“The rascality both Nigerian Legislatures and Judiciary must be checked more especially by the opposition parties but unfortunately opposition exists only when election come closer and shatters once after elections”
The Legal Contention.
Trying to meet up the constitutional requirements which are the ratification by the ⅔ majority vote of the National Assembly in favour of the emergency declaration, the National Assembly has once shown her hellbent on unconstitutional process just to play by the cards of the tyrant president.
The constitution specifically states a ⅔ votes which means 72 votes in senate and 240 in house of representatives. This means that a counted votes must be done for ascertain the real votes voted.
Today a myriad session playing the script of both wike and his cohorts (allegedly)has just been displayed. The method adopted by the senate President who opted for a yes or no (by voicing) knows fully well that such is not constitutional and totally negates the section 305 of the constitution.

The rascality both Nigerian Legislatures and Judiciary must be checked more especially by the opposition parties but unfortunately opposition exists only when election come closer and shatters once after elections as they get united by interest which is primitive accumulation of capital even at the expense of their constituents.
