Bros u don't sign the document prepared by board of internal revenue when u make request for such clearance the board issues the clearance and signs the document
In this case it was issued on request of ikpeazu to Inec
So its left for the board to appear as defence and proof why it under or over estimated ikpeazu as the case maybe

odiks:


You are still banking on this line of thought....? Agreed that the tax certificate didn't originate from him but did he read it before signing them or are you saying he signed them without even going through it? An executive Governor to be?

What a stupid explanation.

The tax certificate doesn't originate from the payee hence the information is true to the best of his knowledge at the point of submission.

Civil/Public Servants pay tax installmentally in advance (before the year ends)

What do knw about tax. How can tax be paid installmentally in advace before year end. Please tax is deducted from ur earnings. Get ur facts right before ur post non sense

“The, court, therefore made consequential orders under the doctrine of ‘lis pendens,’ which disallows any transfer of rights or interest in any subject matter that is being litigated upon during the pendency of litigation in respect of the said subject-matter.

“The court, accordingly, declared Dr. Ogah as the winner of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) primaries and should be issued with Certificate of Return accordingly.”[/color]




http://thenationonlineng.net/ikpeazu-sacked-abia-governor-court/

The judgement was on PDP Gubernatorial Primaries in Abia state, not on the election proper.

So why award victory on election proper to Ogah who didn't contest the election; and thereby kick on the assss of the hundreds of thousands of Abia electorate who voted their candidate of choice? That's not done.
That Rotimi Amaechi case doesn't come in here.

A clean judge would order a fresh election at worse.

Exactly. Just a stupid explanation indeed. I believe the judge has special interest hence his decision to see that Ikpeazu is removed. The explanation has no strength at all.

"The court said the case before Justice Allagoa bothered on alleged forgery or falsification of tax certificate and receipts for 2011, 2012, 2013 and 2014 by Dr. Ikpeazu."

I just read this part the second time and I begin to wonder if the Abuja High Court wants to influence the Court of Appeal before it even sits?

Is this not the same Registrar who prepared the copies of the judgement at the speed of light against all norms?

What authority does Justice Abang has to interpret the judgement given by Justice Allagoa?

It's now obvious that Abang is trying to save face from the obvious which everybody knows. He fumbled hence this press release which amounts to sub prejudice.

It is becoming clearer by the day that this judgement was bought and it was intended to mount a political coup in collaboration with INEC Chief who signed Certificate of Return immediately the judgement was given, two days before Uche Ogar asked for it.

I am beginning to put one and two together to arrive at three. Now I understand.

The judgement was bought. At the end, the truth MUST come out. The judge has personal interest hence his judgement.

Ikpeazu definitely goofed. As a civil servant, his tax was deducted at source so all he needed to do was to get all details of his TIN-tax identification number, printed for him and subsequently given to INEC. But he foolishly went to make a different tax clearance document- was he paying double tax?

The Federal High Court on Friday said Justice Okon Abang ordered Abia State Governor, Dr. Okezie Ikpeazu’s sack because the judge found that he allegedly submitted false tax information to the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC).

The court said the case had nothing to do with forgery of tax documents.

The court’s Chief Registrar, Emmanuel Gakko, said in a statement that there were two different cases against Ikpeazu.


He said one of the cases was filed by Sir Friday Nwosu with Dr. Ikpeazu and Dr. Sampson Uche Ogah as defendants. The case was before Justice Ambrose Allagoa.

In the second suit before Justice Abang, Dr. Ogah was the plaintiff, while Dr. Ikpeazu and Sir Nwosu were the defendants.

The court said the case before Justice Allagoa bothered on alleged forgery or falsification of tax certificate and receipts for 2011, 2012, 2013 and 2014 by Dr. Ikpeazu.

In deciding the case, Justice Allagoa held that “a mere nebulous averment is not enough for the purpose of pleading the crime of forgery.”

According to the judge, “forgery is a criminal offence and must be proved, which the plaintiff failed to do.”

The statement added: “The court further held that by the affidavit of the Abia State Director of Taxes testifying that the documents are genuine, the court held that there was presumption of genuineness of the assessment and the certificate and/or receipts issued to Dr. Ikpeazu.

“The court further held that the consequential reliefs have become unnecessary for the court’s consideration.

“It should be noted that the court did not make any consequential orders with regard to the position of the governor other than the allegation of forgery.”


The Chief Registrar said the case before Justice Abang had a different subject-matter, that Dr. Ikpeazu submitted form CF001 to INEC which were alleged to contain false information.

“The court held that the information in Form CF001 as shown by him (Ikpeazu) in the affidavit accompanied with other documents to INEC are false and has nothing to do with forgery.

“The, court, therefore made consequential orders under the doctrine of ‘lis pendens,’ which disallows any transfer of rights or interest in any subject matter that is being litigated upon during the pendency of litigation in respect of the said subject-matter.

“The court, accordingly, declared Dr. Ogah as the winner of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) primaries and should be issued with Certificate of Return accordingly.”


The Chief Registrar said the clarification became necessary in view of “misrepresentation of facts as published in some electronic and print media and comments by both legal practitioners and laymen on the correct facts of the cases involving the Abia State Governor and the Judgment of Hon. justice O. E. Abang and Hon. Justice A. L. Allagoa.”


http://thenationonlineng.net/ikpeazu-sacked-abia-governor-court/


Mr. Abang should not have been an attorney talk less a judge. How did this goofy stiff determine that the information on CF001 Dr. Ikpeazu submitted to INEC contained false information? Is this dumbass judge a final arbiter on what constituted truth? Who was the expert witness that certified that the information on form was false? How did this moronic judge ascertain that the said documents have not be tampered since in the custody of the useless INEC? Nigeria a dead jungle.

This is not the Registrar of just one particular Federal High Court but this is coming from the overall chief Registrar of Federal High Court's in Nigeria. A little Google will help out on this and take note of the word CHIEF

http://www.fhc-ng.com/cr.htm

Just like you have several Federal High Court judges in various division but with Justice Ibrahim Auta as the overall head (ie the Chief Judge of FHC) who assigns cases to the various judges so also you have Mr Emmanuel Gakko as the Chief Registrar of Federal High Court in Nigeria and he is the one doing the clarification or what you call interpretation and not Justice Abang or the registrar in his own court. The Chief Registrar is appointed by the Federal Judicial Service Commission and reports to the Chief Judge himself ie in this case Justice Auta while the Deputy Chief Registrars are posted to serve at the various divisions of the federal high court or in other capacities.

Some of the past chief registrars of the federal high court includes

Mrs. R.O. Olomojobi (1988-1991); Mr. A.O. Ajakaiye(1993-1998); Mrs. C.M.A. Olatoregun-Isola (1993-2000); Alhaji Salisu Saidu (2001-2002); Mrs. A.A. Okeke (2002-2008); Mr. N. Ayo-Emmanuel (2008-2012); Mrs. Oghoghorie (2012-2015) and Mr Emmanuel Gakko (2015 till date)

See link below for a comprehensive list

http://www.fhc-ng.com/registrars.htm

Recall also that their was a report {https://www.nairaland.com/3218789/abia-mahmud-mohammed-queries-auta#47417814} last week which said the CJN queried the Chief Judge of the FHC for assigning the Ikpeazu’s case to two different judges of the FHC when the issues involved were similar maybe this is clarification to that effect.

I guess the key issue is that Ikpeazu filled false info on the inec forms he submitted at the primaries which amounts to perjury, and that can knock him off the seat
