baralatie: I don't think there will be a run off. No President has failed to get 25% in the FCT. So this legal dispute has never cropped up before. But the Courts can interpret it any way they choose. Since the Tinubu camp seems to hold sway in the Judiciary, they should get a favorable disposition. He got 25%+ in more than 25 states. That said, if some states are canceled, we might head to a run off, regardless of judgment. Unfortunately, the law is also not clear on who goes to runoff. The Aso Rock cabal and powerful Northern and Southern interests will want it to be between APC and PDP. But the APC camp will want it to be between APC and LP. Obi will sweep the South and part of NC, but the core North will vote Tinubu en masse. Not even Atiku can convince them to vote Obi. That's when you'll start seeing 1.5m votes from each Northern state, although the South can play that game as well. -Lord 2 Likes |

SmartyPants:This law has never been tested. Only Tinubu has fallen short. So Falana has no point of reference . Only the supreme court can clarify this law. Like I said I'm excited because it's a historic moment. I've always been curious about this law. 1 Like |

00FFT00: Let me make you cry once again, because I know you do not read: Today, the courts have ruled that pursuant to Section 299 of the constitution, that the FCT should be treated as a state. That is the law. So go and read the constitution. It is written in English, not igbo. |
backbone503(m): 11:35am On Feb 28, 2023 |
DMerciful: Rerun how? Constitutionally, to be declared winner, a candidate has to secure 1/3 (25%) of valid votes cast in 2/3 (24) states of the federation. To the best of my knowledge, Asiwaju has fulfiled these conditions. Brace up for a Tinubu led APC Federal govt. I pray God grants him the love, wisdom and all he'll need to pilot the affairs of this great nation. 1 Like 1 Share |

FCT was expected. LP was the flavour of the month. Adudua falling was unexpected...if it is true. 20 years on the seat.. even managed to swat off Jisallo in 2019.....gone in one day. |

it will be difficult but INEC should beg Nigerians for forgiveness and for the sake of justice follow stipulated proceedings n ensure people who didn't vote get the chance to vote, put massive Military presence n ensure a proper secret ballot system so everyone votes his preferred candidates without fear of being attacked, it's not too much to ask. For all the monies spent they should have done better.The mother of #Endsars is cooking.End #badgovernment #endinec
