A Federal High Court sitting in Kano, presided over by Justice M N Yunusa has nullified the candidature of the Abia State Governor-elect Dr Alex Otti and all the candidates of the Labour Party in Abia and Kano States.

The court ruled that their emergence was not in compliance with the provisions of the 2022 electoral act.

A copy of the judgement delivered by the court was obtained Friday morning by DAILY POST.

The Court in Suit No FHC/KN/CS/107/2023 filed by Mr Ibrahim Haruna Ibrahim against the Labour Party and the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, ruled that the failure of the Labour Party to submit its membership register to the INEC within 30 days before their primaries renders the process invalid.

“The party that has not complied with the provisions of the electoral act cannot be said to have candidate in an election and cannot be declared winner of an election; this being so, the votes credited to the 1st defendant is a wasted vote,” the Judge ruled.

what an abuse of court processes!!! The court and judiciary has started beating the drums!! sham

.....emotions don't win elections!

This drama no too much?

this is just the beginning.
You don’t want a mandate given to Lamidi Apapa by a court of law,yet you are crying of a stolen mandate? Lawlwessness at its peak.So if Obi doesn’t win at the court of law,you will do what exactly?There is an answer to every mednesss.

It will never stand.....

Lamidi Apapa is like an elephant in a glass shop. A lot of diplomacy has to be applied here because he can destroy everything, he has nothing to lose. Alex Otti should reach out to him ASAP! *my 2cents

So, what is the next thing?

They should move this one to joke session

na trouble them just won cost

The LP is not bigger than Nigeria

You shall see

The judiciary wants to mess up Nigeria's democracy.

The next revolutionary protest will be against the judiciary.

Waste of time.
All is to distract OBIdients from the Tribunal.

Otti would become Gov come 29th.
Nobody can stop that.

Hope they obey the rule of law, like one Labourer party member said on TVC this morning 😁🤣🤣

Labour party is laid on the foundation of falsehood, intimidation mischief provocation lie mudsling and character assassination.

Abokey Yunusa the Islamic Sharia Judge has given a useless judgment. Appeal court will squash the order of the burukutu-drinking useless sharia judge.

PDP is taking back Abia.smh

Another banger for LP

kangaroo judgement from sharia court. otti mandate is divine no man born of woman can truncate it

The power that is holding down Nigeria progress is fighting hard

Watin concern Mr Ibrahim Haruna Ibrahim in Kano with Abia matter, kai Nigeria judiciary

court is d new cool in Nigeria now

This is serious labouring in vain. Abuse of judges and judiciary in general from top to bottom will now start. Tinubu will not be spared in abuse, they will say he has bribed judges. Obi right now...!

FreeStuffsNG:

PDP is taking back Abia.smh

It's not possible. If the person that brought up the case did not contest in the Labour Party primary election in Abia state, then he is a busy body, a meddlesome interloper, hence it will be thrown out at the Appeal court.

Labourer without pay…bunch of forgers and emergency ticket hunters.

Meanwhile their former their vice-chairman (before Obi hijacked the party) has approached the Supreme Court to declare him party chairman just this morning…💣💣

Elu peeee.


PETHIEF OBI and his CO-TRAVELLERS in PDP who migrated to LP to displace LAMIDI APAPA who has been in the party for 21years within 30days.The messiah of Nigeria according to their own Bible didn't participate in labour party primary, he just bribed Abure and Co and became Labour party flag bearer
