If that is the case then Biafra should be allowed to secede so that you all can remain in your indivisible one Nigeria

Same case with gov umo eno over fake and forgged WAEC Certificate. If umo eno does not go, then I will come to conclusion that judiciary in Nigeria that was the last hope of the common man has now turned to be the assuerd hope of politicians.
Umo Eno has a case? Can you please throw more light on it?

Shameful !!

Why can't INEC with all the money they give them during election investigate simply issues like this?

What stops them from having one person in their offices in each state tasked with verification of documents from prospective candidates?

Verify from WAEC, NECO, JAMB, NYSC etc.. and request expedite response from them

Alot of this post election wahala would stop even before the election..

Elections Tribunal is sui generis.... A special Court, immunity doesn't happen there.

Bayelsa Deputy-Governor, Lawrence Oborawharievwo Ewhrudjakpo was summoned by the Tribunal in Abuja after allegations that he didn't graduate from UST.

He was present, Mbah can only postpone his going there but he MUST.
Thank you

*MBA ...should appear at the Tribunal and tell Nigerians why he refused to serve and how he got his NYSC Certifications.
Then go back to his office on Monday and Honorably resign and hand himself over to PRISONS @ ENUGU STATE CORRECTIONS CENTER located at OLD PACK ENUGU*.

This position is wrong, the constitution of Nigeria which is the ground norm confers immunity on the governor for all intents and purposes.

What you should ask yourself is what will happen if Mbah refuses to appear? Ofcourse nothing as the court cannot order his arrest

So the order of the court is null and void and of no effect whatsoever, it is strictly at Mbahs discretion to appear or not

Your position is wrong....

Our Courts have re-echoed this severally... A GOVERNOR HAS NO IMMUNITY IN ELECTION PETITION CASES

Alliance for Democracy v Peter Ayodele Fayose (2004) - Appeal Court
A person declared and sworn-in as the Governor-elect can be sued by an appropriate party to challenge the declaration. If the person is said to be immuned under section 308 of the 1999 Constitution, the resultant effect is that once a person is declared and sworn-in as Governor-elect, that ends the matter, and no one can complain or take any legal action even if the person conducted any gross election malpractices. This will encourage gross wrongful and illegal activities among the parties contesting for the position, and negate the spirit and necessary intendment of the Constitution and hence destroy democracy.


Supreme Court in I.M.B. Securities v Bola Ahmed Tinubu (2001)

The provision of section 308 of the 1999 Constitution is not applicable to confer immunity on a State Governor in an election petition challenging his election as to preclude the issuance of subpoena on him. The immunity provided by the provision of section 308 of the 1999 Constitution on a State Governor is put in abeyance when his election is being disputed before an election tribunal as to make him subject to being compelled by a subpoena to tender document(s) or give evidence before the election tribunal.

The provision of section 308 of the 1999 Constitution is applicable to ordinary civil proceedings and criminal proceedings and not in election related matter. Therefore, in an election petition, being a special proceeding, completely divorced and separated from civil proceedings, a Governor or any occupant of the office mentioned in section 308 of the 1999 Constitution does not enjoy immunity.

In other words, a Governor is not immune from legal proceedings against him in respect of an election petition.
