001Lagos: Abuja Obidients erects a massive billboard with "All eyes on the judiciary boldly written on it
Abuja residents erect massive billboards to remind the election petition tribunal that Nigerians got there eyes on them as the date for final judgement of the presidential election draws near.
I don't even know where you guys are getting your confidence from. Get this in peace. There will never, I repeat "never" be a rerun. You can take that to the bank
A group of public affairs analysts have said that APC’s worst mistake was challenging the outcome of Osun gubernatorial election in 2022.
They were speaking in relation to the cases before the presidential election tribunal and the expected judgment.
According to them, the Osun judgment was the first time the Supreme Court interpreted the 2022 Electoral Act. And in doing so, the Supreme Court gave some significant pronouncements which includes:
First, that IREV was an integral part of of INEC’s collation process.
Again, that the BVAS and from EC8A were primary sources of evidence in proof of electoral fraud or anything thereof.
Similarly, that both the Constitution, the Electoral Act and INEC Guidelines and even Training Manual are justiciable. That is, that they are all legal instruments that can be used against INEC should they deviate from any. In doing this, the Supreme Court even quoted a section of INEC’s guideline verbatim which established the undisputed place of INEC Guidelines in law.
Now, this group are of the opinion that almost all the resolutions of the Supreme Court in the Osun Judgment, is working against APC’s case at the Tribunal right now. And considering that the Osun judgment is as recent as 3 months ago, it is a precedent that the Supreme Court might easily depart from anytime soon.

But you forgot something in your write-up, NON SUBSTANTIAL COMPLIANCE
Ibadanpikin: With the way everything is increasing starting from foods stuffs,transportation,tuition fees and now cooking gas about to increase,the owners of Nigeria should please help there poor ones.Igbos don't assist anybody that is not from your ethnicity,the are all rich but increase the price of your wares and goods.
Mumu! Nigerians are not suffering. How many people you see for street dey suffer? Nigerians have adapted to the subsidy removal. It is people like you that don't want to do anything that is crying suffering. You know wetin be suffer! Rubbish and ingredient.
SSFeedsNigeria: “Now they are leaving our shores one after the other. GSK which has a manufacturing facility in Agbara, Ogun State on over 25 hectares of land had directly employed over 400 highly technical workers like pharmacists, microbiologists, biochemists, chemists, dentists, doctors etc, and also employed over 1000 other staff".
Same is happening with all those companies and businesses closing shops across Nigeria.
I know you've sold your soul for agbado but you should have some shame, no matter how little. Read that part I highlighted above and tell me if you're normal. So GSK closing their factory in Ogun state, and employing 1400 skilled people in another country instead of Nigeria is okay to you?!
Just imagine the things I'm sharing a country with💩🤡😡
Mumu! Companies downsizing or closing factories does not mean the country of operation is its reason for doing so. In this case, it's because of the business model they want to operate. Stop blaming government. Like I said Apple builds the iPhone in China but sells in America. Does it mean the American government pursued them? No. It's just a business model to maximize profits.
Racoon: What are you hiding? Why does the balabloo-blu-bulava does not want his certificates scrutinised? Certificates are issued by institutions across the globe for public scrutiny and accountability. No institution will issue a certificate that can never be subjected to public verification. Be guided and educated.
Nobody is hiding anything. Those certificates have been in the public domain for a long time. Even Reno went there to check. But right now, PDP is turning this thing into a Circus, jumping up and down on someone certificate as if that is where their mandate is hidden. Therefore, it's not a bad thing for Tinubu to defend himself.
SSFeedsNigeria: Something terrible and scary is happening to Nigeria but many aren't even aware. Since Tinubu emerged as president, virtually every sector of our economy is fast collapsing. Thousands of SME's are closing down everyday across Nigeria while big corporations are selling off their assets in Nigeria and moving elsewhere! Millions of people have joined the unemployment market and others will soon join too if nothing drastic is done to save our economy. Already, the latest data on global employment reported that Nigeria currently has the world's highest unemployment rate. Yet it keeps getting worse!
Below are some of the sectors and companies that have already left or about to do so in the last few months alone:
“As a result, millions are losing their jobs and our poverty index is worsening, even though we're already being perceived as the world’s poverty capital. The multinationals that are leaving our country have not only created jobs but have created immeasurable training that contributed immensely to our human capital development over the years.
“Now they are leaving our shores one after the other. GSK which has a manufacturing facility in Agbara, Ogun State on over 25 hectares of land had directly employed over 400 highly technical workers like pharmacists, microbiologists, biochemists, chemists, dentists, doctors etc, and also employed over 1000 other staff.
Unfortunately, some Nigerians are still playing politics of tribalism and religious sentiments while the president is more concerned about a coup in Niger republic.
What happens when everything collapses? Who will save Nigeria or is this end?!
Oga, stop wailing! Campaign is over. GSK yen! yen!! yen!!! Apple producing iPhone parts in China, does that mean US government is not performing? Rubbish. GSK will still sell their products in Nigeria. It is just the business model they want to implement.
TheGoodJoe: All this one is long story. INEC laid down their guidelines in line with the electoral act and marred it.
Writing the law can not change the fact.
well, let the court decide. Don't say the judges have been bribed when they decide against you and your candidate. Because that will be another round of serious wailing and blackmail.
TheGoodJoe: How can you type the bolded with a straight face? INEC has the right to choose the process. INEC made a decision. The President used multiple sources to educate Nigerians of the process.
INEC made a manual and released it to all electoral officers instructing them of the process.
Unless you want to argue plain fact, INEC, not just the chairman abandoned the laid down process chosen by INEc.
Oga! INEC guidelines are not sacrosanct. What is sacrosanct is the electoral act and for that matter, it is not 100% sacrosanct. The electoral act still whittle itself down by having a clause called "NON SUBSTANTIAL COMPLIANCE". Therefore, picking one part of the act and saying this and this were not done therefore the election should be cancelled does not hold even one drop of water. There's reason for this. Nigeria is not in control of all the factors that can affect the election. Since this is the case, it will be unwise to be rigid as that would mean the electoral authority would be open to blackmail, or intimidation. Things like natural disasters or human/artificial challenges can stop our election. For example, the glitch on the election day could have stopped the election if INEC were not at liberty to decide how elections are conducted. Now, if the elections were postponed because of a glitch, what if it happens again on the postponed date? Then again and again? Does it mean we will not conduct elections again? Make una dey think well o!
TheGoodJoe: That is why we spent over #300 billion for the elections. INEC made their choice and made sure verification of results are real time. Whether in Borno, Sokoto or Abia State. Real time verification.
INEC put it in their manual and shared to all electoral officers. That was their chosen standard. No one forced or compelled them.
Then all over the country, not just a place, their chosen system and advertised means of verification did not happen.
That marred the election. Even Tinubu's lawyers could not defend it.
I wonder how you guys are able to type rubbish with a straight face! Whatever INEC chairman said, it is not the law. INEC chairman does not make laws. The law is what it is and it is derived from the electoral act. Anything outside the electoral act is bunkum.
Penguin2: The stability of the West African subregion is predicated on the stability of Nigeria which is the powerhouse of the subregion.
Now, the stability of Nigeria is predicated on having a president who emerged through a transparent election, and the whole country and the world could see that yes, this man is the clear winner of this election. Such a president will command the respect of not just majority of Nigerians but also the respect of foreign nations especially the Heads of Governments of the ECOWAS subregion.
For instance, look at Abia…. It’s clear even to the blind that Alex Otti won the governorship in the state. Opposition might sometimes question his policies but never his legitimacy. And look at the respect and followership he commands.
Look at Benue…. No matter how anyone hates APC, you cannot question the legitimacy of Fr Alia as governor of Benue. He won the election. PDP candidate saw he won the election. Labour Party candidate saw he won the election. And Nigerians saw he won the election.
Kano is similar to the above two examples as well. No matter the grouse Ganduje has with Kwankwaso, he cannot question the legitimacy of Aba Gida Gida. Abba won the election and that much is clear to everyone.
The above 3 instances are examples of where elections reflected the choice of the majority of the people and not even the wife of the losers would dare complain of their husbands being rigged out.
These 3 governors command absolute respect as drawn from their unquestionable legitimacy.
But same cannot be said of Tinubu’s victory….
INEC’s IREV had to develop “technical glitches” midway into the election to enable him ‘win’.
In an election conducted same day and time, the senatorial election results were transmitted successfully, House of Representatives results were transmitted successfully but it got to the Presidential election results and IREV developed “technical glitches”.
Oya, INEC, come and explain the nature of the glitches that you encountered, it’s been 4 months and they still can’t do it.
Nigerians are not animals. We have brains. If something genuinely went wrong, we would have known. And so we know that whatever happened on Election Day was a deliberate human manipulation.
But it was not only Nigerians that saw it…. ECOWAS observers report, which some people erroneously think approved of the election, condemned the election. European Union Observers condemned the election conduct. And so were other foreign observers.
That was where Tinubu lost legitimacy both at home and abroad.
And so when the Niger fracas ensued, the coupists had something to latch on to defend their action and refusal to relinquish power - the man who sits as ECOWAS chair and who is trying to lecture them on democracy is himself illegitimate.
They got their people to print banners with such message and protest in the streets. They even went as far paying foreign influencers to further wash all the dirty linens of Tinubu to the global audience.
But would they have done this if the Nigerian election had been free and fair and thrown up a man of unquestionable character as president? My answer is no. Because they wouldn’t have had anything on him. Maybe they wouldn’t even have contemplated a coup at the first place.
But because of how the election went and the character that was declared winner, Niger now had the impetus to challenge Nigeria for the first time since independence in 1960. It was so bad that we even sent our former Head of State and the Sultan as emissaries and they refused them entry into their country.
But it’s not only Niger, Mali, Guinea and Burkina Faso have also thrown an affront at Nigeria by siding with Niger.
And gradually, ECOWAS is about to go in disarray. And if ECOWAS goes in disarray, the West African subregion will go in disarray too and so would whatever interest that US, UK and France are trying to protect go to blazes as well.
What is the solution?
The only solution now is that the stakeholders of Nigeria (owners of Nigeria or whatever they are called) and the West (US, UK, France) who may have been supporting Tinubu for whatever reason best known to them, must now realize that Tinubu was a mistake that should not have happened in the first place. And if Nigeria must return to her place of pride in the ECOWAS subregion, then there is need for the country to have a president who will not only be respected at home but also outside the boarders of Nigeria. Once Nigerians regains her respect, she will can issue commands that would be respected and with it would come the stability of West Africa.
Failure of this, and a continued maintenance of the status quo, would further bring more disrespect to Nigeria and further destabilization of the West African Sub Region.
In a sane society, fashola and the entire APC miscreants would have been executed by firing squad by now. Is this not the same fashola that said "a serious govt will fix electricity in 6 months" ? The werey has been in govt ever since and couldn't do anything. Na the foolish drug lord I blame. I hope president Peter obi is taking note of the people that would be thrown in jail. The election tribunal should hurry up and do the needful
taylor88: Tinubu is a first class accountant from Chicago University
He’s a master strategist yen yen yen
He will employ his best brains and technocrats to make Nigeria better
He’s the renewed hope
See his cartel and squad
Very shameful and clueless thief
EBOLA TINUBU
So this was his best team?
The one you call righteous was exposed by the Pandora files. while he was governor, he stole N250 million monthly from the state. He invested state money into his family business. why not someone else's business, why was it his own? Because he is a thief. Now compare this criminal with Keyamo, who is the Saint here.
Why should he step down when he's on the right track? You think good things come esay! And you dey complain. Why you no make the money nau if it's easy? Tinubu has done the right thing. No pain no gain.
This thread is for lazy broke ass niggers and bitches waiting for Peter Obi to spoon fed them with lies. A man that could not cater for even a community not to talk of a local government is what you people think will save a country! Rubbish and ingredient.
We know what's happening. Obidients are in pains because this Niger challenge would have been a good way for Obi to shine in the international community but na Tinubu dey shine. city boy! Carry go!
1Sharon: The truth is that only rich men are entitled to be polygamous🥴
A poor polygamous man should be jailed for crimes against humanity.
Madam! Polygamy is not a crime. Even Christianity supports it. Read your Bible, you will see that almost everyone mentioned in it apart from Christ and the disciples had more than one wife.
nairavsdollars: I strongly believe this ECOWAS role is a huge distraction for President Bola Tinubu. Even though he accepted it to confer legitimacy on him as president of Nigeria.
We have so many problems bedeviling us as a nation but he is busy chasing clout as ECOWAS chairman trying to fix other nations' problems.
Why not let us remove the log in our eyes first before talking about the speck in the eyes of others?
you carry another man headache, you come dey complain say d headache dey distract am! Funny people.
kettykings: There was no clear winner as no one met the constitutionnal requirements to be declared winner .inec hurriedly declared a winner without following due process.
The double nomination of Shettima invalidates the candidacy of Tinubu and Shettima.
The absence of a valid primary and secondary certificate.
The forfeiture of a very huge sum to the US narcotics agency.
The dual citizenship of Tinubu.
Allowing this to go is same as allowing the military back to power
I think you must be very dull and unlearned in real life.
So that people like Enice can make olosho a housewife.
Enice na real man and nice guy na. Na White Knight to save those who don do community whoring.
Every Mallam to him kettle. You no go live my life for me, and me no go live yours either. There's a reason why an apple is different from an orange. We all can't have you myopic character that reduces a woman to what has passed through her privates. A woman should be qualified with her character not her sexual activity.
