teeboila: But as harsh and stupid it may sound, it is the clear truth. It is a race, only those alive gets to finish it. You don't substitute a player during the race. You don't take from Peter to pay Paul... All these bending and bending of rules should stop. The Ruling Party can't keep running the country like this, the en will definitely not be good. |

Opinedecandid:And how is your postulations differ with that of APC. You wish that all decision to be taken by INEC should favour PDP, if not you should have known that there are many more plausible options other than the ones you posted, one of which is the current position the INEC has taken. The issue at hand is subject to different interpretation but at the end of the day, which ever interpretation is arrived at would remain subject of dispute by the varying parties or interest group involved. INEC has to take decision ordinarily, that is what it has done maybe after juxtaposition of the legal understanding available to them. We may have contrary view, an Obvious fact that man is always tilted to his biases and to defense his biases even at the face of unmitigated fact. Thus, we have Law court where we can approach not only to seek for re-dress but also to test legal position of our biases. On the issue in discussion, set your mind free and ask yourself some questions given serious thought to the constitution and the present electoral Acts. For instance, 1. Can a person who is not a member of any political party stands as a candidate in election contest? 2. Is a political party party to an election matters or matters arising from election? 3. Who wins or loses in an election between a candidate, a political part or both? 4. Many questions could be asked by an impartial minds On a final note, I cannot contemplate any person being lazy more than he/she who thinks INEC has only two options in this matter arising from Kogi election. Think more, Bros! |

ldpele: Is it possible for APC to go into an election without a valid candidate? Is it possible for PDP to contest against a ghost before election was duly contested? The worst that can happen is to recognize his deputy as the valid candidate as the office was constitutionally created to caters for the emergencies like this. For your enlightment, nothing concern AGF on this matter except the case is challenged by the parties involved: judiciary is meant for interpretation of law and you know who is constitutionally empowered when it comes to making law in Nigeria. Get your fact right. |
Re: PDP To INEC: Declare Wada As Winner Of Kogi Election by ldpele(m): 6:26pm On Nov 26, 2015 |
PDP have a serious legal case here, some persons calling it a joint may not be getting it right, u can't b a flag bearer if u don't run or contest a party primaries, the last I checked, the deputy didn't. So on wat grounds will the deputy of audu be giving the party flag to contest for the supplementary. I truly believe the PDP are playing politics with this statement, though after the partisan AGF refused approaching the Supreme Court for interpretation. |
Re: PDP To INEC: Declare Wada As Winner Of Kogi Election by hush15: 6:27pm On Nov 26, 2015 |
femi1410: You can pass insults on Metuh for I care, but pls, see through his words. He is right. One is the candidate started a race. Unfortunately, Faleke did not contest in the primaries as a governorship contestant but Audu and it's too late to start running primaries. If the Candidate didn't finish his race, it's not the fault of anyone. On this case, Audu passed on unfortunately before he could claim his mandate. Automatically, that ends APC there. APC should have gone with a contestant with clean bill of health. The race has to continue without APC. Unfortunately, it's a sad loss for APC but if they truly care bout our democracy, the should display sportsmanship and accept, then wish other contestants in the race better luck. Not fight for everything. Secondly, The same law that was upheld in Taraba should be the same electoral law in Kogi except Taraba is not in Nigeria. If Taraba is upturned on the basis of individuality knowing full well by pre judicial rulings that the party owns the votes, and the party acknowledges the candidate that won as their consensus candidate, primaries or not, it think should be given to them. APC now is claiming party votes and thus should be allowed to be substituted, in an election that is ongoing. I would rather advice that INEC conclude the elections as it is now, then APC goes to the court and contest. Not, preempt and put the cart before the horse... |

Re: PDP To INEC: Declare Wada As Winner Of Kogi Election by ldpele(m): 6:33pm On Nov 26, 2015 |
Ephemmm:excuse me! What office are u talking about? The OFFICE OF A DEPUTY PARTY FLAG BEARER, u ain't serious with that analogy my dear. And how will u stay the AGF av nothing to do with this? We are talking about a clear lacuna that the constitution didn't envisage. If e no concern am, why him advice INEC on what to do? U actually need to take a second line of thought. |

. [size=28pt]APC can not fill new candidate, dead audu have to finish the election[/size] 1. Missouri Senator Mel Carnahan Missouri Governor Mel Carnahan famously won election to the Senate in Missouri in 2000 – 38 days after passing away in a plane crash that also claimed the lives of his son and a campaign advisor. Carnahan beat incumbent Senator John Ashcroft - who would soon move on to serve as U.S. Attorney General for President George W. Bush. Carnahan’s wife filled his spot in the Senate until a 2002 special election. 2. Tracy City Mayor Carl Geary Earlier this year, voters in the small town of Tracy City, Tennessee, handed Carl Geary an overwhelming 285-85 victory in the city’s mayoral race – ousting incumbent Barbara Brock in the process. Geary was unable to accept, of course, because he’d passed away of a heart attack a month before the election. To some voters, Geary's victory seemed to be a tribute of sorts; to others, it was a lesser-of-two-evils decision. In a Telegraph story on the vote, Geary’s wife Susan is quoted as saying “The day he passed away, people were calling with condolences and saying, 'We're still voting for him.'” “I knew he was deceased," said another voter. "I know that sounds stupid, but we wanted someone other than [Brock].” Interestingly, Brock had been appointed mayor less than two years earlier, when the sitting mayor died of a heart attack. 3. Winfield Mayor Harry Stonebraker Missouri voters were at it again in 2009 when the town of Winfield’s recently deceased incumbent mayor Harry Stonebraker won a 4th term with a staggering 90% of the vote. According to the NY Daily News, Stonebraker’s death from a heart attack only seemed to bolster the popularity he’d garnered, in part, by helping citizens recover from a flood that had ravaged the town the year before. For his part, Stonebraker’s opponent, Bernie Panther, was completely unable to convince people that he was a better option than their dearly-departed hero – and received only 23 total votes as a result. 4. U.S. Representative Patsy Mink Patsy Mink was a trailblazing politician who served the state of Hawaii for 12 terms in the U.S. House of Representatives. According to the National Women’s Hall of Fame, in 1964 Mink became “the first woman of color elected to the national legislature and the first Asian-American congresswoman.” After a stint serving in the President Carter’s administration and as a member of the Honolulu City Council, Mink returned to the U.S House of Representatives in 1990 – serving until she died of pneumonia weeks before election day in 2002. A few weeks after receiving a state funeral, Mink was honored once again when the voters of Hawaii re-elected her to Congress – a seat that was re-assigned a few months later after a special election. |

ldpele: Your logic is full of fallacy by even denying what I typed clearly: may be you should go back to my previous post. I told you SGF has nothing to do with this, but remember I told you that SGF can only intervene when parties involved approach the competent court of law? However, I refers to all Deputy Officers of whether at Federal, state, or local government! INEC recognizes the party registered with him as contestant during election and not as individual personality. It is also ironical that you are so uninformed to the extent that you believe INEC has no legal Unit handling the legal affairs within its jurisdiction. You need to wake up from your slumber please. |
