how pls bro drop sentiment and read the information very well. As it stands now, APC has no national chairman according to the authentic information
You are not interpreting the judgement accurately, maybe because of sentiments.

The court ruling on which basis Geidom secured an High court order to take over has been vacated by an higher court.

Therefore, any ruling/action/inaction related to that intial FCT High Court ruling has become null void consequent to the Appeal Court ruling.

This is not the time to seek for any useless reconciliation. Those guys went too far already in their quest to remove the chairman and destabilize the party. They must be expelled from the party so as to serve as a lesson to others.
....and let it be enshrined in the skulls of political office holders that the party is supreme!

It is only in Nigeria that party leaders will be treated as skum by political office holders because of majority of people's ass-licking attitude to those occupying supposedly 'enviable positions'.

Oshiomole has refused to do this ass-licking and wants the aberration reversed.

He is able to this because he has recently been in office as a successful 2-term gov and as someone who has a strong personality and also a disciplined politician.

Does the constitution of the party allow a ward suspend a National officer of the party?
I just tire. Nigerians are not naturally disposed to doing things the right way. So far an issue is in their favour, notwithstanding the anomaly in play, they will be supporting that course of action.

It is very obvious that the Anti-Oshiomole agents do not have the numbers to democratically remove him, but trust hypocritical Nigerians, they are going all over the internet supporting them, just because they don't like the man.

We have serious problem with the mentality of a lot of people in this country. We are not innately democratic.

Everybody just wants to have his/her way based on their personal disposition.

Sound prayers for the court.

After he succeeds at the Appeal Court, he needs to fire a petition to the NJC against that cheap FCT High Court Judge that gave those spurious and suspicious orders at the preliminary stages of the case without even putting the other party on notice.

I trust Oshiomole to do the needful. The mean leaves no stone unturned.

There should be a consequence for all these nonsense orders if our judiciary wants to redeem its pride.

As they feel the hour for a Southerner to become the President has come again, they are now proposing bills to put him under check. I expected Omo Agege to push for a better bill.

UPDATES: Supreme Court Hears Application For Review Of Judgment Sacking Lyon

https://www.channelstv.com/2020/02/26/updates-supreme-court-hears-application-for-review-of-judgment-sacking-lyon/


The Supreme Court is currently hearing the application for review of the judgment which sacked the governorship candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Bayelsa state, David Lyon and his deputy, Senator Biobarakuma Degi-Eremienyo.

The APC is seeking a reversal of the judgment which disqualified its candidate David Lyon.

Representing Mr Lyon and Degi-Eremienyo is Afe Babalola, who argued that the apex court has the power to set aside its earlier judgment.

He insisted that the application is not for a review of the judgment but to set aside the judgment sacking Mr Lyon who overwhelmingly won the election.

Mr Babalola added that the judgment of the court delivered on February 13, amounts to a denial of fair hearing.

Justice Sylvester Ngwuta is presiding and is being assisted by six other judges.

In his final submission, Mr Babalola urged the court to reverse its decision.

Also, Wole Olanipekun representing the APC is asking the apex court to set aside its February 13, 2020 judgment on the ground that the court had no jurisdiction to have entertained the appeal in the first place.

He explained that the suit was first filed at the Federal High Court as a pre-election matter, which is the foundation of the matter that made the appeal get to the apex court.

Mr Olanipekun, therefore, restated his argument that the apex court lacks the jurisdiction to entertain the matter.

He added that all humans are fallible so it is not beyond the apex court to make a mistake.

Mr Olanipekun also faulted the interpretation of the judgment of the court by INEC which issued a certificate of return to Senator Douye Diri of the PDP, urging the court to grant the application to set aside its earlier judgment.

Counsel to the PDP, Tayo Oyetibo argued that the application by David Lyon is an invitation to violate the nation’s constitution.

He added that it is also an invitation to the court to ‘sit in judgment’ over its earlier decision which must not be allowed while urging the court to summarily dismiss the application.

Mr Oyetoyibo argued that areas were well considered before the apex court arrived at its decision on February 13, insisting that the court cannot change the operative part of any judgment delivered by the apex court which is the final court in the land.

Citing section 22 of the Supreme Court act, Mr Oyetoyibo said “the court has wild powers to make any order including the order asking INEC to withdraw the certificate issued to David Lyon. The order made by the court was not out of order.”

He explained that the facts and justice of the case warranted the decision of the court and there is no error in it whatsoever.

He added that if any error is felt, it can only be addressed in a future case.

Mr Oyetibo insisted that the grant of this application will engender judicial stability as people will now wait for a possible review before acting on any judgment of the apex court.

He urged the court to dismiss the application and not to disturb the status quo.

Yunus Ustaz Usman who is representing Governor Douye Diri aligned himself with the submissions of Mr Oyetibo, insisting that the court cannot make any order outside the judgment, especially after a full-blown trial.

He reaffirmed the finality of the court as the highest of the land, urging the court to dismiss the application in the interest of the overall survival of the country.

Counsel to Bayelsa Deputy Governor, Mr Lawrence Ewhrudjakpo vehemently opposed the application for a review of the judgment of the apex court and urged the court to dismiss the applications filed by Mr Lyon and the APC for totally lacking in merit.

Chris Uche who is representing Mr Ewhrudjakpo argued that the Supreme court lacks the power to sit on appeal over any judgment delivered by the court.

He added that it is a case of outright abuse of court process, stating that the court must ‘jealously’ guard its judgments otherwise, there will be a floodgate of applications for review which will lead to a bastardization of the judicial process.

He urged the court to resist the dangerous invitation to violate the nation’s constitution.

Present to witness the proceeding is the National Chairman of the APC, Mr Adams Oshiomhole.

Also in the court is the incumbent governor of the state, Senator Douye Diri and the sacked deputy governor-elect, Biobarakuma Degi-Eremienyo.

The referee should have started counting immediately fury went down. You can use the timer on YouTube video to take count. You will notice it took fury 10 seconds to fully stand on his feet.
I guess the judges realised this and setteled this match as a draw, which is fair on both boxers. What a match.
The ref will only start counting after the boxer who scored the knockdown goes to his corner.
