Speaker elected by 6 members?

Oh, so lawlessness has conscience? Lol. Nigerians. We celebrate what we abhor because it favours us. The country is morally bankrupt, it's been dog-eat-dog but INEC and the judiciary has taken us to another level. The best movies (elections) are yet to start. Grab your popcorn and prepare to watch Bayelsa, Kogi and Imo electoral drama.

Nuheights:
Morality? Mr. Atiku , you are not qualified to talk about it.
Rotational Presidency? If you are so passionate about it, why did you desperately and selfishly, insist on succeeding Buhari? Actions, they say, speak louder than words

Hmmm. So, no comment on the points of law he raised? Nigerians are wonderful people. No wonder politicians believe it's much easier to enslave people than animals. We're talking about strengthening our institutions to guarantee Nigeria's future.

obembet:
Dear Atilu, I am Ur big fans not cos of politics but cos I know u for one good thing u have done before, but U need to understand that This is the country you all built on lies , you all refused to strengthen the institutions and make it independent from the executive , cause you were benefiting from the status quo now a criminal has taken over now he is going to make it hellish, there may never be any party anymore what will win that sit cause you all allow this virus to fester


on 2027 matter, I would have suggest that u just forget about 2027. You will be 82 or so by then. Give it a rest.

Support younger candidate

As usual, you saw no substance in what he said to guarantee the future of this country. When kids born to some of you experience this same political debauchery years to come in a country that's supposed to be progressive, would then would be your consolation at old age? Yes, he has lost, but he made valid recommendations to strengthen our Democratic process. Politics affect lives

BluntCrazeMan:
Some interpretations need to be made by the courts..
That's what I said.
And that's what I am still saying.

This is not a case of taking anyone to court.
This is a case of trying to understand the judgements better.

They think constitutional issues starts and ends with politics. Now, let me help them put things in perspective:
1. Since INEC can do or undo, their electoral guidelines won't be strictly adhered to. Parties won't trust whatever method they decide to use, knowing they have been so empowered to change the rules in the middle of the game, and probably claim glitch
2. Desperate politicians would prefer the approach they can manipulate, hence the RIVERS model will be the new strategy. Stop e-transmission, change figures, damage BVAS, and make the manual collation war-like.
3. Gradually, anything electronic loses value and we're back to 1999.

I can tell you that Prof Yakubu intended many things, but not this brazen validation of
its non-compliance. I am sure INEC wouldn't have mind a reprimand provided the provisions of the constitution and electoral act we're adjudged to be sacrosanct. That wouldn't have still stopped the 'cook-a-technicality' by the judges. Now, we lost the forest just to save one tree. Watch as incumbent governors reverse our electoral fortunes to MANUAL. Since IREV is useless, which incumbent would want a collation that makes recourse to IREV? If they can't shut it down, they'll ensure no valid results are uploaded, and then with the connivance of INEC, blurred CTC will be given to opposition for legal battle. 2023 has sealed our the fate of our electoral system, unless the 2022 ACT is amended.

Naija2023:
Supreme Court considered reading Obi's Appeal a waste of time after giving Judgement to Atiku appeal.

To them, Obi's Appeal was a mere duplication and repetition of Atiku's appeal.

They dismissed it without reading it. They says it lack merit.

The only issue they considered was on double nomination. On that, they said it is of no value to the court and should not have been Presented in the first place.

Ok. So they forgot issue number 4 (forfeiture)? Nothing remotely or otherwise was said about it, and no judgement will be written concerning it. Lol. Nigerians deserve what they get.

Superwave16320:
No wonder your Igbo state are not in a sorry stats they in in paradise state. Every day with brand of foolish Igbo exhibiting foolishness shamelessly.

I'm still laughing. What in your warped mind makes you think everyone who has an opposite stand must be ibo? If you went to school at all, such myopic perception of people calls a lot to question about you. Otherwise, it is coming from a place of hate, which would mean you have to check your mental health. I can never descend so low (you can check my posts).

PS. With folks like you in large numbers, there's no need predicting Nigeria's future.

Nonny95:


Exactly my observation

Lol. Very funny but sad.

donphilopus:
The Supreme Court has dismissed Peter Obi's appeal.

Did anyone notice how they summarily evaded making pronouncements on the drug issue (which they know is a settled law, courtesy of the current CJN?). Guess what, Inyang Okoro (JSC) said they're not writing judgement on it either. Lol, Nigeria is gone.

If you're still proud of Nigeria, your kids will disown you if they read about the atrocities the Nigerian state perpetrated against it's people in 2023

Superwave16320:
No too talk abeg Biafrans n the entire Igbo population are the biggest losers. No wonder they have been wailing profusely but they are free to wail to death one after the other.

Lol. You still don't get the picture. Most Nigerians don't, and that's why the country is in a sorry state. Look at how easy it was for Wike to alter his fate. I dissected the judgement that's why I feel sorry for all ordinary Nigerians.

netpro:


How many of your people did you bury due to hunger?

Guy you better find something productive to do with your life.

Now that Atiku and Obi's distractions are behind us, all that matters now is fixing Nigeria. All hands must be on deck.

Lol. We know children when they speak. Who gives a hoot about PO or AA? If you were half-educated you'd know a society that thrives on illegality has no future.

netpro:
Who are the biggest loser of this year's general election.

MINE

Atiku: This was his best chance. But he was too stubborn to make deals and resolve disagreements.

Obi: Even after losing, he could have still turn his political fortunes around like Jonathan, by quickly congratulating President Tinubu, voice his reservations about the results and ask his supporters to do their best for Nigeria and remain patient for 2027. But no, it is all about emotions and hate.

Psquare: Those one could not hide their hate and tribalist tendencies at all.

Aisha Yusuf, Area Father, etc.

You're obviously in denail if you're resident in, or have people living in Nigeria. If you do, you'd have known the biggest losers.

Burob:
Na the fines we they wait for o.

Make the Atikulated Obidient Agbadorians know much they need to donate.

Guess what, ZERO cost.

I guess we would have to find a way to invest in CCTV in every part of Nigeria self.

My brother, they will invalidate its use in court. The shocker was the word "all".

It is not anticipated for a political party to appoint an octopus agent with tentacles in all polling Units. The witnesses brought by the Appellants can only testify as to issues only in their polling unit and not all units. They ought to have all agents testify and not what they were told because it is hearsay evidence which is not admissible." Iyang Okoro (JSC).

PS: Prof Yakubu was not in all the states of the federation. The lesson is that it would be easier for 1$ to be equal to #1, than for any political party to prove electoral malpractices in a presidential election.

na2016:


You are not serious! Didn't you read of most polling agents almost being killed for not insisting on getting a copy of the result, or for not wanting to sign the doctored result?

Actually, there's no need for banter. The use of technology in our electoral system has been foreclosed, howbeit unwittingly. Which incumbent would not prefer to collate results without recourse to IReV? Don't waste your energy arguing with insane people. The damage has been signed, sealed and delivered, and the people are the casualties.

Okwyjesus:
Case closed.

While this may not be an issue, the IREV IS NOT A COLLATION TOOL is not good for modern democracy.

"It is my well-considered opinion that the failure to transmit results to the IReV did not affect the election and this issue is resolved AGAINST THE APPELLANT" --- Inyang Okoro (JSC) 2023

I hope Agbadorians are taking note, so that they don't wail tomorrow. I surely know our desperate politicians are taking notes

Estello:
IREV Portal Is not a tool for collation- Supreme court

If INEC portal stops, it does not stop the collation

The non-function of IREV might reduce voter confidence

Justice Okoro Also said INEC has the right to choose the form in which they want to transmit results

"It is my well-considered opinion that the failure to transmit results to the IReV did not affect the election and this issue is resolved AGAINST RHE APPELLANT" --- Inyang Okoro (JSC) 2023

I hope Agbadorians are taking note, so that they don't wail tomorrow. I surely know our desperate politicians are taking notes

nairalanda1:
Hmm, so why did we waste money on it then?

To forestall future investment in election technologies, or at least acceptance of them. They just don't know it yet.

DaTruths:
Nigeria is under Siege.

Fasten your seatbelt, because it's gonna be a rough ride.

Tinubu is the worst thing to happen to an average Nigerian.

"The Appellants ought to prove their case of disqualification within the 180 days prescribed at the lower court. Consequently, since the lower court has no jurisdiction to entertain this matter, it follows that this (supreme) court equally do not have the jurisdiction to entertain same." Inyang Okoro (JSC) 2023

PS: Supreme court has bo jurisdiction to resolve issues if forgery which they affirmed was criminal. Win #1 for Agbadorians (den of criminals

saintbillion:
Which side is Wike?

Definitely not your side, or the side of those standing on mandate or chanting new Nigeria is POssible. Don't worry, it takes an abstract level of thoughts to decode that.

After today, I believe everyone's problems, as well as those of their kinsmen would be solved. Obidients would know how to channel their energy, Atikulators would take solace in the fact that AA gave BAT a bloody nose. Agbadorians would continue to enjoy Renewed hope. If the new Nigeria doesn't favour you, sorry.

The Supreme Court has fixed Thursday for the judgment on the appeals by the presidential candidates of the Peoples Democratic Party, Atiku Abubakar, and the Labour Party, Peter Obi, respectively.

The duo is praying the apex court to set aside the judgment by the presidential election tribunal which affirmed the election of President Bola Tinubu.

The Supreme Court’s Director of Information, Dr. Festus Akande, in a telephone call on Wednesday told our correspondent that the judgment on the appeals had been scheduled for tomorrow.

He said, “Tomorrow, Thursday, has been fixed for the judgment on the appeals brought by Atiku and Peter Obi.”

Lol. I will say it again.
The Nigeria they're cooking will be enjoyed by everyone who is unfortunate to either remain or raise kids in it. We will not know today, the extent of the damage state capture can do to a man who has no MEANS. Eyes will clear.

See them insulting themselves. Unless this generation choses not to procreate or do so outside the shores of Nigeria, your kids will enjoy the Nigeria that is currently being shaped. Guess what, the elites' kids won't be here to share their fate. The fabric of our society is being ripped apart by powerful men, and the unfortunate peasants are laying the foundation of a failed state for their kids unwittingly. What's Nigeria's national value as of today? America's is freedom, Britain's is security, what's ours?

accordadoga29:
Hehehehe

Nigeria will continue to exist but Biafra will never exist

Even the fourth generation after our generation will not allow Biafra to exist.

We are the colonial masters

See this one dodging the question.
The Nigeria that will exist by then, would be one your children will enjoy like you're enjoying now, say a loud amen!

The Nigeria most people are unfortunately helping amoral people to create today will be 'enjoyed' by their children and grand children. Time will distinguish the foolish among us from the wise.

Timothy89:



I don't know why they can't let this mud region go already, this tribe are big problem to this country

Foolishness is when you confidently averr that the 6 million votes PO got, came from the 'mud region', and that only those from the supposed region have a phone with Internet access. You guys won't realize how stupid politics of tribalism has made you. It is eating deep into your essence in a way that's rendering your education useless. Education is supposed to mean enlightenment. Go check what it means to be enlightened.

Nigerians. People who have never stood up for anything can't comprehend the cost. Go to the dark Web for example, and get things for free. Ordinary articles require paid subscription to access them. Obviously, many do not know what investigative journalism is. I'm even surprised he's not being 'bankrolled' as some myopic folks would have been quick to assert.

chenny360:
I'm pro Tinubu so far but all the rulings. and judgement ain't pure. Some of the judgement in favor of Apc shouldn't have being in a corrupt free society. But we're In Nigeria where majorities of shitty things goes.
Highest bidder if I must say...
Nobody holy pass.

For the first time, someone who understands and see beyond the temporal. My major gross with the judgement is how INEC got away with the travesty. If that issue becomes law, our electoral jurisprudence is gone for good. What does this mean?

God forbid BAT fails to perform, people would naturally yearn for a change. However, when the institutions that could guarantee that has been compromised, what then would be the fate the common man, especially those celebrating it today? It means Nigeria would be condemned to never function, it will be an endless cycle of impunity (cash-and-carry politics). By then, no amount of patriotism would stop the brightest of us from jumping ship in larger numbers, even if to African countries.

If one must be tribalistic or parochial, never joke with injustice because it comes around in full cycle.

TemitayoMark:
I would personally advice Mr OBI to take to this man advice because his supporters had already destroyed his chances of getting a win at the SC. Remembered that they already threatened the CJ way back when they claimed he went to the UK in wheelchair to collect bribe from Tinubu. So they are going to meet that same man at the SC. There is a lesson to learn from this that don't just accuse someone anyhow without evidence because that person might still be your only way to the top. Obidients, are you guys going to learn at all? I guess not.

Story, story story. The diagnosis must be comprehensive. What are you afraid of, that the SC will consolidate criminality? We are okay with that, at least there will no more assumptions about why Nigeria remains in shackles. Maybe you should follow America politics more to understand what solid institutions mean. So, if you drag a SC justice, he will then pervert justice? See your mentality.
