Is The Support Of The FCT Senator Needed To Impeach The Senate President? by donphilopus: 4:32pm On Mar 24, 2023 |
I have been reading different posts made by some so-called educated Nigerians claiming that securing 25% in the FCT is mandatory for a Presidential candidate to be declared winner and returned elected. This is quite funny and embarrassing. NLfpmod, Seun, Mynd44 7 Likes 1 Share |

Ignore the children of frustration. The constitution is clear enough 25% of the states and Abuja. And , is a conjunction here which means, Abuja is also giving the status of a state. All you need is to win 25% Section 137 of Nigeria constitution is clear enough It is like saying if you win all the Local Govts in Anambra in a Govship election but you fail to win Awka, the state capital, you can not be declared winner. 4 Likes |

Afamed: That's just it man. If you're able to secure 25% in 25 states (including the FCT), you're covered. Wherever you get the 25% is immaterial. At last paragraph, that's the same question I asked my bro. yesterday. In a state that has 13 local govt areas, you only need 25% in 9 LGA's. Getting 25% in the state capital (which is also a local govt on its own) doesn't matter. Why should 25% in FCT then matter? 2 Likes |

donphilopus: This is so silly it’s funny You gave a great example but somehow went to the wrong conclusion. Let us try another example. Let’s say “You must pass 2/3rd of your projects and your exam to pass a course”. Does that mean you can fail the exam and still pass? The truth is that the English written in that section can certainly be interpreted both ways. I believe most English scholars will interpret it to mean that you need 25% in FCT but our courts will decide based on the constitution as a whole and precedence. I actually think that those that believe 25% is not required in FCT have just one great argument but I rarely see anyone mention it I have no interest in helping APC and its supporters so I won’t mention it either lol. Go and rig the courts too since we know you’re very capable ❤️ |

Afamed:Do we operate the same constitution with the US? You people think law is logic? As long as it is contained in our constitution,it is law.We can go ahead to review it later. |
