The affidavit was not before the supreme court according to you so the case dies
Yes, it wasn't.
I just read through the 62-page document though I have my doubts because of its non-certification. No case of defection came up but after Friday we will know whether it's the original.
Ojuntana:
This copy might be fake

None of the page is signed or stamped .
We should be wary of fake news
I have my doubts too because the 62-page document I just read, neither of the pages have the SC certification stamp nor the Registrar's signature. Let's wait nonetheless!

Really....
If someone happens to wear a polo shirt bearing the insignation of any political party does that make that individual a member of the party even if he sings their mantra song?




Now, let's take it further,
If one is seen putting on a polo shirt bearing IPOB or UGM and even if the fello chants their songs does it signify that such is a member?



Have you not also come across people who are not members of secret cult who exchange a specific cult handshake and speaks their lingua......will you consider such a member of the cult without doing your due diligence?
I watched the proceedings of that day in which the clearly announced their defection. It was when the state Court declared their seat vacant that they clearly made a U-turn and said that they are still members of PDP

I can even tell you that even the judges both from that State level and Federal level might have watched those videos....


But the real business of the Court is......

(1) Did those who declared their seat vacant show that video as evidence?
(2) Did they also get a copy of the purported affidavit and add to their documents as proof ?
(3) Can they actually prove that Ahmaewule and his co travellers have decamped to the APC or any other party?
(4) We know the function of an affidavit, but why do you really think and feel that it should be useful in this particular case of decamping?
(5) Does that mean anyone can get an affidavit for whatsoever reason and purpose to declare whatever they like and want and it will stand or honoured by the Court of oaths?

No high court will put body in this matter as e be



The fact that I held Spanish flag during euro league and declared myself a Spaniard doesn't make me one!!
Tell those emotional wrecks they don't know. illiteracy will not kill them.

Racoon:
Black is white and white is black in Nigeria. Always legalising illegalities. The courts will go down in infamy.
Shut up nothing like that, you are only just crying because things do not go your way. what is the proof they defected answer or remain quiet.

Hemanwel:
President Tinubu is brazenly abusing power in this country, using the judiciary as his accomplice
You are they one who didn't calculate and get all your facts well, before emotionally jumping into conclusion, Wike is a lawyer and knows the law too well and can use it against anyone he chooses to use it against.

Racoon:
You know the truth but continue. Their affidavit to that effect is still there.
Then you can sue them for lying under oat, that is also a crime. so if i swear an affidavit that i am a US citizen today, then does that automatically make me a US citizen, even if i swear an affidavit that i am not a Nigerian citizen does that automatically make me lose my citizenship? clowns everywhere.

Herdsmen:
Olboy

Here nigeria is gone

Supreme Court is gone

Justice is gone

He who dares win

Court dwells on evidence to adjudicate as you know. They all submitted a written letter with their signatures well appended to Fubara, ceasing to be members of the PDP. Even if they're not card carrying or registered members of the apc or any political party, the road is clear enough. That will be used against them.

It's just like you resigning from working with a company. Whichever company you joined or whatever you do with your life subsequently is none of your ex-empkoyer's business. You cannot resign and now want to come back to work. That letter you submitted is enough to nail you, should you wish to play smart.

When the supreme court said the law makers aren't members of the apc, the court was right. They're also not members of the pdp. The letters they submitted is a proof.
You are almost right with this your analogy and submissions but you are not totally right.

Firstly,let me start with your analogy of a company staff resigning.
Yes, it's true that when once you resign from a company it's not their business whether you have joined another company or not.
But the main issue is this,how do you chanel your resignation letter in a company?
You cannot just see a Cleaner or even your colleague in a company ,for instance,and say take my resignation letter,am no longer with this company.
That your action is null and void bcuz the Cleaner is not the appropriate person or office you should have tendered your resignation to.
Whatsoever happened to Head of Human Resources or MD/CEO of that company!

Secondly,in the case of Fubara and the 27 House members, you said they submitted their resignation letters to Fubara (Governor).
The question you should ask yourself is,was the governor the right person or office they should have tendered their resignation to?
The Constitution is very clear on this.
Take your resignation to your ward chairman or ward secretary.
When you register as a party member, you did it at ward level and was issued a membership card.
You cannot register as a member of a political party in governor's office, therefore you cannot resign there too.
So for them to have submitted their resignation letters to the governor in the first place was an illegality on its own.
The judgment is fairly based on the spirits and letters of the law.

I am not a supporter of either Wike or Fubara.
But I am commenting on the basis of this judgement.

That's the mischief the Supreme Court did

They clearly stated "They are not members of APC"

But did not state

"They left PDP"


Cus the whole world knows they left PDP.
No,they did not leave PDP.
Did their various ward chairmen or secretaries receive their resignation letters officially?
Until then,they are still official members of the PDP.
The governor they submitted their resignation letters to wasn't the right person they should have.
The Attorney General of the state fails woefully in his duty to advise the governor well on this matter.

Falana has lost every respect I have for him honestly.

Fine Fubara is a rookie in politics but Falana is a old man in this game who shouldn't mislead him just for money sakes.


Even people that aren't lawyers already no you can't decamp to another party without being a card carrying member.


In all this I just hate the fact river state money is just wasted on useless political fights.

2yrs of useless political fights......wike and fubara should go to HELL.
Falana was just trouble shooting. Most lawyers do that. They argue blindly and quote sections to support it, mixed with heady oratory.

Why will a Speaker of a State House Assembly give a letter of resignation to the State Governor.......What is the business of the governor in it?

Let's assuming the Speaker was not a party to the decamping, it is him who receives the letter of resignation from other members of the SHA and then it either declares their seat vacate or so otherwise...

So I don't believe the Speaker gave Gov. Fubara their letter of resignation. That is not how the SHA operates and they are not employees of the governor.


Why were we told that they had gone to the court to remove their sworn affidavit from where it was offered them knowing fully well that they have a copy to the State Governor!!!!

Please reason some of these things well welll

This has rendered whatever is coming from the high court useless.

Those assembly members by word of mouth alone cannot be said to be APC members, they have not registered to have joined APC neither is their names in the APC register or collected APC membership cards

A political party is not an employment, a job appointment.

It is not mandatory to write a resignation letter to leave a party.

If it is show me the clause in any of the parties' constitutions.

Some do while some don't.

When Atiku, Amaechi, Saraki and Co stormed out angrily out of PDP convention ground in 2014, do you think they wrote resignation letter?

When politicians do rallies and you hear 12,000 people decamped to another party, you want to tell me that those 12,000 people wrote resignation letters?
grin
Dey play.

I know you guys know the truth, but as usual you would say anything no matter how ridiculous, just to prove your argument.


Again there is no law that mandates a decampee to write a resignation letter..

You only register with your new party and the old party strikes out your name from their register.

According to the judge, only the party register can validate membership. So, affidavit is irrelevant to validate an action.
