Corrupt ppl. If Peter is not given the ticket by PDP, the party will die naturally

The Court of Appeal sitting in Abuja, on Wednesday, vacated the judgement of the Federal High Court in Umuahia, Abia State, which voided the provision of Section 84(12) of the Electoral Act, 2022.

The appellate court, in a unanimous decision by a three-man panel of Justices led by Justice Hamma Akawu Barka, held that the high court, acted without jurisdiction.

It held that the Plaintiff, Mr. Nduka Edede, lacked the locus standi to institute the action.

According to the appellate court, Edede, failed to establish any cause of action that warranted him to approach the court on the issue, noting that the plaintiff was unable to prove how he was directly affected by that section of the newly amended Electoral Act.

Consequently, it struck out the suit marked: FHC/UM/CS/26/2022, which Edede filed before the Umuahia court.

Nonetheless, the appellate court, while determining the appeal on the merit, held that the said provision of the electoral law was unconstitutional because it is in breach of Section 42 (1)(a) of the 1999 Constitution, as amended, stressing that the section denied a class of Nigerian citizens their right to participate in election.

The judgment followed an appeal marked: CA/OW/87/2022, which was filed by the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP.

Specifically, section 84(12) of the Electoral Act, 2022, made it mandatory that political office holders must firstly resign from office, before they could vie for any elective position.

It reads: “No political appointee at any level shall be a voting delegate or be voted for at the convention or congress of any political party for the purpose of the nomination of candidates for any election.”

I hope that clears your doubts

mach7:
Please explain. Honestly, the judgement seems confusing and different sources are interpreting it in different ways.

Appeal court can not give them "succor" in vacuum

mach7:
I thought the Appeal Court Judgement gave the Political appointees succour?

That's the new electoral law
They all should comply to avert legal battles after possibly winning the election

The only genuine Nigerian that can repair the economy but ethnic demons, religious fanatics and fantastically corrupt elites wouldn't allow him to repair Nigeria and remove the curse on Nigeria

This is the naked bitter truth that will save Nigeria from divine curse and imminent disintegration. Natural law is already working against Nigeria nation because of extreme marginalization, injustice and evil against South East, hence since 1970 after much blood of innocent children from East were spilled, stomach of pregnant women ripped open because of what they knew nothing about, Nigeria has remained under curse which is multiplying daily.

For those who have spiritual eyes to understand what I am saying, the worst against Nigeria is about to come if South East is denied their rights in 2023.

IF they have ears to hear, let them hear

There's no doubt about it

And some ediots want to bring in the man that brought this disaster.

Nigerians seem cursed with loss of memory.

The worst is yet to come if APC wins 2023 elections

Yes, the hour is near.

Matthew 24:42,44
[42]Watch therefore [give strict attention, be cautious and active], for you do not know in what kind of a day [whether a near or remote one] your Lord is coming.
[44]You also must be ready therefore, for the Son of Man is coming at an hour when you do not expect Him.

OkEvery armed robber in Igbo land is now a freedom f!ghter.

He will enforce sit at home

Then he will rob and kidnap

The next day, he will preach Biafra at the market square

Once he identifies Onyendu as his personal lord and saviour, all his sins are washed away.

All the armed robbers and kidnappers in Igbo land now fly the flag.

They will decimate the police in the name of biafra

Then they will dispossess other Biafrans

Snatch their cars. Sometimes snatch their lives.

That's where we are.

When the army catches them , they will become victimised Biafran youths arbitrarily arrested by a high handed military intent on crushing a legitimate quest for self determination.

Ohaneze will issue a statement

But before they are picked up , they will continue to masquerade as freedom fighters and ransack the land.

That's where we are.

In a hard place.

Putin has become the new Hitler. His Nazi invaders keep paying the price for his indiscretion and stupidity

New ponzi in town. Buy form for one hundred million naira and in less than a month, step down for someone and receive your money back.... In double.

APC is the definition of 4. 1.9.

Vote any person from them and another eight excruciating years of suffering, economic woes and security breakdown are guaranteed

Date. It cures impotency in men

And some m0rons are planning to return APC.

I don't know what's wrong with Nigerians and their memories. Tinubu will "continue where Baba stops"

Your zone has been declared no go area by your home grown Terrorists. And you all are clapping for them. No electoral value so VP slot is the only realistic option except the fellow wants to waste his money for nothing

That's demonic

This is now looking like a well planned arson by those who do not know alternative ways to stop the illegal refinery in the state

Good to hear that. Umahi should refrain from being a modern Pharoah in Ebonyi state

Right, I support them. In fact, that would place the Igbos to qualify for what the UN calls oppressed people of the world which equally attracts the attention of the world body to separate them from Nigeria who clearly don't want them.

That would equally make Nnamdi Kanu a hero and without further persuasion, all Igbos worldwide will key in to the struggle by IPOB.

The only problem why we are distancing ourselves from IPOB is their new unfortunate turn to violence and killing fellow Igbos. Because no relatives of those slain Igbo policemen, politicians, traders, businessmen and women will ever support such evil way of "struggle".

Let IPOB jettison the Ambazonia atrocious ways and see everyone support them just like before.

Nigeria is a symbol of oppression

Let him try nonsense and see his country go into flames by radioactive heat from NATO countries.

Ranting like North Korea short man wouldn't help his dilemma in Ukraine

Godly, righteous, decent and resourceful wife.

IF you see her, dm me immediately, please

Vanity upon vanity, all is vanity. I wish the living would learn lessons.

It's better to go to the house of mourning than to party. When you look at the dead, it reminds you that ONE DAY, you will be the next.

Ecclesiastes 7:2,4
[2]It is better to go to the house of mourning than to go to the house of feasting, for that is the end of all men; and the living will lay it to heart.
[4]The heart of the wise is in the house of mourning, but the heart of fools is in the house of mirth and sensual joy.

Hebrews 9:27
[27]And just as it is appointed for [all] men once to die, and after that the [certain] judgment,

Rest in perfect peace

Look no further, your wife. Daughters are replica of their mothers most often. Then change her school and possibly also, the house help.

Don't forget to stop the "devil's box" tv

How is this a news?

Deception. Let all Africa sign too. All we know is that no ancestors or those who helped to bring this current disaster will ever rule Nigeria again. One wishes PDP brings Peter Obi as their flag bearer.

It's obvious, Nigerians have problems with memory. How often we forget our common oppressors who are only after their selfish egocentric ambition while Nigeria is sinking to abyss daily. Naira is now worthless and life has no value anymore all because some people's hatred for certain region(East) is incurable.

I can't believe Nigerians ain't tired yet of suffering. "Lazy youths" indeed

The only problem I see is the possibility of your husband conducting DNA test on his kids after some years.

I don't trust any unbeliever lady. I only trust genuinely born again Christian sisters who hate sin, indecent dressing, hate the devil and his agents.

But if you have repented and practice holiness and holy distancing from opposite sex, you are good to go. No harm in the flat. Just device means of cooking elsewhere outside the shared kitchen

It's not enough reason to divorce him. She is apparently the type of woman that discourage some of us advanced Bachelors from marrying.

I hate this type of scandal. She is an unbeliever and needs to accept Jesus into her life ASAP and run back to her husband.

She could be right in what she suggested and I buy the idea but she is probably under some influence, just looking for little excuse to elope with another lover.. Cheater symptoms

Even in today's Sunday services throughout Igboland, curses are laid and pronounced against ESN and all who clapped, supported, support, defend their cannibalism, butchering, kidnapping, snatching cars, robbery and burning down Igboland.

Their generation shall be under incurable disease. They shall be killed by the evil they support one day.

Their lives must be cut short like that of Igbo policemen, politicians, traders, Keke drivers, traditional leaders, drivers and Igbo citizens whom ESN burnt, kidnapped, butchered, camnibalized and dumped in their pits containing corpses in various bushes.

All who defend evil shall accidentally be visited by the evil he admires or support. Amen in all churches both penticostals and orthodox churches

Very good. Thou shalt not suffer a witch to live

Sorry for the ignorant cop

I don't have Benz yet, only Toyota Corolla. (new)

2nd, godly resourceful and virtuous ladies are scarce to find. I don't want a liability or Oloshos.

Genuine born again Christian sisters are very few. The rest are naked "sisters"

Yes, Nnamdi Kanu's case is a cash cow. That case can never end as long as "umuchineke" are contributing in dollars to "free" "onyendu" �
Congratulations to the man. Let him avoid the east, that area is hot. Stay put in Abuja.

Even billionaires in south east are running away from "umuchineke" unknown gunmen
