Glad you mentioned rules and regulations, now tell me what Clause 48(c) allows? How about the Electoral Act itself? Read Clause 93 and enlighten yourself!

The rules and regulations of INEC are an extension of the electoral act and holds as much authority and is binding just like the act!
This is as clear as daylight!
What does clause 93 of the rules and regulations of INEC say?
This talks specifically about collation!
How is collation related to the authenticity and power of the rules and regulations of inec?

9jaRealist:
Nairaland seems determined to sink deeper into the GUTTER of dog-whistling bigotry…

The Ibo (which is the whistle here) journalist Ijeoma did NOT testify “for” Peter Obi…
Rather she was SUBPOENAED (ie, ORDERED by the court) to testify AT the hearing re facts pertinent to the case.

Accordingly, the OP’s thread heading was (at best) IGNORANT or (at worst) crudely MISCHIEVOUS!

Exactly

Escapist:
'Transmitted' does not mean it has to be electronically transmitted.

Have you read the rules and regulations of INEC which is an extension of the electoral act and commands the same power and authority?

abbey621:
Is INEC chairman, the Electoral Act? Man can promise you heaven and earth but if it is not documented na ofutufete, LAMBA! I suggest make una read the Electoral Act which gives alternatives to coalition of results when technological or unforeseen acts occur. It is up to LP to prove that technological glitch did not occur or that it was not beyond INEC's control......MISSION IMPOSSIBLE

It was not just said,it was also documented as rules and regulations of INEC which is an extension of the electoral act and holds as much power and binding authority!

The amended electoral act 2022 gave INEC the power to choose its mode of transmission which will be binding with equal authority that the act holds!

INEC made an extended law referred to as rules and guidelines which was publicly announced by the INEC chairman at different forums where the mode of transmission was made known and documented with procedures clearly spelt out during the conduct of the election!

In the rules and guidelines, INEC chose its primary mode of transmission which is electronic transmission of results from the polling unit to a database which will be viewed by citizens from the IREV!

Its that simple!

Now if INEC discovered that its primary choice won't materialize due to acclaimed or perceived external forces, they are not only supposed to inform the parties involved but also postpone the election to a date where it would be possible to conduct such election!

If INEC found out it was unable to proceed with their primary choice,they should inform parties involved and choose a different mode of transmission by rewriting a totally different rules and regulations!

This was the path INEC should have taken if they were truly independent and wanted transparency!


Some unschooled folks here have argued that INEC reserves the choice to change the laws as much as possible even during the conduct of the election but such arguments are not only hilarious but illogical!
The rules and regulations made by INEC are as powerful as the electoral act itself!
Those who opine that INEC can decide to alter a LAW at its own will is either ignorant or just being mischievous!

aswani:
Osamor, while being cross-examined by APC counsel, Abiodun Owonikoko, avowed that INEC chairman, Prof. Mahmood Yakubu, said the results of the Feb. 25 presidential election would be transmitted live.

So instead of providing proof of his votes that were giving to other candidates, we are focusing on someone saying the election results would be transmitted live.

So this is the stolen mandate that Obidients have been shouting upandan, the fact that elections were not transmitted live.

No figures to compare with officially declared figures, just random journalists saying they heard that the results will be transmitted live.

I understand why Obi's SANs are proceeding on this basis anyway, they have families to feed and things are tough for honest citizens in this country

Chai which kain sense way una get sef?
Can't you read and understand the content before reacting?
Osamor was called in as a witness not to tender any sort of results but to prove that there was no time the INEC chairman said there will be no electronic transmission of results!
She made this claim by stating that she had participated in all of the INEC chairman's meetings and engagements where the commission boss stated explicitly that there will be electronic transmission of results from the PU contrary to a frivolous publication by Tribune newspaper!

GeneralPula:
I don’t understand why Governor’s do find it hard to secure their state..

What does the constitution say about who is incharge of policing in a state?

Abi bandits never hear say there is a new balablu sherrif in town?

OP take my word,nothing will happen to emefiele!
Its just a normal procedure from BAT to hoodwink the ignorant into believing that he is working and on top of the situation!

Look at the former accountant general of the federation that embezzled over a 100 billion of which the last that was heard about him was that he wanted to forfeit 30billion for a lighter sentence,since then nothing has been heard from that case and that's how the matter died!

Same will happen in this case!

I repeat nothing will happen to the former CBN governor!

Which former president enabled anf aided him to continue his consistency in corruption?

OGHENAOGIE:
u don't have to be Igbo to be Ipob apologists ok... Besides the way obidients operate bullying those who don't support them using lies and crude propaganda in Ipob style... That's why Obi ll remain online president... LP is a regional party... Ok

You are not making a single sense!
In one hand you are calling them a regional party but going by the definition of region,it simply means LP is only concentrated in the east which based on results and victories gotten,that's not the case!
Abuja is not an eastern region
Nasarrawa is not an Eastern region
But Obi won there and NA members emanated from there!
Stop making a mockery of all the years you spent in school....its too embarrassing!
Haba!

OGHENAOGIE:
which Party de rule these states for gorvenor?? Ansa that and see that LP is going no where... It's a regional party simple

As usual intruding on a discus with zero comprehension!

He called Labour party an ipob party wing of which I asked if those nigerians in those states that voted for LP presidential election in Edo state or nasarrawa state or plateau state were also to be referred to by that tag!
Going by your inane analogy that LP is a regional party,how come they won NA sits in kaduna state,Lagos state,abuja,Edo state....or is Lagos a south eastern state?

I have told you before now not to jump into an argument if you know nothing about it!
Such intrusion makes you a glorified clod and buttinsky!

DOptical:
What else apart from ships. All of them fighthing over ship as usual 🤣 Na Ebuka go make me watch if I wan watch..

I think apart from the numerous ships that put me off, it was also the numerous entitlement and blandness too. I got interested a bit when the fake housemates were brought in. Adekunle and Chizzy spiced it a little but it was too late for me to see reason 🤣

Ok

Tatiana4u:
Amaka,Bryan,Chi chi and Chomzy will give us mad contents!
Lmao!
I can’t wait!

Omoh 19 June wan far ohh

sapele914:
Civilian coup plotters, want to reap where they did not sow? Waiver presidential candidate indeed.

Balderdash!
I guess thats what your whatsapp group admin told you to type!
Cos i doubt you even know what you are saying!

Its official! LP is now the new opposition party ahead of 'structure' PDP

How can a governorship candidate contest an election and present a forged certificate without any form of scrutiny by his own party or even the umpire,INEC?
In a better country where the laws are implemented without care for the personality involved,the likes of Mbah would not only be disqualified but also arrested and prosecuted for forgery!
The reason for such boldness is because most politicians in Nigeria have done worse things and got away with it!

A pot calling a kettle black!

Una don start with the praising singing!

Buhari was also praised for his 'body language' and 'body odour' with the inclusion of the tag 'the new sheriff in town' on his first 2 weeks as president!

Some even called buhari the older version of 'Jack Bauer' which according to them inflicted fear in bokoharam members

At this period 8 years ago,the same people hailed Buhari's body language for making power supply to be constant to the point that some imps here were posting iceblock from their fridge

We all know what happened afterwards!
How Buhari became the worst Nigerian president ever!

Today the same pattern is happening but some Nigerians as usual will never learn from their horrible past because they have enmeshed themselves in tribalism!

Teeroyzimma:
Adekunle and Sheggz face off

Kai to see two guys facing off over nothing dey somehow!

saintbillion:
No doubt the economy was crumbling. I can beat my hand on my chest that this man is going to be worse than the he goat emiefele. Mechanical Engineering, managing the economy. He will be seeing Nigeria economy like 1999 volvo engine. only in 9ja failed nation. Spit

Hmmmm this reunion sha

Vinnie2000:
No wonder. 😕

Trying to deceive us. 😒

Just because of 5mins conversation with Tinubu, he was Doing as if he Met Barack Obama or Sir Alex Ferguson.

Father lord

He may have a right as a private citizen to express his opinion about the current president but politically,he was so wrong and naive to have made such reckless statement esp when the presidential candidate of his party that was responsible for his victory is at the tribunal challenging the electoral process that brought in BAT!

yungzed360:
This is my girl. Our problems are she most times receives calls and chats with lots of guys and she lies to me alot, I've told her severally to stop and always tell me as it is, although I get angry very easily bt it would be better to digest the truth than lies cus it's hurt me a lot. So I've broken up with her many times and she sometimes swear never to come back again. But after a few days or weeks. She will come begging, calling and texting again and then I keep forgiven her.

Below is a screenshots of our most recent quarrels when she came back begging and the reason for the quarrel was she was at my house when another guy called again, and she couldnt tell the guy she was at her boyfriend's house even though the guy kept asking where she went, she only said she went out.

What exactly could be the problem?
Is it me? Is it her? I'm I too over protective or feeling insecure? Please guys what should I do?

You enabled this by easily forgiving her without any sort of laid down 'punishment' as a form of deterrence hence she keeps doing the same thing believing you will let her in every time she messes up!

SmartyPants:
There's a difference. Buhari signed a constitutional ammendment to make it possible for states to regulate power. But you sti need an Act to prescribe the specifics of how it will work.

What are the specifics that were not contained in the initial electricity act signed by buhari?

Acidosis:
Another electricity bill?

Balablu wan take bubu shine!
Cos I see no difference between what he signed and what was signed by buhari!

Rubyjade:
The Electricity Act was first passed in July 2022 under the Muhammadu Buhari administration.

Actually the electricity act was passed by the national assembly on the said date but buhari signed it into law on march 2023!

Buhari signs amended constitution to allow states generate, transmit electricity

The President, Major General Muhammadu Buhari (retd), has signed into law the constitutional amendment allowing states in the country to licence, generate, transmit, and distribute electricity.

This was made known in a tweet by the presidential media spokesperson, Tolu Ogunlesi, on Friday.

He tweeted, “President #MBuhari has signed 16 constitution amendment bills into law. By this signing, State Houses of Assembly & judiciaries now have constitutionally guaranteed financial independence, while railways have moved from Exclusive Legislative List to the concurrent list.

“Another landmark change: By virtue of the presidential assent, Nigerian states can now generate, transmit and distribute electricity in areas covered by the national grid. (This) wasn’t allowed pre-amendment. This is genuine, realistic restructuring — through the constitution.”

https://punchng.com/buhari-signs-amended-constitution-to-allow-states-generate-transmit-electricity/?amp

So I ask again what is the difference?
This act signed by bihari also gives states the authority to create their own regulatory body which can give license to private electricity companies!
