Dude, do not ridicule yourself publicly in an attempt to come off as intelligent. How about providing evidence to show that the information provided is incorrect?.

Look, it does not always have to be contentious if Tinubu's name is mentioned. A man resigned and gave his reasons. He is entitled to that feeling and opinion. Period.

You are an OLODO.
The burden of proof rests on the claimant.
You can not disprove what hasn't been proven.

Now let me teach you because it's obvious you didn't acquire a good education.

The burden of proof is always on the person making an assertion or proposition. Shifting the burden of proof, a special case of argumentum ad ignorantium, is the fallacy of putting the burden of proof on the person who denies or questions the assertion being made. The source of the fallacy is the assumption that something is true unless proven otherwise.

The person making a negative claim cannot logically prove nonexistence. And here's why: to know that a X does not exist would require a perfect knowledge of all things (omniscience). To attain this knowledge would require simultaneous access to all parts of the world and beyond (omnipresence). Therefore, to be certain of the claim that X does not exist one would have to possess abilities that are non-existent. Obviously, mankind's limited nature precludes these special abilities. The claim that X does not exist is therefore unjustifiable. As logician Mortimer Adler has pointed out, the attempt to prove a universal negative is a self- defeating proposition. These claims are "worldwide existential negatives." They are only a small class of all possible negatives. They cannot be established by direct observation because no single human observer can cover the whole earth at one time in order to declare by personal authority that any “X” doesn't exist.

From X, which is the assertion, is not yet disproved. Therefore, X.

This is a Fallacy. If X is unproven, then it is unproven and remains unproven until reason and evidence is provided or secured to establish the proof or high probability of the claim being true..

You are daft and I teach dullards because I hate stupidity.

[quote author=00FFT00 post=124532650]Justice Ugo Resigns, Citing Demands to 'Kneecap' Democracy, Says 'Siding with Tinubu' Would Mean 'The Death of Nigeria's Democracy

In a shocking and unprecedented move, Nigerian Justice Boloukuoromo M. Ugo has resigned from the bench, citing demands from the executive branch that he believes would destroy the country's democracy.

In a statement, Justice Ugo said that siding with the government on this matter would be the 'death of Nigeria's democracy', and that he could not in good conscience remain silent. His resignation has sent shockwaves through the country and raised serious questions about the state of Nigeria's democratic institutions.

According to Justice Ugo's statement, he was asked to 'cripple the independence of the judiciary' by ruling in favor of a certain political candidate, whom he did not name but is widely believed to be Bola Tinubu.

As much as we want the rule of law to have its cause, i'd prefer that we always confirm the source of information very well before spreading irrespective of who it is for or against. I have had to check a number of sites to be sure of this but they all show that this information is not accurate.

Besides this, he was said to have been asked to suppress evidence and dismiss cases that could impact the election. Justice Ugo's resignation has caused a serious uproar and a setback to the activities of the Presidential Election Petition Court.

UPDATE: JUSTICE UGO YET TO RESIGN DESPITE PRESSURE

Justice Boloukuoromo M. UGO of the Presidential Elections Petition Tribunal is yet to resign despite pressure being mounted for him and two others to do so, according to new information available this morning.

Tinubu and his team are working hard to threaten them to get one or two to resign so that the panel will be bereft of jurisdiction at this stage. This will lead to replacement and retrieval denovo.

In which case, it will be statute barred outside the 180 days stipulated by the constitution and the end of the matter because the Supreme Court cannot extend the time. This is what they are working on to achieve.
