Bayelsa: Oshiomole Goofed Once Again by OLADD: 12:04pm On Feb 14, 2020 |
In the aftermath of Supreme Court judgement which nullified the election of APC candidates in the last gubernatorial polls in Bayelsa State, Comrade Adams Oshiomole, in his usual superimposing mannerism hit the headline by positing that the Candidate of PDP did not meet constitutional requirements in terms of geagraohical spread to be sworn in as the duly elected governor of the Oil producing State. The APC Chair either mischievously or in an attempt to turn the judgement on its head chose to ingnore part of the judgement which unambiguously nuliified the election of the APC candidates owing to acts of certificate infractions. Oshiomole failed to come to term with the incontrovertible fact that in the eyes of the law both the APC governorship candidate and his deputy as a result of their disqualification did not exist before the polls. Since we cannot build something on nothing, all the votes attributed to APC as announced by INEC after the elections automatically become null and void. In this regard, only the votes scored by the PDP candidate and other contestants would be considered in determining who emerges as the winner by number of votes and geographical spread as pronounced by the Apex Court. |

donbachi: Indeed, all power belongs to the Almighty. All the show of might exhibited by APC in that election became absolute nought. Though both APC and PDP rigged in the polls, the results announced in favour of the former in some areas call for questioning. In fairness however, PDP would have towed the same line if they were in power at the centre. The race is not for the swift. |

This is not about Oshiomole atall...this is case of northern APC shit against Southern APC |

WiLdFLame: This topic is about Oshiomole's uncanny penchant for misjudging national issues. |

OLADD: Shut up jor APC is better under Oshiomole!!!! |

OLADD: I thought you were going to address the issue raised by oshiomole. Did PDP meet the contstitional requirement of geographic spread?? |
Re: Bayelsa: Oshiomole Goofed Once Again by OLADD: 9:16pm On Feb 16, 2020 |
alezzy13: If you have read my post carefully, you would have answered the question by yourself. In the context of the Supreme Court judgement the PDP candidate clearly met the basic requirements of highest number of votes scored and geographical spread. Ask me how. Having been disqualified as ineligible to stand as candidate's in the election, all the votes scored by the APC candidates are deemed null and void. So, if you're considering candidate with the highest votes and geographical spread, only the votes scored by PDP and other parties (excluding those of APC) would be reckoned with. That clearly established, the PDP candidate from the figures released by INEC (minus APC votes as pronounced by Supreme Court) unambiguously surpassed all constitutional requirements to be declared winner and sworn in as governor. |

WiLdFLame: Bros, there's no need for tantrum. The results out there show whether APC is better under Oshiomole or otherwise. Take a look at the number of states won by APC in 2015 and compare with the party's outing in 2019, you don't need any political scientist to prove how APC has degenerated under Oshiomole. The party's present ignominy and chaos would be a child's play if he retains the Chairman's seat before the 2023 elections. |

Very nice of you. What if the number of voided votes in this case 350K is more than the margin of win 140K should a winner be declared? Also if for any reason the court upholds other per election matters against pdp will this same principle of void votes hold? It then means about 2K people will elect a governor. Let's be careful. We should strive for justice. OLADD: |
Re: Bayelsa: Oshiomole Goofed Once Again by Otuegbe: 10:17am On Feb 17, 2020 |
So from your analysis, assuming PDP candidate scored only 10k votes, automatically he becomes the gov |
Re: Bayelsa: Oshiomole Goofed Once Again by Judeerons32: 10:49am On Feb 17, 2020 |
My brother that is the dangerous precedent Inec and the judiciary is setting. Assuming pdp looses the court case instituted by Alaibe. It then means both apc and pdp votes will be voided. That leaves 2K votes. A day will come when a party will score 670K votes to defeat another which score 70K votes and for whatever reason the winner will be disqualified. Instead of a fresh or rerun election. With this precedent it is going to be dark. Otuegbe: |
