sammytovic:
The reason for this has been due to many election litigation on sylva. Firstly, after winning under the ruling party PDP, the supreme court ruled that they should do another rerun. He won and supposed that the term will start counting after the run, court also ruled that the term has started counting from when the election was first conducted. He was booted out and an interim was put there. Fast forward to this time, the court now deem it that another 4years will exceed total number of 8years by almost 2 years. Like seriously, Sylva may have won if he has good lawyer
Exactly

The funny part is Tinubu cannot recontest any election in Naija again.
He cannot submit the forged results from
CSU again.
Or is it the Lagos Secondary School that he graduated from before the School was even built? Lol
Notice how he didn't include Deloitte among his work experience this time around.

Lmao. The madness of this country is like a soap opera
Tinubu will submit a fresh GCE from Nigeria or USA...
He will still submit CSU afterall pdp failed to prove it was forged

This is the case;

1. Sylva finished a distant 2nd in the Bayelsa Guber Primary to GEJ in 2007.

2. GEJ was nominated VP, Sylva snatched the Primary and went ahead to win in 2007.

3. The Appeal Court sacked Sylva alongside 4 other Govs (Adamawa, Cross-River, Kogi & Sokoto) in 2008, declaring a re-run.

4. The re-run took place in 2008 and all 5 Govs won and took another oath of allegiance.

5. INEC announced in 2010 that Governorship Elections for all 36 States will hold on April 15, 2011.

6. Sylva then having some friction with GEJ fought hard to win the Primary for a second term in Jan 2011. Many said when he came in as Gov in 2007, he claimed he met a State with no Govt, many debts and no development. He was one of the closest Govs to Yar'Adua.

7. With the doctrine of necessity and GEJ been in-charge temporarily, Sylva filed a suit through his lawyer, Femi Falana, asking the Court that his tenure started from 2008 when he took his second oath of allegiance, precisely May 25, 2008.

8. On Feb 23, 2011 the FHC agreed with him that his tenure will expire in 2012 and not in 2011.

9. INEC appealed, and the Court of Appeal in April 2011 agreed with the Federal High Court that the tenure should expire in 2012.

10. INEC thereafter shifted the Governorship Elections for these 5 States to 2012.

11. With Jonathan fully in-charge after YarAdua's death, another Primary was conducted. Sylva participated and was screened out, he went to Court saying that of January should suffice, that he was still the valid Candidate.

12. PDP argued that the January Primary was for the election slated for April 2011, with that date shifted, another Primary had to be conducted for the new date in 2012. Dickson was declared winner of the Primary.

13. INEC set the new date for elections in these five States for Feb 11 or 12, 2012 (can't remember).

14. Buba Marwa of the then CPC who lost to Nyako (the Adamawa Gov) with a leave of Court approached the Supreme Court to challenge the Appeal Court decision in April 2011, i.e to challenge the Appeal Courts decision in No 9 above.

15. Supreme Court set 27th January 2012, for judgement on the Marwa suit filed in 14 above.

16. In December 2011, the Supreme Court ruled that Sylva participated in the new Primary and was screened out, that it was the internal affairs of a domestic Party, hence the Apex Court affirmed Dickson as the PDP Candidate.

17. In a unanimous decision, the Supreme Court sitting in 7 and judgement read by Onnoghen... The Apex Court held that the tenure of a Governor or President is like the Walls of Gibraltar that can never be moved. That the election should have been conducted in 2011.

That even though there was a second oath of allegiance, it didn't invalidate the decisions they all made from 2007-2008, hence their tenures began to count from 2007.

It is settled law that the time fixed by the constitution for the doing of anything cannot be extended. It is immutable, fixed like the rock of Gibraltar. It cannot be extended, elongated, expanded, or stretched beyond what it states. To calculate the tenure of office of the governors from the date of their second Oaths of Allegiance and of Office while ignoring the period from 29th May, 2007, when they took the first oaths is to extend the four years tenure constitutionally granted the governors to occupy and act in that office which would be unconstitutional. It is therefore clear and I hereby hold that the second Oaths of Allegiance and of Office taken in 2008, though necessary to enable them continue to function in that office, were clearly superfluous in the determination of the four years tenure under Section 180(2) of the 1999 Constitution.

18. Dickson was declared winner in 2012.

19. Sylva went back to the Court in 2012, that since the Supreme Court said May 29, 2011 was the date their tenures should have expired, that as at May, he was the Candidate since the PDP had not conducted the Fresh Primary. Hence, he should be declared Governor since votes belong to the Party.

20. Sylva lost at the Federal High Court, Appeal Court, lost and was fined by the Supreme Court in 2013.


That is it!
Laws are not meant to be retroactive.
He was sworn in twice but elected once unlike gej...that law will start working on those with clean slates tabula rasa

Finally,the person that took the matter to court is neither an apc member nor an aspirant and even filed out of time.therefore,the matter is dead...

People praising the Governor have no clue how the market got burnt in the first instance. I practically live in Borno State. A fire incident that engulfed the whole market while the fire service is less than 1km away. A fire incident that happened on the night of the presidential election day when there were indications that APC was losing on account of market associations opting for Atiku.

By the way, those praising the Governor should visit the state to have first hand information. Apart from the interchange at Custom roundabout and a new one being built at Borno Express junction, which other significant development has happened in the state. Forceful relocation of IDPs from Maiduguri to their various LGAs without adequate support for their livelihoods and security. Most of them are sitting ducks for the insurgents. Kidnapping for ransom is happening on a daily basis and is largely unreported. Most communities have to pay taxes to the insurgents. Killings also happen often and also largely unreported. Borno needs critical support. I am Igbo by the way but I weep for that state
Why were they rooting for atiku

Since 2011 this is the first time Kabong ward was accepted that's why LP won the LGA. Also during the Gub the margin was 18k in favour of APC because a lot of youths love Nentawe. My brother is an APC agent in Naraguta B ward. In fact our pulling unit gave Nantawe 153 even though PDP won with over 300 votes but that's the highest APC ever got in that unit.
During 2011 reps rerun,it was accepted.even in 2015,despite massive votes from there,the late hon Ibrahim maitala still won Jos north bassa

It's conjectural and APC failed to prove over voting in any of the LGAs. That's why they are relying on non structure of the PDP

LP scored 112,000 votes in Jos South during the presidential. If LP was not on the option. That's natural PDP votes compare with the Gub where PDP Scored 84k and APC 35k

APC actually depends on rigging to secure victory special in Jos North after excluding Naraguta B and Kabong wards which has a combine voting strength of 200k. The bvas really eradicated those mechanics of rigging.

Similarly, the level of rigging in shendam was checked by the bvas that's why the low number

How do expect PDP to have meager votes in mangu when their son is contesting? In fact APC performed remarkable well compared to what PDP got in Kanke
Apc proved overvoting just that they didn't harmonize their figures abd didn't tender enough voters register plus their statistician was inconsistent.votes gotten by apc in naraguta was excluded.the higher courts may cancel Jos north,south and mangu and reconduct

Politics › Brass/nembe Council Of Chiefs Endorse Timipre/sylva by garfield1(op): 11:54am On Oct 24, 2023
Over Four Hundred Chiefs from Brass and Nembe Local Government Councils of Bayelsa State have endorsed the November 11 Governoship candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Timipre Marlin Sylva, saying that he has all that it takes to become the Governor of the state.

The Chiefs who made the endorsement on Tuesday in Yenagoa under the name of Conference of APC Chiefs stated that they endorsed Sylva because, for them, he is well-exposed and very accommodating.

Speaking at a press conference, the Chiefs maintained that they were drawn from Brass, Okoroma, Egweama, Beletiama, Okoroba, Liama, Odioma, Okpoama kingdom, Opu-Nembe Kingdom, Nembe City, Akassa Council of Chiefs among others.


The Chiefs said that they endorsed Sylva because, for them, there is no alternative to Timipre Sylva stating that he will remove the core Ijaw and non-core Ijaw dichotomy.

Speaking on behalf of other Chiefs, the Chairman of the Opu-Nembe Council of Chiefs, Yusuo Donald Theo-Iruo said ” The Nembe traditional council of Chiefs are the highest decision-making bodies in terms of political, economic and social life on behalf of their people.

” We have decided to make a political statement in respect of the forthcoming gubernatorial elections on November 11, it has become imperative for councils in these two Nembe-speaking areas to make a statement and we thank the federal government for giving us the opportunity to choose our leader again in November.

“We the entire Nembe nationality want to endorse and affirm that this Conference of APC Chiefs of Nembe/Brass local government areas have decided to adopt, affirm and endorse His Excellency, Timipre Marlin Sylva as the Candidate for these two local governments.


“We have made this affirmation that we will all go back to our communities where our councils are domiciled and ensure that Timipre Sylva is elected. There is no alternative to Chief Timipre Sylva as far as these councils are concerned because we believe that in Timipre Sylva, the councils across these local governments and the people will have a face in the governance of this state.

“In Timipre Sylva, we also strongly believe that the dividends of Democracy will go round to all the nooks and crannies not to only the Nembe speaking but to all nooks and crannies of Bayelsa State.


“We also re-affirm our belief and strong position on Sylva having known him during his first tenure when he was governor. We strongly believe that for now, he is more experienced, exposed and more connected and we believe that he will take us to the Bayelsa of our dreams where equity and fairness will be the hallmark of the people in Bayelsa.

“Today, we have decided to come and speak in one voice and then, we will also direct, co-ordinate and ensure that our people vote for Sylva. Today we stand with Timipre as the governor of Bayelsa come 2023.

“We want to see that we will be connected to the national through Sylva. We can’t exist in isolation from the stream of nation Politics and the only sure bet that will give us this as a people is Timipre Sylva. This is our position and it is incontestable and we must work towards achieving it.


Also speaking, Ebi Mathew Sonny-Goli Olofoni from Twom Brass said the endorsement was even delayed adding that “collectively we have come together to affirm our support for him.

He said “We are doing that because we are convinced and we believe that he has stood the taste of time in governance, well experienced to provide the dividends of Democracy Democracy in Bayelsa State.

“His purpose of coming back is to ensure that there is justice, equity, love, and unity in all areas of Bayelsa State. He is coming to break the yoke of core Ijaw and non-core Ijaw.

Chief Jephthah Kalaiti Obadiah of Nembe Kingdom (Basambiri) said “My Soul, my Spirit had long cried and wept because Sylva has not received this endorsement for so many years.

“His Aura and Energy touches the lives of our people and even beyond. He is an international name and a movement and if Bayelsans do not take advantage of his benevolence, strength, energy and creativity, we have lost something.

Kalu as a future Abia Gov?
Otti don buy land there, nobody is removing him for now anyways. Kalu, outside his Bende, is like fish out of water. That Tinubu Camp you keep mentioning is one of the reasons outside Bende nobody will listen to him.

Personally he is young and sounds intelligent but I am not from Bende so I do not know what he is doing there. If he needs to be Governor, he needs to start putting the visible work all over the State and the time is NOW.
Onyemenam is from Ebonyi. She came into the Appeal Court same day as in Ogbuinya (30/11/2010). She came in from the Customary Court. They can't send two people from Ebonyi at same time. Was the late Ngwuta not from Ebonyi too? Again, she is young (1964), Ogbuinya (1965).

Imo is the powerhouse in the SE. Presently, the only S-Eastern State with 3 Appeal Court Judges. It's always difficult to overlook them because unlike the Appeal Court, the Supreme Court needs people with EXPERIENCE and COURAGE.

Ojo came into the Appeal Court in 2018. No
Saidu Hussein from Kogi came in 2014. My sentiments are with Adah J.
Monica retires 2027, Sankey retires 2029....
Though I believe, she might not want to wait around, She is a woman, Christian (her husband is from KD) and Plateaulite just like Monica,. She doesn't know the disposition of the President, so she might decide to cut the chase and move up.
She must have made up her mind already.


Ogun doesn't have any Senior Judge... The only one Lokulo-Sodipe died earlier this year, Feb or so. Presently, they have only 1 Appeal Court Judge (Banjoko) who came in there in 2021.

Tunde Awotoye is Osun, but he is 66 y/o.
Ariwoola I know, will still pick someone from Oyo/Osun and for Tinubu... Oyewole is No 1 unless they just want Bada to taste the seat before retiring as a result of his hardwork (which I also advise). SW can only produce 1 more.

Omoleye, ex-Ekifi CJ... Ondo/Ekiti has been covered by Ogunwumiju. Moreover, she is 67 y/o.

Augie is retired already.
I agree with Kano/Jigawa because Abdu Aboki retired from the SC last year. He is from Kano. Tani Hassan JCA is also from Kano, she came into the Appeal Court in March 2014, alongside Shuaibu.

Balkisu Bello Aliyu is from Zamfara, came into the Appeal Court in June 2018. She is out of it!

Kaduna didn't have any Appeal Court Judge until last month. That's why 2 women were pushed up.
Taraba has 3: Danjuma, Andenyangtso & recently in 2021 (Bashir or so). Tsammani has blocked them! Tsammani/Danjuma came into the Appeal Court same day (16/7/2010)

Is the Appeal Court a place for enyendeba enyendeba?
Otti claims abia central therefore kalu has a chance in 2027 or 2031.

I think if SE wants to produce cjn,one or both of onyemenam and ogbuinya with years should go up alongside otisi or ogakwu or uwaoma(please indicate their years).
Anambra is the political and economic powerhouse of SE,you know this except it's military which is abia ebonyi but overall it's anambra except you mean in judiciary.

Bada is fiercely loyal to the adelekes so he is out of it.it is oyewole or bolaji Yusuf in the pepc.

Sankey might just wait then,it's better to be pca than a mere apex court Judge.tinubu won't mind except the north forces his hand but with the circumstances of her father death,she should clinch it.the promotions will tell.adah (year)should nick it,he's been there for a while and experienced though am not ruling out saidu(year).ikyegh(year) has gotten the other slot that's if Sankey isn't interested while maiwada(indicate year) has a slot already.

For nw,balkisu and jamilu tukurare out then till saulawa or garba goes.its Tani,shuaibu/alkali(indicate years)...Musa Hassan alkali is a khadi I think,he was promoted in 2014,you can check.

I'll have preferred andeyangtso because if experience.same class as of adah,ogbuinya etc.even bitrus sanga too but from Bauchi/gombe already loaded..

Out of the ten apex judges,7 are Muslims.therefore at least 6/7 of the 11 should be christians that's 3 from se,one SS,one SW,one or two NC,(I believe tsammani is a Christian).

Smart adeyemi lost at the apex court and was rightly fined.
I believe wike wife will get to the appeal court in the next batch of promotions.she should have made it between 2018-2023.at 51,she needs to get there before 2025.before 2031,she should be at the apex court though retiring at appeal is ok

For now it's PDP. Even the guber and HOAs results proved it. If you said Lalong was overwhelmed being DG to m/m ticket, what stopped APC from winning the lgas you call their stronghold in the guber/HOA seat?
Apc stronghold is Jos north,east,shendam,kanam,wase,pankshin.pdp stronggold is Jos south,bassa,riyom,barakin Ladi, langtang north and south.quan pan, mikang,kamke,bokkos are usually 50 50 and tight.apc lost because they lost this swing areas except kamke because nentawe is from them.secondly,their traditional areas failed to give bloc votes while mangu and jos south gave to pdp.an extra 10k votes from Jos north,shendam,kanam,wase would have turned the tide

Which Lalong handle security better? Just say he was the tool used by northern Oligarchs that's why Plateau people showed him the way out. Do you know how many villages have been under Fulani occupation under Lalong?
His body language gave strength to the terror war lots to continue harming Plateau People

The crises usually revolves around 4 LGAs of Jos North, South, Riyom and B/ladi but it has expanded to 8 LGAs under Lalong to Mangu, Bokkos, Bassa, and Jos East. The Fulanis keep on attacking those LGAs with nonchalanity always displayed by Lalong

the votes Nentawe got was because he was youth friendly not because Lalong handle anything. In fact APC made a remarkable inroads into PDP strong hold because people love Nentawe: for instance, Riyom, Jos South and Langtang South APC performance was first of kind on the Plateau.
He was friendly to the Hausa Fulani because they gave him bloc in Jos north,wase and kanam in his two elections.a lot of people don't like nentawe,he is unknown and inexperienced and like a third term of Lalong.the 40k margin of victory was from mangu.if apc had suppressed mangu,he wouldn't have won.
The bvas data shows overvoting in naraguta and kabong and even mangu.
If apc had done well in pdp areas as you said,they would have won.the difference was just bloc votes in mangu and lack of bloc votes from shendam,Jos north and kanam.apc usually wins here by plus 40k.

LP won in the Presidential election with 70k votes in Jos North. During the Guber, APC won with 18k difference that's 83 and PDP 64k

Nothing like rigging in Mangu. Natural it's there son, they gave 77k to APC 25k that's about 70℅ compared to what Kangke gave PDP 6k votes to 35k that's about 90℅

APC lost Plateau because the state does not look like where there's Governor
Pdp also lost its stronghold like Jos south to lp in presidential,infact apc beat pdp in the presidential race in plateau while pdp cleared nass which shows you where each party focus was.
Lalong handled plateau better than Jang,there was more peace under him.why apc lost is because of internal rancour,a lot were angry with the imposition of nentawe who is a cousin to lalong.the lp candidate is even from apc so he was dividing apc votes.a core party person like prof tyoden,sen dimka,hon gagdi,hon Patrick dakum would have easily won.several apc stakeholders like sen daduut,Mrs pauline tallen,dimka etc worked against apc while pdp was united.that 40k margin could have been breached.the 50k lp had was mostly for apc.pdp reached their maximum voting strength except in langtang south and riyom while apc could have had additional 10k in shendam, additional 10k in wase, additional 10k in Jos north,additional 20k in kanam and kamke.they could have won or bracketed quanpan and mikang.

Bada might be compensated as well since he has a few years to go. He was amongst the first set of Judges appointed when Osun was made a State in '91.

Bada is 68. Oyewole is 10 years younger.

Kekere-Ekun was 55 when she went to the SC.
Ogunwumiju was 63 (because she was the only Appeal Court Judge from Ondo @ the time)
Ariwoola was 57

That's if she intends to go.

Wambai was 2014.

Tobi should relax. He is the son of Justice Niki Tobi.

Biobele's twin brother is VC, UNIPORT. One thing that is good is that they are all under 60.


Gumel is 66, he should be compensated biko.
Bilkisu might nick it, she is from Zamfara.
Gumel and Shuaibu are both from Jigawa.

True.
I see kalu as a future abia governor.kalu will pull more weight since he's with the tinubu camp unlike uzodinma that is neither here nor there...

With odili being from imo,iheme won't get it.it has to be uwaoma or otisi(one person from abia) and someone from anambra.since they don't have someone apart from obiora,their nearest catchment state which is Enugu will get it which will be onyemenam or ogakwu at least to cover for the loss of nweze and ogbuinya or if iheme gets it, ogbuinya loses out.

I think for NC,it is settled though I won't be surprised to see one of ojo,wambai or Saidu Hassan making it.sankey will retire same time as Monica so she better goes up.
I forgot,Bada can't go.it will be Joseph alongside oyebisi omoleye or Tunde omotoye to cover ondo/ekiti and Oyo osun with ariwoola retiring and Lagos Ogun filled up.

With saulawa representing katsina/ kad and garba representing kebbi/sokoto/zamfara plus Augie from that zone,the next one has to be Kano jigawa.with gumel old, Mohammed shuaibu should replace him along with Tani Hassan from Kano or balkisu bello(I don't know her state).worst case will be justice alkali from kaduna..
I'll have preferred justice John from taraba instead of tsammani.for SS,it is oho vs bayelsa..

Has wike wife moved to appeal court?

Only ringing but the jinx has been broken with the introduction of Bvas machine

That's why Narraguta B ward with 109k registered and Kabong Tudun ward with 95k registered voters are usually cancelled to give APC an edge in Jos North but not anymore
Still,apc won Jos north by 20,000 during guber.if apc had gotten another 20,000 from there and shendam,they would have won.mangu rigging shocked apc

Maybe in Rivers & Oyo.
Not in Abia, even Enugu has left Ugwuanyi behind.

Imo & Enugu have benefitted the most.
Since last week nah.
Political leader in SE with Uzodinma doing what?
I believe the deputy speaker ship position is higher than gov although with lesser power,influence and money ofcourse.since three are coming from se,each must be from the three states.i don't like nwosu iheme,she's too hardlined and radical.so SE should be ogbuinya,obiora and uwaoma...

SW own will definitely be Joseph oluwole or bada .Tinubu might wait till ariwoola retires before bringing them.the only other chance he will have to bring Joseph is in 2028 when Helen,kekere and ogunwumiju will retire but anything can happen before then.oyewole will be a future cjn after tijani abubakar as he has till 2035..

For NC,both ikyegh and adah won't go.it will be done on two state basis.hannatu Sankey naturally should get the nod for plateau/benue and the entire nc.ikyegh will get the nod over adah since his own has been pending since 2019 to represent kogi/plateau.it will be maiwada or Saidu husein for the kogi/nasarawa slot and oniyangi from kwara will surely go up.you know how tinubu loves kwara plus cjn will push.adah or any other loser will queue or Amina wambai from niger
For SS,akwa cross is out.biobele Georgewill is also on the board or tobi or oho for delta edo.any loser here waits till 2028 when okoro retires.
For nw,Ali gumel is first choice for jigawa/Kano alongside balkisu aliyu to fill the female slot or Muhammed shuaibu.

If not for tsammani,the next slot hoes to taraba/adamawa.
