So, in 2015 APC through Hon. Gbajabiamila took Jonathan to Court...


March 23, 2015 Ben Ezeamalu

President Goodluck Jonathan lacks the power to deploy soldiers for the conduct of election without the approval of the National Assembly, a federal court ruled Monday.

Justice Ibrahim Buba of the Federal High Court in Lagos held that the practice of deploying troops of the Nigerian Armed Forces in the conduct of elections when there is no uprising is “anti-democratic” and not in tandem with civil rule and constitutional democracy.

“The armed forces have no role in elections,” the judge said.

“The time has come for us to establish the culture of democratic rule in the country and to start to do the right thing particularly when it has to do with dealing with the electoral process which is one of the pillars of democracy.

“In spite of the behaviour of the political class, we should by all means try to keep armed personnel and military from being a part and parcel of the electoral process.

“The state is obligated to confine the military to their very demanding assignment, especially in this time of insurgencies by keeping them out of elections. The state is also obligated to ensure that citizens exercise their franchise freely and unmolested.”

Femi Gbajabiamila (APC, Lagos), a member of the House of Representatives, had filed the suit before the court seeking a declaration that deployment of soldiers during elections in illegal and unconstitutional.

Joined as respondents in the suit were Mr. Jonathan; the Chief of Defence Staff; the Chief of Army Staff; the Chief of Air Staff; the Chief of Naval Staff; and the Attorney-General of the Federation.

The deployment of soldiers during previous elections held in Ondo, Anambra, Ekiti, and Osun were contrary to the Nigerian Constitution, Mr. Gbajabiamila’s lawyer, Seni Adio, told the court.

The judge backed the lawyer’s arguments, noting that the president lacks the powers to deploy soldiers any time he wants.

Mr. Buba dismissed the respondents’ arguments that Mr. Gbajabiamila did not have the legal right to institute the suit and that the court lacked jurisdiction to entertain the suit.

He also dismissed their arguments that the soldiers are needed to ensure peaceful polls, noting that the military was not needed for such civil duties.

Recently, a Court of Appeal in Abuja barred the use of soldiers in the conduct of elections, stating that it was a violation of Section 217(2)(c) of the Constitution and Section 1 of the Armed Forces Act.

The appellate court had relied on a judgment by a Federal High Court in Sokoto last January also barring the use of armed forces in the conduct of elections.

Mr. Buba said that he was bound by the appellate court’s decision and quoted copiously from its ruling.

The judge said that the law does not make provision for the military to be involved in civil activities, and if soldiers must vote, it must be in their barracks.

He also said the appellate court directly interpreted the Constitution when it held that Sections 215 and 217 jointly limit the president’s power to deploy soldiers to the suppression of insurrection and to aid the police to restore order when it has broken down.

“I am bound by the decision of the Court of Appeal and equally persuaded by the decision of Federal High Court, Sokoto, which also persuaded the Court of Appeal.

“It is in this regard that the court will say that its duty in interpreting the constitution has been simplified and made easy by the decisions I have referred to extensively.”

What Buhari should have said was that "Any one caught snatching ballot box will be arrested and duly punished in accordance with the provisions of the law of the land" instead of urging the military to shoot at sight....

This is what any democratically inclined president will say..
Well what do i know when his wife already addressed him as GMB....

2 Ways To Relocate To Canada This Year

It is no longer news that Canada is one of the best countries in the world with a perfect system in place.

No wonder many Nigerians are relocating to start a new life over there especially with the condition of the country

I am not one to say "don't relocate"

If the conditions of this country is frustrating you, then feel free to move.

Even our so called leaders and politicians have second passports to other countries.

And they have also secured same for their close family members.

With that said, if you intend to relocate to Canada this year, there are 2 ways to do so.

(1) You can get a Canada immigration agent to assist you with the process.

You can find many of them via Google.com

The 2 problems with this method are:

i. You will spend at least N2m in extra fees and this fee won't be refunded if your application does not go through. If you browse online forums,
you will come across various people's stories as regards this

ii. You will still have to do most of the work yourself even if your application goes through. The agent will just collect his money to guide you.

--

(2) The second way is to handle the processing yourself.

Many people don't do this because they lack the necessary information on how to do this right.

If you already have all your documents right, you can finish the process in 10 months.

If you handle your Canada relocation project yourself, you are going to save a lot of money as a result and even speed up the process.

Why do you have to pay an agent N2m or more when you can use all that money to pay for your flights and other important things?

The good news is that you can now get all the step by step guidance you need to relocate to Canada yourself from someone who has already
done it for himself and many others.
