Trump will jail Harris and Biden for war crimes in the Middle East and election rigging in Nigeria and Tinubu the beneficiary will go down.

Remember they tried to jail him too.

ch214:
In a surprising turn of events, many Nigerians are urging Vice President Kashim Shettima to decline the role of Acting President if President Bola Tinubu is impeached. The reason behind this request is to ensure that the presidency remains in the South-South region, as stipulated by the APC constitution.


The APC constitution requires that the presidency should alternate between regions to maintain balance and fairness. With President Tinubu potentially facing impeachment, Nigerians are keen to see this stipulation upheld.


If Vice President Shettima steps down, Senate President Godswill Akpabio would be next in line to assume the role of Acting President. Many Nigerians see Akpabio as a more suitable candidate to lead the country than Vice President Kashim Shettima, given his experience and leadership style.


The call for Vice President Shettima to step down is gaining momentum, with many Nigerians taking to social media to express their views. While some argue that Shettima's association with President Tinubu could compromise his ability to lead effectively, others believe that Akpabio's leadership would bring much-needed stability to the country.


The Nigerian Constitution outlines the order of succession, with the Vice President assuming the presidency in the event of a vacancy. The call is rooted in the desire to see Senate President Godswill Akpabio take the reins as the next Acting President of Nigeria. Many Nigerians are dissatisfied with the current administration's handling of economic and security issues.


The impeachment process is ongoing, with many Nigerians eagerly awaiting the outcome. If President Tinubu is impeached, the country will be watching closely to see who will take the reins.

gfelo:
that is why this Tinubu government is a scam just because wike help him rig election he is acting in favour of Wike, let it be in your mind that all the stupid policy is in favour of people that got him to presidential sit at expense of Nigeria, "when a clown becomes a king the palace becomes a circle"

A lawmaker can defect and cite division of his party as reason. When that happens, it is not you or the governor that can decide whether there is a division truly in the party or not.

If the lawmaker says there is a division in is party, you either believe him or go to court to disprove his claim. It is only the court that can order him to vacate the seat and not any governor or nairalander.

If the court of Appeal has already ruled that the 5-member loyal to Fubara are not properly constituted, the implication is that the remaining members are still valid lawmakers until a superior court rules otherwise. Since no court has ruled otherwise, the governor must respect the law and stop resulting to self help. Take the budget and other matters that requires legislative approval before them until the court rules that they are no longer members of the assembly.

What concerns Wike here. Court says Fubara should submit the state budget to the House of Assembly.

EmeeNaka:
If they successfully do that, then Fubara's group will not be able to prove that they defected and he will fail in his quest to remove them.

Their are process to be followed in leaving a party. For the princess to be completed, they must write to their ward chairmen notifying them of their withdrawal from the party. They will the go to join APC at the ward level and write to the Speaker of the house notifying him of their switch of party.

In this case, nothing of the above happened. They never withdrew their PDP membership at the ward level and never joined APC at the ward level. In fact, they never notified the speaker of the house of assembly of their defection. And even the PDP national leadership already told the court that the 27 lawmakers are still PDP members since there is no record of them informing the party of their defection.

So, they remain valid members of the Rivers State house of Assembly from the point of law.

Fubara should stop acting like a saint because he’s not one. One of the major point of the agreement was that the 2024 budget should be represented to the full Rivers State House of Assembly. The governor defiantly refused to do this and he’s now saying he was ambushed.

He wanted to ambush the other side by tricking them into withdrawing all their court cases and then refusing to implement the other parts of the agreement but they outwit him. He should go back and do the right thing before it is too late.

Nobody will stop Rivers Allocation, judgement is unenforceable----Opposition Lawmakers Coalition




The Opposition Lawmakers Coalition in Nigeria on Wednesday said the judgment to seize Rivers State allocation is an unenforceable height of judicial rascality, invitation to anarchy to the state.

The Lawmakers stated that nobody would stop the Allocation.

They decried the way Judge deliberately gave the judgment to seize RIvers Allocation despite knowing that there are pending cases on the legitimacy of the decamped Lawmakers.

...It's prejudicial to deliver Judgment for seizure of State Allocation when the Appeal Court/Supreme court have not decided on the legitimacy of the sacked pro-Wike Lawmakers, the Opposition Lawmakers Coalition added.

..The order for Rivers State allocation to be seized despite the issues been subject of an ongoing appeal, is a mockery of constitutional democracy, unenforceable and an invitation to anarchy - Opposition Lawmakers Coalition

..It's judicial rasacality to issue orders to seize Rivers State Allocation over issues that are pending at the Appeal Court. Judgement appealed, orders unenforceable - Opposition Lawmakers Coalition

..The order to seize Rivers Allocation is not enforceable as matters are still in Appeal Court. It's time for NJC to discipline Justice Abdulmalik- Opposition Lawmakers Coalition

The Opposition Lawmakers Coalition in Nigeria have described it as a height of judicial rascality, for the Abuja division of the Federal High Court presided over by Justice Abdulmalik Joyce to issue orders for the seizure of the Statutory State Allocation, when the issues involved and surrounding the decamped pro wike sacked lawmkers legitimacy are still pending at the Appeal Court and Supreme Court.

The Opposition Coalition declared the judgment as a legal coup against the likely outcome of pending appeals at the Court of Appeal and Supreme court on the same subject matter. It is unenforceable and an attempt to unleash constitutional anarchy against a Federating State and independent branch of government that have constitutional responsibility to the people.

The Opposition Coalition in a media conference by its National Spokesperson Ikenga Imo Ugochinyere described the judgment as a clear evidence that the Federal High Court have gone out of control and willing to do anything to favour the undemocratic interest of Wike's groups to the extent of attempting to seize constitutional funds of a sovereign people in pursuit of political interest of one man.

How can a judge who knows very well that the decamped lawmakers have lost their seats, still go ahead to order for the allocation to be seized in favour of those who have lost their seat while the issues are pending at different courts on whether they should be parading as Lawmakers.

You want to use the Federal High Court to undermine democracy and constitutional governance. The issue of legality of their decampment is still in court and you are rushing to order that budget be presented to them as who?

The opposition lawmakers said that the decision of Justice Abdulmalik Joyce and Chief Justice of the Federal High Court John Toso to proceed with the case despite pending petition against the clear evidence of bias against them shows that there is more to the case than meets the ordinary eye. How can petition of bias and evidence be presented before you and you still proceeded.

How can you be aware that all the subject matters are before the Appeal Court and Supreme Court and you still went ahead to attempt to do harm and damage to innocent tax paying people of Rivers who did nothing.

The Supreme Court have ruled on the sanctity of the LGA and State allocation as a sovereign wealth of the people that can't be seized as such funds are constitutional and can only be spent on the authority of that State or LGA. If the head of the state or LGA is not spending it well or spending it without necessary compliance with laid down regulations, the constitution gives you power to impeach such officer, if you have the numbers and legitimacy. So because the pro-Wike group know they have lost the legitimacy to be called lawmakers or perform legislative functions, they now rushed to court to use the court to attempt to carry out a financial coup against the Rivers people.

So after generating Oil revenue from the backyard of Rivers People, other states will take tbeir own share home and the people that produced the revenue will starve to death because the Federal High Court wants to please the Pro Wike Group , and you think this will bring peace to Niger Delta? The allocation is not a political fund or money meant for Gov. Fubara but official revenue of the entire people that covers their economic , health, security and welfare needs.

Imagine a worker being denied his salary or monthly earning after working for 30 days, imagine oxygen been switched off from hospitals because one man wants to rain down anarchy and constitutional crisis just to attempt to capture the wealth of the people which does not belong to him by using Federal High Court to overthrow the express provisions of the Constitution by attempting to seize their constitutional revenue.

The pro-Wike group and the Federal High Court Abuja have shown that they are anarchist and anti-people and warming up to ignite anger and confusion that can consume the current democratic settings like the shameful criss of the 60s and 80s.

The president is now going to be at the receiving end if anything happens to the funds of people of Rivers State. President Tinubu should remember that his government in Lagos secured the Supreme Court judgement during his fight with Obasanjo, which barred the seizure of LGA allocation , so he doesn't need to be reminded on what to do in the face of these manifest desire for constitutional anarchy by his appointees.

The opposition not only condemning the judgement which rubbished the Supreme Court exiting judgement that barrs the federal government or any organ of the federal government from seizing any State or LGA allocation but will do everything legally and humanly possible to ensure that the controversial ruling is quashed.

We have been informed that an appeal has been lodged against this anti-people judgement which is an invitation to anarchy.

The opposition calls on Rivers people, workers and citizens to mobilise for a day of protest against the ongoing agenda to use the Federal High Court Abuja and selected judges to create constitutional crisis in Rivers State . Warning that the dark days of the 60s and 80s are been prepared by these actions of political desperadoes and their friends at the Federal High Court, have now reached a boiling point that the Rivers and Nigerian people will rise up and reject vehemently.

Rivers State is the treasure base of the nation and you can't embark on a journey to starve the people and think peace can be maintained in such an atmosphere of anarchy.

Opposition is hopeful that upper courts will quash and throw into the Judicial dustbin these pro-Wike judgments which have become a huge embarrassment to the judiciary today and increased our people's loss of confidence in the judiciary.

We wish to urge the people to stand firm and rally together to end all these Political madness aimed at burning down Rivers State.

mrvitalis:
Lmaooo no court can stop allocation to a state... The judgement would be appealed and I'm sure there would be a stay of Exercusion

There is absolutely no basis for that judgement... The case about the house members are still in court so to base the judgement on that is weird

I would be surprised if the judge is not investigated
