Bende: I Won’t Appeal Tribunal Judgement – Labour Party’s Candidate by peekspot(op): 6:52pm On Sep 02, 2023
Hon. Frank Chinasa, the candidate of the Labour Party for the Bende Federal Constituency election, Abia State, has finally surrendered the seat to the Deputy Speaker of the House, Hon. Benjamin Kalu.

The LP candidate, while making this known to reporters in Abuja on Friday, said the decision followed his compassion for the constituency.

DAILY POST reports that the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, had declared Kalu of the All Progressives Congress, APC winner of the February 25 election after garnering 10,020 out of the 22,308 total votes.

Not satisfied with the outcome of the election, the LP candidate subsequently approached the National Assembly Elections Petitions Tribunal in Umuahia, the Abia State capital with the aim to upturn Kalu’s victory.

However, ruling on the matter, the tribunal last week upheld the declaration of the Deputy Speaker as the winner of the February poll.


Although there were insinuations that the Labour Party flagbearer may approach the court of appeal in a bid to set aside the ruling of the tribunal, but Chinasa told journalists on Friday that he has decided to end any further lawsuits, pledging allegiance to Kalu.

According to him, the Deputy Speaker posses the same objective of good representation of the people of Bende, stressing that Kalu remains his brother and and friend.

He said: “I am here to inform the world that I am no longer interested in taking the matter any further beyond the tribunal. This simply means that I have decided to let go of the case.

“Kalu and I have a history that has run into decades which cannot be ruined by the transient political activities of today. First, we are brothers from Bende.
“We are also good friends and we intrinsically share the same objective of good representation of our people”.

Re: Bende: I Won’t Appeal Tribunal Judgement – Labour Party’s Candidate by itsme01: 9:10pm On Sep 02, 2023
cool


He decided not to labour in vain

Tribunals lawyers charge as high as 20million

Femi Falana SAN , Mike Ozhekhome SAN , Wole Olanipekun SAN, won't even touch anything less than 50million retainer fee, and you pay them per adjournments and proceedings, they would even send lawyers in their chambers when busy

Last last they would give him contract to dig rural borehole, or supply rural electrification, transformers and cable or to renovate a block of class rooms at a primary school

Nothing wrong in that really. If the goal of going to the tribunal is to establish the truth, then it only makes sense you sheath your sword and fight another day once it is established.

But if your goal is to use the tribunal to win at all cost regardless of the fact on who won, then that's what is wrong.

See candidate of angel party after collecting gratification from DS house of rep changing tune but their supporters are everywhere fighting for labour party. My advice to Obi supporters is that stop creating enemy for yourself because of anybody. They don't value you, only value their pockets and family! Politicians can never change.
