GeneralPula:
Most of them didn’t even know Shettima has no double nominations..

Media propaganda did more harm to these folks ehh..

tesppidd:
You mean that time they gave room for meddlesome interlopers?

Can you show me the clause?

Mjshexy:
But all parties are expected to work under the same electoral law, therefore if an electoral malpractice was committed by APC and the party is trying to cover it up but another party presents it before the SC (who is supposed to be unbiased), why is the SC turning deaf ears & blind eyes to the glaring evidences presented before her and behaving as a stooge of APC

tesppidd:
The analogy shouldn't be that serious.

A better analogy would be,

"If a man cheats on his wife, another man in another family has no right to carry the matter to the village chief priest"

😁


I do understand the position of the Supreme Court.


But in Uche Nwosu's case, it wasn't any of the two parties he contested with, that took him to court.

So what's the double standard by the SP?

inforesource:
After reading through the judgement I came to the conclusion that the Supreme Court actually agreed that the case brought before her was a valid case, however, since the PDP has no locus standi in the case, that is to say they do not have the right to bring up the case to the court since the case is APC's. The case was dismissed.

OK, so for me, the lesson in this case is that, if, assuming, a husband kills his wife and the family of the wife refuses to take the case to court, it means that outsider can not take the case to court to seek justice. Is this the precedence the Supreme Court is setting?

I really need a little schooling here. Maybe I should go back and study the electoral laws.

Feintline:
Swearing in tinubu is Unconstitutional .
Swearing in tinubu is destroying democracy in Nigeria.
Our nation democracy is on the verge of being destroyed and those who are supposed to stand against it are turning a blind eye.

It is very difficult to build but easy to destroyed. Tinubu alongside the judiciary are at verge of destroying Nigeria's hard fought democracy

chidiokay:
When you understand the Legal frame work and most importantly "Locust standi" ..

You already know the outcome

Racoon:
He have always been a disappointment as a confirmed drug baron criminal. Abi is Tinubu not the person who foisted a catastrophe of Buhari kind twice because of his egocentric ambition?

BeardedmeatR:
Why the conferment when if he becomes president in a few days, he'd naturally get the title?

Is there something the most evil political party APC is not telling us?

PROPEACE:
Guy are you serious about the OPM talk? The attitude of SS people is strange.

BennyDGreat:
Those communities will remain poor if they continue to be hostile to investors....it's like shooting one's self in the foot. It doesn't make sense

Penguin2:
Wahala wahala wahala!

This case is not looking good for Tinubu and APC.

I sense danger ⛔️

Paretomaster1:
Very sad, same issue we face in d company I work with.

Touts in PH, all SE states, and Delta waylaying vehicles, beat-up drivers in the name of task force demanding hundreds of thousands of imaginary charges.

Anambra is the worse..

DaTruths:
So which party does the electoral act has the jurisdiction over?

Or was the law made only for a particular party?

Who are to observe the law?

DMerciful:
What is the likelihood that someone from the same political party would take another member to court over double nomination? It will be judged as internal party affair so in essence we're saying this particular law is handicapped?

Anyways...its on Friday so lets see what the Supreme Court would say

DMerciful:
So if the party or no member of the party brings it up then the law can stay broken?

Nwaetche:
What do you know about Rivers State?

I keep saying that any Industrialist can locate his industry in anywhere he feels he can make profit with ease. However our government is not being sincere to the peculiar problems of the Niger Delta.

Have you ever pondered what the North or even the South West would say if a Gold Refinery or base metal refinery is sited in Port Harcourt, Yenegoa, Warri or Benin instead of the North West where these metals are mined.

DMerciful:
They're not the same. You can submit names 30 days before election and submit an uodated lists besides there is no punishment prescribed for submitting late. The intent is for INEC to monitor the primaries in the event that direct primary mode is adopted.

Shettima is double nomination, there's punishment for it

DaTruths:
The Electoral Law supercedes the APC's domestic laws.
Every party may have their own law and modus operandi, but the electoral Law reigns supreme.

You are just making conjectures.

If APC violates the electoral Law, who do you expect to sue them? Most likely the opposition

Again, if a Nigerian village law doesn't punish Rapists, and someone rapes a lady in that village, then you decide to sue the rapist.

So because you are not from the village, that means, only the villagers reserves the legal right to sue the rapist?

Lastly, because the village law doesn't punish Rapists, it should be uphold over the Nigerian law that punishes Rapists?
If you don't understand this illustration in respect to the electoral Law, then I will leave you to your believe.

Icrave4u:
And you are igbo , may be not the real one what a stupid comment!

fergie001:
What were you expecting before?

DMerciful:
So APC as a party can gang up and break the law?

DaTruths:
Section 35 of The Electoral law.

35. Where a candidate knowingly allows himself to be nominated by
more than one political party or in more than one constituency, his nomination
shall be void.

If shettima didn't violate the Nominations from two different parties, how about the bolded?

Secondly, The electoral Law is prevalent across all political parties.

By saying PDP can't sue APC for violating the electoral Law, is equivalent to saying your Neighbor can't sue you for physically abusing your kid because he's not a member of your household.

When you violates the law, anybody can sue you, ask a any legal practitioner around you.

fergie001:
Do wetin?
Hahahaha..... 10th Assembly na cash app. When you know the kind of Govs and the way they have bamboozled through the Senate you will understand!

Nobody dey do anything!
