You are here running your mouth upanda on this issue.

Were you not the one that accepted and argued for the declaration of orji uzor Kalu as Senator elect in Abia North even tho the no of cancelled votes was more tha the difference between him and his next opponent?

HYPOCRITE
Can you show us an official statement from inec declaring the total number of cancelled votes in abia north ? Do you realize that the two third provision is directly in the constitution and superior to the rule on inconclusive polls which is a creation of inec ?

You are very correct. Imolites hates Okorocha so much. Both online and offline Imolites are rejoicing like it's their independence day lol

That is not INEC rule, you hypocrite.

It is in the electoral law. It is the law.

And that info came from Premium Times stating the votes count announced by INEC in that election.

Thats clearly a mistake from third parties who put up this.but that changes nothing.did nwosu get the 25% spread or not

Yap. Y'all are quick to say inflated figures in Mbaise. Pray tell, what's the number of registered voters in ideato south? Ideato south had a turn out of more than 75% . What's the turn out in Mbaise again?

Go to court. Rubbish
kahal29:
Imo State Governor Rochas Okorocha has declared his son-in-law and candidate of the Action Alliance (AA), Uche Nwosu won Saturday’s governorship election in the state.

“I say so because going by the actual calculation, the person that won this election is Ugwumba Uche Nwosu.

“Uche Nwosu won the election landslide, if you remove the manipulation results from Mbaise, Uche Nwosu won with over 50,000 votes, if you cannot declare him a winner because you have someone already, then they should go for a rerun because you cannot change the Constitution if the Federal Republic of Nigeria because you want to favour a candidate,” he insisted.

He said Nwosu was rigged out of victory by the Governor-elect Emeka Ihedioha in connivance with Resident Electoral Commissioner (REC) Professor Francis Ezeonu.

He accused Ezeonu of working for PDP, saying he wrecked democracy with his complicity in alleged electoral manipulations.

According to him: “The REC has shown he was brought to Imo after the 2015 election to return PDP to power in the state.

“The REC had acted illegally by ignoring the provision of the Constitution that makes it mandatory for a candidate to have 25 percent in 2/3 of the Local Governments in the State by announcing the PDP candidate, Emeka Ihedioha who only met the requirement in 9 Local Governments instead of 18 LGAs which is 2/3 of 27 LGAs winner.”


Okorocha also wondered why the REC should accept the outrageous figures from the three Local Governments Areas of Aboh Mbaise, Ahiazu Mbaise and Ezinihitte where the PDP candidate got 64,219 votes from Aboh Mbaise alone.

He stated the figures from the three LGAs constituted 50 percent of the total votes got by the PDP candidate in the State with 27 LGAs.

“In the course of this manipulation, we all observed that the REC decided not to use the collation officers from Federal University of Technology Owerri (FUTO), which he disbanded for reasons he gave that they have met with politicians.

“Again, he brought some people whom he introduced from the University of Agriculture Umudike.

“They arrived just a night before the election date and we thought we have gotten the collation officers. Again, those ones were disbanded on the same reason that they have met with politicians, I wonder how this is possible having arrived the state after midnight on the election eve.

“Now the REC went to his own University in Awka to bring in collation officers.

“We believed him not knowing that he brought people he has been training for a hatched job for some weeks now in Anambra State to come and carry out this injustice in Imo State.

“These men arrived with heavy security from Anambra and went straight to the various Local Governments.

“We never knew that these were relatives of the PDP candidate and from the same Local Government. These are relatives of the PDP Candidate who were already briefed of what to do.

“This explains the over voting witnessed in Mbaise. Out of the 270,000 votes that he scored, 50 percent of it or over 130,000 all came from just three local governments of Mbaise”, he stated.

He added “As far as I am concerned and we still maintain that REC has wrecked democracy in Imo State. Unfortunately for them, they were not smart enough to know that section 179 requires you to have a spread at least in 2/3 of the local governments before you can be declared a winner.

“They ended up with only 9 local governments instead of 18 required by law. The Returning Officer was advised by all the Senior Staff of INEC against declaring a winner without looking at the Constitution.

“This man in a hurry decided to announce the result against the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria
.


“This is wrong, in doing so, the Returning Officer didn’t even consider the results cancelled, total voters cancelled in the different Polling Booths, was enough to declare the election inconclusive as the difference between the PDP and AA would have called for a supplementary election. With the speed with which he announced the result tells you that the man is part of the game. This again is unacceptable to all of us,” he said.

Why are people so sentimentally blind to the truth?.

Okorocha is very right on this one.

This is clear violation of the constitution.

What a shame!

People of Imo State aren't happy. Go to all social media and gatherings and notice it's only Mbaise people that are happy. That's why the victory celebration was scanty and if you are Igbo you can tell the dialects of the noisemakers.

with the celebration i saw it seems you are the one not happy.
simply stop talking and take INEC to court.

You are gradually becoming desperate and frenzied after i have clearly defeated you with superior facts.you even have the mind to call our mighty constitution a political prank abi? You are dumb.
What happened in 1979 was a little complicated and borderline.there was 19 states and shagari had 25% in 12 states.there was confusion as to whether two third of 19 is 12 or 13.you can see that at least 12 is close to 13 and it can be argued so in court.plus the 1979 constitution at then was ambiguous.but in the case of emeka,he got 25% in only 12 lgas which is not even up to half of 27 talkless of 18.this is too poor.it cant be defended or argued in court.
The 1999 constitution which made this 25% spread is very very clear and plain.there is nothing to argue or waste time.dont be hysterical.any judge or lawyer that tries to frustrate the case may be sanctioned by the nba or njc.

. Emeka Ihedioha was duly returned as Imo Governor-elect.

You guys are missing things up.

If a single candidate is running, he needs 25% in 2/3 of each LGA.

But when there are two or more candidates, a winner needs 25% of 2/3 of the LGA not in each LGA. That means a candidate needs to score 25% of the votes in 2/3 of the LGAs.

The constitution is specific. For instance, if 1000 candidates run for election, it might be difficult to win 25% in 2/3 of LGA and it might even be difficult to win 25% of all the votes casted.

The constitution understand this clearly, so it specifies that such candidate should win 25% of the all the votes casted in 2/3 of the LGA and it could be any mix.

Ihedioha won didn't only win 25% of the votes casted in 2/3 of the LGAs, he even scored over 25% of all casted votes.

For those that don't understand mathematics, in the worst cast scenario, you need 25% of all casted voted to be returned as duly elected.

INEC are within the provision of the law.

Oga 2/3 of 27 is 18!

From the official results,Ihedioha got 25% in only 11 LGAs!!

lnec is the one that is confused here. In my own opinion, that section of the constitution is irrelevant, in the sense that out of their greed, they registered more than 70 political parties for the governorship election, expecting candidates to get 25% in 18 lga. Honestly, I doubts the possibility.
