the Eze Igbo akure cannot be likened to an ambassador.he is more like the president of a social club.he cannot hold court in akure without the permission of the paramount ruler of akure in the person of the Deji of akure.the Igbo's in akure are visitors of the Deji of akure and while our constitution allows for freedom of movement and association,it doesn't allow freedom to supplant existing tradition. while I don't in any way condone violence,I think its necessary to let the Igbo's in akure know their place before they start to claim it as no mans land. |

Buchukwu:I have not found it necessary to respond to the continuous vituperation been spewed by proponents of the biafran movement.while there is a freedom to decide to secede,there is no freedom to create anarchy.why are the proponents of the movement scared of taking a referendum from within their own people?perhaps because most of them live and earn their living outside the region of the proposed Biafra.perhaps because the educated and enlightened Igbo brethren see the agitation as nothing but folly.perhaps because none of their political leaders support the agitation. I just can't seem to understand the reasoning of the illiterate ignoramuses that listen to that equally egoistic fellow they call director and then flood social media with error-filled innuendoes that only further portrays their lack of intelligence .anyone who wants to agitate for Biafra needs to relocate to igboland and from there start a lawful process.we saw the south Sudan scenario,we saw Scotland try and fail,Catalonia has began the process,why does this director resort to threats of violence and speeches of hatred?I even hear some folks want him to be the president of Biafra. goodluck to the few agitators but they'd be made to understand that threats of violence will not be made to stand |
Dieumerci:not the entire stretch.the government established a scheme which is the Ijanikin rose garden scheme phase I and II.however,ten hectare was released to the land owners and that bit of information can be confirmed from Alausa.there are also some other portions released in other areas along that same stretch.but this particular one is the one my firm has a stake in |
Dieumerci:ayetoro busstop.the site is behind the DSS quarters and shares boundary with the lagos state ijanikin rose garden residential estate scheme. |
Still selling |
chukwudi44:to be honest,you need help |
chukwudi44:this has to be an act.nobody can be this myopic,stubborn while been extremely ignorant all at the same time. |
chukwudi44:buruji's case was speedily dispensed with and it was about whether or not he can be extradited |
chukwudi44:even if it has never jailed anyone,it doesn't take away its powers to jail people |
chukwudi44:the ACJA was passed in May 2015.those cases were already on |
chukwudi44:perhaps you don't know that the administration of criminal justice act has been passed.each side on a trial only has right to 4adjournments which cannot be more than 14days apart.there is also a restriction on stay on proceedings and such suits cannot be heard till justice has been dispensed. so assuming each side takes their 4adjournments at 14 days apart,the trial cannot exceed 112 days.that is less than 4months.you really need to keep up with the trend my friend |
chukwudi44:to be honest,I don't understand your reasoning.do you think the constitution is interpreted literarily?what does subsection 3 of the quote below tell you?the aside this punishment,any other punishment could be meted out in accordance with the criminal code or any other law which can include the EFCC act,ICPC act etc.the CCT is fully empowered to send anyone to jail (1) Where the Tribunal finds a public officer guilty of contravening any of the provisions of this Act, it shall impose upon that officer any of the punishments specified under subsection (2) of this section. (2) The punishment which the Tribunal may impose shall include any of the following‐ (a) vacation of office or any elective or nominated office, as the case may be; (b) disqualification from holding any public office (whether elective or not) for a period not exceeding ten years; and (c) seizure and forfeiture to the State of any property acquired in abuse or corruption of office. (3) The punishments mentioned in subsection (2) of this section shall be without prejudice to the penalties that may be imposed by any law where the breach of conduct is also a criminal offence under the Criminal Code or any other enactment or law. |
baralatie:striking out the case is within the purview of the CCT.it can strike out the case since it isn't a party to the case.the CCB instituted the case and if the CCT finds no merit to the case,it can dismiss it on several counts or in its entirety |
baralatie:I would ask exactly what CCTV footage has to do with this case |
baralatie:ignorant people like to beat their chest but rarely have any tangible thing to say.tell us how tribunal erred,you changed topic.you people need help |
dearie:the CCT is an inferior court but it's tribunal chairman must be of equal rank to a judge of a superior court or even higher?where do they get you people from?appeals borne out of the tribunal's rulings go straight to the court of appeal but it is still an inferior court.the tribunal chairman can only be removed by 2/3 of the national assembly but it is still an inferior court.seems you people are just been deliberately mischievious.nobody can continously portray silliness and pettiness for this long.this has to be an act |
baralatie:i suppose you want us to beg you to enlighten us on how the CCT erred abi |
baralatie:what is this one saying?law isn't about common sense,its about the spirits and letters of the constitution.saraki's lawyers erred ab ibitio by going to the high court to seek an injunction against a tribunal of coordinate jurisdiction .next they erred by failing to produce their client in court leaving the justice to issue a warrant for his arrest.I don't see how the tribunal has erred but since you do,please educate us |
baralatie:whose decision is the CCT supposed to make?the only one attempting to create anarchy is the respondent who has refused the invitation of a legally constituted tribunal and has instead decided to shop for injunctions while his lawyers ridicule the laws of the land by turning it on its head |
baralatie:you assume the law is touch and go but it isn't.the CCT is in order |
sweatlana:the appeal court is yet to deliberate on the matter.all that news was just rumor |
sweetgala:ekweremadu cannot present himself for election as senate president unless he first resigns as deputy senate president.he cannot be acting senate president so there is no issue of confirmation.yes,ekweremadu can preside during plenary but he cannot call the house back from recess,only the senate president can |
chidibond:Joseph daudu is incompetent.the code of conduct bureau and tribunal act was amended in 2009 to read " 1) There shall be established a tribunal to be known as the Code of Conduct Tribunal (in this Act referred to as “the Tribunal”). (2) The tribunal shall consist of a Chairman and such other members as shall be appointed by the President in accordance with the recommendation of the National Judicial Council. (3) The Chairman or a member of the Tribunal shall be a person who has held or is qualified to hold office as a judge of a superior court of record in Nigeria and shall not be less than fifty-five years of age. (5) The Chairman and a member of the Tribunal shall hold office for a term of five years and may be re-appointed for another term of five years and no more. " it no longer specifies that there have to be 2 other members as the 2004 version did |
sweetgala:nowhere in the senate standing order of 2007 does it say ekweremadu takes over.section 7 of the senate standing says " Whenever a vacancy has occurred in the office of the President of the Senate durng a session , the Clerk shall report the same to the Senate at its next sitting , and the Senate shall either forthwith , or at its next Sitting, proceed to the election of a new President of the Senate in the manner herein before provided." the manner herein before provided is the one stated in section 3 subsection 1 and 2a-j stated below 3.-(1) A Senator-elect may, before taking the Oaths prescribed in the Seventh Schedule to the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, take part in the election of the President and Deputy President of the Senate. (2) The election of the Presidient of the Senate shall be conducted in the following manner: (a) a Senator-elect, addressing the Clerk, shal propose another Senator elect to the Senate to be President of the Senate and shall move that such Senate-elect “Do take the chair of the Senate as President of the Senate”. (b) a Senator-elect when nominated and seconded shall inform the Senate whether he or she accepts the nomination . He may then proceed to address the Senate. (c) the clerk shall then ask “Are there any further nomination? , and if there are no further nominations, the Clerk shall say “I declare the nominations closed”. The Clerk shall then ask “Are there any further nominations, the Clerk shall then, declare the Senator –elect so proposed and seconded elected as President of the Senate. Such –elect shall be conducted to the Chair by the proposer and seconder of the motion, and shall take the chair of the president of the Senate. (d) if more than one Senator elect is proposed as President of the Senate , the Clerk shall after the second nomination ask: “Are there any further nominations?”, and if there are no further nominations, the Clerk shall say, “I declare the nominations closed”. (e) when only two Senators –elect are nominated and seconded as President of Senate, the election shall be conducted as follows: (i) the Senate shall divide with the proposers and seconders as Tellers. (ii) voting shall be conducted by the Clerks-at-the-Table using the Division List of the Senate with the Tellers in attendance. The Clerk of the Senate shall submit the result of the division to the Clerk of the National Assembly. (iii) the Clerk shall then declare the Senator-elect who has received the greater number of votes elected as Presidents of Senate. (f) when more than two Senators –elect are nominated and seconded as President of the Senate, the division shall be conducted in the manner prescribed in Section (e) and the Senator-elect who has received a majority of votes shall be the President of the Senate. In the event of no Senator having received a majority of votes in the division , the name of candidate having the smallest number of votes shall be excluded from subsequent divisions. A further division shall take place. (g) in the event of an equality of votes , the Clerk shall cause a further division to be held. (h) this division shall continue until one candidate is declared elected as President of the Senate by such majority. (i) at any time after the result of the first division is declared, but before the commencement of a second or subsequent division a candiadate may withdraw his or her name from the election , which shall then proceed as if such Senator- elect had not been nominated. Whatever at any stage a withdrawal leaves only one candidate remaining, such a candidate shall, without further division, be declared elected as President of the Senate. (j) during the election of a President of the Senate, there shall be no debate and no question of privilege may be raised. (k) all Senators-elect shall participate in the nomination and voting for President and Deputy President of the Senate. (j) the election of President of the Senate shall take precedence over all other business and no motion for adjournment nor any other motion shall be accepted while it is ppproceeding and the Senate shall continue to meet if necessary beyond its ordinary daily time of adjournment, not withstanding any standing or Special Order, until a President of the Senate is declared." before the standing order was amended in 2007,a preside t pro tempore will emerge,but now,the clerk acts as president pro tempore.so ekweremadu cannot preside |
freedom96:the clerk will act as president pro tempore who will preside over the election of a new senate president |
sickko:go to kwara and see the intelligence of saraki at work |
softvio:senate started probing efcc after toyin saraki was invited .the truth is the EFCC and CCB collaborated on this case knowing fully well the presidency would not intervene as it also has an axe to grind with saraki.this case has nothing to do with Buhari or Tinubu.this is Lamorde taking advantage of the situation to get back at Saraki and wriggle out of whatever mess he put himself in with the money EFCC recovered.Saraki cannot scale this hurdle.his fellow senators will not put themselves on the line against Buhari by openly supporting him.they cannot also risk a national assembly without activity because the senate president is on trial.he will eventually go the way Wabara went after the education budget scandal |
softvio:saraki will pull a crowd?apart from the kwara contingent,saraki cannot pull anything.what does he have to offer?his only strength is the chairmanship of committees in the senate which is the only reason he had the like minds senators with him.the minute he leaves the post,he becomes just a senator |
dekaz:where do they get you people from?the federal high court cannot entertain a case from the CCB.it has no jurisdiction over it.the federal high court can only seek the merits of a case or grant an injunction and thatvonly applies to inferior courts and not to a court of coordinate jurisdiction like the CCT |
omenka:people forget that tinubu faced the tribunal under a PDP administration that was hellbent on getting him.at least saraki is a member of the ruling party and should ordinarily not have been this ruffled.but his over ambitiousness got the better of him and now,his party men don't even want to be seen with him. |
