Rivers: 27 Lawmakers Have Automatically Lost Seat, Any other Agreement is an Aberration - Adegoke
Вставка
- Опубліковано 12 тра 2024
- The Constitution is clear regarding the defection of lawmakers. The Court of Appeal and Supreme court have made pronouncements on this matter. Whether the defectors comprise the total members of the house or a fraction the law mandates their seats to be vacant. This political situation might be a gain for the APC, but legally, it is a disservice to democracy
Kunle Adegoke, Senior Advocate of Nigeria

Arise tv should hold unto this man for future unbiased discussions
Arise news finally brought someone who gave an honest and unbiased analysis- with rooms to provisions .
I'm impressed too👌
You can see that he's a clergy man
This man is very sound and truthful
The hand of God is what makes this law makers to defects to APC. If not Fubara for be in hot soup by now. God just want to tell wike that his God
I am telling you 😂
Exactly, cus on a normal day wike would have not made such a mistake.
Na hand of God true true 😂😂😂
I tell you 👍
True. I just thought about this your point. They would have messed up Sim Fubara’s policies passed to the assembly. To all who want this country to remain backwards, God will keep making them to make mistakes that will bring the right persons who will work for the common man.
Absolutely
His Lordship Adegoke SAN is a man of integrity hand of God is on him.
Wayray say “Lordship”. He’s not a judge, lmao
Amechi and Tonye Cole will not even accept them into APC. So they are in big trouble. They have destroyed their political careers with their own hands.
They allow them if only they will betray wike
Amaechi's APC group has been edged out of Rivers' APC. Ganduje Dollar has appointed a caretaker. Greedy ex-gov Wike is now controlling both the rivers APC and PDP.
Was laughing at other comments until I read yours. At least you are better informed
hahaha I pity the newbie state Rep who hasn't stolen from the previous government , they would be chewing their tongue now. 🤣🤣🤣🤣
They have been accepted .
Wike will go down politically amen
Fubara will do half or 1 term . Nothing go happen . Amen? Leave God alone ooh . GOD NOT DAFT LIKE YOUR PARENTS.. WHEN WIKE WAS RIGGING FUBARA IN ..WHERE WAS YOUR USELESS PARENTS?
Amen
Wike is down already 😅😅
Wike will know no peace unless he repents 😂😂😂
@@KO-xp6bw People wey never know wetin den go eat for dinner de talk say Wike don de down. For this Nigeria politics. MAKE UNA DE LOOK.
I thank you, for saying thr truth,You are a San.
SAN Adegoke, thanks for your honest contribution to this discuss.
Sound and unbiased response
The first time seeing SAN standing for the truth and being sincere about his speech not trying to turn the law upside down . God bless you sir 🙏
This man can defend his profession anywhere, he calls a spade a spade.
You're Really a Man of God! May you increase in Truth in Jesus name
Amen
Thank you Mr Adegoke. You have proved that education is not a scam and I hope our young people will listen and appreciate the power of learning 👍
This are the type of people this country needs to be in power rather than the ones there now
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂,he might change wen he gets there!
Wike was OK until he failed presidential bids for PDP.
Seeing Wike today working under Mr Tinubu he openly abused on air. So Nigeria and Nigerians are yet to practice true democracy.
This is truly a learned SAN. Very truthful. When I hear people like this I know Nigeria still has hope. Wike has fallen into the bottomless pit he dug for Rivers State.
Very unbiased commentary... God bless you Sir.
Imagine if this Sane Attorney is appointed to the Nigerian Supreme Court. But the evil demons will never allow this talented, sane, good man to be in such entity. May God bless you sir. Truth is as pure as snow
He will join them making the judiciary look cheap. Don't be deceive by his English
😂
They will still contaminate him.
dont forget that pple are generally honest if they have nothing to gain or lose. he has no dog in the fight
These man his speaking the truth and I like him for saying what is right no minding they are one of them joining the APC
When the lawmakers dnt know the law that is what you get
This is absolutely greed. You sold a house to a friend you packed out of the house and you came back to reclaim the house that you already sold to your friend that is criminal.🤡
Very soon wike will be a story just like amechi
Amaechi is now forgotten
@@ezenwastanleychuks6159 yes forgotten use and dump by buhari
I pray he know this, and stop looking at his chest😂
Dr Abati, it is the responsibility of the executive to enforce the law. This is what the governor has done. So the 27 lawmakers should approaxh the court if they are injured by the executive action
God bless you man of God for saying the truth.
Look at the dressing of the SAN, which is a very honourable dressing of a professional and perfect gentleman
It's only God that will bless this man for his unbiased and sound view over this matter
Most intelligent analysis I've heard in a long while, God bless you Mr Adegoke SAN
What I don't understand is why these former law makers are disturbing the peace of the state. I am told that they left on their own, by their, own, with their own. Did the Governor use juju on them? Please enough is enough. INEC should do the needful!
😂😂😂😂😂
No be juju be dat 😁?
They are half idiots and wanting to become full idiots after joined APC .
If the majority of the Legislators have lost their seats, another election must be held so that the River State can be governed in line with the Federal Constitution.
Thank you.
Well understood and may God bless senior advocate Adegoke for saying nothing but the truth, this kind of man should be at the top in our judiciary.
Excellent in defending democracy without political affiliation sway.
Foolish jide should listen to this man,,this is how really man talk unlike jide who always base his judgement on nepotism and favouritism, he already sold his reputation base on poor judgement
Jide is a parochial and quack Journalist of the *tvc*
Do you still waste your time to listen to TVC?
Very objective analysis.
Thank you SAN. God bless you real good for saying the truth 👍👍👍. They should allow Fubara to govern the state because the people are happy with him. God bless our governor
God bless the SAN
Apt. At least there is one remaining normal APC member. God bless and keep you SAN.
Is there democracy in Nigeria? Do we have courts in Nigeria? Has Tinubu not totally crushed the rule of law in Nigeria?
I tire my brother
My desr Ayo, Tinubu intervention was never peaceful intervention but aggevated the problem. This is because Fubarac was forced to sign all that benefited Wike and APC.
The court allowed all kinds of illegalities during last election,hence politicians think they can do anything and get away .Akpabio , lawan ,przdent, their illegalities was aided by the court then has breeded impunity ,so let the judiciary correct what it started
Lawmakers who don't know the law. We are in trouble. We have lawmakers who don't know that defection means lost of seat and they still went ahead and did it. Nigeria!
Adegoke Kunle San. Is right and he spoke so well. Those 27 former members are no more legislature it's illegal to operate themselves as assembly members. I think Governor Sim Fubara is right to changed the venue. Because as the Chief Security officer of his state. He's acting according to his security details. Fubara must never compromise his stands because he's dealing with those who has no respect or regards to law or the constitution. Otherwise they'll never had decamped without knowing what the constitution says about their actions. But they do not care.
Now that the constitutional sitting place of of the Legislative Assembly is not available for use, where can the legislative business be conducted?
U de mind the half baked analyst? What garbage fixation of legislative venue is he talking about. Is he oblivious of the declared structural defects affecting the Rivers Assembly? Mtcheew
PLEASE DONT PITY OR FEEL FOR THE DEFECTED LAW MAKERS THEY ARE NOT THE POOREST OF THE POOR IN NIGERIA OTHER PEOPLE WHO WILL BE READY TO WORK FOR THE PEOPLE SHOULD BE GIVEN A CHANCE TO WORK
God bless you sir for your honest analysis
Why is Wike parading himself as the god of River State. Is he the first governor of the State? Can't somebody call him to order? Thank God he's a minister, what else does he want?
The world is watching.
This SAN is very sound. So honest and straight forward. Constitutionality should be maintained
Abati will never be on a truthful lane.
Because the truth is a bitter pills and Dr abati is not ready to swallow.
Low key abati still a pdp man I swear
He is a terrible fellow and corrupt politicians who always try to posture himself as a legal practitioner
I always skip him talking most times
Finally, we have an honest adult in the room. Such an unbiased analysis is currentlt so rare in Nigeria. God bless you honorable SAN. It was so refreshing listening to you..❤
SAN, your analysis in this case is simple and honest... even a layman can understand you better because the truth was spoken.
For the first time, truth and honesty!
I am always glad when lawyers speak on the law and not on technicalities. Thanks to this SAN for standing on the side of the Law.
Wike disintegrated PDP and partially moving towards disintegration of APC...N. W is on a mission...! APC be wise!
Las Las na Wike go bury PDAPC
Am sure Dr Abati would have been disappointed by the response of learned council. His tone tell his position but we are grateful for men who can tell the truth without bias. No need to reinterpret a care already exhausted to the Supreme Court. Rivers has only 3 legitimate lawmakers as at today. That is the position of Law. Shikena
😂😂😂
QED
Ayo is beautiful in green,true daughter of the motherland..😊
This issue has been lingering for decades without any soluction, is it that we don't have a functioning constitution or people are bent to tell the world how lawless we are, it is very unfortunate.
No constitution , no democratic Nation. The constitution must be UPHELD if our COUNTRY must attend Nationhood. This situation needs no political solution but strict adherence to the constitutional provision tangential to the issue astake.
Na dis type need to be judge in nigeria I swear he will say it d way it is .... good man ..ur kids will be proud of u sir
This section of the law ought to have applied when speakers, members of the house of representatives, and Senate were defecting enmass in the last dispensation. This should be sustained, in a bid to grow our democracy. From Goke Awoyemi.
God is wonderful
Abi oh Rufai! Ask them oh! When illegalities have been approved from the top in Nigeria; who get mouth to be talking about upholding any laws, rights or constitution! The mess is from the top! Let’s stop wasting our saliva! All the chief injustices in Nigeria are to be blamed for the suffering upon the masses in Nigeria and the wrath of God will visit them and their lineages
Amen and Amen
The House of Assembly building is no longer standing so how can they sit in the assembly building
Well explained. God fatherism and greed are problems of Nigeria. The earlier we destroy the evil the better for Nigeria. Well done Arise TV.
What about Governors defecting from other party's to APC, eg, Rochas Okorocha from APGA to APC?
Why didn't Court in Nigeria prohibit governors from retaining their governorship position after defected? Why did APC just came and destroye Nigeria?
Thats where his immunity comes in, which they don't have
Insightful!
Another Angel from the bar...God bless You Sir! 🇳🇬🙏
Please, I need some education on these issues. How come legislators can leave and not keep their seats, but Governors can do the same and keep their position?.
Very unbiased analysis.
God bless u Sir, for saying the truth to power
Sound legal analysis in relation to the ongoing political crisis
The contributions from Mr Adejoke SAN is amazing
rufai will a good question,,,always top notch
Thanks Mr Adegoke SAN. For speaking the truth
A man of integrity has spoken!!!
Truth is straight and simple.Dr Abati is confusing me sometimes.
I always skip him talking
😂😂😂
Chaiii Lawmakers done dey sacrifice Donkey 🫏 and horse 🐎🐴 ooo😂😂😂
Naija funny diaaa
Thank you sir for your unbiased analysis.
God bless n keep you for us.
Very good👍! Mr Sim should learn from Obaseki, how he positioned Oshomole and the law makers that were loyal to him.
Obaseki use their eyes see shege😂😂
I pity APC , because Former governor will also destroy their party as he has done to PDP
You have ends the Respect of Nigerians.
What is it that is causing delay in the court of appeals in handling it the case
Dr Abati, is on the wrong side of this issue. No man is perfect.
God bless you SAN for saying the truth.
Your head is on fire sir
I Like this rufai
I like the raw question
After hearing this man’s analysis/unbiased commentary, I now ask, is Fashola also a SAN?
Dr Abbati,please let follow the constitution,pl therebis no need 109 has said it all,as the 27 law maker defect, the court will putit to them it is clear, they have lost thier seeat
Why is this same law impotent when Senators and Federal representatives defect?
Let Abati hear every precepts from this legal luminary
It's a good interpretation of law specially for those of other lawmakers who want to jump ship while abandoning people's votes given to them willingly
Mr. Adegoke epitomizes what a SAN should be -- apolitical, unbiased, and knowledgeable/articulate on constitutional matters -- rarely do I see Nigeria-based lawyers conduct themselves (on tv/UA-cam) as has Mr. Adegoke. His membership of APC notwithstanding, he cited authorities from the highest courts of the land in faulting Amaewhule and gang's claimant to still being legislators, after their defection from PDP, as well as in calling out governor Fubara's illegality in tampering with the legislative building.
Reuben Abati approaches legal matters like a first year "C" law school student, I doubt that Abati has practiced law a day in his life -- he is injecting irrelevancies/speculations in a matter that the Supreme Court of Nigeria has already set a precedent. Haba, if he did this in the US, not only would a presiding judge walk him out of court ignominiously, he would also be sanctioned for legal incompetence.
Kudos to the court for this wonderful judgement.
Ike gwuru
You are a true san
I used to think that I was too blunt until I started following Rufai. 😂😂😂😂. @rufai, Sometimes I am too scared for you because you are the public space in an animal kingdom
This is a sound legal interpretation of the position of the law without sentiments
Love you arise tv. But rufai you are funny
Wike is the culprit here, he is the one causing confusion.
Brilliant man, great analyst
One of the few honest people in APC
What can we say about legal authority as it relates to when there is a proof of crisis in the party.
I will ask Rufai to re-phrase his question about President to have been commit illegality by asking the Legislators to function. The Rivers State people of different parties were well represented in the conversation. No one has ever come out to say he/she was forced to sign that agreement.
Thank you Rufai
A person who voted for a candidate of a political party has locus to sue if the person defects to another political party.
