So who is now in charge of Ebonyi state? All these sudden developments will all still end in praise to God for the Asiwaju Tinubu victory at the Presidential poll. On the mandate of Asiwaju Tinubu I stand. Please support and vote for Asiwaju Tinubu. Only patriotic Nigerians whose hearts are not filled with hatred, bitterness and bigotry are on board the BAT 2023 winning train. Please join the team of Nigerian patriots. Thank you. |

No wonder the amended electoral act was incredibly silent about this important issue of indiscriminate political defections and abuse of mandate. |
Re: BREAKING: Court Sacks 15 Ebonyi Lawmakers Over Defection To APC by FreeStuffsNG: 3:22pm On Mar 08, 2022 |
fergie001: Sir, why not let us all wait for the details of the judgement from the court He could turn out right you know. In law, 1+1 is not always 2 you know. |

fergie001: They will drag the case till next year before the final Supreme Court judgement is delivered. |

FreeStuffsNG:There is a precedence for lawmakers. The SC has ruled on a similar issue. It is clear from 68(1)g of the 1999 CFRN. Lawmakers across board (States or National Assembly) lose their seats on defection unless there is a division in the National hierarchy of their political parties. It was silent on Govs, Deputy-Govs, President & Vice President. Their only grace here is that the issue will drag until their terms are over. |
Re: BREAKING: Court Sacks 15 Ebonyi Lawmakers Over Defection To APC by FreeStuffsNG: 3:27pm On Mar 08, 2022 |
fergie001:Before 8pm tonight, we should get the details. I am sure the judge considered this precedence yet made no such dichotomy in his decision to sack them all |
Re: BREAKING: Court Sacks 15 Ebonyi Lawmakers Over Defection To APC by fergie001: 3:28pm On Mar 08, 2022 |
FreeStuffsNG:You are infusing an unrelatable dichotomy here. The Gov/Deputy-Gov will stay. Please help read Abegunde v Ondo House of Assembly. |
Re: BREAKING: Court Sacks 15 Ebonyi Lawmakers Over Defection To APC by FreeStuffsNG: 3:29pm On Mar 08, 2022 |
fergie001:Okay sir. Just if I may ask, have you seen and read the details of this particular judgement by His Lordship Justice Ekwo ? |

seunmsg:Don't allow yourself to sound dumb... A court of competent jurisdiction has delivered a verdict which can only be overturned on technical nay political considerations. On what grounds are you saying otherwise? If the cabal do not call Tanko on this matter, Umahi is a dead man walking... Umahi certainly has a prima facie case to try to wriggle out from... 1 Like |

seunmsg:That is where their grace come in. It is not pre-election, so there is no need to rush anything. Any moment from now primaries will begin and cases will begin to fly left, right and centre. Before Appeal and then Supreme Court will sit, we are in 2023. |

There is no provision in the Constitution of Nigeria whereby a serving Governor or his Deputy could be removed on account of defection to another political party. |

sharpden: If Umahi goes to his office tomorrow and performs the functions of his office as a Governor, he will be acting in illegality vis- sa-vis a valid and a subsisting Court Judgment to the contrary. Except he has file an appeal to the judgment, which I doubt. |
