This illegality won't stand the test of time. APC leaders and Kogi cabal have no other choice but to present Abiodun Faleke irrespective of whether he's Lagos-Kogi or Kano-Kogi

.

Crap...it's either adeleke or nothing

I advice APC to contact that Lawyer (Jiti Ogunoye or so) who spoke on the Sunrise Daily show of yesterday (Organized by Channnels News). Both INEC and the AGF have made legal gaffes concerning the issue and if APC joins in with this fiasco of a primaries, they will unwittingly give the PDP a chance to usurp the seat of power at the Tribunals or the court of Appeal.

I learnt alot from listening to him. Anybody who knows anybody in the APC should advise them so.

The fact that APC had someone like Audu as its member shows that this country would just keep going round and round the same circles.

While PDP having someone like Jona Jang who is old enough to be the grandpa of Audu shows that this country will not just keep going round and round the same circle shey?

You should have known that Apc would have consulted their legal team before making any conclusion.Faleke wouldn't be the option because he didn't participate in the Apc primary election.Faleke woudnt be presented as the govship candidate simply because a candidate cant run for 2 offices in a certain/single or particular election.The law doesn't permit him to run as deputy and at the same time run for govship.The best option for Apc now is to present the second runner up in the Apc primary election.

I don't know who mentioned PDP here.

Now run along.

Psalm18:
It seems the logical thing to do.
He came second in the primaries.
The winner is dead.
Second should replace him, Faleke didn't contest.

Sure! If the best student who is going to represent his school in a competition dies, his running mate automatically should replace him.

Senate President Bukola Saraki and other senators from PDP and APC to an interactive dinner session with President Buhari and VP Yemi Osinbajo at the state house Abuja this evening. In attendance at the meeting was APC National Leader Bola Tinubu who was seated near Bukola Saraki.

the point of reference is a 68 year old man, not a minor or a youth.

do you need to be told that and why?

But it was evident that APC was single-handedly mentioned and castigated: get your fact right

Did constitution forbid 68 year old man from contesting? I don't get your point.

Crying more than the bereaved.we know where your loyalty lies.Presenting Faleke as the governorhip candidate is like playing into the trap and hands of PDP. Faleke didn't participate in the Apc primary election.so as a result he will be nullified at the tribunal if he wins the election. A case study is Amechi and Omehia in Rivers state. (2) since faleke has participated in the election as deputy gov,the law doesn't permit him to run in the same election as the govship candidate again simply because one cant vie for 2 different positions in the same election.So Apc wouldn't play to your gallery for you to upturn the result at the tribunal.

handie:
Seriously, I think this issue should be taken to the supreme court for interpretation. The ideal arrangement which I feel will make everyone happy is James Faleke for governor and Abubakar Audu's Son as deputy( this will placate the igalas and Audu's supporters). Yahaya Bello as governor and James Faleke as deputy will mean shortchanging the igalas. Yahaya Bello as governor and an igala man as deputy will amount to dumping James Faleke after all the campaigns. BTW, can't James Faleke argue that the election was effectively won already by Audu and as d running mate, should be the occupier of d office?(the number of eligible voters is less than the margin with which APC are leading)

Why James Faleke Cant be the APC Governorship Candidate
"In my candid opinion, those who are calling for a fresh party primary and statewide governorship election thereafter needs to factor in the provision of Section 178 (2) of the 1999 constitution (as amended) which says election to the office of the governor should be held not earlier than 150 days and not later than 30 days. Wada was sworn in as Kogi State Governor on January 31, 2012 and as things stand, INEC may not have the wherewithal to conduct a fresh election throughout the state within the next one month left for it to do so. For those pushing the joint ticket argument, Audu alone ran in the party primary while his running mate was nominated by him or his party after he emerged victorious at the intra-party election. Meanwhile, for a person to be a candidate of the party under our extant laws, particularly Section 87 of the Electoral Act 2010, as amended, he must have participated in all the stages of the nomination processes. That is, he must have undergone the party primary. Faleke unfortunately did not undergo primary with Audu. To my own mind, the cost and time-saving thing to do by the APC and INEC is for the party to nominate the first runner up to be its candidate while INEC should go ahead to conclude the election by holding supplementary poll in the 91 polling units where election could not hold or was cancelled. Meanwhile, it is not the first time INEC had declared election inconclusive and went ahead to conduct a supplementary election. It happened in the governorship election in Ekiti State in 2009, Imo State in 2011 and 2015 to mention but a few.
If Bello goes to court Faleke would lose his seat to Bello if eventually selected

PS: you have bee avoiding the truth
APC should not field Faleke..... Otherwise PDP would get that Kogi mandate on the doctrine of wasted votes

Oh.. The man no support Buhari..

And you people want to put someone that supported Buhari..

Am not saying Audu was killed by APC ooo

AprokoMan:

Ki n so fun asan, ki n wo fun owo. Ko ni ye e!
AprokoMan, how are you this morning? (grinning)

Faleke should go to court. If they refuse to give him his mandate, he should quit APC. Let him go and discuss with his people in Kogi the right steps to take and stop listening to people trying to placate him. Always stand for your right, look at Amaechi. One person cannot fly from anywhere and take over those votes when over 80% has been done. You are a native of Kogi and entitled to govern that state like any one else.

Hw is it an illegality he was the second in the primaries, faleke did not contest the primaries
Remember in rivers state when Celestine omehias primary was struck out his deputy didn't become the governor but ameachi who didn't even contest in the election was declared the winner

It is well with APC if they replace Audu with Yaya Bello.Do not mind Faleke and Igalas who want to reap where they did not sown

Thank you my brother.Those clamouring for faleke are either sympathetic to his course or either they are PDP apologists who are trying to be clever by half with the intention of turning the victory to their favour at the election tribunal.
