FORFEITURE IS A FINE LP's lawyers have supplied many US and Nigeria judicial decisions that held forfeiture is a fine. However, I want to simplify this principle to assist people, and possibly our justices, understand it better. Let's start with the basics. 🧵>

As we continue to talk about BAT’s forged certificate, let us remember these constitutional high crimes and anti-democracy offences committed by him &/or INEC, or at his behest: 1. Did not declare Guinean citizenship; 2. Sabotaged a critical national infrastructure ( IreV);

Put on deposition hot chair, he retracted, paragraph by paragraph, all he said here. Even agreed the signature wasn't his. That affidavit is now evidence of obstruction of justice b4 the FBI. Lawyer Afolabi & Co are having sleepless nights now. But you SM urchins are tweeting.🤣

@OluwafemiMaduka @PrinceCaphrel Not of recent. Since the 1950s. Thats all part of the tension..The Yoruba started first & were, without a doubt, far ahead. Igbos took only 25-30yrs, to not only catch up but overtake. By 1960 they’d become the “ backbone” of the civil services, commerce & intellectual life

That deposition is going to be bomb. Up to 7 hours of questioning. I’m hoping to apply to the court to get the video recording & transcript. It’ll cost just a few dollars. The whole world would see it. We’ll not allow Corn Country to distort the narrative as they often do.

I have been screaming about the project. This is the biggest heist in the history of Nigeria happening in plain sight and Nigerians are doing nothing about it. How can issue a contract on a project that is nearly 3% of our GDP, without competitive bidding?

I repeat. The more I review LP’s case before PEPC, the more I’m convinced Tinubu is only marking time at Aso Rock. It’s not if, but when, will he be kicked out? LP’s case on INEC noncompliance is watertight. Still, the cases for disqualifying Tinubu are even more compelling.

Once the Agbado camp noticed that the 3rd-party vendor hogwash wasn't sticking, they engaged rogue BBC reporters. Now they want to run with this BBC narrative: that the INEC certificate was issued by CSU in the 1990s, but the discrepany in the logo was caused by photocopying.

Never seen a more dishonourable university. Read the surprising/last minute objection Chicago State University filed last night to Atiku’s application. Two things struck me: 1.CSU has no honour. 2. We might have grossly underestimated the reach of BAT’s underworld operations.

Angela Liu is brilliant! Liu: you searched the records and collected samples of diplomas issued in 1979. How did you determine they were issued in 1979? CSU: the documents say so. Meaning, BAT’s version says so but bears signature of 1990s president. Therefore forged!

The exclusion of Igbos in the core of Nigera’s governance, is the people’s loss. There is a reason the Obasanjo administration recorded the most consequential economic progress since 1999. It was simple: he was open to tapping talents from everywhere, including, notably, Igbos

From “no structures” to “go to court”, APC made fatal misteps: 1. Mistook PO’s humility for weakness. Man has nerves of steel, uncommon self-assurance & unyielding resilience. 2. Thought they were in contest with a political party, not knowing it was APC v the people.

I’ve just read BAT’s lawyers’ further reply to LP’s written address. Capitulation! You can't make this up! Olanipeku is now tending to agree the FCT is compulsory but what is required is not 25% of FCT, instead 25% of 2/3 of total votes in FCT. In which case, BAT met it. 🤣

The forged certificate aside. After further analysing the CSU Atiku subpoena documents, I’m more convinced Tinubu did not graduate from CSU; he may not even have been admitted there, and his so-called records at CSU were contrived in cahoots with dodgy folks at CSU.

@MissPearls The challenge here is that CSU is more focused on shielding Tinubu than vindicating the truth and protecting the University’s reputation. There seems to be a Pandora’s box ( that could unravel many other things and roll many heads ) they don’t want risk opening.
