Heavensent01:
Yoruba ni mi indeed


who cares where you emanated from? does that stop you from being a complete imbeciles?

Òbö ni é, òbö lágídò.

Alaigbopress:
APC was busy reducing LP's votes because they know that people voted overwhelmingly for LP in Rivers followed by PDP. APC came a distant 3rd position

Wahala.

This rigging is the most clueless any cheat can ever come up with. Too obvious na.

That was in favor of PDP.
How?
The presiding officer even signed the altered digits to lay claims to the errors.

Can't these officials be tracked? Especially as their names are right there?
Tete Barinua Benedicta, walahi e no go better for you.

Flat yansh dey shake.

Timetravel88:
The Obidients will gladly vote for Atiku than Tinubu. They are already forming the alliance as I type.

You're just a noise maker.
K-pad warrior.
You don't know jack.

Nlfpmod.

This guy needs your help.

Dikegodspower:
Sanwo olu is scared already.
Obidients in Lagos, we will do.it again on the March 11th

Don't conclude yet, anyone can type this nonsense.
Let OP show us proof of sender.

If you can show us the sender's name and number, I swear before man and God, I'm voting against APC in the gubernatorial election.

On your phone first Oga, Nigerians wan tell you something.

Thank you for calling my attention to that.

You're welcome, boss.

HIPROFILE:
Noo bro a rerun will be between candidate that got the highest vote by sates and candidate that got the most 25% of the states.

Yes boss. Someone later pointed it out and I've confirmed it.

Fuadx1:
If there's precedence like this it won't be a problem anymore.

Actually there's a problem.

The judge specifically stated that that particular judgement should not be used as precedence.

Walahi, it's specifically stated.

soojar:
What's the flaw sir? Shagari won 12 states out of 19 and 2/3 of 19 states is supposed to be 12.666.


The court ruled that 12 is sufficient if they consider the number of actual people that voted and getting 2/3 of that.

I am saying the court affirmed the 12 states he won which made Awo to claim he was given extra state to make 13, since you can't actually get the 12.666 state to make the exact 2/3 of 19



We learn everyday

Egbon, see what you wrote.

..the supreme court ruled that since its people we are talking about and you can't have decimal people so it has to be rounded off to 13, Awolowo was insisting that in that situation it should be rounded down to 12,...

The supreme Court didn't say it had to be rounded off to 13. Supreme Court supported 12 not 13. And it was Awolowo that insisted 13 was the appropriate number of states to be won.
And after that particular judgement, supreme Court stated specifically that the judgement can't be sited as precedence.
I think that was necessary because they knew they were wrong to have supported 12 over 13. And it's reason Awolowo felt cheated.
Any debate?

Nadheer15:
No, Awolowo wanted the 12 and the courts ruled for 13.

I no dey for unnecessary arguments.

soojar:
Its because of the number of states won by Shagari, using the 2/3 makes it a decimal and the supreme court ruled that since its people we are talking about and you can't have decimal people so it has to be rounded off to 13, Awolowo was insisting that in that situation it should be rounded down to 12, Eventually the supreme court ruled that based on the cost and other issues involved in conducting a rerun then it is safer to round off to 13. Final judgement.

That's why Awolowo still felt aggrieved till he died that he was cheated. The truth is that if that election went on to run off I don't see Awolowo winning it.

Actually the court ruled in support of 12 and not 13 and it's reason Shehu Shagari won the case. Your claims are flawed.

Naajjii:
How is it going to be Obi vs Tinibu, how ?

As spelt out in the Constitution.

Mccullum:
Two third of 36 states is 24 states.

Yes. Then compulsorily with 25% of FCT.

gnaira:
Please, the law is open and available for everyone to read.

It is clearly stated.
25% in 2/3 of the 36 states and 25% in FCT

This means, the candidate must have 25% in 24 states and 25% in FCT.

Note the word "and" not "maybe".

This means regardless, FCcT being the central and hope to President, he must have 25% acceptability.

I have confirmed it already. I'm clear on it.
It's a must.
In fact, it specifically has been spelt out by the court of law in the past.

casualobserver:
You are a slowpoke

Oro e ti ye mi, Boda.

casualobserver:
How am I wrong? I just checked. I was only wrong in because although that was how it was decided in 1979, it was specifically stated In he judgement of the supreme court that it would not be regarded as legal precedent.

https://thenationonlineng.net/akinjides-12-2-3-moniker/

I won't even check this your link.

You aren't sure of the history yourself and yet you used a line like this.

That’s why you people who are not taught history are disadvantaged.

Do your homework well at least.

FatherOfJesus:
you are not addressing the issue of 25% in FCT. It's important

I'm clear on that already.
Tinubu didn't get the required 25% votes which is by virtue of Constitution a must.

He's the supposed governor of FCT (by extension) and it's fair he wins 25% of the votes of that particular territory. It's a must.
The correct interpretation is 25% of the votes in 2/3 of the 36 states and FCT.
25% of 24 states and as well 25% of FCT.

casualobserver:
That’s why you people who are not taught history are disadvantaged. Same thing happened in 1979 and precedent was set. it was determined by the Supreme Court that you will need to get 25% of 2/3rds of the vote in the 25th state. This is legal precedent.

You're even wrong with the history you quoted.

Idiko1:
The bolded is a wrong statement even in applied situation. The summation of 2/3 of 37 is 24.67 is greater than 24 but less than 25. Since the states are not fractioned but whole, therefore 24.67 is appropriately roundup to 25.

I made that statement out of the judgement the court passed during the Shagari v Awolowo's 1983 court case.
The court favored Shagari and claimed 2/3 of 19 states was 12 and not 13.
After all, the 2/3 of 19 is as well 12.67.

Naajjii:
It's your fear so Atiku is not a good for rerun ?

It's been clarified.
Atiku is out of the race.
If there is ever going to be a run off then it's going to be better Obi and Tinubu.

FatherOfJesus:
Obi will make the runoff because according to the constitution, the runoff will be the person with the popularity votes and the person with the highest number of states won. However, I want a rerun between APC and PDP

Wow.
This is so true.

These are attention seekers.

You don't protest against something this important and still hold phones taking pictures likes some slay queens.

Jokers.

seglabsy:
1979 not 1983

It was 1983, his second term.
1979 was his first tenure.

Heavensent01:
maybe you mean run off illiterate people of Biafra



Peter obi couldn't give you monkeys education because education is not meant for the poor

Do you know what makes you stupid? Yoruba ni mi, mi o ki n'she omo nna.
Na you and your ancestors be monkey.

GeneralPula:
It means at least 24 random states of the 37 states..

Alright. Thanks.

wolebest:
You can have 25% as required by law and still loose if another candidates scores 25% but has higher number of votes nationwide.

You're missing the bone of contention.
We are looking at the possibility of a runoff.
Do you need to compulsorily have 25% of FCT in particular to be declared a winner?
