Justice Muhammed Adume held that the tribunal was wrong in striking out Adeyemi’s petition on the grounds of technicalities, instead of substantial justice. The appellate court, therefore, remitted the case to the tribunal for “trial on merit’’.
The court further held that the decision of the tribunal that Adeyemi did not file his petition within the time frame allowed by law was wrong and nullified it forthwith. Adume said the respondents did not provide sufficient evidence before the tribunal that the petition was filed late.
The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) recalls that the tribunal had dismissed the petition of Adeyemi, a one-time National President, Nigeria Union of Journalists (NUJ) for late filing. The tribunal Chairman, Justice Akon Ikpeme, had in the ruling of June 18, held that the Kogi West ex-Senator’s case was “incurably defective’’.

ReplyDeleteI used to like Dino and have high hopes about him even being the president someday, but he portrays himself too much as a thug and I don't really think he stands against corruption.
ReplyDeleteDino! Imole de..okunkun para da. No shaking
ReplyDeleteWhat is "Oh".
ReplyDeleteThis chap and afew empty heads like him just wait for Linda to make a post and they will instantly make their empty one word comments without reading anything. They irritate me. Get off the web if you have nothing to say or do.
It should come as a standing rule that No Elected Member of the NASS should be sworn in or be given an committee leadership if they have a petition or a case in Court about their election. Let the National Assembly be truly honourable and scandal free. What happens if criminals get prematurely sworn in and they end up embarrassing the country and their constituency. Imagine that a thief steals the ballot, collects all the initial entitlements and allowances, how do you retrieve those undeserved benefits after his election is nullified by s tribunal? In the case of Dino Melaye, we are already seeing him giving a bad image to the Senate as a bootlicker, houseboy and supporter of corruption. Imagine that he rigged his election, gets a committee post, runs around EFCC with other thieves and legislates against jailing of thieves like him, would that reflect well on the credibility of other Senators? Dino should stand down his recent Publicity Committee appointment until his election tribunal validates him as qualified to be in the Senate. And until cleared, he has no moral right to vote on any debate.
ReplyDeleteLet the law take its course.
ReplyDeleteLol. God catch ham
ReplyDeleteHope his sin not bcos he supported Saraki Pls leave the pples senator alone. Tinubu take note
