Apart from the law, I think there is something wrong in preventing a political party from presenting candidates for all positions in an election. It affects the choices of the people in that election.



By the way, why the many interpretations of same judgement.

What the article is saying and the OP interpretation as well as the title are not the same.

This is just silly propaganda. And the OP has still not gotten it: APC kinda propaganda no longer works.

PDP is asking the court to prevent INEC from postponing elections where INEC itself cannot guarantee a card reader as will likely be the case in Anambra. . And they are very correct. Imagine Anambra been postponed cos some persons went to deliberately burn card readers needed for the election.

PDP is saying no to Osun type rigging.

I agree with them

Swagaholic01:
This is false information, you don't just insult people because you can type from the comfort of your home..

The APC were in the Appeal court today, and the appeal court just as the supreme Court confirmed on Monday also confirmed that the stay of execution stands..

I'm not a lawyer and I can't explain all this rulings but the OP reported an accurate news that what I'm saying

You chaps should give this up. Legally it is over. APC does not have any candiddates for the next elections at all levels except the Presidency. It is unfortunate but that is the law.

By the way, from your comments above you obviously do not know what you are talking about

senatordave1:
No,during our adhoc training,they said no incident forms but will rather use tender ballots which wont count.

Ad hoc training ke?

As partisan as you are? An APC member to the core?

You people should fear God na. This election will not be rigged.

A growth rate of 1.93% and some people are "rejoicing".

No shame again in Nigeria

senatordave1:
Buhari will still get 30%.

This will have a marked effect on Buhari case in Rivers. It will be very significant cos of the demoralizing effect of this on APC leaders and members.

Buhari will not get up to 30% in Rivers. It is now left for the PDP to bring out the voters in Rivers and they would have gotten a huge head start.

Even though the law is the law and the APC arrogantly and stupidly disregarded a clear pending judgement spurned on by that irritating character(Amaechi), there is something not really right in preventing a people a choice in an election.

I acknowledge the supremacy of the Law. I acknowledge that this is a precedence- political actors might be more circumspect in the way they conduct their affairs going forward and that is a good thing. Still this is one of those times I will not "rejoice".

That is just me sha

FastShipping:
It's Buhsri's lack of leadership on display. Same thing is going on in Zamfara, Rivers, Ondo, and Imo. If Buhari had leadership qualities, he would have stepped in as the #1 man in the party and as president and lay down the marker. This is exactly what happened when Saraki became the Senate president. That lack of leadership destroyed Buhsri's administration from the onset. Saraki was PDP at heart and came in with PDP's agenda of share the money and eat everything on the table while leaving common man in hunger.

Buhari is the problem that befell APC. APC was formed with good manifesto but Buhari came in and became Mr know it all. He listens to no one except his inner circle (cabal). His wife actually fulfilling her promise not to participate in the campaign if the cabal were still around during the election because monkey can't be doing the work while baboons dey chop.

APC meant well for the country but Buhsri's leadership style has destroyed their good plan for the country. No progress to be made until Buhari leaves office.

#fact

For one of the most voracious supporter of Buhari pre-2015 here on Nairaland, this is telling.....

dustmalik:
The prayers are different

From the OP comment, it is same prayer.

Anyways, the court is still in sitting so no need to continue arguing this.

ashacot:
CONGRATULATION APC Rivers State

The preliminary objection filed by Fagbemi SAN on the appeal against the stay of execution granted in our favour which was appeal by Magnus is hereby granted.
Appeal struck out

Rivers APC
Supreme Court

Which means the supreme court is reversing itself on a judgement it came last Friday. That is impossible.

Except it is on another prayer before the court not same issue

madridguy:
Sincerely I don't comment on what I don't know. I'm not on ground " Edo " so predicting will be hard for me. I hope Sai Baba carry the day.

Fair enough.

madridguy:
E.g

Edo

Osun

Ekiti

Who do you think will win Edo?

HigherEd:
The way it's going the SS and SE maybe the decider of this election. Why? Pretty much every other region in the country is going to be divided and may yield very little differences. Block votes from the south south may end this election before it starts especially if buhari does not get more than 65% from the north west.

This is a thinking somebody

abc115:
Lagos
PMB...real voters are not here

Are you a fake voter?

Seetto:
Yea you are right , that is how politic should be played not putting your head in one basket like our brothers from the east, but you know for sure APC will get the highest votes in the west..

Yes, very likely.

But the difference would be close.

Seetto:
Shiite don't vote, to them it is a big no no, I would not argue with you for the fact that some of them would want to vote as a payback, the truth of the matter is that their votes is highly irrelevant.... Only when you are told so so person is a Shiite before you know there is a Shiite around you, and also they hide their faith because they are generally not love by the majority Muslims.

A lot of them are getting their PVCs now. Things have changed.

I guess that is what happens when you are f are with an existential problem

Seetto:
And you think southwest will abandon their own for obi, despite huge infrastructural projects embarked by PMB..

I was talking about Lagos, guy.

Focus!!!

Moreover, the votes from other states in SW will be substancially split as is usual.

alen4smith:
I am from Edo state!I live in GRA Benin city.

Ok.... Below is the link the official Facebook account of Gov Obaseki.

Take your time and read through, particularly those posts in which the Gov advocates for vites for Buhari as President.

The comments are from the fans of the Gov who clearly from the comments love the Gov and say they will vote for him any time But the vast majority of whom passionately are against voting for Buhari.
Plzz read through and clear any lingering doubts.

That is just the Gov facebook page. It is also the overwhelming sentiment in the city and across most of the state.

I know cos Edo is home.

Seetto:
North central pmb/atiku , that is sharing the votes 50 50

North west highest number of register voters, pmb 75% and atiku 25%
Pmb votes here is enough to counter atiku votes in the whole south south

North east PMB 60% and ATIKU 40%, this can equalise all the votes in the south east

South west is the determining factor and obviously you know it is APC strong hold..

60% of Buhari in the NE will neutralize the south east?

And Atiku will only get 25% in the whole of NW?

Ok na. Saturday is about 6 days away

By the way, Lagos is SW right? And makes up about 40% of that zone's votes abi? Lagos voting will be interesting. Plzz mark this

Seetto:
What PVC are you talking about, I live in badiko area Kaduna , one of their stronghold, their believe is that it is a sin to vote for someone who is going to cheat you, they don't recognise any government,
Their claim is nonrealistic, they want the government of their own,

and perhaps their vote is conspicuously inconsequential due to their small population.

I know of their belief. But they have gone to get their PVCs this time around on numbers. Which you should find interesting.

And they are not small politically. They are in their low millions. That is enough to tilt any elections. Any smart politician will tell you that.

Seetto:
North west PMB
North east PMB
North central PMB/ATIKU
South west PMB
South south ATIKU
South east ATIKU

Are you aware that this pattern may hold and Atiku can still win the elections depending on the distribution of votes in the various zones and states.

To guide you: while none of these 6 regions are passionately against Atiku, two are passionately against Buhari.

Think on that

alen4smith:
just like ize IYAMU won!

Bros, do you stay in Edo state?

Seetto:
Shiite don't vote because they don't recognise constitutional authority, you can as well mobilize voters from your enclave potopto republic in the name of Shiite to the north to vote against buhari.....iranu.

Did you hear that they now have PVCs this time around?

baliyubla:
The Shia have only one plan on Saturday, and it’s to vote massively against Buhari.

With the dullard out of the way, they know their prisoners would be free, including Sheik El Zakzakky.

I heard that for the first time sin e 1999 a lot of them have gone to obtain their PVCs.

This election results will be very interesting

Excaperx:
Atiku will win Sokoto state...

With the help of the caliphate and the people, buhari is nothing

Not sure about that.

Let him just split the vote substantially.

That should be the strategy.

freemanbubble:
I don't know about other states

But one thing i can bet my balls on is the fact that pdp will win my state. Edo state to be precise. Edo is for atiku

I completely agree

Whobedatte:
Guy, don't pack all of us together
Abeg.. Some of us aren't paid mercenaries and sycophants.
Well read and thinking Ooduas are ready to send lifeless FC back to his cows and correct the error of 2015.
Nigeria must be great again

I mentioned this comment just to say how much I support this.

Very beautiful piece.

Very well said and argued.

100%....

abduljabbar4:
Terrorism cannot end 100% just like that. It doesnt happen anywhere. If usa, syria russia, israel, Turkey and many other super powerful nations are yet to end ISIS 100% how di you expect Nigeria to end it at a go. You are being political. You dont have to be a buhari supporter before you acknowledge that boko haram has been severely weakened

Book haram attacks has reduced but it has not been defeated like Lai said here. And his justification for this is even more insulting. Boko haram only joined a deadlier group I.e it evolved, not defeated.

Again, we must sary off politics on some things.

ValCon888:
Nice thread. I almost fainted at the collection centre yesterday. The crowd was incredible.

Lalasticlala front page abeg.

Why did you wait this late to collect it though?

Anyways, well done for doing it at least

abduljabbar4:
It was an attack that was promptly repelled. Please go and read again. No one is saying that they are gone but compare this to the past when PDP was in power. There was no single day without a boko haram attack making fp on nairaland. You Atiku supporters might not know or like this but we the real victims know this. We are in a much better situatiin now

Bros, I don't play politics with issues like Boko haram, and I don't also suffer others who do.

That was what Lai was doing with his senseless statement. That is what you were doing with that comment.

To say that Biko haram has been defeated when they are still capturing towns in 3 different states is taking politics to silly heights.

Anyways, Lai knows his audience. People like you

Why all these nonsense?
