Which one is ZLP again. All for money.

DomPerignon:
Did ZLP meet all the minimum thresholds outlined by the Electoral act ?

Answer: No.

So why are they bullying the judge for simply doing his job in interpreting the law?

It's time the NASS pass laws to prevent the bullying of judges .

Since Obidients came to the scene , they have been attacking the Judiciary and any judge who doesn't rule in their favour.

A law must be passed to which any one or body that threatens, bullies , slanders any judge should face stiff penalties

If you have problem with a judge then appeal the judgment and petition the NJC over his or her conduct .

DomPerignon:
That means they are free to contest for LGA elections.

They, however, failed to meet the 25% minimum votes in any one state and the FCT across the federation.

That means they have been automatically relegated to the Local Govt league ..

They can't even field candidates for the state or federal House of Assembly, governorship and Presidency.

They are now in Isthmian League.

lightwind:
He dey sweet you now, look how you are writing jargons of English on Nigeria social media spaces and you don't live here in Nigeria with us.

You are living all the way in white mans land, and doing cho cho cho in Nigeria politics and it's not that you are going to vote in our election.

Ironfaceman:
Wow 15 chairman, that is commendable. But I'm thinking the rule means it should be spread across different offices as well.

IsraeliAIRFORCE:
The judgment is deregistration. Winning 15 LGAs in a State, and these are currently serving chairmen of Local Government Areas. INEC or Court Judgement cannot abolish a platform they came into power when their terms in office subsist.

ZLP deregistration: ‘This judgement will now expose you’ – Nwanyanwu tell Justice Lifu, Federal High Court

DomPerignon:
Counter what I posted and stop spewing saliva everywhere.

According to the new electoral act, ZLP has been relegated to Local Govt league.

They can not field candidates for any position higher than local govt chairman.

Tell Dan Iyanwayu to return all the money he got from selling forms to aspirants under ZLP.

DomPerignon:
Those in office are not affected.

But going forward, ZLP can not field candidates for any position higher than local govt chairman in the next elections because they were not able to meet the minimum threshold for other offices.

IsraeliAIRFORCE:
Get lost. What a childish inference. Where did you read that a political party can only exist at the local level? Which electoral law or constitution was it written.

A deregistered party no longer exist as a party in the INEC registry, be it at the local or national level.

sreamsense:
Waste of time! The judge that jailed and threw Nnamidi Kanu into the prison dungeon he belongs, how many times has he been exposed till date? Tell us the new government you expect to take over that is capable of sanitizing our judiciary, but don't forget to show us examples of judiciary reform or similar that new government had done before to convince us. However, do noy try to be a joke of yourself by mentioning one Obi of Agulu that proposed of releasing an international terrorist serving jail term in Kano as mode of judiciary reform you want Nigeria to accept ?

You don't just remove person, you must make provision for more competent candidates that are better than Tinubu practically. At moment, prove that new government that will come and do magic for us with strong evidences of what they had achieved before to convince us how they are better candidates than Tinubu, but don't ever mention Obi or Atiku because those ones are still below Tinubu and will make judiciary worse

AMINDA:
Tinubu has seen the data that we have all seen. He has no pathway to re-election through the ballots. He should just cut to the chase and declare himself president. The fear and trepidation is palpable and moves like this only end up putting off his genuine supporters and demoralising even his hard-core tribal fanatics.

ogascomax:
Your defence na mumu defence because ADC won two house of representatives. So what was the merit for delisting it. ZLP won Jigawa State house assembly. They one a sit too.

Ofunaofu:
Tinubu has no clear path to victory, and he knows it.

Majority of Nigerians, across tribes, religion and ethnicity want him out. After what they have endured under his administration, the thought of a second term is frightening and difficult to imagine.

Even if he intends to rig the election, you still need a reasonable level of popularity to make it believable. Right now, he doesn't appear to command even 20% support nationwide.

Campaign season is around the corner. What exactly is he going to tell Nigerians? That the hardships of the first term were just a rehearsal for the second?

SlavaUkraini:
Where will he get his victory from... ?

The South West alone cannot hand him victory

Your response actually proves my point. You seem more interested in defending personalities than defending institutions.

judicial reform is not about removing judges because they ruled for or against a particular politician. It is about ensuring accountability, independence, and public confidence in the courts. Any judge found to have compromised the integrity of the judiciary should face scrutiny regardless of whose side they are perceived to be on.

Now, your fixation on Nnamdi Kanu says more about your bias than it does about judicial reform. It comes across as ethnic bile and bigotry when you repeatedly single him out, yet remain silent about the thousands of Boko Haram terrorists, bandits, and ISWAP fighters that the current administration, are rehabilitating and reintegrating into society. Why is your outrage reserved for one individual while you ignore armed groups responsible for mass killings, kidnappings, maiming of school children and teachers across the country?

Demanding that I produce a messiah or say what they have achieved before I can criticize a government is a strange standard. Nigerians are not obligated to endorse any particular politician before pointing out the current failures in governance, the economy, security, or the judiciary.

Finally, democracy is not a loyalty test. The question is not whether someone is Obi, Atiku, Tinubu, or anyone else. The question is whether our institutions are working for Nigerians. If citizens believe they are not, they have every right to demand change at the ballot box.

Supporting a government should never mean defending every weakness in the system. It should mean demanding better from those in power.
