Cool

I wonder how the cabals in Kano and anti-Sanusi elements in the Emirate will be taking all these!


Anyways, despite his flaws as a human, Sanusi is more important and relevant to the country outside the throne.


Caveat;

This is no endorsement for Politics of 2023.
He is a Technocrat. Let him remain so.

Lifestone:
So what was the result that made Lyon Governor elect?

That has been set aside.

Lostz:
I thought election petition must be filled 21 days after election and judgement delivered 180 days after?

After winner is declared.

No biggie

Smithkafors:
See them above defending tinubu..... someone that couldn't develop Lagos State despite being a former governor and kingmaker.God forbid tinubu to become the president of this country.....you can't give what you don't have.

How old were you when Tinubu was governor 21 years ago?

No be by fight o. I just wanna know so we can discuss happenings back then and then I can point out few things that changed under him.

Amumaigwe:
A running mate can no longer be changed after elections he contested is won. Even at the point the High Court made the pronouncement on the APCdeputy governorship candidate, the window of nomination had been closed by INEC and it is only in the event of death that they are permitted by the Electoral Act to make any other substitutions.

How come Amaechi was substituted for Omehia but Tele Ikuru wasn't removed?

gunther6:
You close land borders yet you groan when Americans and Europeans shut you out of their country, double standards much

Make una dey reason before una type. Did he close birder to human movement?

englishmart:
That was a mid-table club then.

Are you for real?

palmshots:
Unfortunately, Jay jay was sidelined from this prestigious award due to anglophone/francophone country issue... You need to hear the then CAF president speak on it

Your head get oil. There was a year he bettered Eto o even. He won BBC player of the year award but the francophone bias made the Caf awards go to Eto o that same year.

ERockson:
Okocha is simply overrated player. So you guys should stop mentioning his name. His total career goals is not up to Kanu's highest season goals in one season. He got excellent entertaining skills but naturally non serious player like the listed fours

I bet you didn't know he bettered Mustapha Hadji in 1998 but was robbed. I also guess you didn't know he was signed by PSG for 16 million dollars that same year.

englishmart:

Victor Ikpeba and Bet9ja have been ruining more lives than they have bettered lives

Okocha should have been in the list if he played for a reasonable club and took goalscoring seriously. Okocha that will dribble everybody including himself and still choose not to score

So Okocha didn't play at PSG with Ronaldinho, right?

Abbycite:
Let me put this way, the review is just an academic exercise.....nothing is coming off it as regards to the situation of governorship seat.

The Supreme Court judgement is final. But the supreme court judges are humans, so they are prone to errors like every human beings. So there is an avenue to review their judgement if there is a public outcry like we have now. I think this is done in order to forestall using the judgment for future citation in similar cases.

It is not an academic exercise.

Abbycite:
I dont' get....are u saying there is a situation whereby the judgment of the Supreme Court was vacated after going through a review??

If there is a situation like that.....can u please point me to it

Yes boss.

They reversed themselves in 1999 after reviewing a case. See precedents below:

Johnson v Lawanson
One of the earliest cases in which the Supreme Court was asked to reverse itself dates back to 1971 in the suit filed by Kobina Johnson and other vs Irene Lawanson and other.

This case is often referred to as the locus classical on the Supreme Court’s power to reverse itself on earlier decisions. The contention then was about the application of section 129 of the evidence act with regards to the duration within which a deed of assignment can be valid and competent.


Before the request for a review of the matter, the apex court had held and promoted a precedent that for a deed to be competent and relied on as contemplated by section 129 of the evidence act, it must be 20 years old at the date of proceedings. This was the law until February 12, 1971 when the Supreme Court decided to reverse itself.

The court which regretted its earlier position held that for a deed to be competent for the presumption contemplated by section 129 of the Evidence Act, it must be 20 years old “at the date of the contract” in which the deed is sought to be relied upon and not 20 years old at the date of the proceedings in which such a deed is being offered in evidence.


Coker J.S.C. delivering the court’s judgment held that “when the court is faced with the alternative of perpetuating what it is satisfied is an erroneous decision which was reached per incuriam and will, if followed, inflict hardship and injustice upon the generations in the future or of causing temporary disturbances of rights acquired under such a decision, I do not think we shall hesitate to declare the law as we find it.” The court then ordered that the appeal be re-heard de novo by another panel of Justices of the Supreme Court.

Olorunfemi v Asho

This is yet another case in which the Supreme Court took the bold position to set aside its earlier decision. The Supreme Court set aside its judgment delivered in January 8, 1999 on the ground that, it failed to consider the respondents’ cross–appeal before allowing the appellant’s appeal.

The judgment relates to an appeal and a cross-appeal from the decision of the Court of Appeal (Kolawole, Tobi and Ubeazonu, J.JCA. The respondents (“the plaintiffs”) sued the appellants (“the defendants”) in the High Court of Lagos State claiming damages for trespass allegedly committed by the defendants on land at Akesan village sometime in December 1983 and injunction.


The defendants, on their own, counterclaimed against the plaintiffs for a declaration of customary right of occupancy to the land in dispute, damages for trespass and injunction. The High Court (Onalaja, J., as he then was) after taking evidence on the claim and the counterclaim, dismissed the plaintiff’s claim in its entirety.

He granted the declaration sought by the defendants and restrained the plaintiffs from further acts of trespass on the land claimed by the defendants. He rejected the defendant’s claim for damages for trespass. The plaintiffs filed an appeal that went all the way to the Supreme Court.

Abbycite:
Is not really an appeal.....the supreme court will review the judgement and whatever their decision will be, it won't affect the execution of the previous judgment.

It can affect the execution of the previous judgement as they can reverse and make another pronouncement. There are precedents in that regard.

RagaMufeen:
Someone should tell Tanko we're waiting for his shenanigans.

You people's problem is that you don't read body of a news. You only read the title.

luluosas:
Can the supreme Court reverses itself? Let's see as the battle begins tomorrow

They reversed themselves in 1971 and 1999.

Going down soon.

Thief talking...
