?
U want to rule a country with 6 geo political zones and u can't even win 3 of those zones and come to claim it belongs to u?
This is no house that someone collected from a king, this is an election, the earlier u know that ur emotióñs wón't turn the tide in ur favor, the better for u.

The problem we fàcè in our edûcàtîonaI systèms as a country is because the leaders doñ't have their children schooling here because they know they didn't build the edûcàtîonaI systèms, that's exactly what Obi is doing, he didn't build Anambra to the standard of living so he can't live there, to sell Obi in future elections, he should go back and start living in Anambra now.
Not milk Anambra dry, hide in Lagos and say u will transform Nigèria

If u had followed it before election, Obi won't be on the ballot, u don't become a party member in less than two weeks and become their càndidàte, constitution says 30 days.
If we follow constitution, Obi will just be an LP not a presidential candidate.

Whose job is to interpret that? Why are they in court? What does the constitution say if a person is declared winner, even if others are contesting it? When he rigged election in Bornu state as senator, was that constitutional to rig election? Was he not sworn in and enjoyed the stolen mandate for one year before he was booted out by the court? Yeye dey smell!!!

Followed to the latter as interpreted by who? Baba Datti Ahmed, Obi supporters or by the Courts? Who has the power to interprete the law in Nigeria? When u assume so much that u know whereas u don't know yet u are making noise all around, u are noting but a buffon. The courts would interprete the constitution not any of u

LP themselves did not meet the criteria to be declared winner.
obi himself and lp did not say he should be declared winner or he won the election, but why did inec not upload the result on it server as stipulated, Tinubu should be disqualified because of his drug case because there can be no forfeiture without a crime, 25% in abuja , dual citizenship, go to the constitution and see what it says about all these, I dnt do beer Pallor argument the constitution is clear, there is no way out that is why Babalawo Apapa is been used in as the last option, if anything is going to destroy or break Nigeria it’s apc alqaeda people’s congress.

They don't even qualify for a rerun.

Nobody met the criteria, PDP and APC should hold a rerun let's see who will win then.
