This is what the law said:
Electoral Act 2022 for politicians to obtain multiple nomination forms. According to Section 115 (D) of the Act, a person who signs a nomination paper or result form as a candidate in more than one constituency at the same election commits an offence and is liable on conviction to a maximum term of imprisonment for two years.
Comprehend whether he faulted the rule or not.

He signed the form for senate.did he sign the vp form before withdrawing from senate

DigitalLawyer:


Read the electoral Act, non qualification of a candidate is one of the ground for challenging an election.

The supreme court and new electoral act made it a pre election matter

Slimzy2020:
I will be much interested in the petition filled by smart Peter obi concerning tinubu drug incase which if convicted is not qualified to contest political position thereby nullifying tinubu victory, tinubu the drug Lord won't be president

Was tinubu convicted in us

SeunDAssLicker:


Dude, he signed and submitted a nomination form for senate. At what point was it withdrawn is to be determined by the court. Try to comprehend.

He was selected on the 14 and withdrew on the 15 before signing

IfnobeGod20:

The judge erred in law because it is a constitutional issue and not party constitution issue. The electoral Act stipulates that a candidate cannot be nominated on a two posts on the same election circle. It's never a PDP constitution that say so. It is the right of everyone contesting for election to question the validity or constitutional right of any candidate that falls within the electoral Act or Nigerian constitution.

It is a pre election matter

Nigerians voted for him. Obidients are a small portion of the Nigerian populace. If you see the map of how he won, it’s not sectional, it’s national. He won fair and square. You are just in shock that people did not fall for your lies, bullying, threats and propaganda. A great lesson for you and only what age and wisdom can teach you! Those group of Nigerians are older and wiser than you! They wanted to teach you people a very deadly and painful, everlasting lesson in respect and electioneering.

Human beings generally rebel against use of force and, you this small children can not force your elders to turn a snake into a saint. If you think Obi won the country, what about Atiku’s votes? If we add Atiku and Tinubu’s votes together, it shows majority of the country did not want Obi as their President. Sorry for your great loss but welcome to reality. Lmao.

I just suprise how some people will know the truth and still choose to lie just because of tribe/religion. You are just a wicked person.

Isobug:

Court Cases are different. If one failed with a particular prayer another person may succeed with the same prayer in the same court. It's not yet time for jubilation.
Meanwhile, Court proceedings are all about evidence. The judges claimed Atiku has no legal basis to institute the case. If your lawyers Provide enough evidence the case is yours nomatter the locus

Do you understand what locus mean in Law? Bing ai search would be helpful for you but suffice to say that LP does not have Locus on this line of prayer.

Moreover, that sort of matter is a pre-election matter Nd would hardly qualify as a reason to remove a candidate with the majority vote. You can check the grounds under which a candidate may bring a post-election petition in the Electoral Act.

Only relevant issues to raise is the irregularities alleged against the election:

Failure to use electronic machines to upload polling station results, which could allow for vote tampering.

Discrepancies between the photo evidence of vote counts and the actual results uploaded to INEC’s portal.

Violence and voter intimidation in some areas, especially in the south-south and south-east regions.

Delays and technical problems in opening some polling centers and counting votes.

Manipulation of votes and collation of results in favor of the ruling party.

And the numbers decripancies!

Every other matter alleged in PO’s petition have been decided & overflogged severally in Courts, even by Obasanjo & Gani Fawehinmi of blessed memory, since 1999 / and judicial precedent will largely apply here.

tamdun:

Obi is not smart at all,he's just cunning

Obi is just doing it for his mobs so that it will look like he didn't give up easily 😂🤣😜

Stop using the name of Allah to support evil.

Allah is not stupid to hear such prayers

Allah and Islam are no longer evil? These people self.

soojar:



I am not a lawyer but I know this is not correct. This is an appeal court that has ruled in this case, there is no lower court that can rule against it again except a supreme court.

Also, there is no evidence you want to provide that is acceptable because according to the Judges "you are a meddlesome interloper", meaning the case doesn't concern you why are you poke nosing into the affair of APC, it's their internal affair. One of Obi's cases is already out at the tribunal except when it gets to supreme court they see otherwise.




We learn everyday.

This one done become no go area for the Tribunal

2elliot:
What of the electoral act that says no one person should have two or more nomination at the same time in an electioneering season? Is individual party constitution above the electoral act?

Had the Supreme not even settled this in the case of Senate President and Akpabio? Why are you guys blind?

SeunDAssLicker:


Dude, he signed and submitted a nomination form for senate. At what point was it withdrawn is to be determined by the court. Try to comprehend.

This matter , Akpabio and senate president's matter not same? A matter supreme court had decided.

vacanci:


Since FCT is not a state, you don't expect the constitution to say you should get 25% in 37 states. So it stated 36 states and the FCT. Technically you need 2/3rd of 37.

Bookmark this. This argument will be the easiest to knock off at the appeal.

I have sir.

They will accept in hard way.

Supremos:
We should as well brace up because Tinubu is our president elect.

Some of the charges Obi lawyers filled seems to be watery and some of them have been over flogged in different rulings.

Let's keep our fingers crossed.

2elliot:
Gubernatorial elections use only simple majority. It does not look at 25% spread in LGAs won.

Don't be so loud in Ignorance please.
A gubernatorial Candidate would be deemed to have won election if;
1.He scored the highest number of lawful Votes cast
2. He scored at least 25% of votes cast in 2/3 of the LGs within the State.

barbstee:
Ok

I think Obi will learn a lesson here and not waste the courts time.

BAT is our president elect.
May Allah ease the task for him

This FTC mentality has eaten up your brain cells. Did you hear they mentioned anything about LP Olodo

you are confusing yourself, the judge said no party have the right to dabble into another party internal affairs, one of Peter Obi watering case is off

hardbody:


Your Allah may try but my God won't let him enjoy stealing the mandate of the people.

You will understand when the rulings are made in Obi's case. Atiku and BAT are serving the same Allah so their Allah knows what he is doing with them, God don't care about Allah.

ALHAMDULILLAH
If not for Islam I would have been like this my friend

Goodnigga:
Why compare Adeleke case and Obi case? did you read the 3 responses from the Adeleke-Oyetola judges properly? One major case of Obi is prayer point #5 of Inec not complying with their own electoral laws with back up evidences making a 100 page litigation. Will the court overlook a drug case too with evidence and reinterpret the 25% FCT? Please try not to reason with the anus.

Drug case my foot! You that's reasoning with your brain, see what you wrote. If you must know, a guilty verdict anywhere in the world, does not mean same in Nigeria. You have to go on trial in Nigeria for you to be found guilty in Nigeria. This is because our laws are different. An offence in the US may not be an offence in Nigeria ( people found guilty of drug offences and sentenced to jail terms outside Nigeria, after deportation, they undergo fresh trials to be sentenced under Nigerian laws). The tribunal is not cut out for such criminal cases, therefore your Obi is wasting his time. On the 25% brouhaha, there's nothing there. The FCT is a mini state, it cannot hold Nigeria to ransom, that's why it is called a territory just like Lagos Island when it was the seat of power.

It is a pre election matter

It's never a preelection matter. All preelection matters must be determined before each election by the new electoral Act. If it was, the court would have thrown it out as an academic exercise.

emilo2bad:

That wasn't an internal affair of the party because the case is on what the 2022 electoral Act says, that no candidate would be nominated for two posts in a single election circle. It is only a matter that of party constitution that is within the party members and not constitutional or electoral Act.
The judges played to the gallery. PDP need to push it further to supreme court. The letter of the electoral Act need be obeyed by everybody. The party constitution cannot be contested by non party member but content of the electoral Act and constitution can be contested by party members. To me the judges erred in law and just played to the gallery.

Oga,it is a pre election matter.any matter that happens before elections are held are pre election matters.it is not a must that pre election matters must be disposed of before elections.assuming someone went to court in sept or October over election issues,it cannot be determined before February.

Mr. Man, by the new electoral Act every preelection matter must end before the election proper. That is why there is a time frame for anyone to institute an electoral case as soon as the cause of action takes place. Everything about election matters are time lag now based on the new electoral Act.

Which section of the electoral act states so?

If the judges had mentioned that it is a preelection matter but saying the PDP doesn't have right to dabble into internal affair of the party, it made them erred in law. They are not contesting the content of APC constitution but what was written in the electoral Act that candidates cannot be nominated for two posts in an election circle by political party. Do you know that there is even a penalty allotted for breaking such rule? There is a jail term allotted for having or nominated for two posts in an election circle.

My brother,I am an authority in electoral law.any matter arising before elections categorized as a pre election matter.moreover,the penalty for that according to you is conviction and shettima has immunity
