Who will give the LGs allocation for an election conducted in defiance of court orders?

The CTCs have been sitting under the mango trees, let the comedians who call themselves Chairmen and participated in Saturday's comedy show join them there. In the alternative, they can be operating from Chicken Republic in Port Harcourt.

The LG Secretariats will remain locked.

Wike was in charge of his government because everyone that assisted him was carried along. He never reneged in whatever agreement reached with interested parties including Patience Jonathan.
Tell Fubara to honour agreement he entered before becoming the governor. He hadn't money to sponsor himself. He hadn't the capacity to contest. Wike chose him for a purpose which he accepted.
He won't win in this . Inam sure of that. I am also not sure Wike will win but definitely Fubara won't win.
Honor which agreement?

If they are not happy with the outcome of the elections, they should go to court and remain there.

The matter will be pursued till supreme court, by that time enough allocations must have come in for the next elections.

Who will release allocation to LGs with pending court case? I pray they win at court otherwise no allocation until another elections is conducted.

Which Tribunal? They are not challenging the results. They are challenging the validity of the election with regards to the FHC Judgement.

The state govt appealed the matter, so make we dey see.

The strong statement that INEC made with regards to the Voters Register is one that must be considered also.

LGAs allocation will be continously released pending the determination of the suit. Just like the case of governorship and presidential elections, allocations keep flowing pending determination of suit.

Ok but remember the LG autonomy has not being fully implemented. If funds is to be send directly to the 774 constitutionally elected chairmen, are they to be recognised. State takes funds directly before now. Anyway.

Wike supporters will now turn to judicial commentators, they will know names of all corrupt Judges in Abuja, such as: lifu, omotosho etc. lifu need to go back to nursery school for him to know the meaning of jurisdiction.

The state government didn't appeal anything, they only asked for stay of execution of the order of the FHC, and the appeal court declined it. So, they have to go back to the FHC for the main suit. However, the suit has been overtaken by event as at today. The election has been conducted and the Rivers State government and RSIEC won't be needed the voters' register and the police and DSS any more for the election. Taking to consideration, the court never said election should not hold.
The only issue here now is, if sizeable number of people per ward can come out and claim that were disenfranchised because their names were not in the voters' register and they didn't vote, then, the election may be voided at the tribunal.
As at today, the order of the FHC were obeyed because INEC claimed they didn't give RSIEC 2023 voters' register and police said they didn't provide security for the election.
The only big issue here is the voters' register but large voters must come out to claim they were disenfranchised. Police giving security coverage during election is not a compulsion constitutionally.

No local government allocation would be seized because of court case. The supreme court had said in a landmark case between FG vs LSG, that the generality of the people cannot be punish because of few in a case of federal government seizing Lagos State LGA allocations.
President, governors and legislators are sworn in and receiving allocation and salaries and they will still be having pending cases in the court.

My friend, your analysis is flawed on many angles.

The legal question is 'Was the election conducted with due compliance to the laid down rules?"

Only the court can interpret this.

Again, what are they going back to the FHC for? That was a judgement and not an interlocutory ruling. What you do is simply to go on appeal.

Finally, you should understand that a stay of execution is one of the interim orders pending an appeal. In other words, it doesn't stand alone and must be accompanied by an appeal proper.

It is mainly used in issues where the res (property) is in issue. If Mr. A wins Mr. B in court over a land dispute, Mr. B will go on appeal and apply for a stay of execution to refrain Mr. A from selling the land since the earlier court by virtue of a declaration made him the bonafide owner.

I'm glad you said the COA didn't grant that order. So how on earth did they give the ruling without an appeal? The case is at the COA as we speak.

Graçias!

Mr. Man, if an election wasn't conducted by the laid down rules, do you go to FHC or tribunal that adjudicate on election matters?
Any flaw in an election, you go through a tribunal set up for the purpose and not FHC.
No doubt I just confirmed that order was a ruling of the FHC. I thought it was just an interlocutory injunction.

But the big question I want you to sincerely answer is, did the ruling says election should not be conducted?
The ruling or the order was very much emphatic.
INEC to give RSIEC 2023 voters' register
Police and DSS don't provide security for the election.
There was no portion of the order that says RSIEC don't conduct the election.
Now, if INEC didn't give RSIEC voters' register and they have their own voters' register that can be rely on, does that invalidate the election. Except you wish to tell the world that RSIEC is under INEC and cannot do their statutory duty without INEC's voters' register. If you claim, please quote the section of the constitution that says so.

Chief! You must understand ooooh.
You're just speaking plenty grammar.

What is being challenged is not the result of the election but the process that led to the election.

There is pre-election and post-election matter, oga. You only approach a tribunal when you're contesting the result.

The FHC matter was instituted before the election. It has no business with the result.

Know the difference abeg!😂

I am aware of pre-election matter but your claim of flaw in the election was what made me to to say, if there were flaws in an election, you go through the normal channel. The grouse of the case, if in a normal setting where rule of law is paramount and the judiciary are up to their game, if the petitioner goes back to the court, the judge would give an order that the suit has been overtaken by events because the judge did not say don't conduct election.
