garfield1:You need help. It is a pity you don't even know what a constitution is. Plebiscites are organised through Acts of Parliament just like a constitution is an act of parliament. It is a different body of law. Right now, our constitution does not recognise a plebiscites, so the constitution needs to be amended before the parliament can pass a bill to organise one. The Colonial laws recognised plebs and so one was conducted based on that. You see why we call you illiterate? 3 Likes 1 Share |

garfield1:I think Buhari is dumb but you own worse pass. I have never seen someone so dumb. Mumu, this constitution was passed in 1999 by the military it doesn't recognize plebiscite, before then we were using the 1979 constitution which Buhari suspended. The 1961 pleb was based on a colonial law, the same way the Almagamation was a product of the colonial law. That law automatically made anyone living within the Southern and Northerner protectorates, Nigerian and subsequently, everyone born after 1914. 2 Likes 2 Shares |

ChristianNorth:Your brain is full of holes.so you feel that the apc counter claims is not a response abi or that it means the apc wont defend themselves against your master's half baked prayers? A counter claim is a form of response which is mere formality.filing a counter claim is nothing special and doesnt stop apc from defending itself against atiku's useless claims.infact,expect more counter claims challenging the 11 million fraudulent votes he managed to see. Even i a non lawyer has punctured all atiku's claims talkless of what the legal team will do.you have spent more time since this case started in defending your master against his legal mishap instead of being on the offensive.are you not smelling failure or you have lost your sense of perception? |
