Breaking: Court To Hear Perjury Suit Seeking To Stop Tinubu’s Inauguration. by Penguin2: 7:06pm On May 22, 2023
There seems to be no no rest for the ‘president elect’ as just as news is filtering in that the Supreme Court has fixed May 26 to give judgment on the double nomination suit challenging his qualification for the just concluded elections, another court, a Federal High Court, will on Tuesday hear a perjury suit filed against him which is equally seeking his disqualification and the halting of May 29th inauguration.

Federal High Court Sitting in Abuja will on Tuesday hear suit by concerned Nigerians seeking to halt the scheduled swearing-in of All Progressives Congress (APC) Presidential Candidate, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, as Nigeria’s new President on May 29 for lying on oath.

This is even as another Federal High Court will consider suit seeking to declare that Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) failed to comply with electoral laws in the Feb. 25 presidential election.


While the suit on perjury against Tinubu’ will be held in Court 9, the second suit is requesting from Court to declare that INEC failed to comply with Electoral Laws during Presidential Election will be heard in Court 5.

Fidelity Leaderboard
In the suit on Perjury, Concerned Nigerians had in a motion ex-parte filed last week alongside the suit marked FHC/ABJ/C5/567/2023 alleged that Tinubu, who was declared President-elect by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), lied on oath about his possession of a Guinean Passport.

The concerned Nigerians who filed the suit are Praise Ilemona Isaiah, Pastor Paul Isaac Ausu and Dr Anongu Moses.

The defendants are the President of Federal Republic of Nigeria, Bola Tinubu, All Progressives Congress, Attorney-General of the Federation, Director-General of the Department of State Service, Inspector General of Police, and Independent National Electoral Commission.


The concerned Nigerians are seeking an order of the court to nullify Tinubu’s candidacy in the February 25 presidential election.

They are also seeking an order restraining President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria from swearing-in Tinubu.

The litigants are making the following demands:

“A DECLARATION that the deliberate, wilful and false information deposed to by the 2nd defendant in FORM EC9 of the 7th defendant wherein he stated that he is a not a citizen of another country apart from Nigeria, contrary to the fact that he is also a citizen of The Republic of Guinea, is a criminal offense capable of preventing the 2nd defendant from being sworn in as the President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.

“AN ORDER of this Honourable Court nullifying the candidacy of the 2nd defendant as fielded by the 3rd defendant as its political party flag bearer for the presidential election of the 25th of February 2023.

“AN ORDER of this Honourable Court restraining the 1st defendant from allowing the swearing in of the 2nd defendant as President, Federal Republic of Nigeria, and directing the 1st defendant to ensure by all the powers within his disposal that the 2nd defendant is not sworn in, into the office of the President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria for wilfully, deceptively and deliberately misleading the 7th defendant and telling lies on oath.

Another waste of time

Names of the concerned Nigerians that filed the suite "Praise Ilemona Isaiah, Pastor Paul Isaac Ausu and Dr Anongu Moses."


Guinea Government already issued a statement that Tinubu was never a citizen of their country... He was issued a diplomatic passport in Lagos to represent Guinea Government on a diplomatic engagement

Diplomatic Passport and also Service Passport do not require Citizenship

So Guinea Government issued him a diplomatic passport as what?

Can you cite a precedent where someone has held the passport of a country without being the citizen of that country? Wouldn’t that amount to even a more criminal offense?

That's not a criminal offense, Dominican Republic and even Cyprus an EU country all have Golden Visa scheme where wealthy people get Service and Diplomatic Passport for business purposes in their country but can't have any benefits of a citizen like participating in elections

Allison Madueke, Hush puppy both have such Passport

Dangote has African Union Diplomatic passport issued by AU to only few individuals

Is AU a country? AU passport doesn’t come into this at all.

And you cannot also use Dominican Republic 🇩🇴 as an example because that’s a country that is notorious for selling Diplomatic Passport to someone who has money.

Tinubu acquired Guinean citizenship and he will go in for it.

First saw this news on David Hundeyin’s twitter page with an additional report that our 'resident-select' is pressuring the presidency to declare that day a public holiday so the courts can’t sit! The report also alleged that our fine young resident-select has at the same time earmarked N100 billion for the judges because there is no permutation that’ll see any judgement on that day in his favor. Now I choose to take every news with a pinch of salt, but I still understand that in this obodo Nigeria, there’s no smoke without fire! cool

Google what Service Passport means , Google what Diplomatic Passport means

Google the different types of International Passport and their requirements

Stop trying to cloak crime in ambiguities.

Diplomatic Passports are given by countries to citizens who have been appointed to privileged diplomatic positions.

To have a diplomatic passport of any nation, you must first acquire the citizenship of that nation.

What this means is that Dieziani and co, who have diplomatic passports of Dominican Republic, are citizens of Dominican Republic.

Being in possession of the passport of a country that you are not a citizen of is an international criminal offense.

Or can you remind me why Sunday Igboho was arrested in Benin Republic again?

That Business Day report was written by an Agbado lawyer who wanted to just find a way to exonerate Tinubu. That’s why no other reputable news platform could publish the nonsense he wrote because they know it’s falsehood. Stop listening to, or taking such, characters as authority. They will only end up leading you into ignorance.

Find below, the take of different reputable platforms on what Diplomatic Passport means; from CNN to Wikipedia, etc.

I want to emphatically state to you that only an indigene of a country can possess the country’s passport.

If Mandela and his co anti-apartheid elements had Nigeria’s Diplomatic Passport, then it simply means Nigeria conferred them with citizenship; which is why Mandiba remained ever grateful to Nigeria until his death.

Stop trying to enforce falsehood as truth. You are not dealing with kindergartens in Ogbomoso.

Bro,
I understand you either love Tinubu very much or you love APC very much, which is ok... but for the sake of common reason, this is really ridiculous.

Like did you read what you even wrote?
Even if you were told this, can't you independently think?

It's better if you had simply said it's not true, but going ahead to quote this... mheeeen I wonder if someone is home.

Truly, defending Tinubu makes people look and sound retarrded.

On the part they wrote citizenship on the passport is it Nigerian or Guinean written?

Don't you know there are laws that surround citizenships and passport holders?
