President Muhammadu Buhari and the Attorney-General of the Federation, Abubakar Malami have dragged the National Assembly before the Supreme Court over Section 84 of the Electoral Act, 2022.
In March, both chambers of the National Assembly rejected the President’s request to amend the clause in the electoral act. The duo told the apex court that the Section 84 of the Electoral Act, 2022 is inconsistent with the provisions of sections 42, 65, 66, 106, 107, 131, 137, 147, 151, 177, 182, 192 and 196 of the Constitution of Federal Republic of Nigeria, 1999, , as well Article 2 of the African Charter on Human and People and Peoples Rights.
“A DECLARATION that having regard to the clear provision of section 1 of the constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, 1999, as amended, read together with section 4 of the same Constitution, the legislative powers vested in the Defendants do not permit or empower it to make any other law prescribing additional qualifying/disqualifying grounds for election to the National Assembly, House of Assembly, Gubernatorial and Presidential election outside the express constitutional qualification...

If that's the case, what are the lawyers & legislators doing about this? To do nothing means complicity in abusing the lawa & constitution of their country. Or have they all being bought? I give up!
It will be imposible
Buhari would rather buried Nigeria and completes her funeral before stepping down! Remember when he said this before becoming president 👇
The case will not receive the blessing of the court
Selfish f**k***
Nonsense
Why
Some people are just ful of shit
a country that leaders capitalize on the disunity of their people to keep them in oppression and poverty. if we were the way we were before 1914, there wouldn't have been all these mess. same thing lugard did, is what our leaders are still holding on to. EndNigerianow
If this is true then Nigeria is not a country thanks.
OYO
Jokers. 'A kipe'. In our lifetime, we will resist the Devil in all its ramifications.
So SHAMELESS..HAVE YOU BOTH LOOK AT THE MIRROR OF LATE
Anything goes under APC government.
It is not the matter of wether the law allow them to stay in the office and contest or no, the issue here is the person who gave them the job, wanted them to resign latest by tomorrow if they are contesting any political office. So court ruling will not help them.
Madness!
If this glorified court clerk likes, he can keep plotting, it will never happen. He should be wasting his time
Naija people no be am. Just only Internet fighters. Mtchewwwww
Are this two people indispensable or is there any particular thing they are doing for the President that some other people cannot or may not accept to do? Nigerias will like to know.
All thieves and liars including Nigerian leaders already have their place in the leak of fire😠 evil men
so they can continue stealing
so they can continue stealing and plan to rig
Penalty into throwing
He who pays the Piper dictates the tone.
Is it by force.

You see this man, Attorney whatever he is... he is one of the numerous reasons this country failed
Na wa ooh... Father Lord please bless Nigeria🙏🙏
Thieves 🤪👌
Thunder deal with you there
This is what they value more than anything I hate you people.
How does this ur information or news sound to u? So silly! Smh
🤔Who else thinks there is a plan here?
History will remember Buahti as the worst president in the world
In justices, for what reason, Mala I should handover to the Perm/Secretary Min. Of Justice while Emefiale handover to his deputy, if both of them dead now, you mean their office Wil cease to exist.
u can't b in d business of professional journalism n have evil mind, otherwise u end up disgracing yourself n d business. Sahara reporters have been built 4 evil reportage dat in their quest 2 disseminate evil they forgot dat is d work of d national assembly not d supreme court
And Nigerians are quietly condoling these acts of impunity There was indeed a country.
This madness must not be allowed.
Animal kingdom! Ndi oshi. FreeMaziNnamdiKanuNow ReferendumNow BreakUpNigeriaToSaveLives BiafraExit OduduwaExit
I can't wait for this man to leave in 2023,he is very annoying
I know Malami is waiting for Supreme court interpretation before he proceed to his governorship ambition.
See how Dem dey Chang law n constitution to favour n suit Dem. As men wey dey above d law, d law s unda dem
Nigeria is a PLC. Now!
This people don't know that very soon they will step down, and someone will be in the position let's see how they will feel then
Fake news, there is separation of power. National Assembly is not a rubber stamp, while National Assembly make the law the judiciary interprete the law.
These people have turned Nigeria into their parlor. Only God can save us in this country.
Huh 🤔 🙄🙄🙄 This should never be allowed to happen!
Terrorist Government of Nigeria 🇳🇬
You have always been a failure buhari, so am not surprised at whatever comes out from you. Thank you
The last has yet to be heard on this issue, as some of us are not convinced that Abubakar Malami has formally withdrawn from Kebbi governorship race. It appears he is still bidding time, and as attorney general/justice minister can strongly influence the outcome at Supreme Court
Malami is always mentioned in everything shameful and disgraceful. This man has no pedigree or shame at all. AGF indeed!
If it's not madness, tell me why a central bank governor should be partisan. criminals in Nigeria disguising as honourable men. The so-called president leads the bandwagon of thieves.

Jokers
As per no written constitution again in Nigeria Okay
Imagine what they took to court...how can CBN governor be partisan while still in office. I hate cheating
Eweeeeeeeee Haaaa
War go soon start… zoo Hausa/Fulani na problem
The matter was filed on 29 April this year, how comes you only knowing now? It seems the matter is now duplicated, bcx the contentious section 84(12) has been before FH in Abia, and subsequently appealed after judgement. Now taken another turn in SC, all for vested interest.
😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 I said it oooh BUHARI is a disaster oooh
The reason is that 'All animal are equal but some are more equal than others' - George Orwell - Animal Farm.
Imagine such rubbish submission.this country is really a testing rum...what nonsense
Despicable men.
They will just wake up and change the law to favour them, always.
Agenda must Agend .. we are watching the movie !
A black man is a fool for life. Imagine an ordinary British civil servant catriona Laing running around town telling us to accept their fraudulent company called nigeria witout complain & old fools like George obiozor is happy to take pictures with her. Can a black do this in UK.
Something fishy brewing out.
The law bars political appointees like Malami from seeking elective public office or voting as delegates in a party primary unless they resign their positions ALL ANIMALS ARE EQUAL BUT SOME ARE MORE EQUAL THAN OTHERS 😠😠😠🇳🇬
Buhari will never disappoint in foolishness ! These two knew where all the corpses are buried. Another sad day for Nigeria.
Tanko to the rescue Chai Buhari is so useless an Obasanjo would have arrested this man 4 years ago.
Every dry mad for this country,
This could have been a direct order.
Malami is Buhari, which Buhari again?
How's the Attorney-General and the CBN governor different from those that resigned.
No institution is safe or sacred from this government.
They should all step down 👇👇👇👇👇👇👇👇👇👇👇👇👇👇 if they want to Contes
What sort of nonsense is this?
