Uncle Jide, I've watched you with keen interest over the years and I'd like to thank you for your role, and comments so far. However, in this Rivers HOA matter, permit me to share my opinion. I would like to respectfully express my disagreement regarding the need for the court to declare the seats vacant. The Constitution is explicit on this issue: when lawmakers defect from the political party through which they were elected, they automatically lose their seats. This interpretation does not require judicial intervention. The courts typically become involved only when a party, in this case, the defected lawmakers, seeks to act contrary to constitutional provisions. My primary concern lies with this APC's infested judiciary reliability in delivering sound judgments. We are watching. Thanks
With due respect, this is incorrect.The constitution also puts conditions that can validate such defection. So until that is determined by the court, we cannot say the lawmakers have automatically lost their seats
@@akeemelegbeji5300 Exactly! also In addition, Is declaration to defect to another political party plus Affidavit plus people opinions are part of requirements in Joining Political parties in Nigeria under the Law?
The woman was making a whole lot of sense before jide interrupted her,how does this show professionalism,you had your time to speak and u won’t let others talk
Jide i appreciate ur submission in this platform... The court of public opinion analysis and public conscience has nothing to do with the court of law... The law doesn't associate with emotions period..
Jide spoke for 12 minutes out of 14 minutes allocated for the issue without allowing the other guest to contribute. It might be best to let Jide handle the program on his own if he continues to dominate the conversation and not give space for the invited guests to participate.
Jide you don’t know what your are talking about. It is not the responsibility of the court to decide if martins and co has defected,it is their personal decision.what the court has to do is to determine wether they are still members of the house after they voluntarily defected. You have reduced yourself to nothing
@@walatabig So what should the governor do? Beg them to come back? Those law makers have abused their powers and should be sued. So as a police man, your boss got you upset, you then abandon your duty? They tried to lay the state handicapped...
@@bondinyang7088 what are you even saying? How can someone that is dead come back and say he's not dead? What kind of argument are you putting forward. And besides defection is not an offence. Did you read anywhere in the Nigerian Constitution that defection was an offence?
You're the most foolish person left on earth for this stupid comment. Why would some come online to comment on what you lacked knowledge of simply to play to the gallery.
If INEC is not complying with their civic responsibility then the Rivers state people should go on one day protest to demand INEC to do the needful. This is the way forward and very urgent action please.
So what has Jide said wrong that everyone is insulting him? He just said the courts will decide the case,,period. We should stop being sentimental about issues!
Anyone supporting mr. Wike will always love to hear from this mr. jide! With the present bulaba in our judicial system I dont think any good judgment will come from them. One thing is certain, A day will come when we all will stand before the Ultimate Judge to give account of all our deeds here on earth.
I like the way BKO is dishing it out to some rodents in the comment section. They are really pained because BKO failed to say what they will like to hear. But truth to be told, he says it the way it is. Nigeria is not a Banana Republic where only 4 members of the house of assembly of 31 members to control the affairs of the state. Let the court decide the fate of the members and the gov.
This thing is very technical. The members were till now havent been defected with formalities needed to do so. Only mentioning it has no weight and i believe that was why PDP had to discontinue the case and proceeded to find legality to how the few members left will continue to run the house. At the end its still the court that will settle the whole issue. INEC can only conduct poll if court declares it.
Unfortunately, Uncle Jude, you are wrong this time. The Constitution empowers the speaker to declare their seats vacant of he considers the prequisites to have been satisfied. However, anyone aggrieved can proceed to court for redress.
I stand to be corrected. Have there been a situation in Nigeria where a house of assembly of over 27 members with all principal members defected ? I believe the answer is NO. So how and when did the house sit and declared their seats vacant and elected another speaker?. I maintain that the only solution of this rivers problem is the Court. Any other thing is self help, which is unknown to a democratic system of government.
Haaaa, for your dirty mouth. Calling b.k.o. a half-baked journalist . Not even your pay masters will say that. You need to have your brain checked ASAP.
Since Jide swore in the name of God, without fear that Tinubu won the 2023 elections, , we don’t need to look far to know what is trailing him. I hope he has asked for God’s forgiveness!
@@ibrahimahmedolawale6500 It’s not a question of una usual famed bigotry since 2023 elections.. if you’re smart , you will know he has a supernatural case to answer. Buy over this case and see😳
It is ridiculous that the moderator on this show is still talking about factions AFTER the court of appeal has decided the lawful house of assembly. Jide is known for integrity but I am appalled at the disgraceful partisanship of some journalists at TVC!
Very biased man. He keeps asking where in the world do 4 law makers sit. But he didn't ask where in the world that lawmakers defect and the defection supported by court affidavit and public announcement, yet such men remain lawmakers, and later claim they never defected? Where in the world. The biased journalist wouldn't talk about it. These are the people that continue to parade Nigeria as a banana republic. The Supreme Court has ruled that losing seat upon defection is automatic, and a journalist can't overcome his sentiments a in public platform. The ondo lawmakers that he cited, he seems to forget that their seats were declared vacant upon defection and they never operated as lawmakers even as they challenged the case. Till now, they never came back. He is hanging on judiciary because they know how it works today. The right thing to do in Rivers State is for INEC to hold by election to fill the vacant seats of the the lawmakers who have defected to APC. Simple. In the meantime, the remaining members of the house will be functioning.
That's the emotion he is talking about. They took the case to court, let the court decide. people went for years to school to study law... 5 years!! you think na emotons dem go read there?? let them prove there case!
This man and co- travellers were defected to APC and there seats remained vacant under the Law what right do they have to declare others peoples seats vacant?
BKO should allow other people to express their opinions rather than talking over them. The woman was making sense with her analysis and querying the position of the judiciary in the matter, but she was not allowed to drive home her statement before she was interjected abruptly.
Mr Jide first of you started by saying that it was the court that will settle that problem, but you suddenly started passing gurgment. Most times TVC news are always bias, there was never a time the 3 members said they are going to continue carrying on the job of assembly alone, the Martin amehule group decamped, and the remaining members wrote to INEC to conduct election, but INEC could not, Jide you cannot tell me for the fact that three members cannot precise over the assembly therefore that the amahule faction that have decamped long ago should be legalised. The best thing to do here was to conduct election, but in the absence of the election the assembly must go on, you cannot lock up the assembly because some members decamped that's not normal
Madam may God increase your knowledge more and more jare. Uncle on this matter didn't address any single truth about this matter. Such has happened somewhere before. Must we be going to court to determine d matter we have a previous examples? Madam God bless ur knowledge
This Jide self did not represent his name 'Otitoju' because the APC owns the court, so everything goes to court; how long will the judiciary continue to dictate our democracy. I am a journalist who used to look up to Jide, but since APC came into power, Otitoju has turned to 'IROJU'
Jide is wrong with the analogy he made. Why does the judiciary not decide the winner of a presidential or gubernatorial election after the poll process? The same way it is written in the constitution that the candidate with the highest votes in an election wins is the same way it is written that those that change political parties automatically lose their political seats. Why do we need the judiciary to validate one and not the other?
Jide didn't point to the defections of those lawmakers. What's your view about that? But the court already ruled. Defect and loose your sit. This is the position of the law.
Where in the world Jide have you seen house of assembly persons publicly declared that they have defected to another party and still claim they are still in the party that gave them ticket you people should try to say the truth what goes around come around what ever you wish someone you will definitely get one day
There's a process in democracy, those that claimed to have defected have not written any letter to their party, PDP. They did not filled any form with APC, there's no concrete evidence that their defection has been formalized, all was just a political jamboree to distract the governor. So in the eyes of the law, they're still members of PDP.
The worst part of it is that it happened in the floor of the house,Amuewhule read the letter that they decamped in the floor of the house one after the other in the floor of the house,I don't know why Babajide is saying all this nonsense
@@Kablex001are you saying that in the eye of the law there is nothing we called visual evidence again or are you saying court affidavit is not recognize again by the Nigeria law, please let us stop taking side and follow the rule of law

Partisan politics has blind your sense of morality. Very unfortunate
Constitutional provisions are not always interpreted by the court in a society where the rule of law is respected. The 25 former lawmakers should have vacated their seats since they decided join the APC when there was no division in PDPas the time they cross carpeted. Consequently, INEC should have immediately conducted a bye election to fill the vacant seats. This would have solved the problem of 3 or 4 members running the Rivers house of assembly. Jide as most of the times, was disingenuous in always hammering on 3 the members and not addressing the main issue.
Without any benefit of doubt, 3 or 4 members cannot run a state house of assembly. Many of you didn't see anything wrong in the demolisher of River State house of assembly but you are seeing defection to another party as automatic loss of seat. Leave the matter to the court to decide.
Oga jide are you telling me that if the majority of the house decide to Resign that governance will be stagnant? Anyway Nigeria's knew where you belong.
Someone who talk with emotion and sentiments to the point of not allowing a woman making a valid point to land teaching us about such subjects. Pls go and rest. People already know you
Let's not encourage abhorrent behaviour Uncle Jide. The power play that led to the mass defection was reprehensible. The drafters of the Constitution did not contemplate such wholesale defection, such that the house membership goes below the minimum prescribed and the allowable quorum. So while the remaining members may in theory have the constitutional powers to declare the seats of the defectors vacant, they couldn't validity exercise it because they didn't have the Constitutional numbers to sit. In essence, there is a Constitutional crises. The matter needs to be litigated upon until the supreme Court before we could get a definitive pronouncement on how to sort out this madness. Then a constitutional amendment would be appropriate forestall a reoccurence.
We don't expect you to reason as a person because some of you are just too emotionally soft when it comes to political matters. Only the court that can decide the fate of the lawmakers and the gov.
This lawmakers (27 of them)lost their seats on 11/12/23 being d very day they defected. This is not a controversial matter at all as d constitution backs it up. D constitution is superior to court pls.
Uncle Jide, the supreme court has judge on this matter before. The supreme court is clear by what it means to have division in a party. Is supreme court going to contradict herself? You are not a judge but you are already judge.
BKO is biased and quite hypocritical too. Should we ignore the fact that the 27 lawmakers defected to the APC (when there were no crisis at the national level of the PDP) without any good reason? Then these losers went on air to reinstate their committment to the APC. As if that wasn't enough, they came back to deny their decampment. Where is this done?
That's what you keep telling us when Good luck was there telling Nigerians that Jonathan did these and that until Buhari came and the right thing is not done in Nigeria politics,it is not about multitude.
Jide should keep shut or say the truth for once. Any man picking words is always a perpetual liar. Jide is an APC member looking for APC food. So Those decamped should be recognized by the governor.
Not even the Judiciary can make them come back. Jide should stop deceiving himself thinking his yoruba judges will make them come back or be accepted by Rivers people. They are already rejects of the state.
Which Jide, the guys that used their mouth and sign affidavits that they are not PDP members are here talking about law and rule of law.Our courts and judiciary are the problem in this country.
Tinubu’s project 2027 in Rivers which was Wike’s idea of structure as promised to Tinubu is obviously in limbo, unless as usual INEC/state force writes results without voting and corrupt judiciary upholding same criminality and impunity once again, Nigeria will ceases to be.
BKO is just dancing around this matter. The simple question I will like to ask BKO is why he avoided talking about the process that led to why it is presumed they defected. I am sure he watched the video and is aware there swore to an affidavit. Uncle Jide pls next time talk on these let me know where you stand.
Jide should stop his arrogance , All your plans to remove fubara with your messed up judiciary to get rivers to Tinubu , It is better Tinubu ally with fubara to get rivers state for himself in 2027 and kick wike out of your ministerial appointments

So while the remaining members may in theory have the constitutional powers to declare the seats of the defectors vacant, they couldn't validity exercise it because they didn't have the Constitutional numbers to sit. In essence, there is a Constitutional crises. The matter needs to be litigated upon until the supreme Court before we could get a definitive pronouncement on how to sort out this madness. Then a constitutional amendment would be appropriate forestall a reoccurence.
Jide talk the truth once, you are part of people that I believe
You have proven to be bias and people don’t take you serious.
We don't expect you to reason as a person because some of you are just too emotionally soft when it comes to political matters. Only the court that can decide the fate of the lawmakers and the gov.
So, BKO is preempting or courts
This lawmakers (27 of them)lost their seats on 11/12/23 being d very day they defected. This is not a controversial matter at all as d constitution backs it up. D constitution is superior to court pls.
DKO you are correct.
jide's head is now turned upside down 👇
Madam you are making sense, jide has lost it because i don't believe him anymore😊
Am one of your fans on this rivers issues you are on side of wike stop stressing the issues too long ooo
Uncle Jide, the supreme court has judge on this matter before. The supreme court is clear by what it means to have division in a party. Is supreme court going to contradict herself? You are not a judge but you are already judge.
Court that some persons have pocketed in their personal pocket where they decide what happens
BKO is biased and quite hypocritical too. Should we ignore the fact that the 27 lawmakers defected to the APC (when there were no crisis at the national level of the PDP) without any good reason? Then these losers went on air to reinstate their committment to the APC. As if that wasn't enough, they came back to deny their decampment. Where is this done?
Oga is there court in Nigeria?
Baba Jide, please talk about the affidavit of defection read on the floor of Rivers Assembly by the 27 members before predicting rubbish.
Mr jide I like your analysis, most of fubara supporters are too emotional the need to teach how constitional law works not emotional mindset
Jide when is ur appointment coming?
Jide you have failed us
Sorry, Mr Babajide you're the one who is lying.
That's what you keep telling us when Good luck was there telling Nigerians that Jonathan did these and that until Buhari came and the right thing is not done in Nigeria politics,it is not about multitude.
Jide allow her to make her own opinion stop interrupting her please y buyers Jide
Oga Mr jide you are talking rubbish
Though I'm not a politician,..but what's the law say matters ,but many of us based our decision on emotion. Let's wait n see.
Let do come and do the election lets see which state in rivers what wike fail to understand is that fubara learnt well
You all people saying hide is bias do you even no what the laws is fools
What is the judiciary still waiting for?
Jide should keep shut or say the truth for once. Any man picking words is always a perpetual liar. Jide is an APC member looking for APC food. So Those decamped should be recognized by the governor.
Not even the Judiciary can make them come back. Jide should stop deceiving himself thinking his yoruba judges will make them come back or be accepted by Rivers people. They are already rejects of the state.
Babajide God bless you. You are one of the few with good head to see reasons without emotions.
Which Jide, the guys that used their mouth and sign affidavits that they are not PDP members are here talking about law and rule of law.Our courts and judiciary are the problem in this country.
Madam God bless you, Wike will buy the court and judiciary, just de watch.
Tinubu’s project 2027 in Rivers which was Wike’s idea of structure as promised to Tinubu is obviously in limbo, unless as usual INEC/state force writes results without voting and corrupt judiciary upholding same criminality and impunity once again, Nigeria will ceases to be.
Jide is an APC and wike journalist
BKO is just dancing around this matter. The simple question I will like to ask BKO is why he avoided talking about the process that led to why it is presumed they defected. I am sure he watched the video and is aware there swore to an affidavit. Uncle Jide pls next time talk on these let me know where you stand.
Jide your sentimental,, didn't you d 27 lawmakers defects?
Jide, I usually enjoy your analysis on issues, but I think you have to be brief with your analysis to give other guests opportunity to air their view.
Jide should stop his arrogance , All your plans to remove fubara with your messed up judiciary to get rivers to Tinubu , It is better Tinubu ally with fubara to get rivers state for himself in 2027 and kick wike out of your ministerial appointments
How do you defect ? By affidavit, public pronouncement, pls someone should educate me ?
This Jide didn't go school at all
That's why I don't like this jide, you speak for more than 11min and still don't allow the Lady to speak.
Jide can you tell me what is defection
Which court
