Who Will Save Obaseki from His Swindlers?
I continue to wonder why outgoing Governor Godwin Obaseki and his deputy would not realize that they are being swindled by those who are urging them to continue to pursue their gubernatorial ambition on the wonky, expired and empty platform of the PDP .
If those who want to enrich themselves through the scam disguised as PDP governorship ticket would not allow them realize that what PDP sold to them was an expired ticket , the June 26, 2020 judgement of the Supreme Court in the case of Uche Nwosu of Imo State ought to have removed their blindfold .
This most recent judgment on the subject indirectly warns outgoing Governor Obaseki to stop chasing liability .
The apex court crafted the judgment so explicitly as if it was meant for the duo of the governor and his deputy to understand what faith awaits them .
The Supreme court nullified Uche Nwosu nomination in AA on the account that he had contested for nomination under APC.
As if to explain itself further to the outgoing Governor, the Supreme Court elaborated on how the relevant law nullifies the PDP candidacy for their understanding when it elaborated thus :
"The spirit of the law forbids anyone to contest for nomination under two or more parties in same election
or even start the process of being nominated by procuring the nomination form."
How does Gov Obaseki hope to escape the last clause?
The clause has rendered the expired PDP governorship ticket a counterfeit.
Obaseki procured APC nomination form, filled and returned same and to crown it up, attended APC screening which he failed .
By the clause under reference, the Supreme Court seems to have told Obaseki to stop wasting his time and resources .
So also does it sound a warning to Obaseki's supporters that they are about burying themselves along with a dead body because they are blinded by temporary pecuniary sentiment.
I humbly request whoever will dispute my submission here to help interpret the clause :
"or even start the process of being nominated by procuring the nomination form ".
Tell us sincerely how our outgoing governor is not affected by the above clause.
Whoever is being deceived by his neighbour may survive but whoever deceives himself is on a suicide mission. Let's watch and see where desperation, catankerousness and sadism are leading Governor Obaseki to.
Like the Benin elders would say "hasty wrestling and fatal fall go together ".
The earlier the outgoing governor starts writing his handover note, the safer for him.
