Peacecore: section 109(1)(g) of the Constitution which applies to members of the State Houses of Assembly. From the foregoing section, it is crystal clear that a member of the Senate or House of Representatives vacates his office once he defects to another political party. The position taken by the Constitution accords with common sense as a political party is known to represent a particular ideology. Suffice it to say that the organisation and allocation of various positions in the House depend on the strength of one’s political party. The Court of Appeal interpreting this provision in Sunday Ifedayo Abegunde v Ondo State House of Assembly & Ors5 followed the literal rule6 of interpretation and declared thus: In construing Section 68(1)(g) in the light of the aforementioned judicial guidelines, it is self-evident that the said section implies the following: (i) A member of the House of Representatives is sponsored by a political party to that legislative house. (ii) A member of the House of Representatives who is so sponsored, automatically vacates his seat if he becomes a member of another political party before the expiration of the lifespan of the House of Representatives for which he was elected (iii) A decampee legislator would escape the consequence in (ii) (supra), if his membership of another political party is as a result of division in the sponsoring party or merger of the sponsoring political party or a faction thereof. The Court continued: It seems to me that the basic aim of the paragraph is to forestall the erstwhile common phenomenon in our various legislatures changing their party and joining another party in the legislature, which is popularly known as carpet-crossing. The penalty for a member changing his party and becoming a member of another party is to vacate his seat in the legislature. One need not be a soothsayer to appreciate the simplicity and clarity of language implored by the Constitution in expressing itself as regards cross carpeting or defection in Nigeria coupled with the clear interpretation given by the Court. In essence, once a lawmaker joins another political party, he ceases to be a lawmaker. However, the provision is followed by a proviso which requires judicial involvement by way of judicial interpretation. The same Umahi you called, even your demi-god Wike called for their sack that period.... you are the myopic half-baked brain. |

Peacecore: You that support Tinubu and APC, how is your purchasing power like I hope you are happy buying fuel at N900, hike in electricity tariff, and high cost of purchasing essentials. As an APC member, your support will not absorb you. |

lonelydora:Allow d court to say so. Nwifuru, d present gov of Ebonyi State defected when he was the speaker alongside others. No one went there to declare their seats vacant rather they proceeded to court ie PDP to challenge their saty on the seats. So calm down! |

You spoke beautifully well my brother. Fubara only succeeded in scattering the bees nest. That was the greatest mistake he has made. He should ask Ladoja in Oyo state what befell him, he should ask Ambode in Lagos state. You don't fight people who put u in power cos they are more powerful than u in any capacity. Fubara never had any political base. He rode on wikes back to get to that place. He has forgotten that this same Wike he is criticising actually stabbed some people on their back to put him there at all cost I hate disloyalty with a passion. Whatever agreement that he is using to blackmail wike, he consented to it, his eyes were opened widely and signed to it. So why now trying to use innocent masses to garner useless sympathy? U can't consent to an agreement and suddenly now want to form a Saint? Its is not done! That agreement will fight u to the very last and make a mess of you. My take, give unto Ceaser what belongs to Caeser modernWays: |
Re: Rivers Assembly Clerk Disowns Pro-Fubara Faction, Insists Amaewhule Is Speaker by Kukutente23: 4:58pm On May 10 |
Peacecore:Definitely!! The constitution does not leave section 109 subject to a court order. There's a supreme court case already decided in the matter. Just as Lord Denning was quoted. You ordinarily do not need a court order to obey the law. The law is alive and in itself is to be obeyed! |
Re: Rivers Assembly Clerk Disowns Pro-Fubara Faction, Insists Amaewhule Is Speaker by Kukutente23: 5:00pm On May 10 |
Pepsicola:The kind of citizens we breed though. So it is not the votes of Rivers people that put Fubara in power now. So the treasury of Rivers state belongs to "Ceasar" now? Na wa o. Democracy indeed |

favor914:Far from it...... There were several strong men in PDP that wanted that position (Felix Obuah) for example. But wike only wanted someone that he taught d ABC of politics.....so he picked Fubara (who has NEVER been a politician all his Life) |
Re: Rivers Assembly Clerk Disowns Pro-Fubara Faction, Insists Amaewhule Is Speaker by favor914: 5:34pm On May 10 |
AviatorMoney:Exactly Nyesom Wike chose the weakest man amongst them, similar thing baba iyabo did, when he made Yar’adua choose Jonathan as his running 🏃♀️ mate? And they always end up been the most dangerous choice, because they don’t have a mind of their own, they can easily be manipulated to betray their predecessors. |
Re: Rivers Assembly Clerk Disowns Pro-Fubara Faction, Insists Amaewhule Is Speaker by AviatorMoney(m): 6:16pm On May 10 |
favor914:Exactly wat is is playing out in my State now ..... Wike NEVER taught is dis wat, but outboard politicians of d previous administration,just immediately picked on his choice of a WEAK-LINK and raised issues that Fubara also got concerns about..... Hence the entire drama |

Re: Rivers Assembly Clerk Disowns Pro-Fubara Faction, Insists Amaewhule Is Speaker by Joshy4u: 9:46am On May 11 |

Re: Rivers Assembly Clerk Disowns Pro-Fubara Faction, Insists Amaewhule Is Speaker by Joshy4u: 10:01am On May 11 |
Honor10: I am referring to you 'failure'. If I see one, it is very easy to spot. |

Kukutente23:Manslaughter is a crime that has its punishment well stated in the constitution. So if someone commits it, he should just go and hand himself over to the prison warders for incarceration? |
Re: Rivers Assembly Clerk Disowns Pro-Fubara Faction, Insists Amaewhule Is Speaker by Peacecore: 4:21pm On May 11 |
Joshy4u:Just tell me what that will happen and stop beating chest. |
Re: Rivers Assembly Clerk Disowns Pro-Fubara Faction, Insists Amaewhule Is Speaker by Peacecore: 4:23pm On May 11 |
Joshy4u:Then I agree but stop pretending to be neutral body. We know y`all. |
