The state assembly had already done that before the judgement came.This judgement is to further confirm it's legality.

Which state assembly, the case that was thrown out by the appeal courts and they didn't Appeal to the supreme Court, which the time for appeal has passed, drag them to the office 😂

What are you appealing when the supreme court has given judgement on the same issue?

Your exertions are true.

However, wike and his marauders should perish whatever ideas they may be having as regards this news.

You see, I have no horse in the race between Wike and SIM because they're the same person.

After 8yrs, WIKE did nothing to develop ONELGA that contributes a huge chunk to the oil money he's lavishing and stealing. He had to do a road from Ahoada which SIM is now completing after destabilising the region. SIM wasn't even supposed to get the ticket in the first place but he wanted a partner I'm crime to cover his tracks and now he's crying fowl.

He should go and rest.

Without a constitutional amendment, the supreme court just succeeded in engaging in an academic exercise.

There must be a clear intention to abolish the joint account between the LGAs and State governments.

When the constitution has clearly stated the constitution to be 3yrs, the supreme court can't do otherwise.

These are matters that only a constitutional amendment can take care of and not a court ruling...

Lie from the pit of hell. Nwanosike has done nothing in this Obiakpor LGA.Let him go with his loots. LG chairmen are thieves,
shut up Nwanosike was never chairman of obio Akpor, I just know you are an Igbo man, you people talk about things that do not concern you, How would you know what Nwanosike did as chairman if you do not know the name of the LGA he governed?

no it doesn't cover them. Already Appeal court has concluded the matter and said it was Politically motivated and thereby ordered them out

So what will happen? For Wike's cronies to gang up and suffocate him? Well elections will take place on Oct 6th and none of the allies of the man you're sucking his balls is gonna near it.

Wike turned a Hitler for 8yrs and everyone ketp shut. He's time has passed, he should leave Rivers State alone. Everyone that came before him left but he wants to hold the State to ransom after stealing billions? He should go and touch grass. He's lucky SIM isn't his type of politician and don't worry SIM will complete his 8yrs, Ikwerre man will not smell that seat for the foreseeable future.

You are just a bittered loser. Fubala wi soon dump you a s s and join Wike in a matter off time then idiot like you that lack political understanding will be shamed outrageously.

Your sorrow just started you will cy taya.

Nonsense!!!

Your pain just started.

Yes bro. We warned Fubala to slow down politics is not okrika business.
The judgement here refers to council chairmen elected properly in accordance with the constitution n not what happened in Rivers State under wike,were the chairmen elected to serve for four years?,if true then there shouldn't have been any tenure extension in the first place!,the chairmen are only been clever by half,or will they now continue for four years?,did they went to court to fight for a four year tenure?, courts don't dash judgements,the judgment here is not related to them,let them simply move on please.

And the case before the court was extension of LG chairman tenures, that the state assembly doesn't have the right to extend the tenures of council chairman, that was not the case before the court, so get your facts right before coming on a public space

Na waooo but supreme court has told you that state assemblies can extend tenure,so the assembly is right on track.The chairmen were duly elected, in the absence of election, their tenure was extended because caretaker chairman is illegal.
Supreme court ruled that tenure extended is the rightful mandate of the people that was extended.

Ikaeniyan0:
They don't have immunity
With the careless way the Supreme Court came up with this particular pronoun cement, who says they can't get immunity tacked to the office of LG soon? undecided

By the way, the immunity clause only applies as far as the individual is in office. There is no reason why the people can not call for the impeachment of a governor of a president and then have him or her prosecuted for crimes committed against the people right after that. Look for instance at the earlier case against Alamiyeshega in Bayelsa case during the obasanjo administration.
