The fact is that Judiciary's treatment of presidential election petitions over the years has always been about avoiding political crises rather than giving justice to petitioners. From Obasanjo, Yar'adua, Buhari and now Tinubu, the worry facing the judges has always been the likely effect of judgement on political stability of Nigeria. Of course, financial inducement or any other interferences may not be ruled out but the mindset of judges is that all politicians are the same and none is worth sacrificing the stability of the country for. Interestingly, in spite of favourable PEPT and Supreme Court rulings in 2014, late Umaru Yar'adua accepted that the election that brought him to office was not free and fair and consequently appointed Uwais committee to suggest ways of strengthening electoral process.

For example in Tinubu's case, outright cancellation wouldn't have solved any problem because:
- The acting president who would have overseen new election is Senate President Godswill Akpabio who is dependable Tinubu's ally.
- The same INEC team that organized the cancelled election would have organized the new election and even in the situation that another INEC chairman is required, Akpabio would still have power to appoint.
- The IG of police who would have overseen the security during the elections would have been a Tinubu boy with 100% loyalty
- Same for security chiefs who would have done everything possible to retain their offices as Tinubu losing means loss of job for them.
In other word, ordering a new election wouldn't actually solved problem except create political crises apart from heavy financial burden on the treasury.

This is why It is important to make uploading results from polling booths mandatory part of the INEC's transmission of results to the collation centre. Otherwise, the current "go to court" shenanigans will continue.
I don't Understand, are you trying to claim some polling units results were change?

The oppositions were giving the chance to prove how they won

Obi could have become the president now if he only told the tribunal how he won instead of wasting time on about drug case, fake certificate etc

I remember how these guys stalked and attacked the man last year. The never knew it'll come w time when their final fate would rest with him. They always act before they think, reason why they've made an enemy of just about everyone outside their region.

No serious country adopt something without having the necessary infrastructure to power it.

If we are to have an election and somehow people are disenfranchised because of not able to upload their result, we will have the same problem of people dragging parties to the court.

It’s just as saying because USA use cashless system, then Nigeria should just copy it in totality. We’ve seen what could happen during the cash confiscation of CBN. Even bank infrastructures fail it and people are not able to spend money.

For over a year or so, I have not held a single $$ cash and most of my transaction is done electronically which is because USA have the neccessary infrastructure to power it. But can same thing be done in Nigeria straight up without having the right infrastructure in place?

He got victory at the Supreme Court. Let him head there, in life ITS NOT OVER UNTIL IT IS OVER, you sit in one room holding a tecno bad phone and insult, deciding a man who has been successful in banking, business, politics ,corporate world, etc

Because of politics for a successful man also Tinubu, pathetic.

Never mock men who are great, who don dare their destiny, look their future in the eyeballs and taken it, I respect Tinubu, Atiku, and Obi, they came saw and conquering, they attained heights even if some are higher than some, but they have gotten to high levels.

Respect them, pick one or two from each of them, apply to your life,

Each one have an incredible qualities you aren’t see because of politics, tribe.

Lets wait for the Supreme Court judgement on this and what the reaction would be if it doesn't end in the opposition's favour.

I'm also surprised that both PDP and LP are not even trying to show why either of them should not be considered as winner in the unlikely case the SC rules against Tinubu.

What of states won by PDP? Will the LP say all PDPs result are accurate and only the APC results are not?

Or in the states LP won, would PDP say those results are accurate, and that's is just the APC results that are wrong.

All I can see are two parties ganging up against one while not making any case for why they score more legitimately than the winner and the other runnerup.

Wike, the chief rigger.
Wike just said that Tinubu won because of muslim muslim ticket and many didn't vote for Obi because he is Igbo.
Exactly!
He actually said Nigeria politics isn't abt competence but ethnicity and religion which is actually very worrying. Nigeria 'll never get it if things continue this way.

Look at the way Agbadorians made Obidient movement an ethnic one with the aim of outrightly making it an Igbo/Ipob movement but it's okay for MU-Mu ticket, Boko Haram chieftain as vice. Drug dealer who everything abt himself is questionable as President.
Senate President still has an Efcc case pending. Appointment of people questionable character all around him.
Now Tinubu is Nigeria President will Nigeria get better or will it just be a case of the Northers massaging their ego with Buhari is own while languishing in pernury.
True democratic politics shouldn't turn people hostile against each other.
People need to come together for common good of the nation and leave ethnicity and religion out of it.
I personally supported Obi cos he's younger, more frugal and less corrupt of the three main candidates. That doesn't mean he must win but people should at least have a common goal of electing a capable hands instead of this tribalistic bullshit. We 'll all suffer the consequences of bad leadership one way or the other, whether rich or poor
Re: Wike: Judiciary Right When Obi Reclaimed Mandate As Gov, Wrong When He Lost by IfnobeGod20(m): 7:45pm On Sep 08, 2023
Wike was wrong, Obi reclaimed his mandate on the 15th March, 2006 and he was sworn in in 17th March, 2006 and not 2007 claimed by Wike.
As human, when issue is favourable to us, we rarely complained but if not on our favour, we complain to high heaven. That is the nature of man. Let the table turn now, you hear someone like Wike spewing brimstone. I remember in the year 2014 when PDP was having internal issue, how he was restless and attacking any opposition that is attackable. It's never a new thing.

so true, I always believe elections should also be held early enough to allow tribunal judgement before inauguration, but the most important is to mandate inec on compulsory upload and more transparency.

LegendHero:
What will uploading result from polling booth on Irev Portal solve? Let’s talk about magnitude in percentage.

Uploading result from polling booth won’t stop rigging. Infact, if irev result alone is declared as the source of truth, it will only lead to chaos and e-rigging.

1. Usually, rigging occurs in rural areas which are away from the eyes of media. You can bribe other party agents or threaten them and they upload doctored result on irev and that’s all.

2. Hackers can easily jam INEC network and then upload their own version of signed results.

3. If you mean to say both paper result given to party agents and irev portal should be used as source of truth, then what happens when an official is unable to upload result due to bad network is so remote area on time? Will they disenfranchise the people and cancel their votes because of that?

4. Peter Obi lawyers are deceivers. When Tinubu was up against PDP back then at the tribunal, he did not depend on INEC alone to prove his case for those ACN governors, but rather he went to bring independent forensic investigators to show that the number of time it takes to thumbprint some of the ballots is 5sec which is against the natural 5-15 min.

5. Now let’s even say INEC don’t like Obi. Then why can’t Obi ask his party agents to bring the result sheet they have, then look for some of the result on Irev and then compare them. If there is massive scale rigging, there is no way in hell where over 50% of the result on Irev will tally with the agent result sheet. So why did he present blank sheet when he can present actual Irev result that shows and use it as his evidence? Except if you are telling me the only result on Irev are blank.

Lastly, Obi is a sore loser. He cannot use back door to claim legitimacy of the federal republic president. That seat is bigger than him. He is a loser and DID NOT WIN ANY ELECTION.
They don't have enough agents... The preparation was just not enough... Something they were supposed to have been doing for like three years they just wanted to pull it all of a sudden... Awon arindin... Naso e easy ...

You obviously don’t know how easy it is to manipulate things online. If it’s by IREV, forget it it’s the easiest to manipulate. Hackers are in existence. Plenty of them. You’ll see different results in circulation and you’ll be shocked yourself..
