Who told you that the judiciary is compromised? Why are you overlooking the serious infractions and evidences but talking rubbish driven by hateful sentiments
Apc can't have 30 states.they currently have 20.if you add zamfara,plateau and Kano,it will be 23.another states I suspect will be sacked is taraba,akwa ibom and adamawa but taraba will go nnpp while aks is ypp so highest is 24 states.once apc wins Edo next year,it's 25 and if fubara defects it's 26.so apc can't have 31 like pdp once had

MightySparrow:
I quite agree with you. The Supreme Court is not an evidence court. It only see if the judgement is consistent with the provisions of the Law.
However, the outcome is not automatic the judgement of either of the lower courts will not be held

Bobloco:
Really, why leave out NNPP, because you have seen the obvious criminality being perpetuated there using the court

garfield1:
Oga,focus on pdp and leave nnpp

This matter is different

You can confirm.

The SC sits in 7 especially on Constitutional matters. No matter how wrong or bizarre that judgement is, for it to be vacated, they must sit in 7. It's a conventional procedure.

The Appeal Court can also sit in 5 if it's a Constitutional matter as well like in Jegede v. Aketi.

no supreme court will interpret it not me I am not a court

Penalty shootout

so you can't read and understand again what it's says

Bobloco:
Are you not sure of the section of law you quoted


Well here is the section of the electoral act I am conversant with

(1) Subject to subsection (2), a ballot paper which does not bear
official mark prescribed by the Commission shall not be counted.
(2) If the returning officer is satisfied that a ballot paper which does not
bear the official mark was from a book of ballot papers which was furnished
to the presiding officer of the polling unit in which the vote was cast for use at
the election in question, he or she shall, notwithstanding the absence of the
official mark, count that ballot paper.

yarimo:
nobody said supreme court won't interpret the law in the first place

yarimo:
sections 163 of the electoral act 2022 discribe it as invalid votes

yarimo:
I don't really even know your argument here, you are just confusing yourself. It's clear constitutionally invalid is invalid. Nobody is stopping anyone from going to court

fergie001:
My argument on the Plateau matter is that whether it was well-conducted or not, an Appeal Court validated the fresh Congress in February this year.

I know Justices Andenyangtso & Goodluck were on that panel so tbh I am at a loss.

yarimo:
according to sections 163 of electoral act 2022 it remains invalid, how can PO reject something he issue by himself

slivertongue:
I knew BCM was going to be sucked by the appeal court and I said same to garfield1 but am waiting for the Supreme Court to do a u-turn &say a different thing with regards to a settled exco matter filed by a meddlesome interloper.
