Edo/ondo 2016: Court Restrains INEC From Accepting Nominations From Makarfi by patiot: 6:39pm On Jun 30, 2016 |
Edo/Ondo 2016: Court restrains INEC from accepting nominations from Makarfi's panel Ahead of the September 10, 2016 governorship election in Edo State, the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has been restrained from accepting any nomination (s) from the Senator Ahmed Makarfi-led National Caretaker Committee of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP). Delivering a ruling in a Motion on Notice, Justice Okon Abang of the Federal High Court, Abuja, held that since there was a pall of doubt about the legality of the emergence of the Makarfi-led Panel in view of the subsisting orders of the court made on 12th and 20th of May, 2016 respectively, the court was inclined to declare that the Senator Ali Modu Sheriff-led national leadership of the party is the only body known to law that can validly organise primary election and nominate candidates for the governorship primary elections in Edo and Ondo states. The Federal High Court in Lagos had on the said dates given orders restraining PDP and INEC from taking any steps that could foist a fait accompli on the court, just as well as restrained PDP and INEC from conducting and recognising any elections into the offices of the National Chairman, National Secretary and National Auditor of the party respectively. Ruling today after taking arguments from the counsel to the plaintiffs and defendants in the suit filed by two chieftains of the PDP from Ondo and Edo states - Chief Benson Akingboye and Hon. Ediozuwa Agbonayinma - filed the suit against INEC and PDP, the court held that the balance of justice was more in favour of the Sheriff-led national leadership of the PDP. While the plaintiffs were represented by Prince Ajibola Oluyede; Mr. Olagoke Fakunle (SAN) and Mr. Tanimu Inuwa appeared for PDP and INEC respectively. After taking submissions from the counsel to the parties, the court granted the following prayers, to wit: " an order of interlocutory injunction restraining the 1st Defendant (INEC) by itself, officers, servants or privies from dealing with or according any recognition to any activity (including primaries/congresses for the nomination of the candidates of the PDP for the gubernatorial elections to be conducted by the 1st Defendant in Edo and Ondo states of the Federal Republic of Nigeria) purportedly conducted on behalf of the 2nd Defendant (PDP) by any other persons or group of persons other than the Senator Ali Modu Sheriff, Professor Wale Oladipo and Alh. Fatai Adeyanju led National Executive Committee of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) pending the hearing and determination of the originating summons. "An order of interlocutory injunction restraining the 1st (INEC) and 2nd Defendants (PDP) by their organs, officers, agents, servants, surrogates and privies from according recognition to, dealing with and according all facilities required by law (regarding the gubernatorial elections to be conducted by the 1st Defendant (INEC) in Edo and Ondo states of Nigeria) to any other persons or group of persons other than the Senator Ali Modu Sheriff, Professor Wale Oladipo and Alh. Fatai Adeyanju led National Executive Committee of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) pending the hearing and determination of the originating summons "An order interlocutory injunction directing the 1st (INEC) and 2nd (PDP) Defendants by their organs, officers, agents, servants, surrogates and privies to recognise, deal with and accord all facilities required by law (regarding the gubernatorial elections to be conducted by the 1st Defendant (INEC) in Edo and Ondo states of Nigeria) to the Senator Ali Modu Sheriff, Professor Wale Oladipo and Fatai Adeyanju-led National Executive Committee of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) as the authentic National Leadership, National Executive Committee and National Working Committee of the 2nd Defendant (PDP) pending the hearing and determination of the originating summons. "An order interlocutory injunction directing the 1st (INEC) and 2nd (PDP) Defendants to reject and ignore any activity (including primary elections/congresses for the nomination of the candidates of the PDP for the gubernatorial elections in Edo and Ondo states of the Federal Republic of Nigeria) purportedly conducted on behalf of the 2nd (PDP) Defendant by any other persons or group of persons other than the Alimodu Sherrif, Professor Wale Oladipo and Fatai Adeyanju led National Executive Committee of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), pending the hearing and determination of the originating summons." 1 Like

This is wat the political judge looks like. Buhari Justice Man. He is very busy with PDP matters. From Abia to Sheriff. Orders coming straight from Asorock. We have no court in Nigeria. Wateva cerdibility accorded the Nigerian Judiciary have been eroded by Buhari Kangaroo court system. Today we hear of Ecowas court, something unheard of during OBJ, Yaradua and GEJ.

It is now i believe the crisis in PDP is externally remote-controlled so that they won‘t be able to present candidates in the forthcoming elections in Edo and Ondo. The ruling party in Abuja having failed woefully knows it might be rejected by the people in these two states. This is bad for our democracy because even the crooked OBJ didnt do this to the opposition 1 Like |
