Unless and of course Nigerians including Mr. Sagay easily forget, what about the sitting president that went to courts on three occasions. Let him fight for his rights. If he looses, that is his Own Cup of tea not yours. In any case, why should he listen to you an interested party.

How can he stop being a loser, when loser has already become his middle name.
He been losing since 2007, that's over a decade worth of losing

Why is the APC afraid of judicial scrutiny? Why are they all of a sudden preaching about the need for Atiku to make the call. Let's all be patient and wait for the judicial scrutiny of these suspicious result, especially those from some of the northern states. At least, it will give all of us to know how true the assertion that Mr President has integrity is. Let's us all stop still unpatriotic call for Atiku not to go to court.

Donmedra:
I've admitted Atiku Abubabakar was a very bad choice, he was never a serious contestant and he's not love up north and will never be loved by them.

He spent much time fighting corruption allegations and the other time begging for useless endorsements.

Saraki was too over hyped and Obasanjo overestimated himself.

Too bad though. Atiku will loose the court case

Atiku Abubakar was never a bad choice....
His time will eventually come....
Buhari lost 3 times, 2003, 2007 & 2011....
Buhari also went to court... No big deal...
It is not easy to have over 11 million votes in your first shot in an election... that damn close even to General PMB...
Thats almost close to what Buhari had in 2003,2007 & 2011....
And close to votes GEJ had as a President...
Most of you are naive about the North...
They always find a way of settling their differences...

will he contest again? If PDP want to take power in 2023 they should start working hard now. Start making formula and building alliances and bridges.

They shouldn't spread hate and they should not let money decides their actions

When Buhari lost his previous elections, he went to court and he even made threats paradventure he lost the last election, so on what basis, are these people advising Atiku to accept defeat?

Suddenly you have concerns about the Atiku you insulted all over the place before the elections.

Is it your dignity or your money that is making you care so much for him?

Let him exercise his fundamental and electoral rights.

It is good for our democracy.

Not only Governors and Legislators have the monopoly of going to court.

Atiku, you have come this far; you might as well go all the way; remember that not accepting and fighting to the bitter end will earn you much respect from the millions of Niiferians who voted for you.

Carry go!

The president himself has been to the Tribunal, was he a double loser?

Going by this, it means buhari lost 6times. Were was sagay then to offer advice

Chepy:
Atiku will win in Tribunal only if that tribunal is in another country with judges from another country

I advise you read the report of the observers on this election.

To a very large extent, it complied with the rules and it was fair.

Atiku going to court?

1. When he was Vice President, PDP scored 100% votes (2.1m votes in Presidential and Governorship elections) in Rivers State in 2003 election and Court doesn't see anything wrong with that. Nobody died, nobody travelled. No thanks to Gov Odili then.

2. The over 500 thousand he talked about were cancelled for non compliance.

3. My submission is that double loss awaits Atiku.

To all athiefkulators and obituaries take this

TechCapon:
Most nairaland political commentators are foolish. They're happy because they think atiku has lost a lot of money and his account is blinking red by now. What they fail to realize is that there are people called political lobbyists. Those lobbyists are ready to sponsor a political candidate with billions so they will benefit from his government.

Financially, I don't think atiku even touched his personal money during this campaign same thing with buhari. There are lobbyists always on ground to pick up their bills and enter the good books.

To the topic, I think atiku is wasting his time. Tanko Mohammed CJN was installed at the dying minute to deal with this issue. That was the smartest move buhari has ever made in his presidency.

Tanko was installed because the previous CJN was a corrupt Judge who admitted wrongdoing in not declaring his assets properly.

Don't change the narrative. Atiku would fail in Both the election petitions tribunal and the court of appeals. The Supreme Court would just be following suit.

nairavsdollars:
Prof. Itse Sagay (SAN), Chairman of the Presidential Advisory Committee Against Corruption (PACAC); Chief Olisa Agbakoba, former president of the Nigerian Bar Association (NBA) and Prince Tony Momoh, former Minister of Information, have advised Atiku Abubakar to accept defeat in last Saturday’s presidential election and refrain from challenging the outcome in court.

In a chat with Daily Independent, Sagay said aside losing the elections, Atiku would also lose in court because the election complied substantially with the rules of elections as noted by both local and foreign observers.

He urged him to maintain his dignity and earn the respect of Nigerians and the world by congratulating Buhari just as former President Goodluck Jonathan did in 2015.

Sagay said: “My advice to Atiku is that it’s not advisable for him to go to court for political and moral reasons.

“He should be mature politically and accept defeat with dignity.

“By rejecting the result, what he is doing is to drag himself on the ground and lose all the little dignity that he has left. At the end of the day, he will be a double loser.

“On the legal side, you can only upset a declaration of victory of an election if you can establish that the process of the election did not comply substantially with the rules of the election.

“So, if there is failure to comply in some areas, it has no effect on the validity of the election. It has to be substantial.

“There is no way anybody can say that this election does not comply substantially in electoral rules. All the various observers and monitors have written their reports and they have said it was a well organised election with hitches here and there.

“What this means is that they are saying it substantially complies with the rules. So, legally, Atiku will fail, morally he will fail, and so, it’s not just good for him.

“Today, the only claim to fame that Jonathan has was in accepting defeat and phoning President Buhari.

“After we have blamed him for his misgovernance and all the poor things he did, then we remember that aspect and then we respect him and the world also respects him for it.

“So, I think we should advice Atiku to follow the same pattern and do what Jonathan did so that he can reserve some respect for himself.”

stupid old men talking. They are talking because they know that atiku has a case. This is the first time I am hearing people beg someone who was cheated not to go to court to seek redress. How many people did buhari call all the times he lost elections? U old men are mischievous and foolish.

Now they are afraid of the court.

when u said lobbyists, do u think that is a group of irrational thinking beings. So, u think they made their billions taking foolish risks. Get this straight, nobody will sponsor his tribunal as Atiku himself was the major financier of his campaign

Just Remembering

Chief M. K. O. ABIOLA.


What a Blessed Democratic Memory !

stephleena:
They should allow Atiku do his thing ..

Thank you my sister. It is his constitutional right to contest and to also go to Tribunal.

oluwamile:
Moral story,dnt think money is everything,he was busy chasing money
Saraki and obasanjo are the most overhyped politicians in this world

they ar not overhyped. dey only lost som touches of d dots nd d lines break. that's all.
once d lines break, u lose d grip...

APC is made up of demonic Hypocrites. Buhari went to court each time he lost. Three times.

The same people that are telling Atiku not to go to court did not tell Buhari not to go to court.

How am I in the same country with these people?

I wonder why they are all begging him not to go
