It would seem that as usual, INEC was compromised so there was no intention to defend their ineptitude. How can 33 polling units witness be sufficient for dedcution of more than at more 6000 votes? Out of 1000 polling units, they called only 33 witnesses! Why is the election not declared inconclusive when margin of victory is 36k and canceled votes is 70k? fergie001: |

gigabyte13:the judgement was all about the allegations of unstamped ballots. The Guy was right, NNPP would win the appeal because APC's votes were not touched. Very funny judgement 🤣 |

ValarDoharis:Eureka! I didn't want to mention it but now you have said it, there you are. The margin of lead is even lower than 165k yet no inconclusive. The SC has mentioned it many times on the validity of those who were present when this violence or whatever was happening. Since it involves violence and all that, I didn't see the Nigeria Police as a Party to the suit or even to testify. They might be lucky but they have to be very very careful, they took it for granted until late July then ran to the Appeal Court for an interlocutory which was turned down. |

Why not do the presidential election petition this way. At least cancel some votes that were not eligible. And ordered rerun in some polling units. Nigeria my country. |

fergie001:You replied with knowledge not emotion! Kudos! These people have forgotten that court doesn't do investigations,its your lawyers or policemen that do that.Court only look at this evidence that come out of your lawyer investigations and judge based on it.If NNPP lawyer could not prove that APC ballots too were unstamped,that is their own cup of tea. 7 Likes 2 Shares |

Hand was the hand of Tinubu and voice was the voice of ganduje. That's my interpretation of the tribunal judgement. Osun tribunal's judgement easily came to mind. The ANPP man shouldn't even bother himself. He should rather concentrate on giving dividends of democracy to his people. |

DesChyko: U guys better know how law works. It’s not about emotions or beer palour arguments. If Apc challenged ur score, did u challenge theirs? Or u expects the court having cancelled invalid votes from NNPC’s score, they are duty bound to deduct unchallenged invalid votes from that of APC? It’s what u ask for that u would be considered and if proved, granted. 6 Likes |

fergie001: Thanks for your brilliant analysis. My take is that NNPP were overconfident about the issue of unstamped, unsigned, and undated ballot papers votes that all the 165,663 were for NNPP. The Electoral Law says it must be stamped, signed and dated by the INEC Presiding Officer except where "all parties agreed" it should be used without stamp, date, and signature. The question is, was there such agreement by all the parties? Even if there was such, it would be denied since it was not written. Now, NNPP were unserious about this ground of petition and it called only one witness who wasn't serious about the question. If APC had done similar thing where unstamped, unsigned, and undated ballot papers favoured the party NNPP never mentioned it all through. NNPP failed to expose APC rigging and as such, I don't see any magic in Appeal Court and Supreme Court bcoz new evidence wouldn't be admitted. Yes, NNPP is Kano and Kano is NNPP but I doubt if there would be any changes up to Supreme Court. Though we're people of sentiment but Court is a place of convincing evidences and not sentiment or entitlement or feelings. The judges sit in the Court waiting for litigants and the judges would base their judgement on information/ evidences supplied by the litigants. They would not go shopping for evidence for you. My views base on my little knowledge of Law. 6 Likes |

Ikaeniyan0: Some people analysing the judgement here, are either daft or lack common knowledge on how election petitions and evidence act work. First, there wont be anything like inconclusive election..What the tribunal dealt with, Invalid votes and not cancelled votes. The law only provided alibi for cancelled votes and invalid votes. Second: APC challenged NNPP invalid votes and the NNPP didn't... did they expect the Tribunal to deduct votes not challenged by the NNPP? Third: NNPP is not bound to introduce anything new in the appeal but only to spot errors of judgement. Conclusion: It will take more than threat for the NNPP to recover from this misery. Congratulations APC,! 7 Likes 3 Shares |

rolams:Gawuna didn't need to be a Party. The SC in Buhari & Ors v Obasanjo & 265 Ors ruled categorically that non-joinder of the Political Party does not invalidate the petition. Buhari had challenged OBJ's victory petitioning over 200 people without the PDP. 133(1) of the EA: An election petition may be presented by one or more of the following persons; A candidate in an election; or A political party that participated in the election. However, the tribunal's verdict was that Gawuna was winner but that was fundamentally wrong, it should have been to the Petitioner. 1 Like |

What's the correlation between failure to stamp, sign, and date the ballot papers, and transmission of results? My guy, speak to the topic. 4 Likes 1 Share |
