Yes against the bosses choice.

Osibanjo did contest against buhari either.

He contested against his main boss Tinubu.

Shattuck:
It means nothing honestly, being reinstated does not give you power still to call any shot in government, obaseki can continue pressing ya neck.

It means a lot... He will finish the tenure as a deputy governor with all privileges due to a deputy governor, couple with the fact that the primary that produced his opponent has been nullified. He's winning

ddippset:
As soon as I saw the headline I already knew it would be an Abuja court..

Some forces are bent on dealing with Obaseki.

Forces led by who else but the President of Abuja, who has got a leg in APC and the other in PDP!!


Justice Omotosho again!

Yes same omotosho that dismissed shaibu's suit against asue Ighodalo and subsequently affirm him as pdp duely elected candidate for 2024 guber election in edo.

senatordave1:


He contested against his main boss Tinubu.

Lolz main bos who was the President? So who is buhari?

is there godfather in our constitution?

MelesZanawi:


You're a very foolish person
Justice Omotosho gave the same judgement reinstating Asue Ighodalo as Pdp candidate and also gave this, but you are calling this a Kangaroo judgement.

I don't know the dustbin where PDP use to gather these illiterates from.

That guy is a dunce. Just ignore him and his likes here.

Shuibu had always been the political backbone of Obaseki. Whatever obaseki did in edom was motivated or will I say Shuaibu was instrumental to it.
Ordinarily, obaseki can't stand shuaibu if not for d power of a governor.
Now that Shuaibu, wike and Oshomole are in same line, I wonder how fast Obaseki will sink politically.

LDaVinci:


sadly they will just appeal and file and application for stay of execution and before that can be attended to, the election will be over

Dey play....did you see the speed with which this judgement was delivered? You think it's ordinary? The powers that be can make judgement happen at the appeal court in few weeks. I remember oshiomhole court case then, when he was removed as chairman of Apc. Appeal court rush the matter like sharwama.

fergie001:
Shaibu can't come back.

U don dey support illegality again.

yarimo:
Shuiabu should resume to office immediately, the is victory for democracy

Where have you been? You are behind time.

Obaseki has applied for stay of execution. So, not yet Uhuru.

Because of your noisy rants, you didn't pay attention.

welcome development

Obaseki has not seen any things. The Palace will give him assignment that he can never come out from. You eat beleful say you wan fight Edo.

He will get plenty assignment and he will not remember Palace again. I pity him shall

HIGHESTPOPORI:
After everything the people choice is ighodalo.Politicians and rigging don't work In Edo

are you deceiving yourself or you are not from Edo State. Lucky igbinedion won his second term election 2003, through rigging after his first term woeful performance. That same Edo, a whole professor of law, Osunbor, rigged his election and was disgraced out of office by the court. So pack well if you don't know anything about Edo politics

ttobizz:

I wonder on what ground you call someone foolish.
On what constitutional ground can a sitting Deputy governor be impeached?
Who's responsibility is it to sack the Deputy governor, by what procedure?
What are the causes of the disagreements between Shuaibu and Obaseki?

My friend the cute baby lion you guys are taking in today will eventually become the monster that will consume you. Mark these words

The problem you have is that you are zealous but ignorant.

The Court is not a court officer gossips and emotions. Go and look for the judgment and read it. It will educate you further.

BleedingPen:

The Court held that there was a breach of the provisions of the procedure laid out in Section 188(1) to (9) in the way and manner the impeachment process was conducted. The court noted that the ouster clause in Section 188(10) limiting the jurisdiction is not a stand alone provision.

The Court referred to the decision of the Nigerian Supreme Court in Inakoju v. Adeleke(2007).

Hope you can read the above?

Throwback:


I see what your problem is that is causing your agony.

You love Kanu the riff-raff terrorists who wanted to usurp the constitutional and legitimate leadership that the people of the SouthEast region already have, and considered himself their government who must dictate to them and also dictate to the federal government who must therefore acknowledge him and call him to the table to discuss matters that affect the SouthEast.

The ego of the riff-raff has been deflated and the madness he suffers will soon be exorcised from his being.

Secondly, you are part of the Obidient bandwagon who insist Obi is saint and must be forced down the throat of everyone. You retain your right to criticise other politicians but become terribly upset to the point of insanity, that a mere mortal dare to criticise saint Obi of the beggy-beggy Yes Daddy religious warfare infamy?

You do not dictate what is right or wrong.

Keep all eyes on the judiciary and be accepting of their judicial outcomes which must not always align with your prejudices and delusions.

Your attempt at psychoanalysis is as feeble as your arguments. It's laughable how you project your biases onto others and then proceed to attack them based on your flawed assumptions.

First, your obsession with Kanu and your incessant labeling of him as a terrorist reveals more about your own paranoia and inability to see nuance than anything else. Kanu’s actions and the response to them are far more complex than your simplistic narrative. The situation deserves a more thoughtful discussion than your one-dimensional rants.

Secondly, your fixation on Peter Obi and the so-called "Obidient bandwagon" is equally misguided. Criticism of political figures, including Obi, is valid, but your blanket dismissals and personal attacks show a lack of substance in your arguments. It’s ironic that you accuse others of being upset by criticism when you clearly can’t handle any critique of your own favored politicians without resorting to insults and hyperbole.

You claim to defend the judiciary and democratic principles, yet your comments betray an authoritarian streak, where dissent and differing opinions are not tolerated. Your version of democracy seems to be one where everyone must toe the line and any deviation is met with hostility.

Your inability to engage in a rational, balanced discussion without resorting to baseless accusations and childish name-calling makes it clear that you’re not interested in genuine dialogue. Until you can address issues with facts and respect for differing viewpoints, your arguments will remain shallow and unconvincing.

Grow up and learn that democracy is not about blind loyalty or enforcing a singular narrative. It’s about engaging with diverse perspectives, holding leaders accountable, and fostering an environment where ideas can be debated openly and respectfully.

mastermaestro:

Are you an illiterate? How does a court wake up to annul the outcome of a lawful legislative proceeding? Even though Obaseki did injustice to the guy, his removal duly followed constitutional procedure.

That you compared a mere party primary to the legal outcome of an elected parliament shows how dull you are. You should get better political education.

Nigerian judiciary is now a center of ignominy.

I was referring to a sensible person, not a 5th generation blockhead like you.

Go and get someone to interprete the judgement in your native language maybe or will finally sink into your empty head.

yarimo:
Shuiabu should resume to office immediately, the is victory for democracy

To work under who ?

Does the constitution spell out the work or duties of the deputy apart from what he is instructed to do by the governor ?

If the governor did not instruct him to do anything, can he do it ?

jaxxy:


Shiabu contested and lost. what are u talking about?

He claims he won the actual primary.

That aside, he was impeached just because the Governor believed he had the power to do so.

if you are gainfully engaged you won't have such a precious time to waste by typing this long epistle just to defend those who don't know whether you exist. Or maybe you are one of those on politicians 30k payroll on social media.

tommy589:
Obaseki go gree so

Who is Obaseki in the face of law and federal might? PDP will not find it funny if they try nonsense with shuaibu

maxiuc:
so truly Tinubu controls the courts and he's not an emperor in your eyes isn't it

So a president is incharge of the judiciary

Chai

Take it or leave it an incumbent president has power over the Judiciary anywhere in the world. Why did you think the likes of Putin, Paul kagame of Rwanda and many more are still in power, don't be fooled by the so-called western democracy . And PBAT has not use the Judiciary for his personal gain here but for the victory of democracy

The former deputy governor is only wasting his time. The kangaroo court bought judgement can not stand. A federal court does not have the power to decide what was politically motivated or not. The state house of assembly set up a panel that investigated the former deputy governor, the committee made a recommendation to the state house of assembly, base on their findings, and subsequently impeached the former deputy governor. The court dey whine am. The state government and the state assembly will appeal and drag it on until after the elections. By that time, a new government would be in place. All this nosie from Shaibu will die down.

Hahahahahahaha! @ Like shawarma. You are right sha, this country is full of magic

Throwback:


It is not over, but it is not within the dictatorial powers of the state Governor.

Obaseki can only appeal the judgement at the Appeal Court, which is a federal court.



By the judgement, he was never impeached, so he has resumed immediately.

You are wrong, he can't resume immediately if that judgement is appealed.

LegendHero:


I saw it on GoldmyneTV. Major news outlet will soon update their report with the reason. They all just broke the news without giving details to be the first to break it.

https://x.com/goldmynetv/status/1813534571901890995?s=46

You ought to know that Omotosho is fond of giving his own opinion even in his judgement. The papers are saying he declared that the impeachment was politically motivated. I wonder how that makes any sense to a neutral mind. Anyway, read below subsection 10 and 11 of section 188 which he based his judgement on. See for yourself if a court has the powers to determine what constitutes gross misconduct

Very good one from the judiciary.. executive lawlessness must be curtailed.. let's go to Rivers and see what happens to Fubara and his group of law makers

Throwback:


He claims he won the actual primary.

That aside, he was impeached just because the Governor believed he had the power to do so.

He was impeached by the house for corruption.

press9jatv:
EDHA will appeal the kangaroo judgement reinstating Shaibu. EDHA will win the court of Appeal cos’ they followed the due process in impeaching Shaibu from office.

What is the due process?

Unperturbedpota:
Osa noye agbon kevbe ehinmwin uwese kakabo.
We lead they follow.

Edo State is not Lagos because we are in a league of our own. We are true liberalists and antiballistic.

I don't know why *SIMPS* always compare Lagos with any other states in Nigeria... Lagos no be Una mate, even FCT no fit bro. Remove Benin city from Edo then we have another Benue state so use your brain before comparing Lagos with any state in Africa 💯

Omenlon:
are you deceiving yourself or you are not from Edo State. Lucky igbinedion won his second term election 2003, through rigging after his first term woeful performance. That same Edo, a whole professor of law, Osunbor, rigged his election and was disgraced out of office by the court. So pack well if you don't know anything about Edo politics

That's was then,not now

inusrn:
Stay of execution in 24 hours will be purchased or acquired by Obaseki.

Then in 48 hours the supreme court will affirm Shaibu as the deputy governor. Obaseki never listen to wise counsel. He is not a wise governor. He should have know by now that he is not in good book of Tinubu and he was among the people who orchestrated the removal of Oshiomole as national chairman of Apc then and their main purpose was to stop Tinubu from flying the party presidential ticket. Obaseki is really not a politician. Not every deputy you can messed up. Shaibu remains a son to Oshiomole an ally of Tinubu. Both Oshiomole and Tinubu are fighting him politically and he his not in the good book of the masses because of failed performances. Palace saga is another one again too. Am from same zone with Shaibu but I never supported him to be governor now. I existed the various whatsapp group I was added to promote some candidates from Edo North. I only accepted professor Osunbor Whatsapp group and unfortunately he lost the primaries. Obaseki always believe he knows better than others. Even if he get any judgement to favour his candidate in Benin city, just know that he will lose all in supreme court in Abuja. They set a trap for him, and he just jump into it unknowningly and he got caught.

So that means any judgment from hight court cant be appeal ? Just asking for learning sake , pls educate me.

Throwback:


The judgement is from a federal high court.

No useless state court can do any abracadabra on behalf ofcthe Governor.

Congratulations to my amiable Deputy Govo
