WATCHOVER:
Buhari got 25% we are not talking about winner it about %

Understood!

ademasta:
Go and read the section 299 of the constitution...

Winning or having 25% of total votes in FCT isn't a must to be declared winner.

FCT is considered a state just like every other ones.

Leave them. They should go and hang themselves if Tinubu is declared winner

Mr Kayode its not the way you think .

It's the 1999 constitution, a lot of us do not like that constitution because it was foisted on us by the army 🪖.
But we must obey it , they have a reason for putting it there ( the compulsory 25% of the FCT).
. should I tell you the reason ?

Jack500:
These obidients fools keep embarrassing themselves everyday

You think if 25% is a must in FCT, APC wouldn't have gotten it, even if it involves rigging?

Obidense true true, damaged fools everywhere.

Who and who will take the rerun?

Let him pay you first. Knowledge is expensive.

Tinubu was only able to secure 20% of the FCT even after massive massive rigging .

It is said that the APC didn't get upto 3% in the entire FCT.
They are very very angry with the APC for bringing terror to their doorstep and for the Abuja train kidnapp trauma .

And don't forget that they are educated and literate like the Lekki Ikoyi eti-osa voters who gave obi massive massive votes .

The illiterate, the urchin, the tout ,the uneducated ,the ignorant will vote and support you even if you kylled there farda and riaped their mother

IVORY2009:
But what about now with APC, what is the percentage ratio like? I don't know how to derive that, with the current results.

The provisions of this Constitution shall apply to the Federal Capital Territory, Abuja as if it were one of the States of the Federation;

"As if it were" means that it's not a state, but the law will apply to it like it applies to states

The law is clear, 25% of votes in 2/3 states and the FCT

In Mathematics, it means 25% of 2/3 of 36 states + FCT, which means 25% of votes in (2/3 x 36) + FCT = 25% of votes in 24 states + FCT

So what happens to the part that states "and FCT"?
So it should be discarded for Tinubu's sake?
So people that drafted the constitution didn't think that FCT would be interpreted as one of the states and yet they used "and"?
So why does the constitution bother to mention FCT knowing that it is one of the states?

These is a picture history of the FCT election results from 2011.

All declared candidates won 25% of the FCT as shown . Even the runner up won too.

Falana who happens to be a legal luminary in Nigeria has spoken about this and clear the air but you a bittered onitsha tout think otherwise.if Tinubu is declared the winner, go hang yourself. Respected past president has gone to congratulate Tinubu
Even his opponents Obi and Atiku are not saying anything but you an online lawyer is the one jumping up and down. After declaration, you can come up with another excuse since you guys are no longer complaining of rigging again

The apex court settled the matter in buhari vs obasanjo 2003

IVORY2009:
The last presidential elections of 2019, if you can recall, President mohammdu Buhari did not win the FCT, rather, Atiku won the FCT, and Buhari was declared winner.

Did Buhari get 25% in FCT?

AskProf:
Did Buhari get 25% in FCT?

I guess so....

David160:
The FCT is not a state... That provision is not subject to S299

25% in The FCT is a must.

Get ready for runoff

FCT na state. No runoff.

And means plus that's 36 states + Abuja.

Tinubu will be declared soon, you can keep crying

You don't know what you are saying, Tinubu will be declared soon, please take him to court

Please let's not be diverted. This isn't the issue. The issue is the massive rigging of the elections. These people never see anything yet.

This is pure open daylight robbery

They can NEVER escape this rigging

The youths are coming for them

It will happen so fast that they will not be able to escape

Massive Nationwide riots loading

Just wait for INEC to announce the results

220,000,000 people and how many soldiers do we have in the arm forces less than 5,000,000.

The security forces can NEVER crush over 220,000,000 Nigerians

Let that sink

David160:
Tinubu will not be sworn in 😂😂

Results were not transmitted from. Polling unit.. A clear violation of electoral act.

No 25% in THE FCT

Clear rigging in Rivers .

inec have made it clear they will announce d winner n all aggrieved parties should challenge it in court

U aren’t updated

Since it's 36 states and FCT, how about we rewrite your equation correctly like this: 2/3 (36 + 1)?
Or is that not the English interpretation of 36 states and FCT?

FCT is not a state, that's why the constitution says 36 states and FCT. If it were a state the constitution would've said "37 states including the FCT"

Do 1 and 2 means you must do 1 and do 2. It's very simple

This one don hook Thiefnubuu for blokos.

No presidency for him. Other parties will align in the run off against him, game over

Wickedfacts:

FCT is a state. No runoff.

Why are the Ministers of the Federal Capital Territory not Indigene of Abuja as prescribed in the Constitution that the President shall appoint an indigene of the State for a Federal Minister to represent them since it is regarded as a State according to the constitution?

The FCT is treated as a state of the Federation on constitutional matters.
There are a lot of ambiguous sections in our constitution, so you can't say they could have explicitly stated it.
However, I feel, as a matter of English language, 2/3 of the 36 states and FCT doesn't mean 25% in 2/3 of states and 25% in the FCT.

The constitution states that the President shall appoint an FCT indigene as Minister to REPRESENT them and not to GOVERN them.
Represent them in the FEC meetings just like Minsters of other states.

2015, Certificate
2019, INEC Server
2023, FCT Status

Tinubu is a very wicked politician. He never stops giving you guys hard labour to do and wicked errands to run.

That is how you guys will be chasing shadows for the next 8 years.

OH YES!!!!

I SAY WE MOOOOOOOOOOOOOOVE!!!!

No runoff bro.
Tinubu will be declared winner. You all can carry your wretched selves to the court like you did over Inec server in 2019 and Buhari's certificate in 2015.

I hear Dino got a law degree from Datti's school in less than 2 years. Go and meet him for legal advice.

25% FCT hook Thiefnubuu for agbada like barb wire. He will not be declared.

INEC has said they will declare the winner of the election. Nothing like inconclusive election.

Give this to someone to explain to you in your native language.

Jagaban don come. Useless bushpigs and wild rats go enter bush.
