Can a judge withdraw or set aside his own judgment? Can someone provide a precedent to this?




Well, if the judge can withdrew its judgement based on the grounds you’ve stated, then I think the judge acted legally. Again, withdrawing the judgement simply means there is going to be a retrial. So technically, there is no judgement to even appeal not to talk of stay of execution. It will be very very inappropriate for the appeal court to even hear the appeal not to talk of staying the decision. At best, an accelerated retrial should be ordered.
We are witnessing a lot of dangerous precedents under your tin-god. That's what happens when you have a paranoid man in power who out of fear and desperation, has threatened, cajoled and coerced all governors and senators to decamp to his party and is now armtwisting the judiciary via proxies to procure favourable judgements that will ensure he has no opposition come 2027. I know that deep down, some of you with a mustard seed of conscience are getting concerned and will genuinely like to see a competitive election and not just a coronation by an aspiring dictator.

It is healthy and normal for democracy and also a lesson for all. It teaches us to tidy our home before we make the picture public.. Imagine someone with fake results, cut corner applicants etc. coming up to rule, don't you think it's a disaster? You are expected to block all loopholes and make sure you don't have a silly past otherwise you will be dining with the devil with a short spoon. Their lawyers are expected to advise them appropriately but are only after the money hence the reason opposition will have a field day. It's a game of chess, I have to block you to make a way for myself.

The nonsense happening in the country currently is deeply disturbing..

Looking for every suppressive opportunity to decimate the opposition is absurd.

They have been doing this from day 1 since they came in 2023. First, they ensured no other party won any off-cycle elections across the country.

This, to me is desperation and lack of patriotism at it its peak. You don't treat a country you claim to love this way in a desperate search for power retention. Nobody stays in power forever, so I want those currently in power to take a little pause and think about what life would be like when they are no more. Having subjected State Institutions to so much abuse.

I can't believe one day I would look back and think about what a democratic person Buhari was. That was someone we all thought would be a hardliner but he never imposed his selfish wills on anyone by hook or by crook. Intact of he had done that, the current administration won't be in power.

As you are carried away by the allure of power, always think about what posterity would remember you for.

did you read the post at all, the pmp has no legal right to that logo because they did not apply to be registered as a party in 2015 and does not exist as a registered group in anyway or form, whatever they are claiming in that court does not exist legally
This whole case is showing signs of apc agents interference no way for them to create factions in ndc as they usually does to other established parties they now decided to come up with this very mischievous case which definitely bound to hit the rocks.

Eriokanmi:
Logo stealer ? Since when has the victory logo been customized for a particular political party or entity in this world? This shallow thinking is so synonymous with the apc supporters, but why? The case has failed from it's beginning.

If the apc is not fighting the ADC, they are fighting the NDC via court. A lot is wrong with them obviously and they cant escape the masses judgement next year. Where's the PDP today? They did even worse ahead of the 2025 elections.

Buhari allowed INEC to carry out off-cycle elections without interference. Several State gubernatorial elections and Parliamentary elections were carried out under him with opposition parties winning significant numbers. Infact under him, his party lost an entire state to the opposition. That my dear, is how a democratic space thrives. It keeps everyone on their feet to do normal. But what we have now is a group of persons deciding for the entire country their own way. That, history taught us, never ends well.

is that why you have to steal their logo?
Re: Dickson Rejects Lokoja Court Order Vacating Party Registration Order As Illegal by mastermaestro(m):
Obi had three whole years to establish his own party, but kept going about like a spineless mouse. I don’t even trust the Dickson and his group. Why Obi thinks those guys are on his side sincerely beats my imagination!

See people wey you dey call allies. Chai! Obi is not a smart politician. Imagine a supposed major opposition candidate not knowing where to ply his trade for three whole years. Common nau! At least you could have secretly founded and funded a party through a reliable proxy.


Let us assume these court hurdles pass, how is Obi going to cope with the national leadership and its untamed vipers? Instead of fighting dirty for the control of LP while secretly setting up another political platform, dude was busy running from one function to another.

It may already be over for Obi, sadly.

Here individuals are stronger than the weak institutions here some hungry folks can be used to destabilize the system. In climes where institutions are strong, we won't even find ourselves in such situation in the first place.[left][/left]

This, to me is desperation and lack of patriotism at it its peak. You don't treat a country you claim to love this way in a desperate search for power retention. You can't claim to be demcrat who fought for democracy and still r*pe the same demoracy this way when given..

Indeed those who said Nigeria would get their second Independence when they defeat the APC and emilokan were very correct.🤔🤔
Speaking about Buhari's time, I share the same view. Do you remember when he received both factions of the Ogun APC in Aso Rock? The man said go and fight for yourself instead of looking for endorsement

Let me help you out.

Following his re-election in September 2020 under the People's Democratic Party (PDP), Governor Obaseki paid a thank-you visit to President Buhari (who belonged to the opposing APC party). He explicitly thanked the President for keeping his promise not to interfere with the electoral process, allowing the will of the people to prevail.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L9dslxXW88Y

Other Governors Who Made Similar Commendations:
1. Governor Charles Soludo (Anambra State): After winning his election in November 2021 under the APGA banner, Soludo similarly praised Buhari for his neutrality and ensuring a transparent voting process.

2. Governor Aminu Bello Masari (Katsina State):
Following his 2019 re-election victory, he visited the State House to thank the President, who in turn reiterated his desire to leave a legacy of free and fair elections.

3. The Osun State Governor, Ademola Adeleke, famously visited President Muhammadu Buhari at the State House in Abuja specifically to thank him for ensuring a free and fair election.

4. Willie Obiano (Anambra State): Ahead of and following his 2017 re-election victory under the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA), Obiano praised Buhari's democratic integrity. He consistently thanked the President for keeping his word to guarantee a level playing field rather than deploying "federal might" to rig the state for the ruling party.

Re: Dickson Rejects Lokoja Court Order Vacating Party Registration Order As Illegal by bentenny(m):
'Functus officio'
The moment a judge gives a judgement,he cannot reverse it.
He can only refer the aggrieved parties to appeal his judgement!
Secondly,why would an unregistered political party wait until after 6 months before pleading with the court to set aside its earlier judgement knowing that after 3 months,the matter becomes status barred?

Lastly,INEC main reason in their submission before the court for its refusal to register NDC was due to party logo conflicts/similarity with APC which was proven to be false which prompted the judge to demand INEC to register NDC!
No where in INEC submission was PMP included as defence!

Like I have said before,this latest judgement once again exposes the inconsistencies and apparent weakness of our judical institutions which will further strengthen the argument that most of the judges are in the pockets of the executive!
