Assuming the judgment is not vacated by the appellate courts APC candidates will still not be able to contest. Lose- lose situation.

Since when did Ugochinyere from Cupp become an elections lawyer! Saraki’s former assistant who is flexing unnecessary.

Common sense will tell you guys God has a purpose in Bayelsa and only that purpose will win.

BAYELSA needs help!
Keep dreaming

Okay... In 1999, the election of Muazu was set aside by the tribunal and the supreme court because his deputy governor presented forged certs. A new election was conducted and Muazu participated alongside a new deputy governorship candidate and he won. What’s the difference between then and now?
See...
This has been flying around.
The Court has no right to nullify an election
The Supreme Court never dealt with the Bauchi issue in 1999.
It was the Tribunal and later Appeal Court upheld.

As at 1999, all Guber election issues ended at the Appeal Court.

The decision to take out Lyon was a Supreme Court decision, only they can interprete.

The Appeal Court decision isn't binding on the Supreme Court, instead its the other way around.

Thats his own side of the story. There are always 3 sides (interpretations) to every legal issue. The one that favours you, the one that dosent, and what the law actually says.

If/when the Apex court finally affirms the Tribunal's verdict, APC will know what to do. Diri is enjoying a stolen mandate, and it can be reclaimed, either via the main door, back door or window.

Don't mind those customary court customers called lawyers who depend on charge and bail cum defending wife who beats husband or husband who carries concubine. They will be claiming constitutional lawyers. APC will participate and win sikena

Very correct to the extent that APC cannot participate. However, APC can decide to support the candidate of another party who will then decamp to the party after election. The party may also explore the possibility of getting one of the candidates of the smaller parties to withdraw and then substitute with David Lyon.

The time of substitution of candidates has elapsed, they can only adopt a candidate of another party just like the way they did in Rivers state.

Why APC can’t take part in fresh poll if Bayelsa tribunal verdict is not upturned – Lawyer

I disagree .By today s judgement it means no election took place in Bayelsaa in 2019.. So a fresh election is different from rerun .APC is a stakeholder by implication.

Adamu Muazu’s case under reference was an ELECTION PETITION, a Post-Election matter; so the Tribunal had the jurisdiction under section 140(2) Electoral Act (Supra) to NULLIFY the election and order a rerun.
On the other hand, the BAYELSA State CASE (involving David Lyon’s Deputy) was a PRE-ELECTION case; the court had NO jurisdiction (in a pre-election matter) to nullify the entire election or to order a rerun. Only an ELECTION PETITION TRIBUNAL, properly constituted can nullify a general election or order a rerun in a general election. The regular court HAS NO such power.

Circumstances can still allow for substitution of candidate. APC was able to replace Audu with Yahaya Bello in Kogi even after the commencement of the actual election. Political tricks are still very much in abundance in Nigeria.

Those who are masturbating over a fresh election in Bayelsa State should do so with caution, so that they don't die of cardiac arrest because there won't be any election in Bayelsa State. Senator Douye Diri is Governor.

Hope you know that the Electoral Act used in 1999 have been amended severally.

After getting a red card during the match does a player become eligible to participate if the match is to be decided on penalties or go from Barcelona to PSG to play in the final and then return to Barcelona with the Champions league trophy? grin
