if people are defecting from other parties , it should't be labour party and this shows that politicians in this part of the world lacks integrity.
This was a party that gave them the platform to ladder to achieve their ambitions and they all rode on the popularity of Mr Peter Obi to meet that ambition and now they felt they are popular.
its high time people who contest elections and defect lose their seats and elections to fill those positions conducted within the stipulated time in accordance to the electoral Act to stem this tide to save our democracy from mockery.

While won't they return to PDP when their principal officer Edeoga has returned to PDP...Politicians sef🤔

yarimo:
Defect and lose your seat is only applicable to rivers state, according to Obidients, Falana and ugochinyere

The bunch of nusiance will turn blind now.

SmartPolician:
The text didn't say someone defected to APC. If you join APC in Enugu, you are getting kicked out during the next election.

What if the gov joins APC? Will he be kicked out?

Peacecore:

The voters will have to decide that because that governor is outstanding. Except for the governor, anyone else is getting a butt kick!

Jman06:
It was in the amended electoral act but the recent supreme court judgement has voided that noble idea in the electoral act. I guess that's what has encouraged the current gale of defections!

Court rulings set precedents and that is why our lawyers and politicians ought to be careful with the kind of rulings they make in our courts.

post the constitutional section here

Will you keep quiet, the SC says there was no state Assembly in Rivers State since the Governor pulled down the building. So how can there be defection when there was no house in place. So, the SC has not voided anything, use same energy and ask these ones to lose their seats too. Since there is a Enugu state house of Assembly is well and running.

Which section of the amended electoral act?

Chai all these people use the popularity of Labor Party, Peter Obi and the Obidient movement to gain power knowing that they stood no chance with current bigwigs in APC or PDP. Now they are going back. This law of defection and losing your seat should really be in full swing now. What's wrong with this country?

The man of federal house of Rep made a mistake. If Obi is still in LP he has shot himself on the leg. LP will win majority of the national Assembly in Eastern region
