If it's some couples, divorce will be demanded after three years of marriage without any baby. It pays to be patient.

I think the communities under herdsmen attacks need a parrot like this. What do you think?

A northerner will take over as usual. I can bet my left testicle on this

Just my thought. Every sensitive position is to the northerners while the south follow like zombies.

If inec confirms it then they would have to explain why the manual was different. Politics aside, when you wrote jamb, if you had seen your scores as 300 on the jamb website and got a result slip with total scores of 180, won't you query jamb if jamb still sends that same 180 scores result sheet to your school?

Don't mind them. They are trying to cover their opened yanch.

Until the Electoral Act (Amendment) Bill is passed into law any election result that is electronically transmitted by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) is illegal, a cross section of Nigerian lawyers has said.
In their contributions to the raging controversy over INEC’s purported transmission of the results of the 2019 presidential election, the lawyers told LEADERSHIP Weekend that it amounts to illegality for the commission or its officers to have transmitted the said results when the Electoral Act (Amendment) Bill, 2018, has not been signed into law.

They argued that Section 52 (2) of the operating Electoral Act 2010 prohibits the use of electronic voting machine in Nigeria, including the transmission of the results electronically.
In the same vein, the legal luminaries said that Section 65 of the same Electoral Act 2010 stipulates that election results shall be transmitted manually by INEC presiding officers and that this law which governed the conduct of the 2019 elections has not been repealed.

The ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) and the opposition Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) are into a fierce verbal war over the purported existence of a server where INEC allegedly stored the results of the February 23 presidential poll won by President Muhammadu Buhari.
Among the eminent lawyers, who commented on the matter yesterday, were Chief Mike Ahamba (SAN), Alasa Ismaila, Muktar Abanika, Dr. Kayode Ajulon, and Ismail Alahusa.

They asserted that said since the Electoral Bill which mandates the immediate transmission of voting results from polling units to collation centres has not come to effect, the so-called transmitted result is invalid and any reliance on it is null and void.
The lawyers drew attention to the 2015 INEC’s Directives, Guidelines and Manuals which provided for the use of smart card reader while Section 49 of the Electoral Act provided for the use of voter cards instead.

According to them, petitioners in previous elections who placed reliance on INEC guidelines by alleging substantial non-compliance with the provisions of the Electoral Act because the smart card reader was not used in the accreditation process and that the election results should be set aside on the basis of the failure to use the smart card reader failed at the Supreme Court.
The Supreme Court, the lawyers said held for instance in Wike Ezenwo Nyesom vs Dakuku Adol Peterside and Others that INEC’s directives on the use of the smart card reader has not invalidated the use of the manual accreditation process, even if it was fraught with fraud.

According to Ahamba, ‘’it is left to the tribunal to determine whether INEC actually gave orders to the presiding officers to transmit the election result electronically to the collation centre or the commission’s server or not.
‘’The tribunal will determine precisely after it has listened to all sides and gone through all the available evidence adduced by parties to the suit. But it is trite law that if INEC gave unlawful instruction, the result so transmitted is unlawful and invalid,’’ he said.

In his views, Ismaila who practices law in Katsina and Abuja said: ‘’It is immaterial whether the presiding officer was instructed to transmit the election results electronically or not. We must determine whether such was governed by the new INEC Guidelines and Manual for the conduct of the 2019 general elections. Even then at his level, he cannot claim ignorance that the Electoral Act (Amendment) Bill which would have authorised it is yet to be signed to law.

‘’The Supreme Court judgement in Edward Nkwegu Okereke vs Nweze David Umahi and Wike Ezenwo Nyesom vs Dakuku Adol Peterside and others are enough lessons not to do things outside the law.
The apex court held in Wike’s case for example that the introduction of the card reader is certainly a welcome development in the electoral process. Although it is meant to improve on the credibility of those accredited to vote so as to check the incidence of rigging, it is yet to be made part of the Electoral Act.

To Abanika,‘’Section 52 (2) of the Electoral Act 2010 as amended which is still in operation prohibits the use of electronic voting machine for the time being in Nigeria, including the transmission of the electronic results.

He said: ‘’Section 65 of the same Electoral Act 2010 that dictates that the election results shall be transmitted manually by the presiding officer, yet that law which governed the conduct of the 2019 elections has not been repealed.”

The Electoral Bill which mandates the immediate transmission of voting results from polling units to collation centres is not yet operational, and as such, the transmitted result is invalid and any reliance place on it is null and void,’’ the lawyers maintained.
Dr. Ajulo, who is the founder of Egalitarian Mission in Africa, said that the PDP candidate (Alhaji Atiku Abubakar) has embarked on a fruitless venture with the results he claimed he got from INEC server.

Ajulo asserted that the result is not admissible in law, adding that ‘’if President Muhammadu Buhari had signed the amended Electoral Act, which included electronic transmission of results, Atiku would have had a valid case against INEC, but as it is, he cannot even tender the results at the tribunal.”

A Kaduna-based lawyer, Ismail Alahusa, agreed with the submissions of Ajulo.
He said that electronic transmission of result is not recognised by the Electoral Act and, therefore, the result Atiku claims he got from INEC server is “just a piece of paper.”

‘’He can’t use it at the tribunal because the law does not even recognize the transmission of result electronically. I want to believe that Atiku was not properly advised before approaching the tribunal to challenge the results of the election,” he said.
But Akinwumi Adisa, a civil rights activist said that Buhari refused to sign the amended Electoral Act Bill into law because of the fraud the APC and INEC perpetrated during the election.

He said: ‘’To every sane Nigerian, the last election is the worst in the history of polls in Nigeria. For every Nigerian that is seeking the good of this country, the last election was a sham and should be condemned by all.
‘’As for the result Atiku claimed he got from INEC server, even if it is not admissible in law, the whole world would be made to know the daylight robbery committed during the last election.’’

A Lagos-based lawyer, Emmanuel Majebi said: “It would not have been possible to transmit the results even if INEC had wanted to do so initially because there are areas that have no network and there are areas where the card readers did not work or were not used.

“The figures Atiku brought is very bogus. The combined votes for him and Buhari is more than the total accredited voters, no other candidates got a vote, no cancellation and no voided votes, that in itself has knocked out his INEC server’s claim. I will not want to say much on the issue because it is in court but I will say the electronic transmission of election results was an ideal that wasn’t possible.

“It was not backed by law. It was to be a parallel process but it didn’t work or INEC probably heard that some people had planned to compromise it and abandoned it without announcement. Transmission to the server of the number of accredited voters, does not translate to the number of votes cast!

Another Lagos-based lawyer Jude Omeire said: “I believe we should not be jumping the gun and we should allow the tribunal to determine the merits and demerits of the petition and the defence. I believe that the law empowered INEC to set guidelines for the conduct of the elections but the question is, can INEC guidelines override the constitution and the Electoral Act?
“It is the responsibility of the tribunal to scrutinise the submitted data, and if needs be as to its source and genuineness,” he said.

Foolish lawyers. Then we should go back to stone age technology. You have refused to make the election material available for scrutiny. Is the demand also illegal.

Emohua is the camp for kidnappers.

Blame it on the government. There is no hope for the youth because of our corrupt leaders. So they get frustrated and allow the devil to use them. The government should draw out programmes to give hope to the youth. Meanwhile, police just set up check points for collection of money. How can they check the activities of criminals with their evil mindset.?

NNPC making very few wealthy and making Nigeria very poor.

And tomorrow he will ask Senate to approve another loan. Confused and corrupt government.

This is more opportunity created for corruption. They should just fence the country round. I bet it won't take more than 1 trillion naira to do that but it will have a long term benefit. Don't tell me it can't be done. If oil pipes can be laid underground and under water from south to north, it can be done.

Islam is a religion of peace. At least the souls will rest in peace.

Good suggestion. But it should include the 15 million naira they get monthly. They can forfeit at least 13 million and make use of 2 million. Dino Melaye will have to sell up to ten cars. And our big Pastors should do likewise.

Women love attention. If you are not ready to give it to them, please don't get married. Otherwise, it will be the same story. Let me also add comfort. Oh, they love comfort a lot. They are ready to cheat on their husband to get the comfort they need.

EFCC is warning up. This is the way they reply critics.

Market is bad. She is looking for new customers.

They already created a job for themselves. Most of them have entered new level of killings. How do we want investors to come into the country with the level of insecurity unattended to. So, who is to be blamed? Let the government continue to pretend they can't do anything about security because the people affected are of a different religion. It will come back and haunt them.

Those who live in glass houses don't throw stones. APC started this issue of nationality first instead of facing the main issues. Now, the hunter is now the hunted.

Nigerians on the average are cowards. Most people are afraid to speak and when you speak, they condemn you. They call you all sorts of names. If we all speak out against the injustice and wickedness of our leaders, change will come faster than we thought. Nigeria prison is not big enough to accommodate activist if they are in thousands. I stand with Omotola.

Is it produced or assembled in Nigeria?

But why the name, Canaan city. Canaan was a cursed man in the Bible. So also his generation. Isreal took over the land of Canaan but never adopted that name.

If truly Dino has done all this den he has done well for his Constituency

I don't agree. I understand that budget is always made for constituency projects. Most of the Senators pocket the money. He only chose this time around to do the right thing. But the people are still hungry and jobless.

I think we need to commend our military men for the effort made so far to curtail the menace of fulani herdmen in some part of country. At least, Buhari scores above average in this area

I am sure he meant Boko Haram and not Fulani Herdsmen. I am not aware the herdsmen have a camp that is localized.

My friend, please you need Christ. Jesus is the only way to God. Jesus spoke of what is happening today but that doesn't mean that you don't have genuine pastors. There is no salvation in Islam and Mohammed. Even the Quran points you to Jesus.

What does one need public office for? Public office holders are slaves and their wealth has limit. If you bring out the list of the richest people in the world, no public office holder will make the first one thousand names.

This judgement is too lenient. He should be sent to jail.

Jails are far the poor. Steal N100 & go to jail. Steal One billion and defect to the ruling party and you will be free.

The truth is that he doesn't know what to do and he doesn't want to leave. May God help us.

Talent without attitude is rubbish. They do not have attitudes that's is why they love killing.

Nigeria is indeed a failed country. A reform made to empower the police to continue to harass civilians is not a reform. It should be amended before it is passed into bill. The rights of the citizens must be considered.

A mother of two identified as Mrs. Añurika Chinwuba, was this afternoon bathed with harmful substance believed to be acid by her husband, Mr. Onyeachonam Chinwuba, who allegedly opposed his wife's demand for divorce.

According to the Anambra State Commissioner for Children and Women Affairs, Lady Ndidi Mezue, the victim who had sought divorce, accusing her husband of living a questionable life, was with her husband in the Ministry of Children and Women Affairs, Awka, yesterday and earlier today where their differences were thought to have been resolved.

It was after they left the Ministry that the husband reached for a bottle containing the harmful substance, which he hid in his clothes, and poured on the victim, causing serious burns on her face down to her body.

The victim was then rushed to the Chukwuemeka Odumegwu Ojukwu University Teaching Hospital, where the Commissioner, Lady Mezue, has already gone to visit and promised to support her.

The husband, who is already in the custody of the police, is a native of Mmiata-Anam, in Anambra West Local Council Area.
