Mr. Lawyer in the studio big shame on you and your law. You are talking rubbish
How
In Abuja, one senator makes law for the equivalent State. 27 lawmakers cross carpeted to another party in Rivers State, they still expected to be people's reps. I hissed.
Henry Ekine is a very sound lawyer! I'm impressed!
Sound legal argument from Ekine.
Fake lawyer
Unfortunately, rivers political crises has exposed how our learned friends (LAWYERS)are realy unlearned .
It is quite unfortunate the argument of Rufus.
@@damiew1708Political and emotional argument
Sim should be allowed to govern. I support the idea that politics should be a part time work.
Senior lawyer my foot if wat we have in dis man is wat senior lawyer is all about. Wen a man take a bribe his conscience can be manipulated by his pay master. D leadership of Nigeria is in d wrong hands in all sectors
Junior is schooling senior
The man in the studio is a disgrace
BIG time schooling but him no want to enter class😅 @@drpaulndioyemike5639
The lawyer in the studio is a disgrace. There’s no where the constitution said that it’s the court that will declare the seat of a legislator who decamped vacant. It’s because of the sit tight nature of politicians and abuse of law by the politicians that makes every matter in Nigeria now is being determined by the courts. Of course, the judiciary loves it, the lawyers collect legal fees and the judges take bribes. That’s why you see unnecessary court case fillings by lawyers and contradictory court orders by judges, even when they don’t have or lack jurisdictions.
It is quite shocking to listen to the argument of Rufus, sounding more of a politician in my view.
That you have been practicing law for the past forty years doesn't make you a good lawyer.
This man way day studio no get truth for mouth again old men oh Nigeria is going 😅😅😅😅
Every person who is educated,is a learned person. You can see that some lawyers aren't better than the corrupt politicians or non-learned person. The constitution and the law had spoken. A lawyer cannot answer simple question, but justifying illegality.
Henry Ekine I give you your flowers because you’re intelligent,articulate and smart upstairs not that charge and bail lawyer who calls himself former head of service.
The moment Mr Rufus talked about " prosperous eight years" it was obvious who his master is!
Head of service that does not know anything good. No pension, no employment, no gratituity, no empowerment. Problem of rivers state.
Mr Ekine God will bless you 🙏
I made sure i paused the ranting of that irresponsible and nonsensical lawyer in the studio to listen to the sound lawyer. People just come on national tv to disgrace their family names with outrageous falsehood.
This man in that studio is a complete charge & bail lawyer
Pppppppppp😊
You are very correct?
Absolutely
Good observation, his 40 years of practice is questionable. Did he wine any case in his 40 years of his practice?
I'm really disappointed in R.N. Godwins, a cerebral lawyer I've always respected for years. That lawyer stated the true position of the law, that all cases of the State Assembly mustn't be before the Federal High Court.
The fact that he's a Wike man doesn't mean he must turn the law on its head.
Dear God please save Nigeria from the hands of dumb leaders, I have never seen leaders as dumb as ours for the past nine years, it’s really sad.
We are in this situation because lawyers and institutions people like this are responsible for worsening political and economic troubles in our dear nation. You and your group are always looking for ways to take advantage even on TV you want to take advantage
Oga, you are only agry with yourself and the truth about is going to die with you because you are already taking side in the matter labelling the past 8yrs in rivers to be a success
Lawyers are a major problem of Nigeria. Criminals!
Mr lawyer what if the 27members who defected had an accident and died will the three members stop to exist?
There was never a confusion in Rivers State with regards to the House of Assembly. 24 plus the Speaker making it 25 Members defected and automatically lost their seats Therefore, the remaining suspended Members must rise to the occasion to save their State. The Speaker who should have communicated with the appropriate authority was amazing the defectors so don't blame the remaining suspended members for their actions. Nigerians must resist godfaherism
Nigerians nd Rivers state in particular, we should not allow wike to destroy Rivers state nd in effect Nigeria in general, Law makers swore affidavit of their defection, their leader made a broadcast about it, they are not children, they blindly followed wike, when ordinarily they could.not have done that, coming back to claim they hav.not deffected looks childishly, Tinubj should be warned, he should not destroy Nigeria because all these happening
I wonder why some lawyers come out to tell lies and twist the laws without alacrity. I'm ashamed of the detected lawmakers from PDP to A PC and say Fubara lawmakers should go to Court..
Kai!
This lawyer has put Godwins in his place. He's really grounded! He knows his law on the tip of his fingers.
This lawyer in the studio is a dunce unfortunately! Its so sad! 😂
I'm so proud of the leaned lawyer , barrister EKINE. A very sound lawyer, unlike the senior nons£nse ! I can boldly say Mr. Rufus has never and can never win a case in a competent court
Oga, point of correction, it's not 32 members since 27 cross carpeted, and only 4 members remained to comprise legitimate members of the house, which the constitution never envisaged will ever happen.
This lawyer is one of the lawyers causing problems in Rivers state
I am SO PROUD of the Ekine Esq. You floored the 40 years at the bar former Head of Service.
Because all this pocket lawyers supporting martins and his cohorts has no point,they go on shouting and shouting and wants to be the only one talking😂😂😂😂😂
this laywer in this studio has no integrity speak from both sides of his mouth. the other laywer is more sound than this so called senior laywer.
oga lawyer, if the ex lawmakers know they are popular, ket them go back to the polls 😂😂😂😂. No body in Rivers State will vote for them 😂😂😂. Mumu law makes. Wike chickens.
Godwins , are you the one saying this? Na waooo! Wonders will never end. I'm really shocked at RN Godwins. First of all, the CA did not confirm anyone as speaker. The court only ruled on jurisdiction (wrongly in my view). No where did the CA reduce power Rivers State High from making orders against its Chief judge.
You know that there shouldn't be a vacuum. 1 1/3 of 4 is enough quorum
The man on eye glass is impair.
This lawyer at the studio is unruly and disruptive. He has obviously allowed his emotion to becloud his sense of judgement. The purported junior lawyer appeared to be more composed and professional.
Pro-Wike you are laying… Return to statusco means go back to where Oko Jumbo is speaker before the court processes
To say that Rufus Godwin is a pastor with the Greater Evangelism World Crusade is a shame. A man whose stayed for eight years where civil servants were subjected to hardship and suffering, then he says it was a glorious eight years. Please, Oga hide your head in shame.
What has his religious affiliation with GEWC got to do with his political views? Respect yourself!
The judiciary in Nigeria is among the problems of the country. They create confusion to remain relevant
That Senior Lawyer is just a waste. Your Junior colleague is more sound and truthful than you
There are two judgements in this case :
The federal judgement by omotosho in favour 27 members .
The appeal court judgement in their favour too
I'm disappointed by Rufus Esq. Disappointment to Andoni people.
Barr HENRY EKINE is a sound lawyer and always speak truth to Power. No mind that your senior colleague in the studio.
You can hear him well that he's worked with the govt all through his working experience no wonder he doesn't understand rigorous matters in law
The court said that Martin Amaewhule is the speaker of England Rivers State Assembly upon which party? Martin Amaewhule and his gangs moved to APC and swear an affidavit that they have moved, so what are they saying to the court now? Martin Amaewhule and his team should go home and rest. They should come back and join the APC or PDP next time. 2027 is just by the corner, they should respect the court order.
We have a very bad media practitioner who deliberately evade asking compelling questions. If they defect, have they not lost their legitimacy of the platform on which they contested their election. Where do one defect from a political party and still want to continue with the mandate he got from that party without going back to his constituency to test his or her p popularity or justification of his action
Do we have judiciary in Nigeria.
The lawyer in the studio came with a partisan spirit. He's just ranting and vibrating. A sign that indicates he came to defend a lie. I didn't even know that he's a lawyer when he was HOS in the civil service.
But your people defected and Rivers State assembly cannot be shut down. They defected and their seats c
It is evident this man in the studio is a pro wike man just listen to what comes out of his mouth
I thought the Nigeria Senate just suspended and recalled Senator Abdul Ninngi a while ago?
By now, for heavens' sake, why can't the federal high court that has the substantive case in deciding once and for all if their sits are vacant or not, despatch this case quickly for the sake of peace in Rivers. If decided for, then let Inec quickly conduct an election to complete the house representation or otherwise the house subsist. The problem is actually with the judiciary lagging the issue, for reasons beyond my knowledge.
This is true, the federal high court should have made their own judgement on this matter quickly, if they truly serve justice in Nigeria. What is the delay for?
If 15 members can make law, 3 members can equally make laws because 15.
Very confusing profession, useless and as anything.
Nigeria is a country ruled by criminals. How can a so-called formal head of services of a State be on national TV and start defending criminality? The law says once you defect you lose your seat. Full stop. Very unfortunate.
It's supposed to be 32 members but 27 seats are vacant so the national assembly supposed to take over and conduct election for the 27 vacant seats
Mr Rufus u no know law.
What led to having three men, its because of the defection.
Are you saying that if all died in plain crash the remaining 3 will lock up the from functions,iis that what you mean,,forget that logi,c
There is comfy sion everywhere in rivers state
Rufus or what ever your name is,if u r a watch dog of the law and u r taking side wuth ills you are against ur function and u shd not be a custodian of the law
This Godwin is a joker.
Three can make law ,let Martin bears for their mistakes.
That lawyer with arsh colored suit should be ashamed of himself,he is economical with the truth just because of his stupid blind loyalist to wike.he just a senior layer for nothing he is not a sound lawyer
That is what the constitution says
If the state high court has no jurisdiction to entertain state matter why is there state high court and what is their value to the state? If mr omotosho rules that the state high court lack the jurisdiction to entertain such matter then the matter should be forwarded to the federal high Court for proper filling.
If NASS had wanted the FHC to have exclusive jurisdiction, it would have included section 272(3) under section 251 where over 15 matters are stated over which the FHC has exclusive jurisdiction. Where the suit does not include the Federal government or its agencies, State High Courts have coordinate jurisdiction. It's left for SC to say this. The CA has no power to curtail the powers of the State High Courts .Only NASS can do that as it's done under s. 251 of the constitution. Section 272(3) confers coordinate jurisdiction in matters pertaining to tenure, etc, of govs or State assemblies. The State High Courts have jurisdiction where the Federal government or its agencies are not made parties as in the Rivers matter.
Pro-Wike so what you are trying to say is regardless of whatever level of impunity or any form of violation that’s committed by the majority members of the house must be ignored, pardon and accepted in other to maintain and keep 1/3 members of the Assembly available at any given time???
Yes , if 1
That Man in the studio is not suppose to be a leader.And he call himself a senior lawyer.
How can a member who was duly suspended become a speaker ?
U go ask question tire............ Wait for answer ya?
How can members who duly defected with an affidavit to back still be members of the house? You defect you lose your seat
This second speaker is not a lawyer, , he is talking rubbish, please Mr chamberlain stop bringing all this charge and bail Lawyers to this platform
Chembelin sadly you are supposed to moderate n not interject when one speaks n be quiet when the other speaks
I know. He is very bad at his job. He likes to listen to himself talk.
Lawyers will come on TV and argue forth and back on the same matter. We don't know which one to believe again. Argument for and against. Barr. Liborious is more sensible than these ones.
What makes liberious more sensible cos he is speaking on behalf of Martin and his co former legislators?😂😂😂
The law is very clear and we can’t keep acting blindly and misleading the public just because we want it to favor us. The lawyer in the studio was very explicit and comprehensive in his analysis of the current situation but on the other hand , the lawyer in port harcourt was putting so much emphasis on sentiments and emotions which is absolutely ridiculous and misleading.
The Martins Chike..faction is the bonafide members of the River state house of Assembly and until proven otherwise by a competent court . Please folks let’s be realistic, Fubara is missing up big time and the ugly side of this is the lawyers and his cohorts keep misleading him and making him vehemently violating the rule of law. The law is very sacrosanct and has grievous penalties for violations so all the people misleading the governor and the governor himself should watch out for the consequences..
Mr senior lawyer, if the man who suspended you also is no longer a member of the house, who is now more member to carry out the business of the house.
You lawyers and the courts in Nigeria are the one confusing the country. Now i know that some of you are political lawyers
Me Prosperous 8 years
Rufus godwin is really a low life charge & bail lawyer! Very dishonourable
Lawyer please go straight to your point instead of talking about sections
Sir Rufus Godwin is an oracle in law! Emotions no go let people get the meat of the gist.
Barr. Henry Ekine isn't arguing based on law but emotions.
Why don't you guys ask about the judgment of Abuja Federal High Court headed by justice Omotosho (FHC/ABJ/CS/1613/2023)
No judgment yet. No parliament can suspend the elected member of the parliament.
@a_excellencyt Contrary to your understanding of the matter, constitutionally the wike group has been expelled and cease to exist as a legislator by their own word having declared resigned from the party that was the platform they were elected
Have you read the certified true copy of this case judgment: (FHC/ABJ/CS/1613/2023)
That man wearing ash coat is bias and misleading.
Martins Amaewhule is the current speaker of the Rivers State House of Assembly as it stands, because of a judgment of the Abuja Federal High Court (FHC/ABJ/CS/1613/2023) headed by the honorable Justice Omotosho. The judgment recognizes Amaewhule as the speaker, and it has not been set aside by a higher court. The Judge directed the Governor to represent the state budget to the Amaewhule led house of Assembly. This is the status quo until a higher court set aside this ruling.
Mr Ekine , how can you call White, Black ?
Are you really watching , the former head of service is being schooled by ekine
This Pro Fubara lawyer with his Ant voice.. Just making noise .. you get Ant voice you go become lawyer.
Sim will learn in hard way
Wike will learn the hard way as well. He will be disgraced!!!
What's the idea behind the support for wike?
Who is this one?
Chen Aline you should stop interjecting people esp in a very rude manner plsss! Common! Let people hear and learn! You are being rude pls!
Fubara is acting on sentiments and now the law, he and his people are trashing blindly, there's a procedure to everything, who decides if any defecting person and gives reason has to vacate? Edison Ehie was on suspension, who called him back to assume responsibility?
Go and sleep.
why are governors not going to court to validate the fact that they have immunity? Your view is part of the problem we have in the local govt system. Governors will tell them to go to court after dissolving elected local officials.
Prosperous 8 years indeed. The lawyer in the studio is the reason the country is stagnant. A man without scruples taking liberty of being a lawyer to be irresponsible.
Rufus ur argument is just like the dwarf debate that one dwarf telling the other am talker than u r, go and sleep and stop contradicting ursef
Chamberlain is the most unintelligent journalist in Nigeria.
Rufus Godwin God will not forgive you, wike and the others who rendered our state useless and will not allow this man clean the dirt
This Rufus should be ashamed of himself, He does not know anything.
And you too with ignorance conclusion
Fubara is a curse to himself. From all indications , he created the problem by himself to humiliate Wike who help him into power. The situation is with him.
No wike no rivers state
There was Rivers state before Wike and MUST be Rivers state after Wike.
God bless and guide the president of Nigeria
The former head of service provided clear and detailed responses regarding the position of the law. However, it is anticipated that many individuals will disagree with him due to their negative feelings toward Wike. These sentiments are based on Wike's actions against Atiku and Peter Obi. It is important to note that while I do not endorse Wike's actions or politics, it is crucial to adhere to the law. It is a well-established fact that no lawmaker has ever defected and gone home. The matter typically goes to court, as lawmakers must explain their defection. Subsequently, it is left to the court to agree or disagree with their positions for defection.
When you defect, you should go home with pride as this is how it should be
Rufus Godwin is sound.
