Nothing can help Tinubu and APC

So for saying 25% in FCT is not a compulsory prerequisite...you people need help

Mtchew..

falana is 100 mile ahead of mike

Reinaldo:
Nothing can help Tinubu and APC

Absolutely nothing


INEC only ended up handing Tinubu a poisoned chalice

Femi Falana SAN was part and parcel of NADECO struggle that Tinubu co sponsored with Abiola MKO

Me thinks Falana talks too much.

Whenever you see a young man dancing naked in the market square, just know that his father is someone around beating the drums.

Falana guy talks from both side of his mouth, he is a human right lawyer

Falana lost his voice since Buhari became president.

Ozekhome where Falana dey. Who dash monkey banana. Who is ozekhome? Moat and erosion lawyer.

They shall come against us in one way but they shall be scattered in seven ways

Falana is supposed to be the LP lead lawyer being in long term retainership with the Party.

I thank God that Obi did not allow him to take up this case otherwise he would bungled it due to inert tribalism in him.

Obi is right after all by choosing Ikpeazu instead of this so called “legal luminary” and pretentious SAN.

He was the one that surreptitious gave the INEC Chairman the needed legal backing with his public utterances which made him to announce the winner without first seeking clarification on the position of the law concerning Abuja.

Since Falana actually provided very clear arguments to buttress his point, the YouTube-trained lawyer speaking in this video should have done the same instead of anchoring his views on whataboutery.

Section 299(1) of the Constitution provides that the provisions of the Constitution shall apply to the Federal Capital Territory as if it were one of the states of the Federation. It means that the FCT is the 37th state.

So section 134 of the Constitution which provides that “not less than one-quarter of the votes cast at the election in EACH of at least two-thirds of ALL THE STATES AND the FCT” means 25 states or 24 states plus the FCT. Winning the FCT by a candidate is not compulsory.

In BABA-PANYA V. PRESIDENT, F. R. N. (2018) 15 NWLR (PT. 1643) 395 the Court of Appeal held inter alia:

“It is therefore doubtless clear that by virtue of Section 299 of the Constitution of the Federation, the Federal Capital Territory is in law a State. In others words the Federal Capital Territory should be treated as one of the States in the Federal Republic of Nigeria. It follows therefore that bodies like the Federal Capital Development Authority are to be regarded an agency of “a State” independent of the Federal Government. It would appear that the only relationship existing between the Federal Government and the Federal Capital Territory is that its executive and legislative powers and duties are exercised for it by the President through the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory and the National Assembly respectively. From the provision of Section 299(a), where the President through the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory Acts, he does so as a Governor of a State, so also where the National Assembly legislates for Abuja it does so as a State House of Assembly.”

Thus by the combined effect of sections 134 and 299 of the Constitution, a candidate shall be deemed to have won the presidential election if he scores the majority of lawful votes cast at the election and 25 percent of lawful votes in 37 states or 36 states plus the FCT. It is not compulsory for a presidential candidate to win the FCT.

The FCT is not an electoral college that must be won before a President can emerge.

Another Ipob propaganda...


Keep labouring in vain...while the sworning in date approaching...

Femi Falana is the father of Falz, respect him foolish blogger, you do not know the sacrifice they haveade for the cointry.

The same falana that has obi to get his term fully rather than completing a years left from ngige

Well am a proud obidient. FALANA doesn't know everything. EVEN he makes mistakes plus hes not a judge.

I have said it time and time again that Falana is not well versed in constitutional law.
As an experienced human right lawyer, He looks at every thing with the human right lens( the very reason He lost the ASUU strike case against FG) .
From the human right angle, Nigerians in FCT do not have two heads than Nigerians in other states
However, a whole lot of things are involved in constitution making beyond the literal interpretation.
The "and the FCT" clause in the constitution has a purpose which constitutional lawyers only understand.

Falz please restrain ya pops

Nairaland Lawyer, Prof Itse Sagay does not know constitutional law too?

However, Prof Itse Sagay, a renowned legal luminary, in a telephone chat with Sunday Sun on the matter, dismissed the argument as ridiculous, unnecessary, and unfounded. Hear him: “I think that is laughable. What is the significance of Abuja that any candidate has to score 25 per cent before he can win the presidency? That is ridiculous. As far as the Constitution is concerned, Abuja is regarded as a state. And to that extent, the argument has no merit at all. Why should winning 25 per cent in Abuja be more important than winning 25 per cent in Kebbi or Lagos? That is a ridiculous interpretation of the Constitution,”

“The Constitution makes it clear from the beginning that the Federal Capital Territory is like a state, not a city. That is why it has its own minister. If you add FCT to 36 states, the judgment will be on 37. What this means is that if you have 2/3 in 23 states and the FCT, your 24-state requirement has already been fulfilled. In other words, FCT would be counted as a state.

“You will notice that all the people propounding this crazy strange theory are all people who are lawyers either to PDP or Labour Party. They are looking for straw to hold on to. You don’t need a strong legal mind to appreciate the interpretation of the law on this issue of Abuja.”

I told you, nobody should trust a Yoruba man.
Even Buhari should get prepared if tinubu get this power.
If you want to live long don't trust a Yoruba man.

#Bigotry makes an appearance in human form.

FCT (like Lagos) is a melting point of ALL NIGERIANS, Idoma, Tivs, Yorubas, Igbos, Igalas, Efiks, Ogoja Pple, Edos, etc..🙁

So a real Presidential Candidate should not be FAILING WOEFULLY in such a place.

Tinubu cannot use Yobe, Kebbi, Zamfara, Sokoto and Jigawa, votes to rule Nigerians.

Falana is a snake

DaddyJapan:

tinubu is the worst bigot in the history of this country. How can a reasonable human being ignore the millions of Christian in this country and go for a Muslim Muslim ticket?
He has shown his dislike for Christian since 2007.
Atiku refused him in 2007
Buhari refused him in 2014.
Now tell me between tinubu and your father who is the worst bigot.

He say na Ezehkome. Foolish akpu pig. Nothing wey una sabi.

But Obi wants to use Nnewi and Onitsha votes to rule Nigerians.

No wonder them dey slap una mama during elections in Lagos.

Falana is a tribal SAN, even if FCT is a state which it is not, state must have Governor etc, the law says one must score 25%.
