Is he prepared to follow the electoral act this time or he just want
to select a 6 months tenure chairmen again?

Smartcitizen:
You are quoting rubbish, the law is the law and if you fail below the standard of it you will pay for it, no amount of emotions will save you.

You are the one suffering from emotional confusion.
The law is not the law as you imagined.
It is like saying you can sue a person for damaging your neighbors fence.
What's your business with that?

You can't leave your party and go to another party and still want to carry the mandate of the party with you, it's not possible and that's not the position of the law.

Politicians do it all the time.
In fact, a simple Google will give you enough samples for this year alone.
Even if a party want to punish a defector(in this case, PDP never made a move),
they would have to prove there was a legal defection.
That is, the suspected member resigning from party, joining another party at ward level and paying the required fee.

You may argue that you saw a video, that is nonsense in the eyes of the law.
If you claim to be the president on video, that doesn't automatically make you a president.
There is a process to these things.

christejames:
Since the court didn't give timeline to conduct new election, Fubara should keep using his Heads of LG to run the affairs of Local Govt in the state and only conduct elections just few months to 2027 elections, make we see how that dipso in Abuja will be fighting for Tinubu with one hand and Rivers State with the other

See this one.
With LG autonomy, no election, no allocation!
Days of caretakers are over!

And if Fubara decides to rush elections again like last time without adhering to electoral act,
the new chairmen will be sacked again.

Frank is being an idiot as usual.
He should have learnt by now that he cannot blackmail the supreme court.

The issue of defection was indeed before the supreme court.
Fubara lied that he recently started the case at the high court even though he
has no standing on the issue.

Nobody except the sponsoring party has the right to sue an elected person for defection.

Smartcitizen:
For records before Tinubu and his supporters will start destroying everything including the supreme Court

Let people of goodwill in Nigeria continue to circulate this judgement by supreme Court years ago.



👇👇👇👇

You don't even understand the picture you posted
Supreme court and not the governor sacked him.
Secondly, it was the party and not the governor that initiated the case.

No governor including Fubara has a standing on the issue of defection of an elected person.
Only the party can complain and must be done with evidence!

LordBiden:
Most lagosians are spineless when it comes to politics,they fear tinubu like crazy no wonder he held the state spell bound for many years.
Same with that ambode,spineless bunch.

They need to learn stronghead from south south peeps like obaseki and fubara.

Obaseki and Fubara will be like children in politics if you bring them into Lagos political climate.
Stronghead is useless in such context.

MrHighSea:
Misleading the public

Not a crime unless she financially benefited fraudulently or someone got harmed.

False claims

Doesn't apply in this case.
Lying is not a crime unless it is accompanied by financial fraud or benefits.

She could make the company to lose real buyers

This isn't a crime as the law doesn't operate on assumptions and suppositions.
But if the company can show they have lost money, then they can be compensated
from her daily daily hawking profits!

alizma:
Buy claiming that she bought the house, many potential buyers may have turn their interest from that building after making some inquiries or seeing the video online. Therefore the company can claim damaged .

But that is not a crime warranting an arrest.
It is a civil suit. The police should never have been involved.
This is nothing but abuse of police power.

writetopoker601:
Brigadier general from your village abi?

Where has that happened before

How old are you?
It happened in Plateau and it happened in Ekiti.

ddippset:
Legally Fubara hasn't committed any single violation.

Every single action he took was backed by a valid court order form the Rivers State High Courts.

Rivers state high court cannot override Federal, Appeal and Supreme court!
Do I need to spell this out.
Fubara was ordered to represent the budget by three highest courts, he ignored them all
and he is still ignoring them.

Mark this post.
Fubara will be the first legally impeached governor with no option to come back if he continues
in his illegal grandstanding.

erico2k2:
Falsely declaring she paid robo something N200m towards the house.That is a false claim and 419

No, it is not 419.
If I claim to have paid 100m to buy Aso-rock, the claim in itself is not a crime.
Unless somebody was harmed by the statement or suffer financial loss, in which
case would most likely result in a civil suit, not a criminal prosecution.
If such a claim was used to defraud a person, then we have a crime.

In this case, there is no evidence, the testimony giver defrauded anyone.

treatise:
Deceit, misinformation, and others.

Neither deceit or misinformation is a crime.
Unless you can prove that such deceit led to an actual crime.

PaChukwudi44:
No need arguing with you. Shebi your useless 48hrs ultimatum will expire by Wednesday? Go ahead and impeach him lets see.

Forget about ultimatum, Fubara will be impeached if he failed to represent the budget.
You should have learn by now that time doesn't favor your political analysis.
I can't count the number of times you celebrated very early only for your predictions to
fail badly at the end of the day.

It seems this Jim Okolo is gunning for a top political post.

psucc:
Sanwo-Olu is just lucky that he didn't try that in his first term, that would have ended his stay in Alausa.

Now, he's no longer making headlines in the news since Obasa returned to Nigeria.

Power Pass Power

Sanwo-Olu is not lucky.
He is just not stupid to start a fight at the wrong time.
Even now, nobody can pin the assembly issue on him.

psucc:
The agreement is one-sided. What did the community offered the bandits in return for peace?

Sure, there's that part they don't want us to know. It's either levies will be paid or a monthly allocations. Those boys can't go empty handed

It will be levies.
But the bandits will soon realize that levies can't match up to kinapping ransom and cattle rustling
and will go back to their banditry.

Foolish deal that will collapse soonest.
The bandits hold all the cards, the have the weapons, the fortress and the money.

You will never find them in protest against oil spill and unemployment in Bayelsa.
But when mobilized with 3K, they would support anything.
What a shame.

Will Obasa willingly resign?

What is the crime here?

Way to go.
It was a senseless policy.
I was surprised the governors didn't also give the civil servants 5 weeks break for fasting
to ease the stress as they claimed.

Well, everyone can clearly see that "Sharia for muslims only" is a lie to hoodwink the gullible.

PaChukwudi44:
Shebi it is the state CJ who will chose the members of the panel? So shebi you can now see how that will go?

I just said the panel's verdict won't matter.
The house will still declare an impeachment which will turn Fubara to a civilian.

Then Fubara will need to reverse the "wrong" impeachment via the courts as other
governors like Obi, Ladoja and Nyako did.

If you check all those cases, all the governors lost their office first and became
civilians before finally reversing their impeachment via the courts.

The real problem for Fubara is that the lawmakers have real documented violations against him.
If they were ordinary or fake violations, it would have been better but Fubara thinks and has been
acting like he is bigger than the courts and consistently ignoring their orders.

HydraFeeds:
The world will be a better place is US,Russia and China unite .

We might be looking at true globalisation in our time .

It appears you don't the meaning of gloablisation.
Trump was elected to destroy globalisation!

PaChukwudi44:
You are the joker not me.It happened before in Nassarawa state.Once the panel pronounces not guilty the impeachment proceeding ends.

You cannot impeach a state Governor without the support of the state Chief Judge.

State chief judge role is to constitute panel by force, he can't choose not to.
The verdict won't matter, Fubara will be impeached and will become an ex-governor.
He will then need to go and reclaim his seat as an ordinary citizen through the same judiciary
he has consistently attacked and belittled their orders.

Fubara will be the first impeached governor to fail in reversing his impeachment
because he committed a grave offense called contempt of court.

PaChukwudi44:
Abeg shut up. If the panel finds him not guilty that will be the end.

Joker.

oyichi:
They will not see him to deliver any later, he resides in government house with fubara, no one can impeach this governor

See this one.
The Chief judge must perform his constitutional duties.
Have you ever seen a chief judge refuse to swear in a governor?
No, that is because, they have no choice.
They either do their job or get removed from office.

Risingblue008:
These should be among the sets of pple soludo should be chasing too
Their scam is in the highest method,

Don't be deceived.
Soludo isn't chasing scammers.

JagabanBorgu:
This is laughable.
The legal code came to MOST African countries through colonial rule, it's a colonial remnant.
The Court is also a colonial remnant but Africans in their profound wisdom think that removing the wig which came along with the court but keeping the court and the legal system is seen as a "challenge outdated colonial practices".
This is why the continent doesn't really grow.

Correct.
I hate it when countries define their identity in terms of colonialists.
It reeks of inferiority complex.

There are millions of reasons to dump the wigs(it has even been abandoned
by many colonialist), but what is it about perpetual victimhood?

And leaders who do this showmanship are those who needs to distract the
populace from pressing issues.

The irony is that the military uniform the dear leader of Burkina Faso wears
is also a colonial relic. That is not how an African General dressed.

IGBOPROMISE1:
Your diseased so called 'supreme court' is not built on or guided by justice! Did the fcktards care to ask why the federal gov't didn't release Mazi Kanu when he was initially set free only for them to still hold on to him against the spirit and ruling of the law while they made moves to appeal against the valid judgement!? Did your jaundiced and hegemony-controlled 'supreme court' take into cognisance the fact that Mazi Kanu was extraordinarily renditioned....kidnapped even, by the evil Buhari gov't, hence their is no legal foundation for them trying to build a case on illegality!? Remember what is required of he who comes to equity? Dude, forget it....you wicked and hateful souls don't have a judicial leg to stand on!

All these years, you have not developed correct legal reasoning.
There is nothing like extra-ordinary rendition anywhere in Nigerian law but because
the political lawyers know how ignorant their audience is, they continue to spout
the nonsense.
He could have been disappeared, kidnapped, tricked however he was obtained is
irrelevant to the charges against him.

As of today, March 2, Kanu is being legally held that is all that matters.

Paraman:
Even though there's no evidence your brother was ever a thief, if someone accuse him of being a thief, you will accept it? I pray something like this won't happen to you.

I believe her.
You seem to struggle with analogy.
Akpabio is a shameless womanizer that fits in with your brother being a serial thief.
It is even worse if a friend of your said brother was the accuser since we know Natasha
and Akpabio have known each other for a long time as "family friends" before she became a senator.
You can bury your head in sand as long as you want.

BTW, stop wasting time praying. The world operates base action and consequence.

It's because of your hate for the APC, Tinubu and Akpabio you guys are talking like this. This is the same lady who accused Reno of the same thing sometime ago. I'm surprise you people are believing the word of a person like that

Why do you guys believe when you mention "hate", you automatically win political argument?
I have seen this so many that it feels like dealing with some programmed bot.

Is it some sort of cult indoctrination or just sustained propaganda?
Perhaps, you were expecting a defensive reaction, that is what the naive will do, not me.

FYI, it means nothing to me.
Nobody is under any obligation to love , hate, cherish, or despise your party/organization or whichever demi-god
you worship.
On the issue of extreme womanizing, Akpabio is a disgrace to public service.

Paraman:
If someone accuse your brother of being a thief, will you accept your brother is a theif because of a mere accusation?

If your brother had been a serial thief and was now accused again.
The sensible thing to do is to partially believe and then ask for investigation.

It is very easy to identify children in politics.
For the umpteenth time, Fubara is neither a king nor an emperor.
He is not superior to the house or judiciary!
