As Bola Ahmed Tinubu (@officialABAT) settles into the presidency of Nigeria at Aso Villa, Cheta Nwanze (@Chxta) examines some of his early policy decisions. greycontinent.com/fuel-subsidy-r…
@mezbeloo @GreyContinent @PeterObi @atiku Excellent perspectives, Ameze. Being a non-lawyer, maybe looking at the provisions for 25% of 2/3 of the votes in states and the FCT from an engineer's perspective (we simply complex things😁) may help. So, GIVENS: 1. Treat FCT as a state - so, should have a governor..../1
@mezbeloo @GreyContinent @PeterObi @atiku 2. Governor of the FCT is the President 3. Implication of (2) is that, like all states, the Presidential election is the 'governorship' election of the FCT 4. Governors have to win 25% in 2/3 of the LGAs in their states to win governorship election..../2
@mezbeloo @GreyContinent @PeterObi @atiku 5. The LCDAs of the FCT are equivalents of LGAs of states 6. The implication of (3), (4) & (5) together is that to win the National Presidential election, you have to win the 'governorship' election in the FCT which requires 25% of the votes cast in 2/3 of the FCT LCDAs Not hard?
@mezbeloo @GreyContinent @PeterObi @atiku Simply put, the framers of the 1999 Constitution can be said to have taken due consideration of the mischief. Hence, they were quite clear that to be elected President of Nigeria, one has to win: 1. 25% of 2/3 of 36 states (24) AND 2. 25% of 2/3 of the 6 LCDAs of the FCT (4)
@mezbeloo @GreyContinent @PeterObi @atiku Fantastic analysis. Thank you for this.
