Okay na, and they refused to hack, senate and House of reps server...

They want to win the presidency, but they don't want to control the National Assembly 😂😂

APC is as guilty as charged, I saw Oshiomole shivering yesterday during interview. Yesufu finished him off

Since they won, they never acknowledged Wike's rigging hand. They left him to face the wrath of Rivers people alone. Ordinary tweet like "Thank You Rivers people, we will not let you down " dem no fit. Now they have suddenly woken up to the reality that the real war is under way. That they are just bunch of jokers 🤣🤣

Now they rushed to acknowledged Wike publicly to massage his ego and possibly recruit him to help them in the war. Wike will fail them this time. Wike is leaving office and is not going to Senate, so he is after his own head now.

Fear fear APC...😂😂
FFK, Keyamo,Oshiomhole, Adamu, Ganduje, El Rufai...na these ones that couldn't even deliver their states to APC, want lead the battle for APC. They need a certain Wike whom Tinubu called a Chameleon in Rivers Government house...

Cold don dey catch APC😤😤..the reality of Obi tsunami just hit them 🤣🤣

Good


We Igbos are the most hospitable tribe in Nigeria

Dude is a blessing to us, the younger generation

ScamHunter:
This election heist by Tinubu should teach Peter Obi that the brigandage we see daily in the country is because people in high places never get punished when they break the law. I heard Obi say he would focus on governance and not the pursuit of the criminals in power. Do you know the harm Mahmoud or woreva has caused the Nigerian people everywhere. When Obi recovers his mandate, his first assignment is to make sure that the country is governed by the rule of law. If governors that rigged this election, INEC officials (including Mahmoud) and even law enforcement agents found culpable are not clamped and cramped into prisons, we have achieved nothing. We must get to the point where a judge that receives bribes to subvert justice, the politician that rigged an election and the petty thief that stole 6000 naira share the same prison cell. Until then Mr Obi, you have learned nothing. This culture of impunity must end before we can call this a country.

That's what he is now coming to correct.

That's good

Ok, pele o

Good, but so fast, hope he have gathered every proof needed...make we no go loose on technical grounds o.


I am ready 💯 for donations, if need be

IGBOSON1:
Exactly! They were so systematic and effective to the point they managed to rig the person with the highest number of votes down to 3rd position! They did this so if there happens to be a run-off it will be between them and Atiku instead of the popular choice of majority of Nigerians....and also so their e-thugs can come on social-media to open their gutter mouth and say 'Peter Obi is talking when he even came 3rd'!

They are joking with one of the smartest tribes in the world 😂😂

Them don quiet as Obi don tell them he is going to where they asked him to go. Next now is to assasinate Obi, cos if them follow am enter that court room, they are gone.

vanitybutiwanti:
I understand that a lot of people are emotional, if the election was free and fair, Tinubu would have lost, the other parties didn't plan for a worst case scenario, they believed in BVAS and Irev system. Numerous meetings were held abroad between Tinubu and his team, they were prepared for post election cases since last year, especially with the appointment of osibanjo as the head of the APC PCC legal team, and also the appointment of the new CJN, the governor of Rivers is a lawyer and he's also highly connected in the legal circles, if BAT could be removed by the courts, he wouldn't have rigged the election so brazenly in his state.

I asked for opinions of lawyers that have read the new electoral act extensively, the case can be won on technicality, and from events playing out now, it seems the APC have done their home work, even before 1/3 of the results had been announced, Fayemi sent out a congratulatory message on Twitter. Those guys are not fools..

All these people are too small for the squad coming for them. Both local and international. How many cases have Wike won in the Supreme Court as compared to Obi...

Obi still small for una eye abi. Even the Sultan of Sokoto lived with Obi for 2 years under the same roof. Oga Obi connection too long. Too much pressure will be mounted on the judges by international bodies, Just dey play.

BeardedmeatR:
Win or loose, it's imperative to retrieve any votes stolen.

It will enable us to have accurate data for analysing our strengths and weaknesses.

We cannot work for baboon to come and chop.

In some places it was so bad that they merely erased Labor party and wrote APC as heading.

Inec also blatantly broke it's own rules. They will need to defend that too because deleting their old tweets about BVAs isn't enough.

Certainly.

Oga they never played us the Obidients.
We only played a sucker to catch a sucker: we played dumber to them

For their minds we no wise abi? We are a new party, we no sabi rig, we no sabi go to court 😂😂

But let me give you a tip of the iceberg. There were millions of Nigerians accredited at their Polling units, and the accreditation data in the BVAS machines will prove that. They voted and their votes were not transmitted from the Polling units to the IReV because of the so called glitch bla bla. That's fine, and results were collated manually. Now where are the results as the total votes from the local governments did not correspond to the number of voters who were accredited at the Polling units. So after accreditation they changed their mind and went home and refused to vote, some decided to go clubbing, fishing or hunting 😂😂

Now if you said they voted, where are their votes?
There were local governments, wards in Imo State where absolutely no elections took place, but results were called. So BVAS machines used in those places must prove the ghosts that were accredited and how those ghosts voted in those polling units and whom they voted for.

The 2023 presidential elections had the greatest collections of PVCs since 1999 at 93% of 87 million total registered voters and yet the overall percentage of votes dropped to 27% lower than 35% recorded in 2019, whereas observers keep sustaining the fact the presidential elections of 25th February witnessed the highest turn-outs of voters since the return of Democracy in Nigeria. Some Observers have always been appointed by the EU to observe elections in Nigeria since 1999 elections.

Percentage of overall turn-outs was projected to be 45%, many of them were either disenfranchised, deliberately, by late arrivals of electoral officials, by thugs who hijacked the electoral process at the affected polling units and in many polling units INEC officials never showed up at all. Those who actually voted; their votes were slashed to favour the candidate declared the winner. There are about 10 million votes unaccounted for...and they belonged to Mr. Obi or Mr. Abubakar, because if they belonged to Mr. Tinubu, INEC for add am for him, to further increase his winning margin. Moreso, Mr. Tinubu is insisting the elections were free and fair, so not even one of his votes is missing....😂😂

Oga this is not Igbo turn to rule. It is the turn of the masses and youth to rule. As for this elections ehn, heads will roll, we must recover our mandate.

We shall hit you guys harder this time, with 10 senators, 35 reps and 3 governors coupled with our stolen mandate now, joy no dey. Infact all of una up there na low lives una be

This money go hard to chop. E be like Betking Super picks

When Peter Obi was moving from one country to another, meeting Nigerians, you people thought he was joking, now Nigerians in diaspora are already reporting his matter all over foreign media.

PDP don strike

Pabloma:
Can you please name those state that he won with 25% and was rigged out as you claimed ?.....una just go they open mouth and write nonsense without concrete evidence

I have my evidence, but highly classified...

KingsCity:
All Nigerians know the antecedents of APC and PDP, they have perfected the art of rigging. They have ‘structure’ I.e Governors, Legislators, LG, chairmen, councilors, etc. What this ‘ structure’ does is that it tries to manipulate the outcome of elections at every level. If APC has no less than 20 Governors!

LP had no ‘structure’ and it’s obvious that if LP could get 6m votes against APC’’s 8 and PDP’ 6 million, then LP actually won. If the fraud element is properly adjusted for, it is my considered view that LP most likely won

Labour party missing votes is 8 to 10 million and I can prove that to you.

Good, and they will do just that

Wagwanbrethren:
Oya go court and stop wailing online na! 🤣
Does this place look like supreme Court? 🤔

When Obi was getting 97/95 percent win in the east you wailers didn't say a thing or is that not rigging too? 🤣🤣

That's where we are now, so let you guys meet us...

SANs for SANs
Proofs for Proofs
Fire for Fire

Anyhow we dey...we planned for this day long ago

We told them that the Ohaneze-Ndi Igbo that congratulated Tinubu yesterday, was the Ekiti faction, they no let us hear word😂😂

He was rigged, he got 25% in 2/3 states it was all planned out by INEC and APC

Aufbauh:
Honestly I cannot understand how some people enjoys making an open show of shame of their selves.

The most laughable and absurd of those claims is Obi who barely got 25% in 16 states claiming to have won the election.
He must be sniffing meth in the secret.

Mynd44:
All three parties rigged abeg. Let no one come and stress our lives

sadly, I don't think so. Why is APC not accusing Labour party of Rigging FCT results to LP's favour.

The know LP's hands are clean.

wirinet:
In Nigeria God is justification for every evil imaginable. Boko Haram rapes and murders children and women in the name of God. Kidnappers kill and sell the body parts of their victims in the name of God. Even priests and pastors fleece members of their congregations of their money and dignity in the name of God. Elections are stolen in the name of God.


This was the reason I became an atheist very young in life. I could not in clear conscience worship a God that turn people evil.

No wonder Blaise Pascal said " There's no time when men commits so much evil than with a religious conviction"
Nigeria Don open my eyes 😥😥

Good let the fireworks💥start

Make una free Obi na

God of Rigging abi? Just as we have God of Soccer in football...

Vagina people sef😎

You rigged him to 3rd position, so that he will back off from going to Courts.
You later asked him to go to the courts and not the streets...

And he obeyed...why are you afraid again. See if Nnamdi Kanu, a man agitating for a break away state from Nigeria can win the FG in Nigeria's own court...who the hell is APC that Peter Obi cannot defeat.

Stop shouting okay...

THE OPPOSITIONS’ CHANCES ARE SLIM AT THE TRIBUNAL: A LEGAL OPINION


I hereby congratulate His Excellency Bola Ahmed Tinubu of the All Progressive Congress (APC) who was declared the President-elect of the Federal Republic of Nigeria on the 1ST of March 2023 in accordance with the provisions of section 134 of the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria 1999.

The major opposition parties are not satisfied with the outcome of the February 25th 2023 election and have vowed to approach the Election Tribunal to clear their doubts. Based on conversations on the streets and virtual society, my legal opinion on select issues are discussed briefly below.

Legal Issues

1. Where does the Presidential Election Tribunal start and who are the judges that make up the tribunal?

2. Whether images/pictures of result sheets will be admissible by the tribunal as evidence?

3. Whether the election will be declared void or cancelled because the regulations guiding transmission of the results was not complied with?

4. Whether 25% of votes cast in the Federal Capital Territory is a prerequisite to become the President of Nigeria?


1. Where does the Presidential Election Tribunal start and who are the judges that make up the tribunal?

Section 239 (1)(a) of the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria 1999 establishes the Court of Appeal of Nigeria as the Presidential Election Tribunal (See also section 130(2)(b) of the Electoral Act 2022). The venue of the court will most likely be the Court of Appeal (Abuja Judicial Division). Not less than 3 justices of the Court of Appeal will be members of the Presidential Election Tribunal (see section 247 of CFRN 1999). The tribunal must have been set up 30 days before the elections in accordance with section 130 (3)(a) of the Electoral Act 2022.


2. Whether images/pictures of result sheets will be admissible by the tribunal as evidence?

The answer is no. Pictures of results taken or downloaded whether by party agents or electorates will not be admissible as evidence in court. The admissible documentary evidence in court is the result sheet itself as will be presented by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) (See sections 86, 88 and 102 of the Evidence Act 2011). Since the result sheet is a public document (section 102 of the Evidence Act), if it is missing a certified true copy will be tendered in accordance with section 90 (1) ( c ) of the Evidence Act. Electronic evidence from the BVAS system or Ires/INEC’s website can only be tendered by INEC because only the Commission can satisfy the conditions of tendering Electronic Evidence laid down by Section 84 of the Evidence Act and emphasized in the case of Kubour v. Dickson.


3. Whether the election will be declared void or cancelled because the regulations guiding transmission of the results was not complied with?

The answer is most likely no although it is subject to the discretion of the tribunal. Section 135(1) of the Electoral Act 2022 is quoted below:

“An election shall not be liable to be invalidated by reason of non-compliance with the provisions of this Act if it appears to the Election Tribunal or Court that the election was conducted substantially in accordance with the principles of this Act and that the non-compliance did not affect substantially the result of the election.”

The provision quoted above means that even if INEC does not conduct the election exactly as stated in the Act, the election will be valid as long as the provisions violated did not affect the result of the election “substantially”.

4. Whether 25% of votes cast in the Federal Capital Territory is a prerequisite to become the President of Nigeria?

The answer is no. Section 134 of CFRN 1999 states that a candidate must not have “less than one-quarter of the votes cast at the election in each of at least two-thirds of all the States in the Federation and the Federal Capital Territory, Abuja” to become the President of Nigeria. That provision must be read together with section 299 of the same constitution which gives the FCT, Abuja, the status of a state. The court of Appeal will not deviate from the decision of the Supreme Court in Bakare v. Ogundipe (2021) where the supreme court reiterated the status of the FCT Abuja as a state in accordance with section 299 of CFRN 1999. Even in the classical case of Shagari V. Awolowo, the Supreme Court of Nigeria counted “Lagos” which was then the seat of government as a state to determine whether the candidates had 25% in the required states.

if it is missing a certified true copy will be tendered in accordance with section 90 (1) ( c ) of the Evidence Act. Electronic evidence from the BVAS system or Ires/INEC’s website

To start with, na here go first kill INEC and APC. You think say you go school, you wise pass us abi?

I will just stop here, omo wahala dey ground. I know you want to get some facts to prepare una defence. Let me just give you this one, weapons of mass destruction dey ground. Our arsenal is fully loaded with facts, figures, exhbits, Omo e choke. Make una go prepare on this one...

ethikallyright:
The court will not crown your candidate a winner because he says he's a good man , you think he's the best for the job or not to hurt your feelings.

He who alleges must prove.

Hope you can read and understand my own submissions... Oga to defend Tinubu's electoral victory, is presently the hardest job on Earth right now...I wish you good luck

Herkim:
President elected Bola Ahmed Tinubu is a true Democrat and strategic manager that was why he set up the committee to heal all the wounds without any further delay.

You want rig this simple question I asked you...bloody riggers. How many reconciliation committees did Biden set up to go and beg Trump and you are betting about the bush.

A true Democrat cannot tell you "it's my turn"

Get ready for President Obi
