The Federal College of Education Pankshin in Plateau state which also offers degree programme is on indefinite strike.

NB: Am not a student there but I identify with their plight.

SeverusSnape:
Lord knows I dislike this dullardic Administration and it's incompetent and corrupt ministers, But I refuse to believe everything from this propaganda news outlet called Sahara reporters.

Dambazau is a corrupt guy, yes, We all know all Buhari ministers are corrupt saints. But where is the evidence for this allegation?

Something else just came to my mind, Sowore the owner of Sahara reporters is a Tinubu boy, and we all know that Tinubu is not happy with the way Buhari is appointing his kinsmen to all the positions.
The ministry of interior headed by Dambazau has been Northernized, almost all the recently recruited personnels are core northerners; Tinubu is not happy about that. Now he's using his boy Sowore to get back at Dambazau. See screenshot below to confirm the fact that Sowore is Tinubu's boy.
like I said earlier, I'm not holding brief for Dambazau; Because, he like every other politician is corrupt, But Sahara reporters can't be trusted

My brother, this Sahara reporters will give yu details and bank tellers. Their job is bin made easier by civil servants within the system who feel cheated and therefore exposes their thieving bosses.

It further complicates issues for her because that report refused to clear her name. The US didn't say it doesn't exist but that they are not making it public. Shikenan

AntiWailer:
Apparently u can not read.

You are one of the people that long text is a problem for.

Dnt compare impeachment of Senate President to that of President.

Impeachment of Senate President will not require a lot of other things.

So go and read the constitution carefully and check the reality on ground.


In case this is still too long for you to read.

SUMMARY
2/3 of Senate alone can not impeach the President by just voting unlike Senate PRESIDENT that once the number is complete they can remove him right away.

Yu apparently have a problem from childhood about ur manners. Yu should just go straight and address issues without getting personal and abusive.

After the impeachment panel seats and hands over the report to the Senate, yu don't know that a vote will be taken on the matter by the Senate? I assure yu that an impeachment move alone will stagnate this government for years. Not to even talk about an impeachment panel been setup.

Now talking about going to read the Constitution, I was evolved in amendment of that 2011 constitution yu are copying and pasting.

My candid opinion is that yu allow others roll with their own opinion too just like yu have urs.

midolian:
I know kids like you will rush to comment on threads like this even when you have not the slightest idea what it takes to impeach the president. You think what it takes ends with the jokers you call Senators?...Now read and be informed!

Its not cheese afterall. The numbers and all. It will be easier to satisfy oliver twist than impeach Buhari.

I am sure even your SP and his corrupt goons don't know what it really takes. You are on every thread insulting the president. I think you have "over-done" this and its hightime you stopped. My brotherly advice for u.

If it's not possible to impeach a president, it will not appear and be written in that constitution yu copied and pasted here?

I wonder the reasoning of some people. Someone merely said his mind and yu are here ranting and abusing him. Someone in Nigeria can no longer have an opinion that is different from that of zombies and they are on the person's neck with stabs.

Its within the powers of the Senate to impeach a president for reasons which they can state.

Yu will be surprised that an impeachment vote will get the required number of 2/3 because that's the same number required to also remove the Senate president and if those against the Senate president had that number, they would have impeached Saraki loooooong time ago.

Let me remind yu that ur Senator Ndume is presently facing trial connected to Boko Haram terrorism and that doesn't bother people like yu.

My 4 years old son can differentiate between "reach" and "rich". I am so sorry that the money for your education was shared between GEJ, Dasuki, Olisah Metu, FFK, Fayose, Olu Falae, Jim Nwobodo, imPatience Mama Piss, Attairu Bafarawa, Alex Badeh and the puff-puff cheeked Ngozi Okonjo-Iwealla the world bank voodoo economist.

Buratai too shared from it

Udmaster:
A State High court in Osisioma Can NOT Stop the order of a Federal High Court,
if Ikpeazu stay of execution appeal is strike out by the Federal High Court, The Nothing Can Stop Ogah from being sworn in.

This order doesn't stop that of the Federal High Court but because it's the requirement of law that only a state judge can swear in a governor, no judge of Abia state will swear in the usurper on the basis of this ruling.

A state High Court and the Federal High Court are courts of concurrent jurisdiction. Same level.

Reckless spending. Plateau state acquired 2016 Toyota Camrys for honorable members at N11million per unit for the 24 members. As at today less than a year thereafter, almost all the members had sold theirs because of the cost of maintenance.

dayowunmi:
This man was one of the 5 PDP governors that decanted to form the APC, am still waiting for PDP members to term his trial as a vendetta or witch hunt too

His trial started during GEJ's time. He was impeached at that time & he fled, he was declared wanted & only came back immediately after Buhari's swearing in and his first point of call was Aso Rock. That's my state & I keep tab of all info on Nyako.

zeemore:
Misleading headline. I didnt see where EFCC withdrew the charges.

Yu must not see it. If an accused is not in court to take his plea, yu cannot continue in his absence or it will be an exercise in futility to do so.

It's always paid ONLY when the accused abscond and becomes a fugitive.

This man called Senator Enang seems not to appreciate issues at all.

How can he say he apologized in his personal capacity while he conveys a meeting in his official capacity?

Is he also saying what that Oblo of a thing said?

It's grossly disheartening to see all the flops by INEC.

And to think that the Head of INEC Legal Unit is a SAN.

SMH

NgeneUkwenu:
What they gave INEC was notice of appeal and not stay of execution order which can only be given by the court...Ikpeazu is a drowning man....let him publish the order and shame INEC...

Did INEC initially agreed that any notice of appeal was serves on it?
That should tell yu the antics of INEC.

whirlwind7:
And what makes you think I don't?

because yu are asking for advice here.

SSA-Am not answerable to Senate.

PMB-Dont mind him pls. Even me am answerable to Senate.

NASS-Oya sack the SSA

The drama Don start. Wait and see how the Senate will refuse to approve all executive bills and memos and especially the list of ambassadors.

The AGF also set a bad precedent now. Meanwhile the president should henceforth confirm his own ministers and the new IGP.

The ego-filled AGF should know that the Senate committees have oversight functions provided by law over the ministries and parastatals. A polite answer by the AGF that because the matter is in court and subjudice, he cannot comment on it would have been better. This particular approach is childish and unfortunate coming from a learned person.

dotcomnamename:
Some of you just been emotional over nothing..the law doesn't work on emotions..sorry!! Some wailers brain is too limp to understand that it is abuse of state institutions by the Executive in this case to reach selfish objectives. Wailers dont understand the genesis of this issue. Some senators actually raised alarm, they wrote a petition to the police and even approach a court and the judge said IN HIS OPINION, whatever happened there is their internal problems that is what Saraki and his group are quoting today.

The police after their investigations handed over the case file to the attorney general of the country to ascertain if a crime was committed, the attorney general now said a crime was committed and he decided to drag them to court. Saraki and his group now realised there are many problems facing the nation that deserves attention. The question you guys have failed to answer is, was the 2015 senate rules forged?

So forgery is an internal matter by elected representatives of the people who are expected to leave above board? Examine themselves . All your selfish comments are nothing but the manifestations of corruption , illegality, impunity, oiled by stolen funds fighting back. It unbelievable that any sane person will support forgery. This is a criminal offense if proven. It's unfortunately that's why this country will remain backward . Nobody is above the law and the level of desperation for position and power shown by Saraki and Ekweremadu is enough to for all reasonable men to check mate them because they are not doing it for the people but for selfish interest.

The senate standing rule section 110 was very clear and as a result put forward five provisions to be met if the senate standing rule is to be amended yet there was an amendment without due consideration to the said provisions. And we now have dishonourable men and women parading themselves as honourables , instituting shame and embarrassment to the nation even as far as the US. What is bad is bad irrespective of who committed it and when and where.

Forgery is an offense. Saraki and Ekweremadu have a case to answer. The argument that Ekweremadu was not invited by police does not mean that there was no forgery. The argument that the govt is gunning for Saraki does not prove there was no forgery. The senate standing rule section 110 was not met before the new amendment. This is a clear cut case of forgery and efforts should be made immediately to punish the culprits. Nobody is above the law. This should be a teaching moment for all the senators.

When yu read, don't just refer to what yu choose to understand. Read the post holistically.

The amendment according to the Deputy clerk (now Clerk) of the National Assembly was done during the 7th Assembly. He didn't say who can amend the rules whether by law or practice.

It is also not in contention that several versions of the Senate Rules referred to including the 2011 rules were amended by practice and procedure.

Senator Lawan who lost to Saraki submitted himself and contested for the President of the Senate under the same 2015 rules he is now alleging to be forged. Remember that as at the time of the election or subsequently before then, he didn't raise alarm so that the 2011 rules should be used but rather joined and cast home to a defeat.

Again, the witnesses who volunteered information to the police didn't mentioned the name of Saraki and or Ekweremadu. I don't know at what time they became suspects that as at that time of the election, they were candidates to the election and not the electoral college conducting the election. It's akin to INEC conducting an election and candidates to the election arrested because INEC used a different rule.

The present posture adopted by the AGF Malami and by implication the FGN is an erosion of the doctrine of separation of powers. The incursion and excursion of the learned AGF is rather unfortunate.

It's clearly and as a matter of fact correct that the AGF will never dare to charge the Senate president and his deputy without the approval of the presidency. Instead of finding a way out of the precarious position we find ourselves in, the FGN is instead springing up sensational stories and confusion in the system to divert the attention of hungry Nigerians and that of a bleeding nation to the issue at stake of turning the economy as promised.

Ignore anyone telling yu that yu are required to be served 6 months quit notice. The Supreme Court in the locus classicus case popularly known as Paper Sack stated that if ur tenancy expires today, yu are automatically moved from the position of a statutory tenant protected by law to a tenant-at-will meaning ur stay on the property is subject to ur landlord's will.

Yu are protected and required to be served with a 6 months notice ONLY when ur tenancy is still running before its expiration.

I advised that yu call that number on the letterhead and talk to the lawyer instead. He can talk to the landlord. I also suggest yu go to the lawyer with the complete rent and he will issue yu with his own receipt.

If the matter gets to court, the quit notice can be rejected in evidence because it was prepared by a lawyer (looking at the letterhead). In the recent case of Sarkin Yaki, the Supreme Court stated that all processes prepared by lawyers MUST have a seal of such lawyer. The process yu displayed doesn't have a seal and therefore incompetent.

This notice served on yu is not the only process to be served. 7 days after the quit notice, yu will be served with a document called 'Notice of Owner's Intention to Apply to Recover Possession' which will take 7 days too and thereafter yu will be served with the Writ with a date to appear in court. That's not all. Ur landlord must come and testify and bring witnesses if any and thereafter yu will be given a date to also defend the action. Generally and all things being equal, it will take about 3 months or more to complete this but ur stay after ur notice expired is not free as ur rent will be computed and yu pay for the months yu stayed.

No matter what the rent agreement stated, the Landlord and Tenancy Law provides what are the terms of a tenancy. Its not just anyhow. Even a squatter is entitled to the same notices.

Thats my advice and observations. Am a practising lawyer but based in Jos so I can't help yu from afar.
