Look at this proud common criminal that rigged Rivers state votes by killing voters, bribing INEC officials and writing results in his bedroom in Obio Akpor trying to swindle us about what we already know .


Even Tinubu supporters were begging INEC to remove the rigged Rivers votes from Tinubu's total votes, because they fear it would negatively affect Tinubu at tribubal and courts. The daylight rigging was so obvious and crude. The evidence stuck out hard and stubborn like phallus of Priapus the Greek god.

Ofcourse that's Wike's methodology, always crude and unrefined way of rigging.

What a pity

SeverusSnape:
Obi is surely the man of the moment to everyone, data boys included. If they don't talk about the man, their day is incomplete.

Daguccizgreat:
One thing with you data boys is that you all think everyone on here is broke like you. I'm a business owner who makes a profit of at least half a million every month. Know your class boy

People will always leave the subject matter and

⚫️ engage in whataboutism.

⚫️ insult or attack people.

⚫️ try to derail the thread

Because they cannot think and respond to the sense, logic and issues in the original post.

How come nobody had attended to this before now?

The Catholic Church has a rule to suspend a priest from Eucharistic Celebrations if such priest is in political office so as not to combine politics with religion.

As soon as he is out of political office, he would be returned to his Priesthood. It is a normal thing in the Catholic Faith.

In legislative matters , there's what is referred to as the the repeal-and-re-enactment doctrine combined with a savings clause.

This is exactly what the ammended 2022 Terrorism law is.


The electoral law has been amended severally under this doctrine of repeal-and-re-enactment doctrine.

If we are to go by your argument , that means every elected official sworn into office using the old electoral laws prior to the enactment of the latest ammended electoral bill are invalid and as such should be stripped of their titles as former elected officials

The doctrine of repeal and re enactment exist in both legislative and legal matters because it makes provisions for preserving the tenets of a previous law while seeking to expand on it.

The 2022 ammended Terrorism law even stated a clause upholding all provisions in the old law and it's applications .

What you are blindly arguing against has several precedence in law.

Section 33 of the Interpretation Act (Cap I20, Laws of the Federation of Nigeria 2004) explicitly states that the repeal of an Act does not:

Revive anything not in force or existing at the time of repeal.

Affect any right, privilege, obligation, or liability acquired, accrued, or incurred under the repealed Act.

Affect any investigation, legal proceeding, or remedy in respect of any such right, privilege, obligation, liability, etc.

This statutory provision means that even if a new law expands the scope, it cannot retroactively extinguish a conviction or pending case that was valid under the old law, provided the new law does not expressly say otherwise (which is rare in criminal law due to the ex post facto clause).

Here is a case precedence for you:
Attorney-General of the Federation v. Attorney-General of Abia State (2000) and similar federal cases have reinforced that the repeal of a statute does not destroy the liability incurred under it unless the repealing act explicitly says so.

Also, a similar precedence has been set in Ogunleye v. The State (1990) and Uko v. The State (1999). In these cases, the Supreme Court of Nigeria held that:

A repeal without a savings clause would abate pending prosecutions (the common law rule).


And you keep referring to the 1999 Constitution in particular to Section 1(1)) and Section 34 (Right to dignity and fair hearing) which explicitly protect against retroactive criminal laws which by layman interpretation simply translate that:

1. You cannot be convicted under a new law for an act that was not a crime when committed.

2. You cannot be sentenced to a heavier penalty under a new law for a past act.

But your Kanu wasn't standing trial for crimes committed retroactively.

At the time of his arrest and arraignment in court, Kanu was charged under the existing 2013 legislation.

In practice , any law passed under the doctrine of repeal and re enactment, is applicable as long as there is a saving clause that upholds the previous legislation that is being replaced.

If the new law is silent, the court invokes the Interpretation Act (s. 33) to preserve the old liability. Meaning, the old law has now been abrogated and those facing court cases and convictions on the old are automatically free to go and no longer subject to trial and or legal sanctions and liability .

Go school you no gree.

tommysexy:
The post is about tinubu,but you people started talking about obi. is it that you sleep and see obi everyday? . of course he cant because he does not pay for people to come to campaign. His supporters are organic. Unlike the APC who's supporters complain of not being paid well for apperance fee. And mind you,he doesnt even need the core North,Buhari was winning the core north three times and never won the general elections

Also as of today in the North,Tinubu doesnt have any organic support anywhere. the people you see with tinubu are politicians,and politicians do not determine who win it is the people who do. The only state Tinubu will win in the core north today is Borno. He cant win any other state. Or maybe tommorow if he decides to return fuel subsidy yes he has a chance because on the streets,atiku's plan to return fuel subsidy is everywhere. A region that is poor before,being made poorer with the removal of fuel subsidy. that is the only saving grace that can save him. if he has 200 Govornors cannot save him. it is the economy

But most of you dont even know tinubu has lost more supporters than he ever gained. he only gained Govornors and the political class,he didnt gain the people who determine elections. but you his supporters who live in an alternate world think it is at his feet. come to the north and come and feel the pulse of the populace. people are only waithing for January and it will be a shocker for those of you living in the south who support a very repressive govt like his

You don't have to lie to make a point though.
Everything nor be troll
This is your future and Nigeria future we are discussing not some random football banter.
I wondered when u all will begin using your brain

truthera:
I will ask you once again, show me a section of your constitution that permits a repealed law to be expanded or extended? You can't, yet you continue to argue ignorantly.... The constitution is clear over this issue, you can not use a repealed law for prosecution or conviction.... It is unconstitutional......

EponObi:
Me I no know ooo but next time he's going to Benue, he should prepare well.

Na this suppose be him official gear for the campaigns. He has been rejected
