Exactly.

My initial reaction was: If INEC postponed Edo election days to the election, what stops them from doing same...However, unlike in Edo, sensitive election materials had not been deployed before INEC (due to pressure from Oshiomhole & FG) postponed that election.

Besides, Jegede's argument is about logistics, not law. PDP and not Jegede's name is what is on the ballot. The party agents forwarded by the Poroye faction are all members of the PDP. Besides, the role of polling agents is to be present at the distribution of election materials and at the polling booth. The Electoral Act clearly provides that the non-attendance/non recognition of polling agents cannot invalidate an election. Jegede is a SAN. He should know better.

Yes, you are right but i want you to view it from this angle, the job of an agent in election day is to monitor voting process to guide against rigging, now that the jegede agent list has not been forwarded, the poroye faction will just get there and make sure everything go against jegede, so it's a precautionary move but since they said poroye list will be discarded, then jegede should forward his list asap.. me. I don't want any postponement.. Make we do wetin we wan do once and 4 all... Lest i forget, EYI WU MIII

The Peoples Democratic Party candidate for the Ondo Stare governorship election, Eyitayo Jegede, has appealed to the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, to postpone Saturday’s election for at least 30 days.
He said this would allow the party to submit a list of its agents in good time before the election as provided for in the Electoral Act 2010.
The Act stipulates that each party should make their party agents available to the commission, 14 days before the day of election.
The Biyi Poroye faction of the PDP had submitted a list of party agents to the commission before the expiration of the deadline for Jimoh Ibrahim, who was removed by Wednesday’s Appeal Court judgment.
Mr. Jegede, who led a protest to the INEC state headquarters at Alagbaka, in Akure on Thursday, told the Resident Electoral Commissioner, Olusegun Agbaje, that the postponement was necessary in order not to be in breach of the Electoral Act.
He also submitted a letter he addressed to the Chairman of the Commission, Mahmood Yahkoob, demanding the postponement of the election.
“It follows from the foregoing that any list of agents purportedly forwarded by one Poroye and his fellow pretenders who had been illegally parading themselves as the state executive members of the PDP, Ondo State cannot be regarded as authentic,” the letter read in part.
“As it is, the peoples democratic party has not forwarded the list of its agents to the commission.
“Whichever way one may look at the situation on ground, the governorship election of Ondo state slated for 26th November, if conducted, will undoubtedly be in breach of the Electoral Act 2010 as amended.
“It is in light of the foregoing that I request you to differ the governorship election for Ondo State for at least 30 days so as not to conduct the election in flagrant violation of the Electoral Act 2010 as amended.”
But Mr. Agbaje said INEC had gone past the issue of postponement, given that it had distributed sensitive materials to all the local governments already for the elections.
He insisted that the commission was prepared for the election come Saturday.
“We can no longer talk about postponement of the election right now,” he said. “The matter is an internal dispute within the PDP and so we cannot be talking about postponement.
“If we postpone the election, we will be losing billions of naira knowing that we have already deployed sensitive and non-sensitive materials to all the local government areas of the state.”
He said the list of party agents would be received from the Mr. Jegede and the former one would be discarded.
The materials which were supplied directly from the vault of the Central Bank of Nigeria, CBN, in Akure include ballot papers, result sheets and other forms that would be used to collate the results.
Mr. Agbaje said adequate security had been provided to escort the materials to the respective local government areas.

Guess you need time to campaign for electorate to know the emergency candidate they are voting for? Did you just know this today? Wishy washing arrangement. What if INEC is in Ondo already with their materials, would you tell to go back becos you suddenly found your voice after mimiko educated you on what to say? Anyway, miniko's several meeting might just do the magic to save your face. Our politicians are group of gamblers who wants positions, yet they have No idea of what they are going there to do, all they want is for ordinary Nigerians to vote them in to go and steal. Thieves.

the election must not be postponed.

How can the election be postponed cause of one man's or a party's internal wrangling? It is better if inec conducts the polls tomorrow self.jegede is no serious,he knows he has lost already.he would only win in akure south and north and ondo east and west marginally.oke would win the whole of ondo south and idanre and ifedore lgas.he wuould winat least two lgas in akoko land.aketi would take the remaining 6 councils.up oke.but apc can rig and win the whole of ondo north,3 lgas in central and two in south.if not,oke is the next governor

The euphoria over the court victory disappeared immediately Jegede/Mimiko returned to the battlefield. Their supporters have left them. Defeat is staring them in the face. Unless the election is postponed, Jegede stands no chance.

From feelers, Oke (AD) is the next governor! However, Akeredolu's (APC) federal might must NEVER be underrated.

bravo, bros u really know book

He betrayed Adefarati, Agagu, Adetokubo, Tinubu, Salami, Jonathan, sheriff, Jimoh and others just like that and what do you expect again from someone like that ?

Baseless grounds. His party has met all the requirements.

The law requires the party (and not INEC),to make available, the list of party agents,14 days.....

Therefore,if at all, its PDP that would have violated the law and not INEC.The use of the word "should is also instructive"

However,PDP is still one in the eye of the law.What we had were mere factional executives,one authentic and the other illegal.PDP as a party should be distinct from PDP factional leaders.

The law allows for substitution and that is what is expected of the now authentic executives .

It is very shameful that a so called SAN ,can not effectively interpret the law.

The nation cannot be held to ransome, because of internal leadership tussle of a party.

BTW, if elections are postponed to say December 23,and on December 21,another court rules that Segun Abraham is the authentic candidate of APC,would it not be "Fair" for Abraham to call for another postponement?

Common sense indeed is not common!

BACKOUT IF U KNOW U ARE NOT READY FOR ELECTION.

I don't see reason(s) why PDP's problem should be INEC's problem

Read what you wrote again and convince yourself it made sense. So, u expect agents picked by poroye not to backstab Eyitayo ? Pls, let the people have the opportunity to pick their governor fairly. Let there be a level playing field for all.

Omoakinsuyi:
Olodo lawyer. If you are sure of winning, why asking for shift?

With this your submission, who is the biggest Olodo?

For the purpose of fairness, the election need to be postponed. But, this present Inec is remotely controlled by Mr Bubu. Unfortunately, he has hearing problem.

Only if you can reason well, you'd have seen that it is not in any way good to postpone the election.

Apc is just fraud alongside those in support of them! it is quite obvious even to birds that reside in Nigeria, knows that INEC's independence is flying into the wind with a greater speed than gravity itself.... God help innocent future leaders of this country like us..

Hmmm I feel for Jegede...but to me, he's a better option. Its just that....

If dem postponed Edo election a day to election why nt postponed ondo also dats why I hate APC wit dere liar's n sum idiot here will stil support dem wit go ahead but you also put your sef in eyitayo jegede shoe den you will no reason why dy wl postponed d election sheyb inec is aware also DAT appeal court just grant Jegede as PDP candidate I hate Nigeria inec under buahri regime n also judges under buahri regime.


Happy birthday MMM Nigeria

Hey boy, I can reason well. OK?
Did u say thesame thing when Edo State elction was postponed? What about those countless inconclusive elections we have scattered all over the country.
For ur info, Postponement of elections are not new in Nigeria.

Postponement is pretty unnecessary in such a circumstance.

It is very clean and clear Aketi is winning the ondo state gubernatorial election in landslide victory. D will of the masses will prevail. Mimiko can never adopted his puppet son jegede. They will be resisted on every side. So far no hope for pdp. Mimiko from ondo central jegede from ondo central. No absolutely no. It will be resisted. The will of God will prevail. Mimiko thinks he is smart. He and his party will lose the saturday election. There is nothing pdp can do about the saturday election.

dunkem21:
Is Jimoh Ibrahim not a PDP member?..

Those agents are APC members just like Sherrif

If those agent and sheriff are apc members as u said, then wike and fayose are both apc members too cos they brought him to pdp to become their chairman.

how can Inec postpone an election bcus one of political parties that will participate in the election lack internal democratic process within his party.... the problem jegede is having is not cause by inec, inec has a timetable fir this election which all parties involved knew for a very long time.. so one party having problems among its members can not force inec to postpone, pdp shld put their house in other...lobatan

Oga all these ones no follow road at all.

As far as the Law is concern, Poroye or no Poroye list is a PDP list of agent.

According to the law PDP have submitted agent list to INEC, INEC may or may not allow for any substitution of list from PDP.

INEC does not deal with individual candidates, only directly with the Party.

In INEC book, PDP was not at any point candidate(less)*wink* they only substitute candidates.

The only fairness here is to continue with the election as all the parties were given same level playing ground. Only that PDP decided to play bojuboju with themselves and it is allowed.

Let them Enjoy the impunity. Let them and other political parties learn from PDP experience.

Mention any election postponed because of an internal problem of any party.

Just a quick reminder during GEJ several election were postponed, under Buhari we have experienced it too.
Now tell us which one dem postpone because one party problem.

Election would have been conducted with or without PDP.

tolastikha:
I think in all sincerity of purpose and sense of fairness, it is only right, Godly and unbiased to postpone the election given that the earlier miscarriage of judgment was not caused by the good people of Ondo State but the federal government agent and therefore the burden from the failure should ordinary not be shifted to the poor citizens of that state.

how is it Godly

PDP was fighting within themselves why should the whole state suffer?

is it APC OR AD that installed ALLI MODU SHERRIF AS CHAIRMAN?

So the whole of the state should stand still just because you have problem in your party abi? Go and sit down joor.

You seem to forget that at the time INEC purported to make the initial substitution, the time stipulated for that had passed and Jimoh Ibrahim was in clear breach of INEC's procedural regulations. So INEC caused the problem.

Inec is part of the script. Those claiming it's all PDP issue are just displaying their sentiments which will only count if they have voters card and will vote. If not, it's all noise.

Inec didn't have strong reasons for removing jegede's name from the list of candidates.

Some of their lawyers were against it. But politics prevailed. Okon Abang had a faulty ruling, and jegede had giving Inec a notice of appeal.

Besides, there are other court rulings that Inec had ignored before Okon Abang's ruling.

Inec must be consistent with this their way of obeying ruling. Things like this go the other way too. We are watching them.

Jegede can have sympathy votes and win this thing.
