seunmsg: The FCT is a federal administrative territory. Nigerians all over the country decides who rule the country and consequently the FCT. That’s why it is lawmakers from all over the country that make laws for the FCT and not FCT house of assembly. Once a candidate wins the majority of valid votes from all over the country and has the required 25% in 25 states irrespective of how FCT residents voted, the candidate has won the right to rule the country and FCT territory which is the seat of the president.
FCT was specially created by the federating states to house the federal government as decided by the rest of Nigerians. FCT residents have no special status more than any other Nigerian and they have no power to veto the votes of the rest of the country.
Ofunaofu: From the picture, one can observe that Peter Obi is very relaxed, going about with his normal life, pursuing a course in the most civil manner ever seen while those who grabbed, stole and run away with the people's mandate are jittery, angry and displaying acts capable of causing chaos and disorder
Election no be war
Relaxed or look scared. The mofo was scared as fuvk
GreyLaw: Kyase, let's leave politics aside. Do you know have any sense of morality? How about agreeing that there was rigging, even though we know Tinubu has been declared? I fear for the future of Nigeria when people can no longer tell the truth for the sake of tribalism and whatever differences in their minds.
None of the contestants were from my tribe, so what are you saying
No election is perfect but happens to be the best in Nigeria history
Okwyjesus: They gave NW speaker and Deputy SP. Leaving SE with deputy speaker and NC with nothing. Winner takes it all politics will kill Nigeria under this APC
Pinkybae: What verdict do we expect from lopsided northern panel of judges? Even in the US 🇺🇸 jury reflects the ethnicity of victim and suspect in murder cases.
In this case, was the murder of democracy in a multi ethnic nation. And here we go again, judges from the region that wants to subjugate all of us will be presiding the tribunal 😡
Won't be wasting my time watching this Charade let alone covering it . I already know the end from the beginning. I will be happy to be pleasantly surprised, thou.
This country can't be trusted to do what's fair and just let alone transparent in their operations.
Abeg make una tell me the outcome 🏃♀️🏃♀️🏃🏃🏃
Sickening 😡😡
Good god WTF
Not until last two years, the US supreme court had only two black judges

fergie001: This is not how it works. I have answered it in my reply below. Your case have to be proven in toto.
There were irregularities but let me tell you, there is no time to deal with cases in our Presidential Electoral System.
The Courts know there are irregularities but they have to be isolated one after another, PU by PU.. we have 176, 000+ in 3 months, how?
With all the necessary and unnecessary adjournments? Oral and written documentary evidence?
When Olanipekun starts pressing with his unnecessary delays and time-wasting tactics, you will understand.
How? My point is simple, one State can fall, maybe two but will it be enough to upturn the difference between Tinubu and Atiku/Obi?
In 2007, the SC sided with the Appeal Court and cancelled the Presidential Elections in Imo State because there was widespread electoral irregularity and violence. When Buhari & Atiku pressed for total cancellation, the SC said no.
That there was violence in some places, LGAs, PUs doesn't mean the elections should be totally cancelled. 2007 was the cruelest of our elections system..
This is not Governorship Elections, this is Presidential..... It is more difficult to prove your cases as a Petitioner than as a respondent.
Let me tell you what happened in Oyo in 2019. At the Governorship tribunal, the Tribunal had no time because of the tactics of Makinde's lawyer. They passed a verdict to beat the 180 days timeline without either upturning of affirming the results. They said NOTHING! It was the SC that did that....
When the case starts proper, we will deal with the IReV, BVAS issue.
