Human rights lawyer, Femi Falana has said the presidency has no power to stop the planned protest by aggrieved Nigerians who are calling for the replacement of the service chiefs.

 

Falana was responding to a statement by presidential spokesperson, Garba Shehu that condemned the planned protest accusing the main opposition Peoples Democratic Party of sponsoring the march. 

 

While responding to a statement credited to a presidential spokesperson, Garba Shehu, Falana said Nigerians have the fundamental right to demonstrate for or against the Federal Government.

 

He said the statement shows that the presidency is opposed to protests against the government.

Falana said the call for the resignation of the service chiefs is justifiable.

 

Nyesom wike, asks president buhari to warn apc national chairman, adams oshiomhole, to stop making inflammatory remarks.

Rivers state governor, Nyesom Wike, has called on the federal government to warn the apc national chairman, Adams Oshiomhole, to stop making inflammatory remarks capable of destabilizing the country.

 

In a statement by his spokesman, Simeon Nwakaudu, the governor slammed Oshiomole for saying there would be no swearing-in of any governor in Bayelsa state.

 

Governor Wike, who was reacting to the judgment of the supreme court which sacked the apc governorship candidate, David Lyon, as the governor-elect of Bayelsa state, insisted that Oshiomhole has no such powers to make the remarks.

 

INEC is set to present Certificate of Return to the PDP candidate in 2019 governorship election in Bayelsa state, Diri Douye following the Supreme Court ruling.

 

The hope of Bayelsa State Governor-elect, David Lyon’s to assume of office today as the fifth governor of the state has been dashed by a judgment of the Supreme Court.

 

There is also uncertainty in the state on whether the PDP candidate in the November 16, 2019 election, Diri Douye has received Certificate of Return as directed by the Supreme Court for him to be be sworn-in today.

 

Wild jubilation rented the air in Bayelsa State yesterday following the Supreme Court’s nullification of the election of the State governor-elect, David Lyon, and his Deputy, Biobarakuma Degi-Eremieoyo.

 

A five-man panel of the apex court led by Justice Mary Peter-Odili ordered INEC to withdraw the Certificate of Return issued to the APC candidates as the winners of the governorship election and issue a fresh Certificate of Return to the candidate of the party with the next highest votes.

 

By this ruling, the party with the required constitutional spread of votes in the results of the election is the Peoples Democratic Party.

 

The apex court upheld the November 12, 2019 judgment of the Federal High Court in Abuja which had disqualified Degi-Eremienyo in the election for submitting forged certificates to INEC.
