They really need to work on our electoral laws, this decamping is turning into a child's play, by the time they teach the 27 lawmakers from Rivers State others will stop this nonsense.
Fubara was hoping on getting the Supreme court to overturn his rascality .
Now that the Supreme Court has declared that Fubara has been operating an illegal government with his five man assembly , every action taken since is now illegal.
You seem to be the foolish one here, simple question you can't answer, idiot
Desyno: You are the one that didn't read the judgement. You're just being sentimental. Don't let anybody deceive. Get a copy of federal high court judgement and appeal court judgement to read. The two judgement were what Fubara appealed against in supreme Court. By withdraw the case, Fubara now accept the judgement of the appeal court. Stop being emotional.
On the 2024 budget presentation, what year are we ? 2025 is that budget still relevant?
richmond500: have seen comments of people who do not understand the case, here is what happened.
Governor Fubara had withdrawn the case yesterday against Martins Amewhule and others, by this withdrawal, it shows that the appeal court judgement that Amaewhule is the authentic speaker still stands and Fubara was fined N2m. You may want to ask why the governor withdraw the case? Ofcos now there is another case in federal high court in Rivers state following the defection of the speakers, Supreme court has nothing to do with this case, cos the case today was about authentic speaker and not defection. So in the coming days, expect the federal court to sack Amaewhule and his friends, and if this judgement happens, it automatically means the supreme court ruling will not be obeyed.
Supreme Court has dismissed an appeal filed by Siminalayi Fubara, Governor of Rivers State, challenging the judgment that voided the presentation and passage of the state's 2024 budget.
Why did the governor withdrew the appeal ? That's the question you should be asking your self, there 4 more cases to go
BondRiv: Hopefully the right thing is done. Fubara cannot continue in his lawless trajectory. The Supreme Court must let not just the country, but the world know we have laws in Nigeria.
What did Fubara do? Was it Fubara that asked them to leave PDP for APC? Fubara only work according to the constitution, and if you go and read that section of the constitution you don't need a law Court to declare that seat vacant it is self executory, because we leave in a lawless country they will be running from one court to another. Fubara has not done anything, the lawmakers are gone and gone forever
Edygrin: A former Provost Marshall of the Nigerian Army, Maj-Gen Pat Akem-Vingir (retd), says the military needs at least 500,000 personnel to eliminate terror groups like Boko Haram and the Islamic State West Africa Province (ISWAP).
There are over 5 million Nigerians that will be willing to join this moment if the opportunity shows up. But the government will not employ them to ensure they end this insecurity up north and around the country
This is how you bring curse on your head and that of your family, do you know the meaning of Oghene? I guess you don't because if you do you would not have said what you said. I will not say anything to you because you are already done
Ojuntana: Is this not the dude posing as PDP natl sec after appeals court sacked him?
He is the one, don't worry supreme Court will embarrass him the more since he doesn't want to respect himself and move on.
For you to be involved in any elected position, you should resign from your previous position before the primaries, see the electoral act below The Electoral Act 2022 of Nigeria, which governs elections conducted by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), addresses the resignation of public servants before contesting elections in Section 84(12).
Section 84(12) - Resignation Before Contesting Elections This section states:
> "No political appointee at any level shall be a voting delegate or be voted for at the convention or congress of any political party for the purpose of the nomination of candidates for any election."
This means that political appointees (such as ministers, commissioners, special advisers, etc.) must resign from their positions before participating in the primaries of any political party.
However, for civil servants the requirement is different. The 1999 Constitution of Nigeria (as amended), particularly Section 318 and Public Service Rules, generally require civil servants to resign at least 30 days before the election** to contest for public office.
SamGift0817: Group Loyal to the Federal Capital Territory Minister, Nyesom Wike, has urged the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) to expel Rivers state Governor, Siminalayi Fubara from the party, as well as speaker of the Pro-Fubara lawmakers, Hon. Victor Oko- Jumbo.
Na una first heat the polity with hardship, if not that Nigerian just like sufferings Tinubu would have resigned on his own, because it so evident he doesn't know what he is doing.
Kdon2: And the state said no! What's sultan stress?
And state has said no, check around all the governors in the south west are moslems, not so sure about the ekiti governor, if they push so had, Moslem would never be governor in any south west states let's see how they want to implement sharia and set the south west back to 1920s
RevDesm0ndJuju: The likes of Amaechi think you are fools . In short , Amaechi believes you are all foolish.
How can someone like Amaechi , who has been in public position since 1999 be preaching to you about "bad governance"?
Since he resigned from his position as Minister for Transportation under the disastrous Buhari adminstration to contest for the APC Presidential ticket which he lost, Amaechi has suddenly become jobless.
This is the same Amaechi who said "poverty drove him to politics" and prior to which was never meaningfully employed or engaged in any productive venture .
Since 1999, when he emerged as Speaker of the Rivers State House of Assembly - which he held for 8ys after which he was sworn-in as Governor of Rivers following a controversial Supreme Court Ruling that saw for the first time a candidate who never was on the ballot emerge as the final winner. Amaechi was Governor for 8ys serving two terms and from there got nominated as Minister for another 8ys by the Buhari government.
But here is the same Amaechi preaching to you to take back your country from politicians like himself.
You are not aware that the supreme Court would be giving judgement on the 10th of February? On a lot of cases with regards to the 27 lawmakers and other issues.
Ojuntana: Vanitybutiwanti it seems Makinde and Wike’s honeymoon is over
Wike will soon come and tell us how much he bought Makinde
By 2027 Wike will be reduced to nothing, if only he knows what is going on behind, he calls himself a strong man he will be humbled, by next week Monday the supreme Court judgement will be the first to humble him.
Desyno: Wike will prefer an unknown person to take over Rivers state than for Fubara to get second term. Don't you see what happened in Edo state? Shaibu did everything to make sure Obaseki candidate failed just for revenge. The chance that APC will win Rivers state in 2027 is high, take it to anywhere.
For Rivers State APC can never win shit the party is divided that's why you see that Wike has not been able to decamp to APC he feels he still has a strong hold in PDP, but has the days goes by its reducing.
For Fubara re-election Wike doesn't have the say wait until 2027 and see what happens, he is free to support any candidate he likes but can't determine Fubara's case.
alimiadedayo1: Do you have common logical sense.. is it possible for someone who has ambition under a party to work against the party in the current dispensation? You guys just talk with emotions without thinking twice.. They should expel only wike because he can't be APC and PDP at the same time
Only Wike should be expelled, why should that be, what about his followers
Desyno: Campaign don start. Let see how it will go. If Wike lose control of PDP, he will deploy all his weapon to support APC and APC will has advantage of federal might. Interesting days ahead.
Na today APC de get federal might, Wike knows he has no future in APC in Rivers State that is why he can't decamp, if he thrown out of PDP he is done politically
alimiadedayo1: You guys don't understand politics, if they exepel all of them.There is nothing remains in PDP again .They should only expel those working against the party as of now not then
They are still the same persons, or those that worked against the party then have they changed?
BlocksNG: US President Donald Trump will sign an executive order on Wednesday to combat anti-Semitism and pledge to deport non-citizen college students and other “resident aliens” who took part in pro-Palestinian protests, a White House official said.
A fact sheet on the order said Trump would order the Justice Department to “aggressively prosecute terroristic threats, arson, vandalism and violence against American Jews”.
“To all the resident aliens who joined in the pro-jihadist protests, we put you on notice: come 2025, we will find you, and we will deport you,” Trump said in the fact sheet. “I will also quickly cancel the student visas of all Hamas sympathisers on college campuses, which have been infested with radicalism like never before.”
