So APC is now consolidating

Kukutente23:
He said constitutional amendment.
The SC can't annul an amendment to the constitution no matter how bizarre

Tue supremem court can and will deem any law that is discriminatory illegal.

What manner of incoherence is this?

Twy:
I agree with you that the six zones are not recogized in the constitution. It was proposed during the Abacha conference but not in the 1999 constitution. Apart from that the rotation amy work if we have a form of confederation like in Switzerland or at least a federal system with the central less comand of the economy.

Nigeria is divided into states.

What you are suggesting is another kettle of fish

Atiku wants a single 6-year term to be returned amongst the 6 geopolitical zones.

Says the same person that refused to step down to allow his party present a candidate from the south

Worse is that said 6 geopolitical zones are not even recognized by the law. That were just created for political expediencies.

You cannot pass a law saying it is the turn of the NE to present a candidate as it is a violation of the rights of other people from other zones. if they want to contest, they will and a law stopping them is as foolish as the 25% in Abuja thing. It is discriminatory and the supreme court will have the annulled.

Atiku knows this is a waste of time

Peter Obi's case was dismissed so quickly because his points had already been discussed in tje Atiku suit and the Justices saw no need to start again.

Except for the double nomination but this had already been settled by the supreme court in May so there was no need

It should be noted that Ukraine abstained from voting.
