ORIENTATION101: obi doesn't have locus standing to challenge APC nomination of shettima cos obi didnt participate in the APC primary. What obi can challenge is the credentials APC candidates submitted to inec.
as a candidate obi or his party has the locus standing to challenge the qualification of Tinubu at an election petition tribunal and the issue of nomination falls under qualification, its a settled law
Isobug: Court Cases are different. If one failed with a particular prayer another person may succeed with the same prayer in the same court. It's not yet time for jubilation. Meanwhile, Court proceedings are all about evidence. The judges claimed Atiku has no legal basis to institute the case. If your lawyers Provide enough evidence the case is yours nomatter the locus
obi had approached the court challenging the qualification of Tinubu to contest listing this as one of the grounds of non qualification, in election petition on the issue of qualification any candidate or the party that contested in an election is vested with the locus So obi may succeed where atiku failed
omonnakoda: Regardless of whether it is under 10 years it is a preelection matter th t should have been raised before the election This allegation is for more than dishonesty Does 10 years apply to conviction for murder rf treason?Is An interesting argument would be whether any of the above applies to sentences in courts outside Nigeria
qualification is both pre and post election mater, if you are unable to raise it pre election, you can do so at the election petition tribunal
Quest7777: Buhari has taken Nigeria 50years back with the failed New Naira policy.
not only currency Everything he did set the country backwards unfortunately he didn't see himself as a failure Who will not be leaving any legacy behind when he Is gone
chivic: Well it does have the special status off being the Federal Capital Territory.I don't like that rule at all.I want to belief that after the case it will be reviewed.The law is not without Lacuna that's why it's subject to review .
The law was reviewed because of the 12 2/3 of 19 fiasco between chief obafemi awolowo and alhaji sheu Shagari where the federal capital was interpreted to be a state in the calculations because it was not specified how it should be treated but now it has been specified as stand alone as far as presidential election is concerned Adiminstatvely it should be accorded the status of a state, every thing has been specified by the constitution you can't deviate from prescriptions of the constitution
- You can't get your own Cash - You can't make transfer in Peace - You can't Withdraw - You can't do nothing....
Where do we go from here?
That is why I am surprised about the election results, how can a people going through maximum punishment from a political party return such a party to power ,I don't get it. There is no logic to ot
Parachoko: The drug case issue would be thrown out by the Tribunal and Court
Obi and his lawyers should get serious with evidence his votes was truly giving to Asiwaju
so if an anini the dreaded armed robber were to contest an election, you will tell us to forget his character and just check the votes to confirm he actually won
Fahdiga: Tinubu is a very big threat to the existence of Nigeria as a country.
everything about Tinubu is not straightforward, and you expect him to achieve power in a straightforward way ,Nigeria is now officially a one party state,even those in power In opposition hold their allegiance to Tinubu wike candidate, seyi makinde of oyo are in Tinubu camp
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1DwajYk07Vg From the outburst of Chinedu's mother, Mrs Rhodes I can say that the Yorubas dodge a bullet by Disgracing and disowning the LP's candidate Chinedu. Mother of the incoming governor . Lol. If this Chinedu Gbadebo kind had won, the mother would have executed purely anti Yoruba Agenda and turn Yoruba to strangers in their land.
A big Congratulations to the Lagosians and the Yoruba in general.
what did she say wrong here now ,all she said is in the public domain, public knowledge By the time you guys set the country on fire by your tribal sentiments, I hope the big men you are worshiping we take you along in their private jets when escaping
please continue you are doing a great job,those criticising you are apc sympathiser who are not comfortable with the results, if it had favoured them they would have been hailing you Your presentation was also superb Great job
Segunbabba: My candid advise to Hausas and Igbos living in Lagos state. Please, for the sake of peace stay indoors, don't come out to vote, allow Yoruba to choose whom they want to govern them If you come out anything can happen to you and no one will come to your rescue. Hausa and Igbo people living in Lagos should stay at home to avoid had i known
Because when the yorubas choose a disaster its only the yorubas that will feel it abi,this your fear mongering can work in 2015 not now again, try something else parading oro that will affect only non yorubas on election day
tyboy: GRV dey feel like governor for em mind 😄, I just dey laugh the boy you don't know what is coming. , The gap on Saturday wey sanwo olu go give am no go small
That's in the past when you people can write results, that's was why anybody that wins apc tickets in those days felt they ve won,the difficult part was getting the ticket,but that will not happen this Saturday you must earn your vote even if sanwolu wins ,you can't have 40 over 40a Assembly as it use to be,that will be an improvement
Faber: Nawa o, INEC is wasting their time, they want to use delay tactics, even the tribunal are aware of INEC's delay tactics
it doesn't matter, ones they file 21 days after the announcement of the results, they are out of time ,their petitions are liable to be thrown out,that is technicalities, it is part of the game The judges hands will be tied
It is not true that Asiwaju at center andsanwo in lagos will help lagos its all lies They told us the same thing in 2015 ,just remove Jonathan and PDP in center and replace with apc to complement the apc at the state in Lagos, it was done yet shi shi, we no see for lagos ,common to ratify the inchoate lcda to become real local government that will attract funding they couldn't do They should stop lying to us as if we no get brain
olisaEze: Even if the election tribunal by some miracle all give their lives to Christ and return the stolen mandate, what makes Dino think they’d return it to the PDP and not LP??
LibertyRep: But why is Jandor and Funke off the radar?
That is what pride does to people after winning the ticket he alienated almost all the who is who in pdp thinking he is the major opposite in Lagos and that's an achievement, he is also a gulliton who has insatiable appetite for money only him wants to corner everything, was even selling assembly tickets through his cronies All these put together made the people desert him and the arrival of GRV put the final nail on his coffin, he provided a viable option to a selfish and arrogant guy
b0rn2fuck: Even if Tinubu rode to victory without rigging, this legal action will still give him sleepless night but since the election was not pure, everyone involved won't have rest of mind because it's being watch internationally
Nigerians should stop being stupid and call the bluff of Emefiele and his boss buhari by enforcing the law as prescribed by the supreme court ,by Continuing to use the old naira among themselves and ignore the cbn with time the cbn will agree with them or when they leave the new government will do the right thing To ease things for now the people should continue to accept and spend the naira forget Emefiele for now the law is on your side
The election cannot be upturned with the way the supreme court is presently constituted,everything has been carefully planned by buhari, reason he said go to court, because the supreme court have never disappointed him,worst case they use technicalities ,and wole olanipekun is there, the professor of technicalities to help the supreme court do that I wonder seeing all the things buhari has done in Nigeria,to Nigerians, how somebody will come out and say buhari the tagiya king has a speck of integrity, but things happen
PrinceOfLagos: Some Nigerians brought the affliction upon themselves
The same Nigerians also voted Tinubu who might even be worse than Buhari
if Tinubu is eventually sworn in apart form poor performance there will be no free and fair election again in Nigeria because the man does not believe in free and fair election meaning if the people got feedup there will be no mean to effect change So Nigerians are in for a long ride
Anybody that survived this evil regime of buhari should do thanksgiving, there is no affliction the evil man did not visit on Nigerian,as if Nigerian committed unpardonable sin by electing the sadistic failure
Larryndelaw: But PDP and Labour party a including arise TV are celebrating it that Emefiele should not shift ground because they are targeting TINUBU, So who is at Loss now
Because they did not understand that buhari is the king of tagiya
But it's very funny that people were expecting buhari a certified failure, who have failed in everything to conduct a successful free and fair election. Imposicant
