The creation of the 12 states instantly started the war. It also effectively abolished federalism in Nigeria uptill today.

And what about the decree made by Ironsi that introduced the unitary system? It entrenched federalism right?

"Akeredolu lamented that the state lost the Dangote Refinery Company to Lagos State, due to what he described as “lack of commitment” by the Olusegun Mimiko-led administration."

Akeredolu is right on this one. That Dangote refinery project was earlier earmarked for Ondo state. I dont know what happened that Dangote moved it to Lagos. And one can say Mimiko did not properly manage the issue.

Mimiko is PDP, Jonathan is PDP, and even at that, they could not convince Dangote to let the project commence in Ondo state as earlier earmarked.

The koko remains that the appeal court sat and heard proceedings on the substantive suit. Asking the supreme court to disband the panel does not mean the supreme court will grant it especially where it has no basis

Jegede should just go and relax. Nothing for him in this election. The election is between Olushola Oke and Akeredolu.

Other candidates Like Jimoh Ibrahim and Olu Agunloye will just act as spoilers for either candidate in the election and will make one person steal a close win.

Akeredolu might just win this just like Ajimobi of Oyo was able to win due to the participation of spoilers in the election.

FemiFaniKayode:
I love smart proactive attorneys that refuse to be intimidated by these 1930 big belly judges.

Jegede should go and fight to bring back our popular soap opera " new masquerade" and forget this. Daydream governorship ambition

"Justice Saulawa also cited the motion filed by the respondents before the Supreme Court on Thursday, asking for an order of the apex court to disband the Saulawa panel and take disciplinary action by going ahead to hear the appeal in defiance of established judicial principle."

A lot of arguments were put forward on why the Appeal court panel was not supposed to proceed with the case after being notified of an appeal at the Supreme court, but they still went ahead. Now the smart lawyer is even seeking to have them sanctioned for proceeding with the case. I guess those who earlier argued that the Appeal court was supposed to stay action on the case were right. Folks like kahal29, Seunmsg et. al.

Ignorant pocket lawyer. What happened today. Some of you are just too silly to know when to shut up in defense of idiocy.

You are obviously an illiterate with herd mentality of cows. You jumped into a discussion which is above your thinking faculty, and you are still justifying your ignorance.

If you have any comprehension ability, you may need to go back and check what I wrote and juxtapose with later events and tell me where I specifically stated that the case will not continue.

I only tried to educate ignorant folks like you on the difference between criminal and civil case, and why it is erroneous to be using criminal case rules to predict what will happen in a civil case.

For your information, the case has been adjourned indefinitely till Supreme court sits on the interlocutory appeal.

BERNIMOORE:
can you now see what i predicted? the supreme court notice had to be considered in its merits by the lower court and not just stops the lower court automatically. anyway peace!

I never told you otherwise. I only told you that you cannot use a criminal law to argue a civil case. Did I ever tell you that notice of appeal is as good as the court granting the appeal and staying proceedings? Kindly show me where I said so.

You later changed the premise of your argument when you realised that your initial points were faulty.

At first, you quoted the Administration of Criminal Justice Act 2015 to explain the scenario and claim because of that, appeals of preliminary matters will not be entertained by the supreme court and stay of proceedings at the lower court granted, but that the case will run fully, you even cited Saraki's case.

That is wrong. I corrected you by telling you that the case in question was a civil case and as such, using the ACJA 2015 which is for criminal matters to prove a point is erroneous. Saraki's case is a criminal case.

Have you forgotten that I posted this for you when you were talking about ACJA 2015 :

agabusta:
Oga relax na. I quoted both you and engineer boat.

Even if the case continues or does not continue tomorrow, it has nothing to do with what you put up there.

The premise of your argument is seriously flawed. The case in question is not a criminal case.

It was when you realised you were wrong on your first premise that you now abandoned using the ACJA 2015 to argue and then used another authority by citing a case.

After u changed the initial grounds of your argument, did I come back to counter you??

I already told you, that the continuation of the case has nothing to do with your initial argument of using ACJA 2015 cum Saraki's case at CCT as an example.

It was after you realised your errors that u decided to appropriately research and then come up with new points, which were not disproved by me.

Justice Saulawa says the duty of the court is to do justice to all. He says his panel owes it as duty to hear Ibrahim's motion 1st.

This is as a result of Nwofor SAN (Poroye lawyer) trying to stop Jimoh lawyer from presenting his motion

Thank you for the updates.

I guess Poroye's lawyer and Ibrahim's lawyer are just acting a pre-planned script.

They are both of the same sides, but forming adversaries in court just to delay the court processes.

Nigeria's legal system needs serious overhaul.

BERNIMOORE:
JEGEDE'S APPEAL WILL BE HEARD TOMORROW 9.pm

Due to these facts below which renders Notice ineffective because of the time restrains which does not favour the jimoh ibrahim/poroye camp.

Act of 2015, section 306 provides

“[size=12pt]An application for stay of proceedings in respect of a criminal matter before the court shall not be entertained. In essence, proceeding at a lower court will continue not withstanding a pending appeal before a superior court

''A Notice of Appeal does not automatically stay the proceedings of a court whose decision is being challenged at a superior court.

In order for a lower court to stay proceedings before it on the grounds that a party is challenging its decision at a superior court,

Notice of appeal today 15th November below is not ripe to stop tommorrows appeal hearing and subsequent judgement.

This has already been posted for your information.

agabusta:
Oga this is not a criminal case.

You are trying to be smart, but it turned out to be an epic flop.

Instead of you to quote the law you are citing fully, you only wrote "Act of 2015, section 306 provides "

Which Act are you talking about??

Now let me help you.

The Act you are talking about is the ACJA 2015, the Administration of Criminal Justice Act 2015.

But sorry, the case in question is not a criminal case and so does not apply.

Now as per this...

engineerboat:
The ACJA, 2015 in Section 396 (2) provides thus:

“(2) After the plea has been taken, the defendant may raise any objection to the validity of the charge or the information at any time before the judgment provided that such objection shall only be considered along with the substantive issues and a ruling thereon made at the time of delivery of judgment”

What this portends in essence is that a defendant is at liberty to file as many objections as he wants but the objections shall be heard alongside the substantive matter and the ruling on same delivered with the judgment. If there is no ruling during the pendency of the matter, I ask us all seated, how can interlocutory appeal arise? How then will the issue of stay of proceedings pending appeal come up?

This is a particular procedure that is used regularly in election matters and I can testify that it is one of the provisions in the 1st Schedule to the Electoral Act that has made it possible for the time lines provided for election matters to be achievable.

Furthermore, the Act expressly provides in Section 306 that

“An application for stay of proceedings in respect of criminal matter before the court shall not be entertained”

With this brilliant provision, the ACJA, 2015 has effectively taken care of delays in hearing and dispensing of justice in criminal matters.

I refer us all to Section 306 and 396 of the ACJA, 2015 which, in my opinion, are bombshells that have effectively taken care of delay tactics by legal practitioners in criminal matters.

Furthermore, according to Section 396 (7) of the ACJA, 2015, the elevation of a High Court Judge to the Court of Appeal will no longer delay criminal trial as the Judge shall have dispensation to continue to sit in the lower court only for the purpose of concluding any part-heard criminal matter pending before him/her at the time of the elevation and shall conclude the same within a reasonable time.

Engineerboat I assumed you are a lawyer with the way you have been following this case and giving live reports from the courtroom.

Please why are you bringing ACJA 2015 into this case?

Is the case a criminal case??

I highlighted some parts of your post I quoted. There was a mention of "Plea taking" which I highlighted for your attention.

Was any plea taken during this case??
cheesy

Who is facing charges?? And who took the "guilty/not guilty" plea??

All i see here are lies, you counted 1.2b for 10days? Thats two weeks without doing another thing in that branch? Or they only counted 100k/day ni? Anyway, i know you are lying but continue.

Try and analyse the matter before running into conclusion.

He never stated that they didn't do anything in the branch during the period. If it's a busy branch, they have only 2 people to spare for the counting.

They can't shut down their operation because they want to count cash.

1.2billion to be counted in 10days equals 120million per day.

120million per day equals 120,000 notes of 1000naira or 1200bundles.

120million per day equals 240,000 notes of 500naira or 2400bundles.

It is possible to use 10days to count such cash, but also very possible to count in lesser days if they have more hands and they are not bothered by other matters.
