Which primaries did One oversee, the election that produced Machina or the 'election' that manufactured Lawan?

Desperate move to steal someone’s mandate

Would the court stand firm on that. Let us watch because the case is a straight forward case and I wouldn't be happy for the court to abuse their position and redicle themselves more.

Was there no Primaries conducted under the supervision of inecnigeria that produced the Candidates for the various elective offices in the political parties? Court this or court that like for the highest Bidder. So how can those who have never occupied public offices survive?

Your party is definitely an evil party that supposed to be eliminated insha allah

A party of civilian dictators and their enablers. Against the electoral act , many of those who contested for APC presidential ticket later went back to get senatorial ticket etc and Nigerian lawyers and activists are saying nothing.

I doubt if Machina will win this case. If it happen, then there is hope for Nigeria.

I don't see lawan returning back to that seat again

Nigeria does not have credible judges nor has it a court of competent jurisdiction.

Lawan didn't participate , so why fixing date for hearing

Machina will win inshallah. Judiciary must be seen on the side of the people for equity, fairness and justice. Inec shouldn't be a disgrace.

This case has been over taken by events machina had already made inecnigeria list of contestants…

Court need not to fix a date for any judgment, Lawan was a presidential candidate and not senatorial candidate

Lawan will win the case. Anything that APC cannot do doesn't exist. We have not judiciary in this country

If lawan win in Court then their is no hope for the common man in this country.

If Lawan should win this case, then our issues are bigger.

Ahmed Lawan, the rubber stamp senate president.

Lawan did not participate in senate primaries in yobe north he should be disqualified please.

Supreme Court of injustice, you declared Uzodinma the winner, why won't you declare Lawan

Why's the Terrorist Party called APC intimidating this guy? This is a Straightforward case, Ahmad Lawan never participated in any Primaries

Judgement we can predict the verdict already😀

Inec is compromised No name for yobe North. And they listed akpabio which means sooner or later lawan name will be published

🍽️

IT should be the other way round.

Court has been bought
