Supreme Court's Judgement in 2008 Mandated a Candidate to Score At Least 25% in the FCT - Aondoakaa

The Supreme Court's Judgement in 2008 necessitates that a candidate scores at least 25% of the votes in the FCT, the word 'and' was interpreted as conjunctive. That not withstanding, the Supreme Court has the right to depart from its previous decisions if the justice of the case demands that - Michael Aondoakaa, Former Minister of Justice.

@nlfpmod, what do you think?

In saner climes, the Supreme court can ONLY depart from its previous ruling if two similar cases presents different facts. Does it apply in this matter? NO. The facts have not changed; Abuja demands that a winning candidate must win 25 percent of her popular votes. The apex court reaffirmed this as recent as 2008.

It is a statutory requirement which was as well reaffirmed in a case law.

Let's see how they intend to turn things on its head. Nigerians are getting fed with Nigeria.

All pointing to an easy victory for Peter Obi in reclaiming his mandate. Let's see how the supreme court will twist it's 2008 decision on this FCT 25% issue.

There will be no peace for mandate thieves and election riggers.

In which case did the Supreme Court give the judgement?

People living in Abuja no get two heads

which useless Aondoaka that has been disrobed as S.A.N after the disgraceful attitude during the Yar'Adua Presidency/Death Saga.
We shouldn't listen to him. The same man who said Yar'Adua can be president from far away Saudi Arabia without transmitting power to his Vice. For 3 months Nigeria had no visible president and it was even in the dead of the night that they smuggled Yar'Adua in his vegitative state back into Aso ROck CLinic to prevent the vice from been sworn in as acting president. Eventually, Yar'Adua died on May 6 2010 and they could no longer hide it.

I will never ever recognize Tinubu as my president unless otherwise proven beyond every reasonable doubt that all the outcome of the presidential election is as from the polling units.

Until then..

Why then did you want us to have another yaradua experience by voting a sick old demented man as our president?

Parachoko

The people that put that Law knew what they were doing.


First, for one to be a governor, he/she must get 25% in two-thirds of the LGA the make up the state, the same applies for the president, he or she must have 25% in two-thirds of the state and FCT

The FCT doesn't have a governor rather the president appoint a minister to oversee the istration of the FCT
. Now for a president to have the legitimacy of appointing a minister to over see the istration of the FCT he or she must have secured 25% of the total votes cast in the FCT

It is simple

This is pure bullshit talk

So you know INEC wey declare Tinubu as the President Elect? LP and PDP didn't even talk about Abuja matter in their court case cause they know it does not matter.

Only ignorant people like you are arguing blindly about it

It will be upturned by the court

INEC erred in declaring Tinubu president-elect

LP and PDP did talked about it, infact if you had listened to the interview of Mike Ozekhome, he did mentioned it as one of the reasons they are in court

Shagari had less than 10% in Lagos but was still declared the winner of that year election

Well, is a waste of time arguing

Some people like you argued and even cursed me when I told them INEC will declare Asiwaju the President Elect of Nigeria without having 25% in Abuja.

Abuja does not matter, in the eye of the law is a state.

A candidate need at least 25% of the vote in 24 out of the 37 state. Asiwaju have 25% and above in 30 State.

The criminal organisation called INEC fully knows this constitutional requirement but in a haste to forcefully legalise an illegality, it mumbled facts and fictions together. The kind of logjam INEC have entered now will take eternity to redeem its battered image.

Aondoakar is one of the useless attorney generals of the Federation Nigeria has ever produced aside Malami. This is the first time ever he is making sense.

Yes, INEC rigged the election on behalf of Labour party in Anambra, Enugu and Abia state

Its because the 25% is the least of their evidence against the election. Just be patient.

Na laugh I just dey laugh since I hear say Obi dey go court. Him go finish INEC and Tinubu.

That man doesn't spend money anyhow, if he decides to go to court, know say him done press calculator know say him go win. 😂😂😂😂

This has to do with the 1999 constitution

Well, let the court decide

Like I told many of you, only the Supreme Court can lay this issue to rest. Let the Supreme court tell us that 299 strips Abuja of its FCT status and therefore the 25% requirement from the FCT does not apply.

Don't forget that INEC even declared Ihedioha as winner when we all knew that Ihedioha did not meet the statutory requirement. So it's not the first time INEC did not follow constitutional requirements before declaring a candidate winner.

Imagine him mentioning Shagari and lagos where as the 1999 constitution specifically mentioned FCT

Arise TV is like beer parlour and pepper soup t, always twisting facts and whipping up sentiments. There's a section of the Constitution that said Abuja shall be treated as a State. On what ground will Abuja be regarded as superior to Edo or Kaduna in of election? Are those living in Abuja more human than others?


So a candidate can win the 36 states, but will not be declared President if he doesn't make 25% in Abuja? As in Abuja residents have special status or what?
