FCT doesn't enjoy special status cannot be an interpretation on the clause of the law. They are expected to interpret what the content of the law says and not play emotional interpretation. Thankfully the supreme court is still there, I will advise PDP and LP supporters to maintain decorum and be peaceful and never take law into their own hand. They should be in high spirit because Appeal Court is not the end, all gray areas will be looked into at the supreme court.

The constitution in section 299 states that:
The provisions of this constitution SHALL APPLY to the federal capital territory as if it were one of the states of the federation....

The drafters of the constitution only stress what the rule of law is all about which is EQUALITY BEFORE THE LAW. All Nigerians are equal and treated in the similar way by the constitution.

I there by declare the tribunal void. Nigeria judicial system incompetent. The 2023 presidential election is unacceptable. And can never be taken by well meaning Nigerians. That's it.

I live in Abuja and I know I don’t have 2 heads. How educated people convinced themselves that people who live in Abuja have an electoral value above Nigerians living in other parts of the federation is still a mystery to me. Delusion should normally not trump logic and common sense.

My people , what's going on here oh ? ! All these tribunal verdict landing with the force of of which only iroko tree and timber can produce .
25% = o lu'le pi !
Drug case = o lu'le pi
Even a whole FCT Abuja that boast of zuma rock ! = o lu'le pi , o shatter !

We tried to warn them , AKANBI no be their fathers' mate , both living and immortalized . That similarity in Qater's 2022 world cup logo and tinubu's infinity logo should have given those born to hate tinubu mob a clue the moment he said " emi lokan " , but no , they'd rather choose an ekuke to race a thoroughbred .

The election was rigged ? Again , Like Tinubu like MESSI ! Just like Odeysseus , Akanbi has zoomed well past where they said he will never reach . Great is great , never under-rate greatness .

You all should enjoy your "LU'LEpop'" alone plenty .more to go round .

Section 299 stated clearly that FCT should be treated like a state for all constitutional matter but you guys simply prefer to see only what you want to see.

That is in administration my brother go and read the heading of that section. The judge didn't even make reference to your quoted section but only said FCT doesn't enjoy special status. Please in your own educational mind, should that be the answer to the interpretation of law. If the judges had explicitly interpreted the section and then go further to quote the one you quoted here that would have made more meaning than just saying FCT doesn't enjoy special status. It makes no sense to any discerning mind that want truth to be upheld. He only interpreted it based on his emotional mind and not on the point of law. I listened to Rtd Justice Robert Clark one day how he interpreted that section, it makes more meaning than what the tribunal gave as an answer to simple interpretation of Clause.

The person that tells you to go to court has his brother as the judge

Let us all stop complaining, Nigeria has Oti lo. Relax and enjoy the nice ride jagaban is about to give us. Let's support everything he does.

But as for today, tinubu will be confirmed president while judges smile to bank to enjoy their billions

Section 299 - “The provision of this constitution shall apply to the Federal Capital Territory, Abuja as if it were one of the States of the Federation…”

How you guys convinced yourselves that this section applies only to the administration of the FCT is both amusing and disingenuous. The section applies to everything about the constitution that relates to FCT. FCT is like just any other state and will always be traded as such. It is only empty emotions devoid of logic and common sense that would make people argue that FCT residents have a special status and can therefore veto the vote of the rest of the federating states.

25% my foot ! We can as well be conducting presidential elections in Abuja only then ! Are the Abuja residents paying 25% more on tax or what exactly makes them more Nigerians than those in Ijebu Ode or Yelwa Yauri ? And one Mumu thinks he can use this abracadabra to get to Aso Rock,that stupidity level is amazing !

[quote author=Racoon post=125618631][/quote]A good,sensible and sane precedence.
It would have been disastrous if they have ruled otherwise.
It will mean that all the other states and the people in them are inferior to FCT and the people living there.
Abuja people would be superhumans with enormous voting power.
Abuja will become the main battle ground whe.e the politicians will do anything to win.
