According to the constitution of the federal republic of Nigeria, Nigeria has no president elect. FCT abuja has a mandatory percentage according to our constitution. Every state in Nigeria has an elected governor Abuja is governed by the president. So it makes sense for the governor of abuja to at least have a percentage of votes from those he governs. We are in for an interesting ride in the court. The authentic winner of this election will get his mandate at the end of it all. Tinubu team knows it and that us why they are killing themselves with propagandas OBIDATTI is coming. 1 Like |

highchief1:Is that all you understand? I don't know anyone who ever said that a presidential candidate must WIN the FCT. They are only saying he should get 25% of the votes there because of the AND in the constitution. The idea is to ensure that a Pan Nigerian president is elected and Abuja happens to be Nigeria's Center of Unity. If a presidential candidate cannot get 25% in the FCT, then how popular is such a candidate? Thank you. 3 Likes |

Houseontherock1:Please stop this petty propaganda. The legal experts mean that your candidate should get as little as 25% of the votes tmin the FCT to become Nigeria's president in addition to the other requirements That shouldn't be too much for a Pan Nigerian president, should it? BTW, since 1999, has there been an elected Nigerian president who did not garner 25% from the FCT Abuja? Thank you. 2 Likes |

Peter Obi and his supporters are funny. In one hand they say that Obi won the election and in another hand they say that the election should be cancelled since the president elect didn't have 25% in Abuja.... What exactly do these people want? 1 Like |

OneCandleAway: President Buhari crossed the 15 million mark in votes scored in 36 states and the Federal Capital Territory. He polled 15,191,847 votes, winning in 19 of the states, after the result of Rivers was added. His main challenger Atiku Abubakar of the Peoples Democratic Party scored 10,782, 007 votes and won 17 states and Abuja. A very insightful interpretation and can easily be juxtaposed with the current results. Interesting days ahead. 1 Like |

OneCandleAway: No Sir, I did not forget. I am not even talking about who won and by what margin, I am only clarifying the argument that Abuja was not reckoned and here I have seen proof that the two guys in that election won Abuja in the margin as provided by the constitution. I am tired of this forward and backward arguments. These guys ain't paying me a dime please. Whatever makes Nigerians happy. Tinubu won, let the courts just affirm him so we can move on. I hope you are happy now? |

NO It's not.. FCT is not even a State, so how will you single out FCT to claim a man that got national spread of votes isn't fit to be declared winner? So it's Obi that won only in SE and parts of SW with nothing to show in North that INEC should declare as winner. Where is even the sense in that??. The next time Obi makes any unguarded statement, DSS should arrest him and charge him for treason.. If heaven wants to fall, let it fall. 3 Likes 1 Share |

For me, the judgement of the court in this instance will be a landmark decision, it should improve Nigeria's legal jurisprudence and i am anticipating the legal fireworks to commence.
