Newton2024: Obi is a useless noisemaker. His Umuahia party only won 1 state. He came 3rd in the election. He didn't win 25% in 24 states, but he wants to be President. He's a dumb thief and he will be disgraced. 8 Likes 1 Share |

a4cube: I corrected you on waec.. It is 5 credits in subjects including maths and English.. My brother na for people wey mo understand English that will be making noise.. The constitution is clear.. And is conjuctive.. Meaning joining.. In that sentence "AND" simply joined FCT Abuja to the states meaning the requirements applied to sumation of both.. If i think bread and butter is delicious means when butter is on breead it is delicious.. It does not mean when u. Lick only buter or eat only bread is delicious.. And is used to join things to give an impression of togetherness. Taye and kehinde, peter and paul, bread and butter, Rice and beans, 36 states and fct. If i tell you please i want to east 5 plates of Rice and beans.. What will you serve me be honest? You will give me 5 plates of a mixture of rice and beans not 5 plates of rice and 5 places of beans apply it to 36 ststes and fct and you see people who lost election are just trying to cause problems in Nigeria... Obi has no case with the rice (36 states) and beans.(Fct) . 3 Likes |

ovieigho: Everybody has interest . That provision is ambiguous otherwise these arguments won’t have come up. Let the courts decide The is what the constitution says, VERBATIM “(2) A candidate for an election to the office of President shall be deemed to have been duly elected where, there being more than two candidates for the election- (a) he has the highest number of votes cast at the election; and (b) he has not less than one-quarter of the votes cast at the election each of at least two-thirds of all the States in the Federation and the Federal Capital Territory, Abuja.” More: https://jurist.ng/constitution/sec-134 2 Likes |

There are no new arguments put forward here, quit recycling opinions. This issue has been a major subject of discourse in the last 1 month. It’s no news that FCT has a ‘state status’, choose wisely If you wanted to make a statement to include all the 36 states and the FCT, e.g all the ministers from the 36 states and the FCT, would you rather say a. 36 states and the FCT b. 36 states, and the FCT c. 37 states This is a constitutional crisis 1 Like 1 Share |

“In English, you must put a comma before “and” when it connects two independent clauses” The constitution doesn’t do this The constitution says 36 states and the FCT NOT 36 states, and the FCT Jagaban was rightly declared winner 3 Likes |

Newton2024: It is not mandatory.. English is used in context. And according to the constitution is used conjunctively meaning to bring 2 things together. 36 states of the federation and Fct Abuja mean the two brought together.. Examples abound : Bread and butter, rice and beans, taye and kehinde, peter and paul used to show 2 persons are together 1 in the cases of twins. So it shows the provision of the constitution applies to them together.. Let me kind of explain it you mathematically... The constitution says Fct all provisions will apply as if it is a state.. What this means in constitution is Nigeria states are from Abia to zamfara (36 states of the Federation) and Fct abuja.. Apples and oranges = apples together woth oranges, rice and beans =rice together with beans.. Taye and kehinde together as twins. 36 states and fct is 36 togetwith fct. Nigeria states = 36 states of the Federation and fct Let Nigeria states be x X = 36 states of federation and the fct So the provision of the law in the constitution applies to X. 25% in 2/3 of X = spread.. Where X= 36 states and fct Note the aim of the constitution here is to achieve a spread and not that a candidate votes only from a particular region acquire their votes... Fct is North central.. So your compulsory fct requirement immediately nullifies the reason the constitution wanted a spread. That means if i get my spread in other states of the Federation say i win and get 25% 34 states of the Federation a candidate who does not make 25% in say 30 states and wins abuja like kwankwaso won kano abuja maybe he is from abuka and popular, he immediately renders such a spread null amd void, that is against the spirit of the constitution.. Let me make it clearer.. If you sell food and i ask you.. Madan please i need 10 plates of Rice and beans.. Will you give me 10 plates of rice mixed with beans or will you bring 10 plates of rice and 10 plates of beans.. Another example.. Please give peter and paul 500 naira.. Will you give a total of 500 naira that the both share or you bring out each 500 to make 1000 naira in both case you will do the formmer 10 plates of rice mixed with beans and 500 to peter and paul.. I dont know if you are trying to be mischievous or you natural ignorant of use of English... Seriously you guys should not burn the country because you lost an election.. 2 Likes 1 Share |
