    Nigerian lawmakers switch parties like frying an egg. APC member at breakfast and PDP member at dinner .
    After an election, the court judges select who the winner is.
    Dr. Ikoku . Those who are educated are in the minority and those who are less or non educated are the majority from the north.

    Sorry, the APC has claimed them at various times , including the Rivers State Chairman of the APC. You don't have that right.
    Meanwhile, they do not have to join any party after leaving the PDP. Nigerian constitution does not make it mandatory for citizens to join political parties. The fact on the ground is that they have publicly renounced the PDP at several fora including via a sworn affidavit at the Federal High Court Abuja where they claimed they defected on the grounds of a non-existent division in the PDP. PDP does not have to expunge their names from the PDP register to give effect to their sworn affidavit. The affidavit is complete in itself and of itself proclaiming their dissociation from the parent party from which they got elected to their positions in the state Assembly. Having thus abandoned their membership of the PDP, they have automatically abandoned their PDP mandates and have their Pdp owned-Assembly seats vacated

    How lawmakers defect from one party to another. It is very clear. Lawmakers defect from one party to another either by a letter to the speaker of the house or to the senate president to read on the floor or by oral declaration in the house.Secondly, a lawmaker must openly declear his defection before a membership card issue or register. Martins and co are no longer lawmakers as far as the Nigeria Constitution is concerned. Judges should based their judgements on the Nigeria Constitution, not anything outside the Constitution.

    Any culture that dangerously interfere with the culture and way of lives of others must be jettisoned.
    Even if each state will establish ranching, it is for the state and her people who are cow breeders, too.
    It cannot be an exclusive preserve of any particular tribe.
    For example, in the South East, they breed 'Ehi Igbo', goats, pigs, including cross breeding of cows.
    Today, food is scarce because farmers are afraid to work or their farms were destroyed by cows and nomads. We should note that no particular culture or farming is superior to the others.
    In Kano and some northern States, selling of alcohol is not allowed. In some cases, alcohol belonging to businesses are destroyed without compensation. It should be noted that selling and drinking of alcohol is our culture and way of live in the southern Nigeria and some northern Nigeria. You cannot refuse one lifestyle in some part of the country that does not interfere in the privacy of others, but allow lifestyle and culture of others to interfere in the culture and lifestyle of other Nigerians.
    All said, it must be " LIVE AND LET LIVE " for all of us.

    See, it’s not our business whether or not they informed their party before the said defection. The defection was duly announced on the floor of the house of assembly and the new speaker did the needful consequen. In the eye of the law therefore, the argument will be between them and their old or new party, it doesn’t change and cannot change the action already in reaction to the information/notice of defection that was clearly given on the floor of the house during plenary. The law does not require an investigation into party’s activities in relation to defecting members before their departure is accepted. The judge in is biased or maybe ignorant of the facts of the case/the law.
