PDP Loses Control Of Plateau Assembly As Appeal Court Sacks 11 Lawmakers by garfield1(op): 7:21am On Nov 25, 2023

The Court of Appeal sitting in Abuja on Friday, sacked 11 Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) lawmakers in the Plateau state assembly.

In a unanimous decision, the panel led by Justice Okon Abang, held that all the sacked lawmakers scored wasted votes at the time of the March 2023 general election because their party lacked structure.

He added that the PDP violated section 177 of the 1999 constitution, hence coypd not sponsor candidates in an election.

The court however declared all the second runners up in the March 18 elections as winners.

Those sacked are; Hon Timothy Dantong (Riyom), Hon. Rimyat Nanbol,- (Langtang North Central), Moses Sule (Mikang), Salome Waklek,-Pankshin, Hon. Bala Fwangji (Mangu South), Hon. Maren Ishaku (Bokkos), Hon. Dagogot (Quaanpan North) and Nannim Langyi,-(Langtang North North).

Others are Nimchak Rims (Langtang South) Hon. Danjuma Azi (Jos North West) Gwottson Fom (Jos South) and Hon. Abubakar Sani idris (Mangu North)
respectively.

The All Progressives Congress is now the leading party in the parliament.

Unfortunately PDP caused this by not following a court order before the election. It's sad and unfortunate.

Obasanjo and Maurice Iwu(Christians) were learners to what Tinubu and Yakubu(Muslims) are doing right now.

OK.

The judges were not corrupt in 2019 when they delivered the same judgement against APC in Zamfara and Rivers State.

In 2019 when the same scenario played out in Zamfara and Rivers state, when APC won the Bayelsa governorship election and the court invalidate the victory in Favour of PDP. Judiciary was the best then I think.

We knew this would happen. We begged and pleaded to avoid Tinubu by all means. We had seen it happen in Lagos.

But Obidients were all about Obi and no one else, going to the election fragmented. He should have joined hands with Atiku. Be rest assured that the era of elections determining leadership is over.

Welcome to National Lagos model 2.0

PDP can't complain because what happened in Zamfara in 2019 where court sacked all elected APC candidates and handed the PDP victory is what also happened now in Plateau State.

The Governor can not be impeached. Looking at the way Tinubu managed the Crises between Wike and Fubara, Akeredolu and his deputy. I don’t think the president will want any Governor to be impeached during his 1st term at least.

Before we blame APC, let's first condemn PDP's lack of legally recognized structure in plateau.

Yes, he is even worse.

It was Tinubu that told PDP to disobey Court order in its party structure.

You will cry for long.

This was the same judgement the Supreme Court gave against APC in Zamfara State in 2019. You rejoiced then, so cry and weep now.
