Lawyer Oba Mabuachi SAN Explains Why Atikus CSU Appeal Is 'dead On arrival' by leanonme82: 11:17pm On Oct 07, 2023
The lawyer had this to say on an interview with Arise TV.

Transcript

Maduabuchi: 'This situation is not as simple as it sounds to the man of the street. This is because the issue the Supreme Court rules are not applicable here because this appeal is not from the court of appeal, it is from the presidential election petition court so don't mistake it for the court of appeal. Court of appeal 63, the presidential election petition Court 65. The presidential election petition court is a court of limited jurisdiction. In fact, it has only one jurisdiction, to determine whether a president is validly elected or not. That is the simple jurisdiction.

It cannot determine whether I own land or not. The presidential election petition Court cannot determine whether I was negligent in driving my car, it is only limited to one thing, and in providing that limited jurisdiction specific rules were made to guide it because of the special and specific nature of that jurisdiction right, so you don't apply the Supreme Court rules generally to presidential election petition Court appeals, you apply the Electoral act, which has told you how you go about it. An election petition is to be presented within 21 days right after, you cannot introduce certain things, particularly if they affect a ground for challenging that election, and one of the grounds of challenging an election is that the person was not qualified.
So if you want to introduce anything after 21days which tends to show that that person is not qualified the law says no, you can't. Once 21 days closes that's all. That's in section 137 of the electoral act, and this is an election that happened in February and today is October 3. How can we be talking of bringing in New Evidence?

Interviewer: So does it start from the day of the election

Maduabuchi: It starts 21 days after the result is declared so...

Interviewer: So that renders all of this uh um it looks to me as if it is Dead on Arrival. Is that what you're saying?

Maduabuchi: Yes, thats the way i look at it.

Atiku Malu Abubakar, dead on arrival, no wonder he called for a so called world press conference seeking help from Obi & Kwakwanso, his case is before the Supreme Court he is asking for alliance?

Technicality or no technicality, Tinubu ought to have resigned by now.

A westerner leader won’t stay a day longer if he was alleged to have had any infraction in his credentials.

My issue is not about the Chicago issue, but the secondary school he claimed to attended when the school hadn’t existed.

Morality demands that he should resign and Keyamo too should resign if he has a modicum of integrity. Reason is because he once sued the Lagos State House of Assembly for failure to prove/impeach Tinubu over fake academic credentials.

How was he alleged and when

Last I checked, CSU released his transcripts and even SSN authenticate his results

So please sir, send me a link to read up on how and where he was "alleged" to have forged his credentials Either in court or by CSU

In 1999 ex senate President Salisu Buhari was impeached and removed from the red chamber after it was discovered that he presented fake Toronto university certificate.
What is so special about Tinubu certificate forgery?
Has our Constitution change overnight?
