The Supreme Court has ruled on this many times so other Courts won't digress.

Okay boss
You lead and i follow

fergie001:
Because the APM has no locus standi.

It held that the trial court ab-initio did not have the requisite jurisdiction to entertain the suit since the APM lacked the locus standi to institute the action.

Good point
But this is nigeria, where High court has differen interpration to appeal court, and appeal court to supreme court

fergie001:
Well, having read the submissions of the APC in response to the LP's petition:

This is just the defendant's reply to the petition, we have not even gotten to the pre-hearing stage, let alone proper trial.

The LP now has 7 days to apply for pre-hearing or 5 days to respond to the defendant's new facts which I believe there is.
However, it is expected that the Tribunal will respond to the Objections first, during the ruling proper.

A Presidential election petition of this magnitude will naturally not dwell on technicalities.

1. That Obi was not a registered member of the LP before May 24 last year.

This is at best puerile. Does the APC have the locus standi to challenge? NO.

a. Once there is no locus standi, there is no jurisdiction. Jurisdiction is the lifeblood and existence of any case. Once there is no jurisdiction, no matter how finely delivered a case is ruled upon, it becomes null and void, ab initio.

Only a member of the LP can challenge the membership of Peter Obi. The Court can best describe the APC as meddlesome interlopers and busybodies.

b. This matter is a pre-election matter. Membership, nomination and sponsorship of any Candidate in a political party is a pre-election issue that should be filed not more than 14 days after the cause of action at the FHC.

Same suit was brought up by a political party, the APM and the Appeal Court ruled in February 2023, that they do not have the locus. The PEPT or SC will not even delve into the merits but shut it out for lack of locus standi.

2. Non-joinder of Atiku Abubakar & PDP
This again should likely not upturn anything. This is an election petitions tribunal and it is declaratory in nature.

It is an independent and individualistic appeal, at best, this is academic considering that the PDP & her Candidate are also in Court. It is urging the Court to subject to intellectual argument and satisfy intellectual prowess which cannot answer the questions in the live issues to be determined in the suit.

3. Arrangement of tables, etc.

Is this enough to throw out the petitions before we even get to the stage of hearing in the petitions? In my humble opinion, NO.

I believe all 3 Objections will be dismissed so that we can really listen to the REAL ISSUES.

What the defendant has done is not unexpected, raise up issues to dismiss the suit.

Okay boss
But the apm case was dismissed for lack of evidience not because apc lacks jurist
And i believe apc has that(evidence)

Totally agreed with the rest

All cases in the court is just a waste of time

Nothing will be overturned
Tinubu presidency to 2027

And obi this morning delete his resignation tweet
Hahaha

The dude was never qualified to contest
Na this one to vex atiku pass

Ikea81:
Keep laughing. The 25percent issue can be decided in a week. That's the koko of that petition..the rest is to send the BAT and his gangs of thieves to exile for LIFE!

Abuja 25% is actually not a case lol

Those SANs wan cashout

Dem never born the person wey go no make tinubu president come may 29, unless Buhari

Make una prepare to jepa

Penguin2:
I’ve seen/read a lot of Tinubu supporters making statements like “the case will drag on for 3 years” and similar things in response to Peter Obi’s case in court against Tinubu’s victory in the last election.

Well, do not know if they have been making those statements out of ignorance or they deliberately want to misinform the public.

Well, I’m here to educate them and the rest of Nigerians, that Election Petition dragging on for years is a thing of the past that has been taken care of by Amendments to the constitution.

This amendment was made to ensure that wrong candidates who were wrongly declared at the polls do not enjoy the privilege of such office for years before being booted out of office through the courts.

To this end, the lifespan of Election Petition Tribunals was pegged at 90 days for each the Election Petition Tribunal, Appeal Court and Supreme Court. That’s cumulative of 270 days that an election thief can hold onto a stolen mandate from the time that the petition was filed in court.

This is the reason why the former governor of Imo State, Emeka Ihedioha, spent just about 8 months in power before he was sacked by the Supreme Court. Again, if you have followed Election Petitions in recent years in Nigeria, you’d have realized that no Election Petition has lasted up to one year from the Tribunal to the Supreme Court.

However, it becomes different in the Presidential Election Petition because the Presidential election petition originates at the Appeal Court and not the High Court/Tribunal. What this means is that the Presidential Election Petition Tribunal MUST decide the petition within 90 days from the day the case was filed in court. Any party who disagrees with the ruling of PEPT would now proceed to Supreme Court which MUST also give its ruling within 90 days.

What this means is that the PEPT can decide to give judgment within 30 days or 50 days, but MUST not exceed 90 days. Same thing applies to the Supreme Court.

This goes to say that if Peter Obi and his Lawyers push for a speedy trial as many people are advocating, and get it, the election petition can be decided before May 29th.

Meanwhile, Tinubu and his Lawyers have 21 days from the day they were served with the Petitioner(s) case to respond to the case. They have just about 6 days to that after which trials will begin proper.

So, next time you hear Tinubu boys say that the Election Petition can drag on till infinity, just laugh at their ignorance and move on.

The bold is what then?,stop trying to be clever by half,you're just pained that your useless PDP was voted out and you can't stomach that,so you have to wish his village evil.i hate people like you and I pray the bold happen to you since you so want herdmen to kill some people badly.

The dude is just in pains

Chucks13:
Just waka pass because those ipob kids can't reason independently to understand your message. Read their comments you will understand what I'm saying, to them only anaechi and Wike are betrayers but obi is second Jesus.

Don't waste your data bro.

I no dey even reply them again

tesppidd:
There are over 10 thousand top politicians in Nigeria and only less than 10 can become President and VP over a 40 year period.

There are many other big achievements in this country besides being President and VP.

Wike can never be President or VP. Might never even be a senior minister.

Wait and see

tesppidd:
Wike betrayed Christians and betrayed his party PDP by working for Tinubu.

Is it a religous war?
As your master obi said

mii4u:
If u no add Obi to ur post the thing no go make sense abi? Anyway sha prepare ur mind cos Obi is reclaiming his mandate.

Mandate wey the mad man in onitsha steal?

JONSYN7154:
kyase did you see this?

Saw the news
The question is

Why always guma

press9jatv:
everyone knows that you are APC wailer, no value you have for the party in Benue State. No hope in fr Alia government coming, no actions so far in stopping these heinous killings in Benue State. Only for you to be playing the blame game cards as usual. Keep it up

Go back to my post on ortom, when he was in apc, then you will know where im coming from

successmatters:
Always filled with hate.

Me or you?

press9jatv:
😂 spokesman of Kyase, kyase is no well to be found. He has been mute all this while cos’ Pdp doesn’t win the poll. Now killings continue. Keep on wailing and not take drastic measures in destroying these terrorists groups in their tents.

I be apc through and through, a proud agbado boy, so what are you saying

ObiORBiafra:
You are explaining betrayal to IPOB cum obi supporter? Wish you luck

Toh

DMerciful:
Thats how you justify the sidelining of Amaechi inspite of what he has done for the APC since 2014, even betraying his own people. APC has finished Amaechi, he had it coming alright

Amaechi is at fault on what is happening to him now
Just like obi, he can never become president or vp

Softmirror:

I ASKED YOU IS THAT WHAT YOU WISH?! KYASE OBVIOUSLY IS A BETTER PERSON THAN YOU ARE.

See better person

Finestgurlie:
don't talk to me
I don't love you

Haba when we do breakup wey i no know

Nobody is going anywhere, we die here

Chapii:
A picture that says a Thousand words but they will never learn.

Amaechi betrayed apc and his friends in apc from the north by working for atiku in pdp while in apc

press9jatv:
Na Ortom you dey blame now. You never see what will hit you in the coming days in your village. Infact fr Alia you guys voted will decamp to Pdp of Lp when the killings is unbearable and the drug baron Tinubu you guys elected into power is in abroad taking care of his health.

Firstly, Glad you finally accepted defeat, shey you go dey alright

Secondly, alia will do wonders in benue and remain in apc

Lastly, herdsmen killing will die a natural dead

Finestgurlie:
Kyase said nothing happened because he hates igbos that hates fulani

Dont worry, i will take you to benue and you will hear first hand what's going on

press9jatv:
When I was shouting on top my voice about the bad omen of Ortom in this election 🗳 and its outcome, clueless kyase and others was on this platform attacking me. I guess the Fulani herdsmen never attack his village yet, his village is next cos’ the plans of Fulani herdsmen killers is to killed and destroyed the Benue state land in order to bring emirs in the land. You never see anything yet. Even their so called Father Alia they elected as the Benue State Governor will be tired in the long run. Avoid APC with the strength you have. They are all deadly and wicked. The good people of Osun State and other State have done that . The heinous killings in the new government of fr Alia of APC.

We in Benue already know whats going on

Ortom is the one organising these killings to claim lands

Why do you think he lost his eletion

LadyExcellency:
There is nothing like North being a people in Nigeria.

If you doubt ask yourself why is the 12 Core Northern States defined by law as Sharia States and the Middle Belt States are not. Use your head. It's either you are here or there.

The core north dont impose theirselves on anybody, they operate like the romans in conquest
This only show how liberal they are.....

Capich?

bigpriik:
How can you looseguard so much to the point that foreigners will come to your land and kill 45 people in one day?is it that you don't have emen in ur land,or are tivi people no longer the warriors they use to be ?the worst part is that they keep doing this over and over again without retaliation,can't the youths form a vigilante group to watch over you day and Night? these herdsman are men like you with two balls and one preek why fear them.

Go to benue and ask them, the news carriers and ortom to show you where all these killings are happening and they wont show you anywhere.
I have said enough
