It's not like the case is extremely solid.

The judgment is based on the discretion of the judge but she chose to resolve the case again the defendant.

none of the names is all his affidavits and certificates corresponds to the one he filled in the inec form.

abeg shift. its providing of 'false' information aka forgery!

NGpatriot:



This is your own opinion, not facts, unless you are the courts and the police and you've done your investigation before arriving at forgery.

You people need to talk and post like sensible adults, not like little children.

the court agreed with me that he is a criminal. that is why they chased him out of government house. the idiot took away Lyon opportunity.

ChristianNorth:
Wole (father of technicalities) and Ikpeazu would have won this case against Ustadz Usman or at least get something better than this, though they are likely to lose at the trial and lower courts because of our electoral act.

In SC everything is possible because they have the power to set and set aside precedents. All you have to do argue intelligently and use technicalities. While Onnoghen Supreme Court relies mostly on the merit of the matter and natural justice to arrive at their judgement, Tanko's Supreme court is just unpredictable.

They don't know when to use technicalities, precedents and equity.

I have never seen a court so useless.

Anyway, Bayelsa judgement is apt and their finest in recent times.

Am telling you. Wole olanikpekun would have used this case to shine like he did in Ikpeazu vs ogah.

Don't have it....a barrister that works in the chambers of one of the SANs there, gave it to me.

You have serious issues and challenges with reading and comprehension.

Lostz:
he did not tamper with any document. he bought those certificates.

how can you get admitted to the university with a name different from the one in your waec? where was the change of name affidavit he did then to get admission? the man saw trouble coming so he rushed to get those affidavit in 2018

I know my brother, am just giving him the benefits of the doubt.

golddare:


A lesson for all those bearing different names to consult widely before regularisation of their names, if you know at one time or the other you are using someone else's certificate be ready to face the music or drop that qualification.

God bless you.....

I have nothing to gain from the Bayelsa judgment but that doesn't mean I cannot air my opinion

Stop airing ur opinion on air, it could be contagious

Truth to be told.He carried many names with fraudulent certificate.Haba what a cameleon code is he bearing.At different stages he was having difference.ADEGI abeg make I rest

this should be a lesson to those shouting school na scam.
imagine buying results with different names.
the idiot should be made to return all the money spent by Lyon

The are not naive...if same judgement went the other way round u and ur gullible pdp will insult the judiciary ....there is no morality in politics ....that's why people support their parties irrespective of whether they are wrong or right . Pdp has visited several embassy with protest about imo election ....it was same supreme court that delivered that judgement

Apc has looted, vandalised, destroyed so much properties ever since the judgement was delivered.
Sorry the just judgement.
Did u see how fast inec displayedthe updated result?
Can u show this forum the updatedresult from inec for imo election?

The judge found no other word than Chameleonically


How can someone be changing name like pad at every situation he finds himself.

When the minimum requirement is SSCE not even the certificate but evidence of attendance.

A retired major general last year in Kogi had to use his School Cert. When he was asked he simply said before people start another trouble again

Iamgrey5:
Actually this further proves the judgment was very political


There's no evidence the certificates were
forged


No one came forward that the other names belonged to them


Forgery is a serious criminal case that needs to be proved beyond reasonable doubt.

Bros, you really don't even need a lawyer to see the forgery here. Too many inconsistencies & the affidavit are all dated 2018!! This man was too careless

Inec had said they stick to their original Election results

They only obeyed SC because it's an order.

That deputy governor must have been foolish to have used about half a dozen names. The main foolishness is to think you can correct a certificate with an affidavit. He messed himself up badly and I agree with that part of the judgement.

However, the court should have used an injunction to stop the deputy from being on the ticket. This is led to the misplacement of justice. Misplacement of justice such that the entire purpose of an election or democracy and fairness was defeated with the judgment.

Meanwhile, the joint ticket that became the medium of disqualifying the Governor was denied to James Faleke during the Kogi lacuna. That means, the supreme court has set 2 different precedence on the same issue.

The problem we have in this country is that we have people in positions of power who are not intelligent. The requirement for office is a minimum school leaving certificate. He didnt have to tender all these certificates, all he had to do was tender one that complied with the minimum requirement and beared his proper name...end of story.

This is what Ogun state governor did, he knew he didnt have NYSC so he didnt tender his degree and just tendered his WASC. In this case all Degi had to do was tender his degree which bears the name he wants to use and forget the WASC. WASC is not required if you have a higher qualification.

There is nothing in the constitution that says you have to tender all your certificates. You have the choice of which certificate to tender as your qualification to contest, so long as what you tender meets the requirement.

You can only be judged on what you tender!!! Note the judgement did not say he did not meet the requirement to contest, it said he presented forged documents.

Stupidity of the highest order and IMHO shows the calibre of leadership he would have brought to Bayelsa state!!!

Long and short......He will go down in history as a man who forged/presented a document that was never required and thereby disqualified himself.

Bro once u tender a B.sc, u must tender d lower degree that gave u the higher degree.
Dont mislead this forum

If you look at the judgement, it states that the election was held on November 16 2020. Does this mean that they don't have proof readers in the Supreme Court ? And does this amateurish error mean APC have grounds to challenge the judgement ?

Lawyers in the house, what sayeth thee ?

No grounds.....
I think they are using this case to kill Imo.

Because the pdp is doing same, they want to.
They are also citing the case of Adamu Mu'azu in 1999...holds no waters.

I will try to get more facts yet protect the individual. If you what I mean.

You don't know anything about how court operate. They are not father Xmas that will give you what u didn't ask for. The two cases are different . In imo apc result from a certain unit was excluded fraudulently ...pdp claimed the said result from those units where forged. The apex court now ask them to present evidence to prove that a result of a unit signed by Inec officials deployed to those units where fraud...but they had no answer to that question . The supreme court asked apc candidate to present the result of those units and they gladly presented it and Inec didn't deny it...The question a man with conscience should ask is ....why was those result excluded and for what reason? If you cannot answer this question then keep quiet and Bury your face in shame for aiding and abating fraud. The question about supreme court not counting the result to ascertain what each party got is irrelevant cos pdp never believed in the existence of that result...They can't benefit from their misfortune...Elementary school law student knows about it.

The judgment is based on the discretion of the judge but she chose to resolve the case again the defendant.

On evidence, they reasoned that someone vying for such a high office should be more consistent and trustworthy. Instead of trying to use various affidavits and unknown/unregistered notary public to justify names on certificates he's about to use at various times. Such discrepancies do not go well with the spirit of the law. He could easily have used a Deed Poll to change his names. That's more authentic as he can then use it to inform civil registry.

Fact is our system is not organised enough. Over 75% of people over 50 are probably guilty of incessant change of name, age declaration and such. If you examined older civil servants carefully, hardly anyone will go Scot free. Too much age reduction to stay longer in office.

Had PDP/Diri just argued that the certificates were not his, they might have lost. But the discrepancies were overwhelming.

vicdom:
I hope and wish all these APC apologists (AKA zombies) would sit down and read a sound and aptly delivered judgement of the learned judges of the SC. But they won't simply because they are zombies, dimwitted, illiterates, simpletons, riffraffs and ultimately nitwits to discern a well structured and delivered judgement of the Apex court. Useless mofos. Spits###

some say na jan-ja-wee-d party, but I don't know what it's means

MelesZenawi:


The whole Judgement was sound and clear.

One man five names

Fslc new name
waec new name
first degree new name
masters new name
Ventured into politics with a new name also.


What nonsense
