It seems Fubara is winning the war.

The next is to declare the seats of the 27 law makers vacant after winning at the Supreme Court

Kids😂😂

Validated:


Be speaking grammar there. 2/3 of 5 is 4. If others did not attend 2/3 is based on attendance. Quorum is simply amending house rule and kpichicum, budget would be ED.

Not true.a quorum is one third of 32 at any time

kingsways:
The 27 are no longer of the House having left the party that brought them

The first thing the authentic speaker should do is to declare their seats vacant

When did that start in Nigeria 😂😂

plat0:
no court has declared their seats vacant, ifeanyi uba defected some weeks ago, has he stopped being a member of the national assembly?

There is no division in the PDP national to warrant their defection. The constitution is very clear about it.

Nobody in his former party,YPP has legally challenged his defection.

Funny order indeed..

Just watch how another Abuja or Lagos State High court will recognize Martins Amaewula's faction.

This is the time for other PDP guys to Fubara. Atiku should get close to him.

Let Wike be isolated

what can you say about ifeanyi uba? I watched Enemi Alabo George on channels, he has a valid reason for defection, there are no small boys, they have done their homework before defection and up till this moment no court has declared their seat vacant, I know you're tilting towards the other side but it is what it is

Lol, ypp is challenging him in court

The law is quite clear. Is there a division in PDP? Your guess is as good as mine.

Section 68 (1) (g) of the Nigerian constitution makes party defection grounds for removal for of the national assembly. This section states that A member shall vacate his seat “being a person whose election to the house was sponsored by a political party, he becomes a member of another political party before the expiration of the period for which that House was elected; provided that his hip of the latter political party is not as a result of a division in the political party of which he was previously a member or of a merger of two or more political parties or factions by one of which he was previously sponsored ”.

Section 109 (1) of the 1999 Constitution provides that ‘a member of a House of Assembly shall vacate his seat in the House if … (g) being a person whose election to the House of Assembly was sponsored by a political Party, he becomes a member of another political party before the expiration of the period for which that House was elected…

Maize247:
Is this a speaker with 5 or the one with 27 because our judiciary can be fuuny

Suddenly an agbado miscreant realises our judiciary can be funny

Has any court instructed ifeanyi uba and the 27 lawmakers to vacate their sits? Go and watch Enemis Alabo George's interview on channels, the National secretary position in the PDP is in contention. I told you that they are not kids, they've done their homework.

Last week the speaker also got an interim injunction preventing the house from convening if the in attendance are less than 25, the defendant in the suit were asked to pay 1b if that order is breached

No governor am declar the seat of Lawakwes vacant...

SadiqBabaSani:
Rivers State wahala is gonna swallow Wike politcal career if not carefully handled. People hate ingrates as much as they hate godfatherism.

His political career is finished.

He thinks politics is gara gara.. even ObJ with his power and Gara gara.. couldn't gara gara himself to a 3rd term.

Everything has limit.. sadly Wike have reached his..

HeadlessMob:


You must be one of the worst fools on earth to say that Amaechi made Wike a governor? Do you still take Mkpurumiri from your village?

Hands go soon touch you, coward

favor914:
Not so true, go & read the law properly, when there is chaos in a party’s state structure with factions, elected party are allowed to cross carpet, and it is quite clear in Rivers State that there is a problem.

Where is the factions? The party EXCO do not have any factions, so they are on their own .

Look at them all praising the Gov and gearing him to continue as if both Wike and the Gov knows their existence but their pockets.
Who do this to us for crying out loud.

spencekat:

A party he formed? Nothing will happen in his own case because he formed the party

Wike thinks Rivers is Lagos or that South South is South West where political godfather put the indigenes in their anal cavity?

He should ask Oshiomhole and Rochas how far.

SadiqBabaSani:
When I read comments from people like you advocating illegal acts, I just realize how hypocritical we are, we are bad in this country

It's a game dude, everybody has a side they . I bet you dont know the details of what's going on between Wike and Fubara but you Fubara because you dont like Wike. It's a free world and everybody has same right to who they like, its a game, just keep watching.

Fubara 1 - 0 Wike

How will the high court speaker sit with 3 ? They're just four. Ehie and three others. Lol 🤣🤣🤣🤣 they don't even form a quorum to sit.


Trust me the other faction will just disregard the court order like it doesn't exist. They also have their own orders from an Abuja high court. The political class have destroyed the judiciary.

Tell me one offense Fubara has committed that makes Wike to be making governance hot for him

There is as there's no substantive secretary

This is the lead judgement in a of 7:

“The principles enunciated by this Court in the two cases, FEDECO v. Goni (supra) and AG Federation v. Abubakar (supra), is to the effect that only such factionalisation, fragmentation, splintering or ‘division’ that makes it impossible or impracticable for a political party to function as such will, by virtue of the proviso to Section 68(1)(g), justify a person’s defection to another party and the retention of his seat for the unexpired term in the house inspite of his defection. Otherwise, as rightly held by the courts below, the defector automatically loses his seat. In the instant case, the two courts are right that the Labour Party that has continued to function as a political party by meeting the conditions of associations by virtue of Sections 221 and 222 of the Constitution must necessarily meet, cannot be said to have been so factionalised, fragmented, split or divided to justify the defection of the appellant to another party and retention of his seat inspite of the defection. This remains the position of this Court on the issue.”


The NWC is not split!

A temporary victory

He just wants to his N800b budget so as to have money to play with.

The Judge is the elder brother to Fubara's SSG, I think.

So because there is issue as regards to the National Secretary of the PDP, it amounts to division in the party. The issue of the secretary of the PDP is in court.

Division is when there are two factions as in the case of PDP and NPDP era. And where there are parallel excos.

So they have no ground to defect.

That the party of Ifeanyi Uba refused to declare his seat vacant by writing to INEC or going to court to contest his defection, do not mean that the 27 House of Assembly will escape it.

The PDP national has made a statement by calling for the declaration of their seat vacant. Well, let's see if the PDP will contest it in court so it will bring to finality this issue of defection.

So that means there is crisis according to you right

senatordave1:

You're very funny honestly


So you want the crisis to fester

favor914:
A joking Joker, Nyesom Wike is your Master, Bola Tinubu is your Lord, you all will keep wailing.

The Governor is a dead man walking.

Why not ask Wike to defect to APC

Let him try it now
