Will it also be applied to obi too?

IfnobeGod20:
The constitution is explicit, no political candidate can be disqualify base on no name on the membership register. It only require a party to sponsor a person and there is no where in the constitution or electoral Act where it stipulates window period to belong or not to belong to a political party. It's even a breach of principle of Association on Human Right.
The electoral Act says submit membership register but was silent why the register must be submitted. I challenge anyone To point to any part of the electoral Act that place penalty for non-availability of candidate name on the membership register. I am waiting for the proponent of this arrant judgement that is against logic and Nigerian constitution to quote it for the world to see.

shortgun:
I see alot of ignorant people are happy about this absurd judgement.
It has been decided over and over again in various courts that how candidates emerge in a political party is strictly an internal affair of the party as stipulated in the electoral act.
Submitting register to Inec doesn't prescribe any penalty or prevents political parties from accepting new members.

FalseProphet1:
I see Honourable Ngozi reclaiming back his stolen mandate.

This I have seen.

Holluwhakemmy:
The mandate doesn't belong to you therefore go and rest and try harder next term

You are not overcoming anything if you like react and reaction if even supreme court decide otherwise we will still remove her and the rest LP in both red and green chamber unless they defect to pdp or apc or sdp or apga failure to do that we will frustrate them to stupor.

I have no issue with LP but Obi motherfucker make me to hate LP with passion...

seanfer:
According to the candidate “ NOBODY will take the mandate of the Aniocha/Oshimili people from the back door. We shall overcome."

Can we say the same thing about your party Presidential Candidate who is in court fighting for someone else’s mandate?

seanfer:
No. This judgement won’t affect Obi because he participated in the primary election monitored by INEC. This judgement stated that Ngozi is not a LP member as at the time the primary election was held. I think his name was swapped with someone’s who participated and won the primary.

seanfer:
Did you read the reason he was sacked? The Tribunal ruled that as at 28 may 2022 that the primary was held, Ngozi was not a member and didn’t participate in the primary election. You all should start asking Aburi and co how come his name was submitted to Inec and not the real winner of the primary.

shortgun:
All matters that has to do with how candidates are nominated by political parties for elections are treated as pre election matters .

nomination of a candidate; double nomination of a candidate; disqualification of a candidate; wrongful substitution of a successful candidate’s name by the electoral body; wrongful omission of a successful candidate’s name by the electoral body; complaints about the conduct of primaries, and false declaration on oath about particulars of a candidate.

Only aspirants of the same political party have local stadi to challenge outcomes of nomination processes in court within 14 days from the day the event occurred; members of other political parties are considered as persona non Grata.

Kindly note that these are not my personal opinions but the position of the law.

APC members cannot question how candidates emerge in Labour party; neither can labour party members question APC, that's the position of the law.

If you like don't learn, keep trying to win argument in a subject you know nothing about.

OGHENAOGIE:
is Ndidi elumelu APC member??

seanfer:
You are so wrong with your submission and the 3 Honorable Judges just follow the constitution and Electoral Act... How can someone who is not a member of a party, who didn't participate in the Primary Election become the party flag bearer?

shortgun:
I am not wrong, the electoral act is very clear on who have constitutional right to challenge nomination processes by political parties.

Elumelu in PDP doesn't have the constitutional right to challenge how labour party nominates it's candidates no matter how flawed the processes are.
Only an aspirant who must have participated in the party primary can seek redress in the high court not even the tribunal cos all pre election matters goes to the high court.

duro4chang:
Hmmmmm. Then all politicians are the same irrespective of the party.

seanfer:
Elumelu was not contesting the party nomination of Ngozi... What he is contesting is that Ngozi didn't participate in the primary election so how come LP forward his name to INEC and therefore votes that belong to him should become void and the court rule in his favour.

shortgun:
Elumelu doesn't have the locus standi to challenge how another political party that is not his nominates it's candidate.
It's not his business how labour party chooses to nominate it's candidate...this is the position of the law.

The case will be dismissed and thrown out by the court of appeal
1. the tribunal lacks jurisdiction over all pre election matters.
2. Elumelu lacks locus standi
3. time permitted for filling of such cases in the high which is 14 days have long elapsed

Afamed:
That is the hypocrite in Labour party.
The Pandora fraud aknowledged he did not win the election but want the court to give him the mandate that didn't belong to him

Dittodat:
It's blatantly apparent that your shallow brain can be easily manipulated with trash narratives and fake news.
Stop masquerading as someone that you are not,
BY their shallow, warped, and illogical reasonings, we shall know them even when they claim to be OModua.

Your IPOB warlord is trying to increase his vote just like the JAMB girl from Anambra.
Fraud and deceit must be prevalent in your DNA

Omodua:
It's evident you're so brainwashed to think everybody should reason as one of the serfs of your Principal everybody should toe his lines of action.

Simple logic demands you don't remove fuel subsidy without credible alternative arrangements because of the backlash. But he went ahead thinking we won't do anything. He still regales in Lagos politics where there is no opposition. But he is dead wrong! Lagos politics is different from Nigerian politics because nigerians ask questions and have republican outlook.

It's not only Yoruba that bears Omodua. My heritage bears Omodua.
