Am backing Muftwang, he seems popular, and is doing the right things.

But the problem is, PDP did not obey a judgement, and that issue is sticking in PDP's throat like a fish bone. Honestly, if one could go back in time, and tell PDP..Obey that court ruling...and they did, none of this would have been happening.

I know Plateau people don't like APC. But here we are. All because a court order was not obeyed.

Moventist:
APC has lost this one

In the ensuing exchanges between the court’s panel and Mr Olatoke, Mr Agim said, “There is heavy reliance on the judgement of the High Court. We have held in several decisions that the court has no jurisdiction to look into the election of party executives but only on primary election of candidates for elective offices.”

But Mr Olatoke would not budge, prompting another member of the panel, Helen Ogunwumiju to ask, “but do we continue to perpetuate the illegality of the High Court by assuming jurisdiction over a case it does not have the right to hear?”

In addition, Mr Agim asked if Mr Olatoke was aware of PDP’s Constitution that empowers its national executives to organise primary elections.

Pdp has lost this actually.you failed to post the full story

True but the court ordered them to conduct it in all the lgas.moreover in the eyes of the law,partial compliance is same as noncompliance
PDP obeyed the court order and conducted congress withing the LGAs of the state,some of the LGAs due to internal strife refuse to conduct the congress,does it mean PDP disobeyed court order.This case is a pure pre election matter.

Supreme Court can't go back to it vomit. This is a pre election matter which supreme Court had layed to rest. The court can't entertain issues of pre election matters in post election matters

Listen to the justices questioning APC counsel

Why are they reserving all the judgements at the supreme court's regarding the governorship elections. I hope it's not going to be decided by Tinubu or the highest.bidder as well usual?🙄

Partial compliance was as a result of some party members in some LGAs not obeying court order due to strife(this party members may be bribed by the opposition not to conduct congress),while some went ahead obeying court.The main point was did PDP really conducted a congress,disobedience of few judas within a party(pre election)should not lead to total cancellation.

Oga,supreme court is bound by the principle of stare decisis.it cannot go against the court judgment stopping pdp from sponsoring candidates...it must abide by it unfortunately son...you didn't post the complete court proceedings.read below




The Supreme Court yesterday reserved judgments in the governorship election appeals against Governors Caleb Mutfwang (Plateau) and Sheriff Oborevwori of Plateau (Delta).

[b]A five-member panel presided over by Justice John Okoro said parties would be notified when the judgments are ready for delivery.

Three appeals were filed on the Plateau and Delta polls.


Of the three on Plateau, the court heard the one filed by Mutfwang (SC/CV/1190/2023).

It was agreed that the decision in the one heard shall be applied to the appeal by the governor’s platform- the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), marked: SC/CV/1191/2023.

The third appeal, filed by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), was withdrawn by its lawyer, Samuel Atung (SAN).

The court made him realise that the other appeals were sufficient to resolve the dispute.


The three appeals are against the November 19 judgment of the Court of Appeal, which voided Mutfwang’s election.

Arguing his appeal, his lawyer, Kanu Agabi (SAN), urged the court to allow the appeal, set aside the judgment of the Court of Appeal and restore the judgment of the election tribunal which affirmed his client’s election.

Agabi argued that the Court of Appeal erred in reaching its conclusion that Mutfwang was not validity-sponsored and therefore not qualified to have contested.

He further argued that, as against the lower court’s finding that the PDP disobeyed an order of the High Court of Plateau State, the order was complied with, because the party conducted fresh congresses as directed.


Kanu contended that his client was validly nominated and sponsored by the PDP, adding that he won the majority of votes cast, which accounted for why INEC declared him the winner.

When asked by Justices Okoro and Emmanuel Agim about the effect of the subsisting order of the Plateau High Court on the candidacy of his client, Agabi said it has no effect because the PDP complied with the order.


He noted that the Court of Appeal equally agreed that PDP complied with the order, but only said there was no substantial compliance[/b]


Pdp disobeyed a court order and must pay for it.evej their lawyer admitted to this.
