It's a very big victory for the good people of Rivers State. Amaechi ntooorr!!!

Ali Ndume can actually do a Saraki, it is allowed. Oshiomole and APC should stop imposition already, learn from the past. But who cares if PDP gets the DSP again, that will be kind of sweet. The 8th Assembly was surely one of the best in history, aligning and refusing to align with the executive at different times in the Nation's interest.

PDP Presidential Candidate 2023. Heir Apparent
His main competitor for the party’s ticket Kwankaso couldn’t deliver Kano so it’s a double victory for Aminu.
Everyone vastly underestimated him but he delivered for PDP in the presidential and held on to the governorship despite the strong opposition against him and his narrow pre-rerun lead.
He’s intelligent and cosmopolitan and would make a fine president. He should work on strengthening his national profile and delivering for the Sokoto people who stood with him.
Wike was proved right for backing him in the PDP’s primaries, he has Atiku’s modern and cosmopolitan outlook without the corruption baggage.

Like it is the North West that will rule Nigeria forever. Tambuwa, kwakwanso and the likes should forget about being a president already. Next in line is the South East/South West for 8yrs, North East/North Central will follow suite for another 8yrs. Then back to the South. Unless the regional distribution is not followed, present guys from North West should kiss presidency goodbye.

ELECTION TRIBUNALS

Election Tribunals in Nigeria are the direct creation of Section 285 of the nation’s Constitution which provides for the establishment of the National Assembly, Governorship and Legislative Houses Election Tribunal. The Constitution also gives original jurisdiction to the Court of Appeal over certain categories of election petitions. The Electoral Act made pursuant to the Constitution furnishes details pertaining to the establishment, membership, jurisdiction and proceedings of each Election Tribunal.


Election Tribunals have original jurisdiction to hear and determine petitions as to whether a person has been validly elected into non-appointive offices under the government of Nigeria at the Federal and State levels. The offices which elections are subject to the tribunals include Senators, Members of House of Representatives, Governor and Deputy Governor of each of the 36 States of the Federation, and Members of the 36 State Houses of Assembly.



Each Election Tribunal is established for the purposes of hearing and determining petitions as to whether any person through an undue election or return has been elected to an office/position and other related issue



The 1999 Constitution recognises three Election Tribunals:

1. National and State House of Assembly Election Tribunals for disputes arising from elections into legislative offices at the federal and state levels. Appeals from its decision lie to and terminate at the Court of Appeal;

2. Governorship Election Tribunals for disputes arising from elections into the Office of the Governor or Deputy Governor of any of the 36 States. Appeals from its decision lie to the Court of Appeal but may still extend to the Supreme Court as final judicial authority;

3. Court of Appeal conferred with original jurisdiction to hear petitions arising from election the Office of the President and Vice President of the Republic. Appeals from here lie to and terminate at the apex court: the Supreme Court.



The Electoral Act, 2010 also creates an Area Council Election Tribunal for the Federal Capital Territory. The decision of the Area Council Election Tribunals on Area Council Elections is final. The Electoral Act does not create the Election Tribunals to entertain disputes arising from Local Government Council Elections in any of the 36 states in recognition of Nigeria’s federal structure. However, there are Local Government Election Tribunals established by the Law of States for this purpose.



Procedurally, the Election Tribunals are neither criminal nor civil Courts. Though essentially civil in nature, they are usually described as “sui generis” which means “in a class of its own.

Fraudophobia:
I normally don't bother commenting on nairaland. I just post my news and go. However I make an exception this time.

PDP is doing everything negative to win.

They have been accusing the APC of rigging just so everyone would be monitoring APC while they do their own rigging.

The two people who tried to blow up the bridge in Ebonyi are ipob members and they have been arrested. I can bet they are working for PDP.

The Kaduna killings was surely a PDP doing and aimed at wanting the people to retaliate but el rufai responded swiftly and the killers have been arrested.

They want to scuttle tomorrow at all costs. From massive deployment of fake news to deaths to rigging

Oga, no one was killed in Kaduna yesterday, get your facts right. Its all fake from hellrufai

celebgistz:
PDP presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar has reacted to the killings of 66people in kaduna which happened this evening.

He wrote:

“No one deserves to die over an election. Whichever way it goes, we are bound by a common heritage. I urge for calm & respect for all persuasions. It is my hope security be stepped up in hotspot areas. May the souls of the scores of lives lost in the Kaduna crisis rest in peace.”

NO ANY KILLING IN THE KAJURE, KADUNA STATE. IT IS A FAKE NEWS FROM STRONG SOURCE.

ANALYSIS BETWEEN APC and PDP GOVERNMENT OF I6YEARS AND 31/2YEARS

ON MAJOR COMMODITIES

Rice
APC-N15,000-N11,500 =N4,500
PDP-N11,500-N2,500 =N9,000

PETROL
APC N145-N87 =N58
PDP N87-N11 =N76

U.S $
APC N360-N235 =N125
PDP N235-N20 =N215

CEMENT
APC-N2,500-N2,000 =N500
PDP-N2,000-N400 =N1,600

Who then created poverty and hunger in the land

Spread it all to everyone out there on the street..

You can as well multiply the APC's differences by 4.57 to get the equivalent in 16years of PDP. Mathematics no go kill me. Next level is always a harder one, if you know you know!!!

*OSUN PDP PRIMARY ELECTION: DAYLIGHT ROBBERY *

Total number of vote cast : 3425votes
Void : 56 votes
OKE: 3 votes
AKINBADE : 52 votes
DEMOLA: 1569 and

1st recount request:
OGUNBIYI : 1559
2nd recount request:
OGUNBIYI: 1562

3rd recount request: recounting denied.

Going by 2nd recount results:
{56+3+52+1569+1562=3242)

3425-3242=183 votes missing after counting and recounting.

The fraudsters forgot that they have a smarter aspirant contesting against them.

It is not about who owns the missing votes. It is about the integrity of the entire process.

I hope our party leaders - SWC and NWC realize the grave danger this poses to the party because as it is now, PDP have no candidate yet for Osun 2018 governorship election.

A party that is trying to redeem its image should not be found wanted in this kind of integrity issues again.

Newly energized voters have been badly hurt and turned off by this incidence. It will require a lot of effort to bring them back. I am afraid if it is redeemable

We shall see where they keep Dr Akin Ogunbiyi's and his teaming supporters votes.

Akin Ogunbiyi, omo ileogbo,ijayi Egan omo arepopanda.

Ogunbiyi is a good candidate but Adeleke is whom PDP needs to win the election based on senatorial district issue.
Let's give it to Osun West this time around, they have been patient enough.

jamaola:
This can actually be the big blow for APC as the oyetola is from Osun Central, a Senatorial district that has ruled for more than 11+ yrs out of the 21 democratic years of the State.

PDP just need a strong candidate from Osun West senatorial district, good campaign and set house in order. The likes of the former governor Olagunsoye Oyinlola from Osun central is against picking candidate from any district other than Osun West, and has promised to back a young and vibrant candidate from the district irrespective of the party. He is presently a member of APC at state level, though on same side with Obasanjo. Osun west has ruled just 22 months, less than 2yrs of Osun state's 21yrs Democratic rein

This can actually be the big blow for APC as the oyetola is from Osun Central, a Senatorial district that has ruled for more than 11+ yrs out of the 21 democratic years of the State.

Aregbesola’s chief of staff coasting to victory in APC primary
With 50,451 votes in 12 local government areas, Adegboyega Oyetola, chief of staff of Rauf Aregbesola, incumbent governor of Osun state, is inching close to securing the ticket of the All Progressives Congress (APC) for the September 22 governorship poll.
The results of the exercise are being collated at the party’s secretariat in Osogbo, the state capital.
Oyetola is leading Najeem Salam, speaker of the Osun state house of assembly, who is his closest rival with a margin of 37,587.
Salam has polled 12,864 votes so far while Yusuf Lasun, deputy speaker of the house of representatives, comes a distant third with 8,343 votes.
The collation is ongoing.
More to follow…

That was really a good analysis and clear write up. Having analysed the different loop holes, been out bided and lost warriors (just the way you put it) on the side of PDP and Fayose, one question must then be asked, "why was Fayose ( no, Eleka) defeated by less than 20,000 votes? "
Fayose must really be a god (just as you put it). He sure would have won if he was the contestant!!

Guys, help, must one fill the NUBAN number?

Please guys, I am having problem with the On-demand video part. During the practice I couldn't hear my voice but the video went well.

I can not move on to the Interview proper since the voice it not that good. Help me, biko.

These are men of God that are well respected and have many followers, any word from them showing disregards for the other religion can lead to war, war i know can get us no where. So, they are on the right course, meeting with the government to address religious rift and bias. My candid advice goes to the Islamic leaders, please begin to teach your followers to practice what you said Islam stands for ' Islam, a religion of peace'
