Search for Section 84 of the newly signed electoral Act

EasternActivist:


You mean commencement of primaries!!!?

Nonpartisan1:


Section 84(10) specifically mandated govt appointees to resign their positions 3months before the primaries of their political parties, if they are interested in being a delegate or being voted for.

oluwole4love:
I think the law makes it easier for Tinubu to become President

jimter44:

This section of the new electoral Act is inconsistent with the constitution. The grand law of the land says a person shall resign 30 days to the day of his election. The general election is next year. The government appointees still have many months to stay in the office before they resign.

Can you provide it sir

You may have to consider that it's only recently signed and thus not yet binding

According to the section 84(10) of the new Electoral act recently signed into law, act which any government appointee interested in contesting or voting for any candidate in Party primaries must resign their positions 3 months ahead of such primary elections.

Now according to the recently released INEC time table. Political partiers have between April 4 to June 3, 2022 to conduct their primaries and ensure resolution of disputes from the exercise.

It means, going by the above provisions in the act and INEC time table, any government appointe who may be interested to participate in his or her party primaries and didnt resign by at least March 3rd, 2020 stands disqualified..

Luckytechtv:

He is lying, there is nothing like 3 months there.

Donshegxy10:


they will surely do that, either by themselves or proxy but i dont think they can be successful in challenging the act.

They can also lobby inec to readjust its timetable.

GardenOfGod:
The should resign immediately

switspin:



How do you know Amechi hasnt already resigned, he only has to produce a back-dated resignation letter when the time is right

Jonegonu:
this section of the new act is only dealing with parties convention. And Congress, any government office holder or appointee can stay away from the Congress delegate list
