Can Tinubu dual citizenship be incorporated into the tribunal hearing being the discovery came after the petition submission by political parties ended, if no at this stage can any individual, group or organization take the matter to court? here to learn.

Late I guess.

It can't be added to the tribunal as the 21 days has passed, You can't try him either as immediately he is sworn in as president that case will end.

You can only use the CCT or ask the senate to impeach


All these assuming the passport is real in the first place

Why not.Obi lawyers are extremely smart.One of the petition is that he should be disqualified as he was not eligible to contest and that all his vote should be declared zero vote.
To prove this ,you can slot in the dual citizen evidence ( if it's confirmed) .You also add the drug conviction case ( if you have evidence )

CCT cannot try perjury and dual citizenship cases. They are set up only to try asset declaration cases.

Yes!
Under “new evidence tendered”.
According to the grosspell of Wike. . . If it “didn’t dey, it didn’t dey” in the EC9 form.

Perjury umbrella.😆

I beg to differ, are you saying that if part of the questions on the Asset Declaration form (which obviously is there) is whether he is a citizen of any other country and he answers 'No' only for this to surface (i.e perjury) that CCT cannot try him?

And who told you he has filled and submitted his code of conduct form? He will fill his CCT form a day before swearing in.

I still declared my assets last year and I can’t remember any question like “are you a citizen of any other country other than Nigeria”. Again, I hope you’re aware that CCT is not a normal court where anybody can go and institute a case against another person. It is only CCB that can take a case before CCT and I don’t really need to tell you that no CCB will ever take an incumbent president before CCT.

What about the one he filled while serving as governor? Can't such be instituted at the CCT if it is part of the Code of Conduct form?

All these is assuming that the Guinean passport story is true which I strongly doubt.

Your actions here is becoming so unbecoming

Are you a nairaland MOD or a Tinubu MOD supporter planted here to suppress, delete and ban dissenting opinion

I pray so

To prove this ,you can slot in the dual citizen evidence ( if it's confirmed) .You also add the drug conviction case ( if you have evidence )

the best answer so far.

No they can't include the double citizenship into the tribunal case...

If you break the law so much that Constitution is violated in matters of qualification for President. That president will be removed by any Nigerian taking the matter to Court.

Every Nigerian has jurisdiction over this one and it can be incorporated into the tribunal

I read his comment with so much disgust, Intelligency isn't weighed by being a Mod, despite all the allegations against BAT and none of his associates like FFK and co haven't come out to debunk but rather report a journalist account, even with the latest video of BAT on a helicopter 🚁 with some substance you people still want bat as president? If people can see evil yet openly support without hiding their feelings then something is really wrong. They don't even care about the Image of our country any longer. They don't care about their generations, it's the present gratification that matters.

All these is assuming that the Guinean passport story is true which I strongly doubt.

He last made an asset declaration in 2007 when he left public office. The Guinean passport they are throwing around was issued after 2007 so his 2007 asset declaration form is irrelevant in this case. By the way, there is no such question as “are you a citizen of other country other than Nigeria” in the asset declaration form. Even if there is such a question and he lied on oath, the criminal aspect of the declaration cannot be handled by the CCT as it is not a criminal court.

They can when proving their assertion that he’s not qualified to contest! They can’t include all the evidence in their initial petition or else they will fill the entire court with paper!

Thanks for the clarifications.

Tinubu in witness box:

Lawyer: Are you Mr. Bola Ahmed Tinubu?
Tinubu: Yes
Lawyer: Are you a Guinean?
Tinubu's Lawyer: Objection:
Lawyer: My Lord, I am trying to establish character
Judge: Sustain:
Tinubu: No
Lawyer: Do you recognize this passport?


Tinubu: Yes / No

No: Perjury
Yes: Dual citizen

PROUDIGBO:

In the petition the lawyers have already list their reasons for his disqualification and no where they mention dual citizenship, they can't include that in their argument during the tribunal session, also know that tribunal is not a full court that can hear criminal cases.

How exactly has he suppressed, deleted or banned dissenting opinion here? How does his merely stating facts constitute any of those things? This may shock you, but someone saying something you don't want to hear doesn't mean they are in any way "suppressing" you.

Their smartness might not be up there as we thought. If they can missed the simple fact that they were supposed to join PDP in the case but they didn't.

As it stands, the best they can hope for is for the tribunal to order a fresh election as Obi can never be declared president over Atiku that came second, since PDP was not joined in the case to come defend their second position (i.e what is cared fair trial) no way Obi can be declared president even if Tinubu's votes were to be discountenanced. So much for smartness.




We learn everyday

I doubt this , the charges and allegations against him has been tabled already. I know Peter Obi and his legal team knew about this dual citizenship , but they must have seen the hopelessness in using or wasting resources and time because most likely they know it won't fly and will be thrown out.
Secondly it seems the president ,and governors are immuned against prosecution once they enter office ( not sure ) . If that be the case then that is just the of the whole case

All these is assuming that the Guinean passport story is true which I strongly doubt.

He became in Governor in 1999.

The Guinean passport if true showed it was obtained long after he left office.

If he really has connections to Guinea like we are made to believe, the Guinean authorities would delete the details from their database. It will be hard to proof that he indeed has Guinean nationality aside that picture in circulation which could actually be a Photoshop.

OBI have already declared in his petition that Tunubu is not qualified to contest.
The next thing is for him to prove it.
This is where the citizenship and drug case can come in.
Tinubu's case is very serious right now. If they strike out the drug case with technicality, will they also strike out the perjury?

OBI is holding them on the jugular that's why they are attacking him.

Worst case scenario, Tunubu will be disqualified and rerun ordered between LP and PDP
