fergie001: They should go back and review that law so that other parties can have locus to challenge things like this. Nigerian politicians are crafty criminals, they always look for loopholes in every law to explore. |

Indispensable85:Even in the old Electoral Act, it was like that. The only difference was based on Certificate issues (S29). Based on credentials, certificate issues..It used to be any person but now they have changed it to only an Aspirant. S84(14): Notwithstanding the provisions of this Act or rules of a political party, an aspirant who complains that any of the provisions of this Act and the guidelines of a political party have not been complied with in the selection or nomination of a candidate of a political party for election, may apply to the Federal High Court for redress. 1 Like |

Image123: So the south east controls the judiciary right? APC has two senators in Imo plus Orji uzor Kalu from Abia. If they are looking to give south east Senate presidency, we have candidates. Senator Izunaso from Imo west is coming, he will replace Rochas and he is APC. |

Advocate500: That makes his case a straight forward one for APC, since he didn't participate in the primary that should have made him a candidate. So it is assumed PDP have no candidate in bauchi governorship election 2 Likes |

Advocate500: Bala Mohammed participated in two primaries and scored votes, I don't even think the issue here is the candidate stepping down but participating in two primaries, the judge relied on section 115 of the electoral act for his judgement. 3 Likes 2 Shares |

[quote author=neoclassical post=114979111]Federal High Court sitting in Abakaliki has sacked Gov Dave Umahi as Ebonyi South APC Senatorial Candidate and upheld Mrs Ann Agom Eze as the authentic candidate for the Party. Details shorty. UPDATED: This is the woman that defeated His Excellency, Engr David Umahi today in Abakaliki Federal High Court. She's Mrs Ann Agom-eze. She came second in the APC senatorial primary election for Ebonyi South Zone. Engr David Umahi's younger brother, Austin Umahi came first. Austin Umahi withdrew from the election and relinquished the ticket to Engr David Umahi. INEC frowned at it and omitted Engr David Umahi's name as it never monitored the rerun exercise announcing Umahi candidate. Engr David Umahi went to Federal High Court in Abakaliki, seeking order of court for INEC to publish his name as senatorial candidate for Ebonyi South. Ann Agom-eze applied to be joined in the suit. see face see shoulder. Women |
