State high courts are now turning to state independent electoral commission, Where incumbent governor party must emerge winner in LGA elections .
So true and that's why I fear State Police. However, on this case, the court is spot on. The 25 ex lawmakers automatically lost their seats the second they defected to the APC. In a sane society, they don't even need to court to wade in before packing their bags out of the legislative quarters.

As far as the 1999 Constitution is concerned, they are now ex lawmakers.

Re: Court Declares 25 Rivers Assembly Seats Vacant by Bigkoko:
You f••lishly trusted snakes instead of using mirror & white powder to sieve through whatever it is you do with them!
Chaiii..... Asiwaju don run Nwa-ike street! Stripped him naked for his political son to make mockery off!

Nwa-ike...... Ntoorrr! But I believe you Sha, Asiwaju go collect, no be cutlass man you be again!

I know you are fast strategizing! Let me give you the same advise Don Corleone gave to Micheal. "Anyone that comes up with the idea of a meeting with the Solozo is the traitor!"

So Nwa-ike, anyone who gave you the Advise to tell your boys led by Martins, to defect to APC, since you don't have to, is the traitor. That's the person they used to fvck you out of the 2027 equation. Let me give you a clue. Three persons played a key role in making sure you are destroyed, rendered useless before one year of Asiwaju Govt.

First suspect. That man that wears red cap up & down, just like you, who threw a jab at you early this month during Thanksgiving in an Igbo State capital, praising his political son that he's not like others who are fighting their political son! I no mention anybody name for Abakiliki Ohhh.

Second suspect. That alligator that thinks himself a crocodile. I think he is or was a charge and bail lawyer like you, in the US, helping small time keyboard warriors evade justice in the US. I no mention anybody name for Aso Rock or staff Chief ohhh.

Third suspect. ..... hahahaha 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣. This one go shock people. So make I just keep my Bigkoko mouth quiet!

Fight back or quietly keep quiet and enjoy your remaining loot! A new crop of Power brokers will rise before 2027, and you won't be one of them!

They all lost the election to LP but Wike rigged them in & also retired them, their political career gone, next election none will make it, even after eight they will keep begging for appointment that is the bad side of Rivers politics, they don't forgive & forget
.

Can you mention the names of 3 of the LP candidates? No make me laugh abeg.
Rivers people voted massively for PDP during the Guber/HOA elections.

For the Presidential election, we were divided between Obi and Asiwaju. Atiku was the third choice.

But you can not fault the judgement they gave, it's in line with the precedence already set in judgements involving lawmakers who decamped from the party that gave them the platform to become lawmakers and joined other parties

Re: Court Declares 25 Rivers Assembly Seats Vacant by ZIAZI(m): 5:09pm On May 30, 2024
There is a Court of Appeal judgement coming up next week that is still based on this defection issue. Until then, make we dey observe.

As some of una dey happy with this ruling, I no 1 hear "Our judiciary is helplessly corrupt" when it goes the other way.

Did they defect? This is a temporary and order not a judgment
Re: Court Declares 25 Rivers Assembly Seats Vacant by tj2018: 5:11pm On May 30, 2024
What does the electoral act say about defection when there is no division in the Party. The goofed on this one.
Why did wike not defect after all he holds no elected office.

They will impeach your father first, what do you know about what is happening? When an appeal rules in favour of the other side, will you still laugh and gloat like an imbeciile?
