seunmsg:The useless Appeal court judgement will be given by an APC judge. You called out Wike, and also the FHC Justice but you turned a blind eye to the statement of the foolish governor who insulted the judge, partisan politics has blinded you. Well done! 5 Likes |

Agbegbaorogboye: The judgment is good facially,morally and progressively but unfortunately,it is illegal and unconstitutional...what is clearly not provided in the constitution cannot be interpreted upon.if the drafters intended it so,they would have clearly added governors and presidents after all they dedicated two sections for lawmakers.why omit the executive? Probably because of immunity.several precedents abound of morally good judgments that were struck out for not being covered by our laws. 3 Likes |

Wike should sit down and stop making excessive noise. Haba! Na only him waka come? It's not PMB or Amaechi or Tinubu or Obaseki/Shuiabu. It's now Umahi. And by the way, on a head to head basis especially considering the resources available to both states, Umahi will easily floor him in terms of performance. Abeg he should focus on what his people voted him to do. 1 Like |

Agbegbaorogboye: Lol at the part in bold. Arlen Spectre was a US Senator for about 30 years. He was elected a Republican and later defected to the Democratic Party in 2009. Joe Lieberman lost his re-election bid in 2006 and left the Democratic Party to contest as the candidate of a third party called “Connecticut for Lieberman”. Both of them were serving senators when they ditched their parties and never lost their seats. 4 Likes 1 Share |

seunmsg: Lieberman caucused as a Democrat all through his stay in the Senate. "Connecticut for Lieberman" na Republican Party to you abi? Arlen Spectre you're talking about defected to run as a Democrat in a fresh election. Not that he defected after winning as a Republican. That is different. So in this two cases, you're definitely wrong 17 Likes 1 Share |

seunmsg:Can't u see what u wrote here is stark opp of what we r arguing about? Umahi defected after winning an election. Umahi's case is different from obaseki, samuel ortom et al.. Those ones defected during electioneering period cos they sensed their various parties wouldn't clear them or support them. Umahi defected immediately he won reelection. What stopped him from defecting before 2019 election to APC n contest? I mostly thought u were intelligent but i now know u r just like ur principal. Between u and malami and buhari, don't know who is more sensible... 10 Likes 2 Shares |

Agbegbaorogboye: We once debated this and you concurred with me. There is nothing that stops a fourth place wl from winning a case.thee first runner up was disqualified.The second runner up based his case on electoral malpractices which is very difficult to prove and he failed.uzodinma based his case on wrongful collation which is easier to prove.he simply provided his party copies of results which tallied with the ones the police have.inec and PDP could not provide their own copy and failed to back up any of their allegations as demanded by the evidence and electoral act...he simply outsmarted them and the court had no choice than to declare him winner.what is so hard here to understand 1 Like 1 Share |

Agbegbaorogboye: No sir.you cannot back it up with any law be it constitution,electoral act,evidence act or interpretation act.even judicial precedents like atiku vs obj 2007,inec vs acn 2012,nwanakwo vs inec 2019 supports umahi.you cannot build something on nothing....you cannot build legalities on moralities...in the recent case between states vs fg,the apex court agreed that order 10 is good and nice but inherently illegal except via nass amendment.better leave this matter 2 Likes |

Agbegbaorogboye: Now, you really need to stop lying. Lieberman was an incumbent senator when he lost his re-election bid at the Democratic primary election. He resigned from the party and contested on the platform of another party without losing his seat. Whether the party is Connecticut for Lieberman or Republican Party doesn’t change the fact that he left the party that got him elected and joined another party. Arlen Spectre was an incumbent Republican senator for 30 years. He was an incumbent senator elected on the platform of Republican Party when he defected to the Democratic Party in 2009. He did not lose his seat when he decamped. 1 Like |

garfield1:Are you more knowledgeable than Justice Ekwo on this matter? The good Daniel has come to judgement. The judgement stands until a superior court says otherwise. The valid votes belong to the party. Umahi's name was not on the ballot. It was PDP's umbrella that was there. He should return the seat to the rightful owners as the Constitution says. 5 Likes 1 Share |

seunmsg: Lieberman still caucused as a Democrat. Is that hard for you to understand. He basically ran as an Independent Democrat. Connecticut for Lieberman was never really a party. As For Spectre. He resigned to run for another term as a democrat just as Ortom did. What I asked is a member of congress who crossed from Democratic to Republican not a democrat who ran as a Republican in the next election. You are basically getting things mixed up. That's a pity 11 Likes 1 Share |

Agbegbaorogboye: Lol, you really think you can muddle things up with me, right ? Guy, stop playing around with words. Defection is defection. There is no sugarcoating it. Spectre defected from the Republican Party to the Democratic Party in 2009 and HE DID NO LOSE HIS SENATE SEAT. He lost re-election in 2010 but remained a senator till 2011. So, what’s there to argue blindly about? Elected politicians defect all over the world without losing their offices and I have given you very recent examples in the United States. Nigeria cannot be an exemption. Umahi will remain the governor of Ebonyi till 2023 and there absolutely nothing any of you PDP wailers can do about it. 2 Likes 2 Shares |

seunmsg: Atiku's case was different. OBJ "sacked" Atiku when the latter defected to the then Action Congress. So Atiku went to court to challenge the sack. PDP didn't take Atiku to court. It was Atiku that went to court. It is up to the lawyers to prove their mettle in the appeal. It is still open to both camps. |
