Politics › Re: 'Membership timeline': INEC appeals judgement, seeks stay of execution by Peacecore: 8:06pm On May 25 |
Ofunaofu: This is obviously the Tinubu and the APC appealing the judgment through the Amupitan-led INEC simply to buy time, so that those dissatisfied with the APC’s baba sope political patronage machine and fraudulent primaries will not decamp for now.
Ordinarily, INEC is not even supposed to appeal this judgment. The judge simply held that INEC cannot lawfully shorten the timeline already provided under Section 29(1) of the Electoral Act 2026 for the submission of party membership records and candidates’ particulars.
As expected, the appeal will most likely be dismissed for lacking merit.
INEC cannot issue guidelines that conflict with the very Electoral Act from which it derives its powers. Why shouldn't they appeal the judgement? It infringe on their right as commission to apply a provision of the law as regard to their commission. Go and read 77(4) you'll understand why politicians who lost primaries are still hesitating to cross-carpet. |

GeneralOuki: 1. I know one of his colleagues at that Ajiwe police station
2. I know lawyers who were involved in that case
3. I was following the court proceedings
It's not that the media was not aware of the execution, they reported the death penalty judgement, but the actual execution itself was kept out of the public, maybe because of the policeman's wife and little kids. They don't want them going through the trauma of seeing how their loved one was killed Alright. Thanks. |
Crime › Re: Nursing Student, Wendy Achumba, Beheaded In Her Apartment In Imo by Peacecore: 12:29pm On May 24 |
GeneralOuki: Nope. It's not secret execution but non publicised execution, there's a different. I can tell you That the police man who shot and killed that pregnant woman at Ajah under bridge on December 25, 2021 has been hanged. You will not see the news of the actual execution anywhere on the news but he's been executed. There are a couple of cases like this too How do you know if the media know nothing about it? Just being curious because I know how rotten the system is. |
Crime › Re: Nursing Student, Wendy Achumba, Beheaded In Her Apartment In Imo by Peacecore: 10:43am On May 24 |
GeneralOuki: Some people are getting executed but it's not made public. If they execute anyone secretly, then know it's a criminal exchange with innocent man. |
Crime › Re: Nursing Student, Wendy Achumba, Beheaded In Her Apartment In Imo by Peacecore: 10:37am On May 24 |
GeneralOuki: Did crime reduce when public execution was a thing? There were more armed robbers during Babangida and Abacha time than we have now, execution didn't not reduce anything, all it did was to bring closure. That being said, this guys who killed this girl are certainly going to be executed, two of them have been caught and will be charged to court. I expect a speedy court process and an execution date promptly fixed. They're not executing anyone. They've shown how callous they can be and as well have been a good scout to politicians for their heinous crimes in the polity. |

Eba50: Nigeria no dey execute murdereres and robbers again like abacha and babangida time, that's y these nonsense dey take place. I personally witness execution of robbers in late 80s as very young boy till 1998 for arcade,college junction ,agbor. Then, crime was very low. It was mostly burglary and fraud cases we had, and in rare cases, armed robbery. Murder was almost non existent. Cultism was hidden. It was called secrete cult, with harldy u see confrontation. In the rare robbery or murder cases, action was very swift. within a week after, u hear announcements from police that so and so, who committed murder or armed robbery at so and so place, would be executed by so and so time at arcade. Crowd would be present, with police working overtime controlling em, asking all to pls move behind the shooters. Nigeria was almost like barracks every where, both day and night, u do any how and see any how immediately. Evil dey fear good .Democracy, though good,allowed too many nonsense .Most Gen z no get idea of this. Most of the criminals are recycled for political use these days. |

sevenhundred: so inec that was represented by a lawyer didn't know about those who initiated the case? What's INEC's concern about who instituted a case? Who even know whether INEC answered the case because no one including you knew that such case was going on. Now that the relevant authority has denied involvement, what do you think will happen if INEC appeals? |
Politics › Re: "Membership timeline": Youth Party Disowns Suit Against INEC by Peacecore: 8:30pm On May 22 |
chidiokay: saliva does not leave the mouth and return back to the mouth, the youth whatever distancing themselves or issuing disclaimer now is like campaign after election
In fact is even meaningless, the relevant thing here is a case was filed by youth party or on behalf of youths even if they manage to convince any court they didn't file it does not change the position of law.. Inecc has no statutory power to alter the timeframe for registration, without amendment to the electoral act .. That is settled
MIND you any court will overlook jurisdiction or plaintiff validity where the superlative law is breached.. the court prioritizes enforcing the law Can you tell me which section of the electoral act that INEC violated? We all are learned people here I believe. |
Politics › Re: "Membership timeline": Youth Party Disowns Suit Against INEC by Peacecore: 8:27pm On May 22 |
Validated: ADC, NDC, etc will join in any appeal as interested parties. The onus of the matter is, DOES INEC HAVE THE RIGHT TO ABRIDGE ELECTORAL ACT? Answer is CAPITAL NO. Case closed, even SC will fine anyone appealing this case. Firstly no party will join a case when the originator is no longer interested in it. Secondly, INEC did not abridge the electoral law(s) because section 77 (4) 2026 as amended categorically states that political parties will submit their membership registers on or before 21 days before the stipulated time for primary election. The judge ruled on I think section 74 which talks about submission of credentials/particulars of candidates that stipulates 120 days which is an entirely different thing. Politicians won't be in a haste to defect anyway because they know that the judgement won't survive the scrutiny of the appeal court. |

Validated: Op, go and tell Wike and Tinubu that the train has left the station. The court has ruled, so let the leadership of Youth Party go to court. Are you being ignorance of the law or you're intentionally showing ignorance?  Only a registered political party has the right to institute a lawsuit against INEC and it must be their leadership. Now that the party has claimed not being involved, don't you think next court say appeal court will throw the case away because they won't have a legally backed group to represent them? Chai! |

Aleister: I just laughed when I read that judgement. APC is already pushing people out of APC with the level of baba soope politics they’re playing in the primaries. That judgment is the final nail on the coffin. Sometimes you people comment with one side of the brain. What would've been the decisions of those that got the tickets if those didn't get it now had gotten it? Can APC field more than one candidate in a particular seat? It's been happening over the years that those who miss out journey in another platform so it's not new. Same you would've mocked people like Wike and Uzodimma that they've been used and dumped if they'd missed out. |
