CommonSense1967: The case was in court and by previous court proceedings, they all will lose their seats. Fubara withdrew the case for peace. The case will be reactivated and they will all go. 1 Like |

Confirmedzombie: I think you should ask questions before bringing your ignorant self out. He has 100% power to short the state assembly down on the ground if this political crisis. Iv not seen where an ordinary commissional hides information from the government because he pleasing one nonsense master that thinks he is bigger than the state. The state assembly makes appointment and clear the appointed person and forced on the governor. That's rubbish of the highest order. You guys should continue to be dummy to your master. One thing that is sure, you will all be disgraced including your master. |

oluwaahmed: They stated their course of defection, "Secretary position of the national party." Now, the pdp is the only body to tell the court that their was no issue in the party in regard with the position. Anyways, let's wait and see. |

Does he as a governor have the power to declare an assembly non-existent? The answer is no...Only a court of competent jurisdiction have the power to so pronounced a state assembly non-existent. And this country that we are,it can never happen.So the governor should trade with caution,as he doesn't have the constitutional power to declare a state assembly non-existent |

Whalis:Even after the man had quoted relevant section of the constitution on what constitutes defection and the consequence of defection. That you go on the floor of the Senate or house assembly to declare that you have defected or what have you, is just a sign of senate or house assembly protocol and not written in the Nigeria constitution or any extant law. If the defector has written to his party and verbally declared same, the defection protocol has completed and can be tender in evidence. |
Re: Rivers Assembly Is Non-existent to Me, Peace Accord not binding - Fubara by IfnobeGod20: 10:05am On May 07 |
Didi2d:A state of emergency cannot just be declared, it all depends on the magnitude of the unrest in the state. Meanwhile, the supreme court had adjudicated that declaring of state of emergency does not affect the constituted authority. Those ones OBJ did during his time was unconstitutional and against every letters of the law of our land. State of emergency only empowers the president to draft in military presence into affected areas and not to unseat a constituted authority. Confirm! 2 Likes |

marksonrick:The non existence of the post of secretary does not render a party non-existent. For a party to be non-existent, all their daily routine must be paralyzed and a division must be visible, with both entities functioning independently. As it is, at the time they defected the PDP was still sponsoring candidates for elections and still meeting her statutory functions and no division on record. This issue is liken to a company with 10 directors, if one director is dead, does that render the company non-functional? Or in a school where the VP academy is no more, does that make the school to close down? |

IfnobeGod20:Now the lawmakers in question have they written to their party? |
Re: Rivers Assembly Is Non-existent to Me, Peace Accord not binding - Fubara by IfnobeGod20: 10:30am On May 07 |
yemex04:You're not different from those you're maligning. That a division occured at the state level of the party, that doesn't give right to defection, so say the supreme court. Supreme court had said, a defection is only allowed if the division happened at the national headquarters of the party. They gave a germane scenario. That if a branch of a bank closed down in any state, they asked, doesn't close down its headquarters? Meaning any division that happen in any state party does not affect the overall party organ. No doubt, the court of law need to give effect to defection done by any lawmaker but nothing concerning the speaker of the house to give effect to any defection. It's just a sign of house protocol and no more. If the court can pronounce that they lost their seat because they defected, they have no right to enter the hallowed chamber again. It left for the police and other security agencies to give effect to the court pronouncement. Lobatan! |

[color=#000099][/color] PressMyButton: In it current form, the federal constitution does not recognize members of Rivers State House of Assembly neither has any competent court of law made pronouncement on their status; invariably they owe their existence to the recognition accorded them by the chief executive. |

IfnobeGod20:it's not up to you or the drunk ingrate to decide if their reasons for defection is valid or not, leave that to the courts. Everyday you hypocrites cry about the state of affairs in Nigeria but when people you support go out of the line to perpetuate illegality, you applaud them? Who is deceiving who? I have said that there is nothing like a good Nigerian including the hypocrites criticising successive governments, Nigeria is never making it out of the trenches. |
Re: Rivers Assembly Is Non-existent to Me, Peace Accord not binding - Fubara by vanitybutiwanti: 11:09am On May 07 |
TYCO77:you're wrong and you're a kid, they gave reasons for defection, in the constitution there is a clause that permits defection and the lawmakers acted on that premise, now is it up to a drunk man to proclaim that their reasons for defection is valid or a court of competent Jurisdiction? The problem with the bulk of you, you're allowing your emotions to obscure your sense of judgements. |

Wickedfacts:Sorry Mr. Man, any impeachment not carried out in the constituted place is null and void. There is a designated place where the business of the House should be carry out, except there is a cogent reason they must move their sitting to another chosen place. If for example, there's need to renovate the house, fumigate the house, repair broken furnitures or any important assignment to be done that must take them away from the designated meeting place. Again, impeachment is not a one way traffic. It involves many procedure. One, they must officially write the governor, that is, notify the governor of his offence. Two, they must request the state Chief Justice to constitute a committee of inquiry to investigate the infractions so noted. In this one, the representative of the house must be present, the governor must be present during sitting. Three, the committee will later write to house of their findings and also give recommendations on their findings. Four: the house will later seat to deliberate on the committee's findings and later pass into vote whether the recommendations should be adopted or not. Hope you have seen that is not a tea party to impeach a sitting governor. Any breached of any of these procedures render the impeachment null and void, aside using non designated place. Meanwhile, if someone cannot win election himself, should he also be subjected to the apron spring of those that helped him win election? That he should not breathe freely, except he is dictated to. Please who do us this in this country, that we give life to what we ought not to give life to. No doubt it is good to appreciate those that helped us but those that helped us should not make themselves look like God, because they can never be one. Besides, those Tinubu's deputies you mentioned are not governors but deputies. They don't control state macenery, so it is easier to boot deputy governor out but not easy to do that for a governor. With all the games against Ambode were they able to get him through impeachment? Governor controls some level of powers that cannot be bought. If those lawmakers want to try their luck, they should just try and want to initiate impeachment against Fubara and come and see firework against them. 3 Likes 2 Shares |

Whalis:See the way you just confused people. Constitutionally, they need not write to the house if they defected. Writing to the house is just a house protocol. Or you wish to show me a portion of the constitution where such was stated? If the lawmakers either write to their wards or political party or their antiparty activities can be recorded, that is all needed and not what happened at the hallowed chamber. Please stop confusing unsuspecting nairalanders that liked and shared your comment. I won't say much about those in court because such has not happened before that members of the party will be the one suing and not the party. I will wait to hear from the judge handling the case, if members of a political party can sue and claim their defection really affected them. I will keep tab. Mr. Man, impeachment is not a tea party, especially against a sitting governor. There are procedure to follow. I can tell you those lawmakers will be chase out of the city if they dare try that. 1 Like |

vanitybutiwanti:Are you different from those you're maligning? You're not. You cannot indirectly supporting godfatherism and in another breadth condemning those that says or against godfatherism. You're hypocrite and your hypocrisy is of degree one. Mr. Man, everyone cannot be zombie like you that pays obeisance to your killer, since you don't know your left from your right. It's never today people help others. Rendering of helps will continue till kingdom comes. Someone helped Wike to be governor and not only governor. Even chairman of his local government. Some one helped him to be chief of staff. Someone helped him to be minister. No one is immune from help. Today Jonathan and his wife that helped Wike, they are not in good term with him. What of Peter Odili and his wife? They are not in good term with him today. Please must you always have your way all the time? Wike is not God and you people should not see him as one. Everyone that has been of help to him in one way or the other, he has fought with them. Didn't he fought Rotimi Amaechi also? This country can not move forward with your kind that always think myopically to support politicians. You need not suspend your God given IQ when supporting them. |

favor914:That he signed it, doesn't make it binding on him because it is just a political solution and not a constitutional solution. Again, he said, he did it out of respect for president Tinubu but he discovered the other people are not ready for peace. They still want to control everything. Also remember, Tinubu and Fubara doesn't belong to the same political party. No part of the constitution empowers president to dabble into political issue of another party. That guidelines he signed in the eye of the law is null and void. |

IfnobeGod20:To add to what you said, the law did not provide that only the party organ can sue. ANY of their constituents can sue them for defection as well. If those recalcitrant law makers attempt any impeachment, they will lose those seats and that's if they even see anywhere to seat in Rivers State to conduct their impeachment. I don't even understand some morons supporting those lawmakers because of Wike. While Fubara and Wike all have their selfish conducts, it is only in a fools republic people will be outwardly supporting a commissioner that is outwardly showing his allegiance to someone that is not in government while working under a current governor. How can an assembly and commissioners show in public their allegiance to a private citizen when they have a governor they statutorily work with. 1 Like |

IfnobeGod20:you just wrote an Emotional bullshiit which doesn't change anything, he has no power to declare anybodies seat vacant, he was drunk when he made that pronouncement, if he wants them to lose their seats, tell him to compell the pdp to challenge their defections and the reasons they gave for defecting, don't come here to gaslight people about godfather bullshiit, what do you know about sim fubara? Is he not also living large and stealing money? Was he not a product of a rigged election? Why didn't he speak up against the election that made him governor since he's a saint? He's empty rhetorics are made to deceive gullible individuals like you. Please don't run, can you show us video evidence of the fomer governor speaking against Jonathan and his wife? You talk about the odilis, do you know that he exalted and worshipped the odilis in 8 years? Buffons like you that do not understand what's happening are always eager to write bullshiit on the Internet, as at 2021, patience and GEJ still visited wike in government house port Harcourt, the ingrate could not wait for a year to elapse, he's already fighting people that made him who he is and we have gullible cretins like you supporting him. |
