You just comment as if you're not a Nigerian or not in Nigeria. As if you don't know what might have happened. These 27 lawmakers wilfully announced at the floor of the state house of assembly in Rivers state their defection and after that they went to court to swear on an affidavit that they defected to APC because of the issue in PDP and they went further to request for an order to bar INEC and PDP from declaring their seats vacant on the premise that their defection was as a result of faction in PDP national headquarters. They even went further to organize news conference declaring that they are now members of APC.

If you think APC will be so stupid with the issue on ground to leave stones unturned. All traces on their assumption into the party must have been erased.

I always ask this universal question. Do people go to court to swear to an affidavit for the sake of just having or doing it and go and keep it at home? I thought an affidavit is sworn to for a reason because there is an existing something?

With this your argument it means they have gone to court to misled the judge to issuing them affidavit that was full of inconsistency and false information. That is tantamount to perjury to lie on oath.

No matter how you see it, an affidavit had been sworn to and is abiding on the person that sworn to it, as court is not a playing ground where dick and harry will go collect affidavit with false information.

Now, can you now use your common sense because party don't issue resignation letter to a defected member, it is the party they are going to that give them party's cards and they document at their unit levels. If you say, they should have submitted a resignation letter to PDP, you would have made more sense than the one you wrote.

I also discovered from this your comment that you have not seen the content of the affidavit they sworn to. The affidavit contain different prayers which they asked and not only on their defection. They also prayed for the court to bar INEC and PDP from declaring their seats vacant and so many prayers.

Meanwhile, the court was wrong about what they did, because the budget was presented to the 5 members because as at the time of the budget presentation, the 27 lawmakers have defected to APC and in the eye of the law, they are no more lawmakers by the virtue of their defection and that was why they went to SHC and the court barred them from functioning as lawmakers. It was the same judgement that the 27 members appealed to.

Point of correction, 4 members can pass a budget if the 4 members are the legally recognized members. There was a court order making their membership of the house assembly null and void as at that time. As the business of government cannot stop because some people decided to run foul of the law by their defection.
I can remember that Ayo Fayose used a I think 6 member of Ekiti House to sign his budget in his second term , as he chased 19 ACN legal members away to Ibadan. The case is still much fresh in my memory.

billyG:
It is not just withdrawing an affidavit that matter,affidavit is sworing under oath that what you declare is the true & nothing but d truth,even if the withdraw it what it contained that they decamped to apc cannot be change.

NaijaGoBetter2:
Try to understand me, bro. Nigerian yams are being exported from Ghana, packaged with Ghanaian materials. From Nigeria to Ghana, Nigeria to Niger—none of this is officially recorded, as it bypasses the standard export process.

I usually avoid mad dogs so please avoid me too

brotherly:
why una like to read story upside down?

Amaewhule said he has defected . multiple times ---state assembly chambers, press conference, APc welcome party and finally court affidavit . Which Fubara has accepted .

The only thing Fubara is now saying is , since you have defected , you need to recontest.

It is very shameful that the same people who claimed that the 27 will not lose their seat for defecting while citing past cases are the ones coming now to say they did not defect .

If judiciary try any nonsense with this case , trying to bring back these people to impeach Governor , anything we see make we take ...

Electronic evidence is also admissible
Check the constitution

That is criminal offence to go to court registry to alter,remove,steal a court classified document.
The copy is already in public domain,the internet has it on copies.

MASTAkiLLAh:
you're seeing first hand how the Nigerian judiciary especially in Abuja is being bastardized so please don't be surprised at anything concerning our so called lawyers anymore. They should be scrapped even

EmeeNaka:
Video evidence can't hold water. Fubara and his group must insist that the affidavit remain part of the court contest. I have never learnt that someone can withdraw affidavit like that. That's like lying to court.

EmeeNaka:
Everything you wrote would have mattered if the Lawmakers didn't swear an oath in affidavit deposed to the court, in which case they claimed they have defected. If the lawmakers has claimed in the court that they didn't defect, then the onus will be on the accuser to prove that they defected. If a defendant plead guilty to a crime, the prosecutor doesn't need to prove anything anymore. In fact, the PDP and APC as a party would no longer be involved in proving anything as the Defendant has accepted that they defected in an affidavit. Provided that affidavit is admitted as a evidence, the lawmakers will be sent packing. No two ways about it. They were not under duress when they swore affidavit.

Saao:
lol politicians with funny analysis. Please don't quote me with your junk. Final bus stop is supreme court

NaijaGoBetter2:
I don't think they export Nigeria yam from Nigeria but from Ghana.

FYI, there is no Google in India. Yandex owns Russia. You think India will fight Google because Russia is having inferiority complex.
BRICS can not do anything to Google. Nada.

the video isn't social media evidence. News air by channel isn't social media. Anyway, I know where you belong, I'm for the right thing to be done not party sentiment

Saao:
What about the video evidence?

Heffalump:
I remember the debate as whether he will choose Nigeria ahead of Togo. Emmanuel Adebayor would have created a bigger impact on the continent of Africa if he had chosen to play for Nigeria instead of Togo.

She will never agree she did it.
Nigerian girls are the only creature that will be crying blood,swearing and even faint and still be lying.

But in a jungle called Nigeria, one Ocha k'Omaka rep after dishing out loads of slaps to a hapless individual and his halfwit apology was told to go and sin no more?


This is how we know the animals in the jungle.

Any government aircraft except the presidential jet is a coffin ⚰️ even the VP jet had it windscreen broken few days ago while taxing.
The Nigerian government is notorious for buying scrapped aircraft a whole NNPCL can't even afford to buy a first hand aircraft that individuals in Nigeria buys from time to time.

Pickmycall:
Nigerian government always buys scrapped aircrafts at inflated prices.That is why they always crash.

Denalarian:
Whose was it? Israels'? Unserious leaders. Just eave this country before the country leaves you behind.. this country has killed so many dreams of gifted teenagers and once you pass the 30years of age employment threshold, you become literally tasteless like clay. even mosquitoes won't enjoy bitting you..

SlavaUkraini:

Leave your shoes 👟👟

Outside.

LastGiantAlive:
No need to waste further time bro. Tell the president to quicken the dissolution of the contraption so Enugu will go and become Somalia immediately instead of drawing super rich states like ogun and Ekiti behind. Let's rid our beautiful country of poor states like Enugu and Anambra that does nothing but impede the progress of progressive brown cities like Osun, Ondo and the rest. This is the least we can do as patriotic citizens.

michlins:
like I said, I can always employ you.

If you have made 1ml in your entire life or anyone in your family is worth such, you will know there's no way that a secondary school in Nigeria will be worth close to $5ml
