Can Nigeria 🇳🇬 Courts Resolve Electoral Doubts‽

I will be honest, I was rooting for Peter Obi to win this election & become Nigeria’s 🇳🇬 next President. However, the danger of three leading candidates is that while most people vote against the incumbent, the latter can win due to rivals “splitting the vote.”

That said, many people are upset with the results (& understandably so), as President Elect Asiwaju Bola Tinubu victory is not being celebrated by most of Nigeria 🇳🇬. Peter Obi is challenging the results in court, but I wonder if the courts will overturn the proclaimed results of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC)‽

While Obi said he won the election and would explore all legal and peaceful means to prove it in court, Atiku concurred, saying “the processes and outcome of the Presidential and National Assembly elections of last Saturday were grossly flawed in every material particular and as such, must be challenged.” […]

In a quick response, Tinubu, who had earlier in his victory speech extended a hand of fellowship to his challengers at the poll, said he would meet them in court to defend his mandate. […]

Obi, who spoke at a briefing in Abuja, enjoined his supporters, especially party members, not to despair because he and his running mate, Dr Yusuf Datti Baba-Ahmed, had taken up the challenge posed by President Muhammadu Buhari and President-elect, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, to mount a legal challenge if they were convinced the electoral process was faulty. (Vanguard)

I do not think the courts will attempt to overturn the proclaimed results of this election in order to avoid creating a legal precedent (which could result in chaos in future elections).

However, I suspect the courts will issue decrees requiring the INEC to be properly staffed & funded to avoid this scenario in the future.

I do not think this is the end of Peter Obi’s political career. I believe that in four years, he will run for President again—albeit this time emerge victorious.

Former Governor of Ogun State, Gbenga Daniel, has finally broken his silence over the controversy on Nigeria's presidential jets seized recently.   Ejes Gist News gathered that the jets were grounded in Europe a few days ago, following a court injunction by a Chinese firm, Zhongfu International Investment FXE, over a contract dispute with the Ogun State Government.   Presidential Jets Seizure: Amosun Also Cancelled My Ogun Contract, Just Like He Did to a Chinese Firm – Pat Utomi   Daniel was the serving governor from 2003 to 2011 when the contract was signed in 2007.   Buttressing the statement, he cited the need to enhance diplomatic measures involving Nigeria's collective interests and assets.   A statement from the office of Daniel explained that he is not in any way connected to the current legal deliberations, but will definitely help the federal government in arriving at a political solution. Presidential Jets Seizure: I Mistakenly Signed Away Ogun's Multibillion-Naira Trade Zone to Chinese Investors, Ibikunle Amosun Confesses   The Senate President charged the press to cooperate with the government in ensuring a constructive resolution, rather than politicking about the nation's assets and integrity.   "Since the report of the Arbitration and legal matters between a Chinese Firm and the Federal Government of Nigeria/ Ogun State Government on the termination of Management contract at the Ogun/ Guangdong Free Trade Zone, the Media Office of His Excellency, The Senator Otunba Engr Gbenga Daniel, FNSE, FAEng has been inundated with calls requesting for Otunba Daniel's reaction on the matter.".   "We need to establish clearly that Otunba Gbenga Daniel, or his administration, is not in discussion on the matter before the courts and arbitration; neither were the terms or proprietary of the Agreement for the establishment of FTZ, but rather, the termination of a Management Contract. The judgements in all the courts are very clear on this.".   This is a very sensitive matter involving our collective national assets and commonwealth, which every patriotic Nigerian should be concerned about. And as an elder statesman who had been privileged to serve as governor of Ogun State, during which time he was able to carry out a number of developmental projects, like the establishment of the Ogun/Guangdong Free Trade Zone and others, and through which he impacted on the lives of many citizens, and presently a serving Senator of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, it is in this patriotic path that he chooses to thread.   "Rather than the media comments, the most reasonable course of action Senator Otunba Gbenga Daniel would rather engage in at this critical time is to help Nigeria through President and Commander-in-Chief, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, toward finding a diplomatic solution on the issue at hand with available records that could assist the Federal Government in pursuing its course before the arbitration and before the courts.". He cannot do this on the pages of newspapers and in other media, which may also compromise the strength of arguments by Nigeria in the courts.   "We need to also appreciate that this matter is before various courts in several countries and it is subjudice for anyone to speak on them.".   "But let us emphasize again that the Ogun/Guangdong Free Trade Zone project still exists, several Nigerians working there as we write this, just as there are several companies still doing their legitimate businesses. It is from this development perspective that the efforts of Otunba Gbenga Daniel should be well appreciated.".   "At the time of his handover in 2011, about 56 companies were at different stages of operations, construction, and showing interest in the Free Trade Zone, through which various life-impacting developments, such as the construction of roads, schools for the local community, a scholarship, and sponsorship of many Nigerians for academic pursuits, etc. have taken place at Igbesa area, which was otherwise a rural community before the establishment of the Free Trade Zone.".

  "So many misleading reports and misrepresentation of facts on Timelines of activities relating to the establishment and Operations of the Free Trade Zone are in circulation, especially on the social media, and we beg that the media should partner with the Nigerian government in finding a very productive solution to this matter in Nigeria's interest. It is not time to play politics with the assets and integrity of our dear country.".   "We sincerely appreciate all efforts at reaching out for Otunba Daniel's side of the story as we also seek the understanding of all those who called to appreciate his sturdy silence to be able to assist the President on the way out of this testy time and situation."

Seyi Law denies campaigning for Tinubu

Controversial comedian Oluwaseyitan Aletile, also known as Seyi Law, has denied campaigning for President Bola Tinubu in the last election. The comedian claimed he only declared publicly that Tinubu was his choice, and didn’t ask people to vote for his candidate. DAILY POST reports that Seyi Law, who lives abroad, has, however, come under fire on social media following the worsening economic hardship, with many youths calling him out for supporting the President Bola Tinubu-led Federal Government. However, speaking in the latest episode of The Honest Bunch, the comic star said it was unjust for people to keep calling him out over the economic crunch, maintaining that he never urged Nigerians to vote for President Tinubu. He said, “I never said ‘vote for Tinubu’. Go and check. I write the things that I know he did in Lagos, and I will put ‘Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu is my candidate or is who I am voting for.’ I didn’t tell you to vote for him. And again, Seyi Law did not make the 8.9 million that voted for him. I am just a number among those numbers. “Yes, do I have influence over some people? Maybe. I used my influence for what I believed in. And I believe that this person is the person that would take us to that Nigeria that I want us to be.” Read the full article
