Section 66(1)(a) of the Constitution of the Federal Republic,1999,(As Amended ), is clear and unambiguous that a person who voluntarily acquires the Citizenship of another Country, who is a Citizen of Nigeria by birth is not eligible for elections.

It is my submission that the operative word here is “voluntarily acquire the Citizenship of another Country”.

So you can be a dual Citizen of Nigeria by birth . That is to say you are born in another country and at the same time , one of your parents or grand parents is indigenous to a Community in Nigeria.This is the category of dual citizens that can not be caught by Section 66(1) of the Constitution.

Section 66(1) is clear and unambiguous and should interpreted literally as expected by the literal cannon of interpretation.
Section 28 only says you will not forfeit your Citizenship,but by the provisions of Section 66(1) of the Constitution you can not contest.In the United States ,if you are not born in the United States you cannot contest for the Presidency. It does not detract from your Citizenship. So,the argument that Section 28 of gives you leverage to contest is not tenable as the being a Citizen simpli cita ,does not qualify you to contest ,except you meet other pre-requisites and one of the pre-requisites is as stated in Section 66 (1) of the Constitution.

The Provisions of the Constitution finds expression in Section 66 (1) which prohibits a person who voluntarily acquires the Citizenship of another Country from elective Office.

The cases of Ogbeide v. Osula and Labour Party v. Ishola, referred to by some analysts are Court of Appeal decisions. The Supreme Court had decided in Ucha v. Onwe (2011) that voluntary acquisition of citizenship of another Country , prohibits you from elective Office in tandem with Section 66(1)(a) of the Constitution of the Federal Republic 1999,(As Amended ).
This remains the Law according to the legal principle and tradition of following Staris Decisis (Judicial Precedence).

I think at this material time, the APC need to call The LP to a round table discussion, a give and take agreement should be put forward. The terms of the agreement will be either the APC and Tinubu agree to relinquish Lagos State to the LP and retain the presidency or the relinquish the presidency to they LP and retain Lagos State.

Failure to put these forward will certainly lead to the APC and Tinubu losing both the presidency and the Lagos State puting into consideration the avalanche of indicting documents against the APC both at presidential and lagos State gubernatorial election tribunal.


Stop living in fool's paradise, everything you are saying here is your hopeless imagination, it won't happen.

Tinubu is not losing the presidency and Sanwo-olu is not losing the governorship, get that into your f1at head.

Lol!

Isn’t it hypocritical and ironic that you are here defending Hamzat and claiming that his US Citizenship does not render him incapable of ruling Lagos, but same you people said GRV, another Omoluabi, cannot rule Lagos because he married an Igbo woman.

How hypocritical can you guys be?

They said GRV can’t rule because the fuul is a chronic Yoruba hater and a demagogue.

Osun is more conservative Yoruba than most other state but yet, one of Adeleke wife is Igbo and you won’t see anyone saying he can’t rule.

Oyo state voted Makinde with Ijaw wife and no one cry about that. It’s because those guys show the Yoruba ethos.

Chinedu sits on Twitter daily looking for post that denigrate Yoruba tribe and still think Yorubas should give him the mantle.

Lastly, isn’t it hypocritical that you Igbos that claimed the new Naval chief Ikechukwu Igalla is not “deep Igbo” few days ago are here condemning Yoruba for trashing Gbadebo with their vote?

Wonderful . This is getting more interesting . What if he renounced his American citizenship and reclaimed his Nigerian origins ? You know anything is possible in Nigeria 🤣🤣🤣🤣

That is his only hope, except no certified true document can be brought to the tribunal or a court of competent jurisdiction because you need documents to prove your case.

Otherwise, say to Sanwo Olu and Hamzat.......Oya Sope Otilo

Don’t think the assembly members will decamp to LP with Tinubu as President, they will impeached gbadebo in less than a minute and frustrate his life
Impeachment is not as easy as you just said. To impeach a governor there must be very reason for it, you don't just impeach a governor because you don't like him lol.

Dual Citizenship, Explained

What is dual citizenship?
Dual citizenship —or dual nationality— is when you are a citizen of two different countries at the same time. In the context of the U.S., it means you’re both a U.S. citizen and a citizen of another country. Not every country allows dual citizenship, and the rules vary among those that do.

Does the United States allow dual citizenship?
Yes, the U.S. allows dual citizenship by default. The government does not require naturalized U.S. citizens to give up their citizenship in their country of origin.
Although the Oath of Allegiance to the United States speaks of renouncing “allegiance and fidelity” to other nations, U.S. immigration law does not explicitly address the topic of dual citizenship. The best summarization of the U.S. government’s position on dual citizenship lies in a U.S. Supreme Court opinion, which explains that “a person may have and exercise rights of nationality in two countries and be subject to the responsibilities of both.” The U.S. Department of State also has a more technical discussion of dual citizenship.

The Hamzat naturalization argument is mere distraction and empty noise. That a Nigerian whose citizenship is by birth cannot lose the rights of a citizen is a settled case. Funny enough, the precedent was even in a case involving LP.

LABOUR PARTY & ORS v. ISHOLA & ORS (2014) LPELR-24386(CA)

“… when a Nigerian by Naturalisation or Registration acquires the citizenship of another country he loses his right as a naturalized Nigeria. Such a person would not be able to contest any election into any elative office in Nigeria. However, a Nigerian by birth who thereafter acquires the citizenship of another country i.e. America as in the instant case does not lose his right to vie for any elective office in Nigeria being a citizen by birth and not by naturalization or registration.” Per, MUDASHIRU NASIRU ONIYANGI ,J.C.A ( Pp. 18-23, paras. F-A )



The leadership of Lagos state and Nigeria will never ever be allowed to slip into the hands of incompetent, hate filled and divisive characters that make up the Labour Party. Never!

And there was even a precedent before this case that had the exact same judgement. Bukola Saraki was taken to court for being a british citizen and he won, because his parents are Nigerian.

Receive sense na.

We are talking of being eligible for an elective position and not being a Nigerian. Of course Femi Hamzat remains a Nigerian, but has voluntarily sworn allegiance to another country.

when a governor is impeached his deputy takes over, and you can't just impeach a gov for no reason, he can file a suit against that, I don't see how that favours apc you can make his govt difficult but it doesn't returns power to sanwo olu and apc.

Atiku was about whether he is a natural citizen, while Hamzat speaks to renunciation and voluntary allegiance to an entity foreign to Nigeria.
