They end up saying nothing.

I swear to God, I will not protest for Tinubu or anybody. We've seen his plan which is not working, so if there's a chance to try some other person that can turn our plight around, I'll support it but I no dey go on the street for any politician wey wan dash the poor 8k and billions to the NASS & even wan increase them them alawee by 114%, while our people dey cry for market every day. I no follow!

The anarchy Tinubu is calling for will start from his thieving household.

Does APC or any group have monopoly of violence? I think white powder is affecting Pablo EscoBAT's head. If not he wouldn't have had the audacity to threaten Nigeria's existence. The documented narcotic trafficker will surely end up at the Hague.

Busy body labourer party responding to fake news.

That's what idleness can cause

You shall know a wicked man by his words.
Tinubu is a very wicked man, who has bad intentions for Nigeria.

In my years alive, I have never seen a more brainwashed set of people than the supporters of labour party.

Firstly, the problem been referred to here is the likely pandemonium the 25% in Abuja debate if ratified by the Court will create for future Elections.

> It will elevate Abuja voters above all other states in Nigeria.

> It will go against the constitution of Nigeria that states all votes cast in Nigeria are the same because it will mean casting your vote in Abuja is more important than casting it in Akure, Onisha or Kano.

Secondly, a runoff doesn't itself guarantee that the winner of the runoff will still get the 25% requirement in Abuja. So will we simply continue to go for runoffs until the winning candidate get 25% in Abuja even if he gets 25% in all the 36 states of the federation.

Furthermore, this will put a weird spotlight on the democraphics of Abuja in future Elections which might create an ugly situation. Politicians might just import people from other states to make up the 25% in Abuja which might create an unwanted national debate in the future. Tribes will begin to fight over who should be allowed to vote in Abuja etc.


In conclusion, Tinubu's lawyer in his final written argument to the judges is only pushing his legal points with real life likely scenarios that might

Shallow-minded views...

The US uses sundry state caucuses to select party flag bearers of the two major political parties in addition to the electoral college.

The requirement of getting 25% in Abuja will only consolidate our democracy so keep your narrow-mindedness to yourself.

The law is sacrosanct and must apply...

Nigeria is bigger than any desperado...

Angelfrost:
That statement was quite tactless and disappointing coming from a whole Head of state!

Iamgrey5:
Nigeria constitution is different from the American constitution for a reason.

In Nigeria, according to our constitution all votes cast are equal.

The equality Claus is specifically to accommodate for our diverse background and protect sensitivity of the difference in our background.

Nigeria don't use an electoral college system but popular votes.

The requirement of getting 25% in Abuja in the first ballot will only consolidate our democracy so keep your narrow-mindedness to yourself.

You should go and take a more balanced look at the provision of the constitution: the 25% in Abuja requirement does not apply in a runoff...

In any case, the law is sacrosanct and must apply...

Nigeria is bigger than any desperado...
