       Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Ezenwo Wike has declared that the reliance on litigation in the resolution of electoral issues is symptomatic of the failure of the electoral process.
Delivering a keynote address at the conference of the Democratic Process and Electoral Litigation Committee of the Section on Legal Practice, at the NBA House on Monday, Governor Wike said that litigation remains a powerful tool for the assertion of political rights.
He said: "The Electoral process is a serious matter of concern to the citizenry. I regret that INEC and security agencies negatively affect the electoral process.
"Post election matters for redress maybe symptomatic of the prevalence of perceived grievances with the electoral process.
"The way to forestall rampant electoral litigation is not by constricting the right of access to the court as being advocated in some quarters, but rather strengthen the Democratic institutions to engender transparency and respect for the rule of law in the Democratic Process. "
The governor urged lawyers to up their game in using litigation to enhance credible electoral process.
Governor Wike said that litigation has made it possible for the political parties to account for their actions.
He said that the impartiality of the security agencies especially the police is needed for credible elections in 2019. According to him, the partisanship of the police ruined the credibility of the Osun Polls.
He urged civil service organisations to prevail on INEC and security agencies to be impartial.
He said: "It is our collective responsibility to protect the nation's democracy. I urge Nigerians to be vigilant and seek credible polls ."
National President of the Nigerian Bar Association, Mr Paul Usoro (SAN) represented by the Secretary General of NBA, Mr Jonathan Tilde said electoral litigation has come to stay as a means for resolving electoral conflicts.
Chairman of Democratic Process and Electoral Litigation Committee, Chief Ferdinand Orbih ( SAN) lauded the Rivers State Governor for his commitment to electoral reforms through the support for NBA programmes.
Bayelsa State Chief Judge, Justice Kate Abiri said that the litigation can be minimised where the elections are free and fair.
Chief Judge of Rivers State, Justice Adama Iyaye-Laminkanra said politicians should always seek redress rather than disrupt the electoral process .
The event attracted prominent lawyers from across the country including the Governor of Ondo State, Chief Oluwarotimi Akeredolu (SAN)

Special Assistant to the Rivers State Governor, Electronic Media.

  SSANU, NASU threaten strike over withheld salaries The Joint Action Committee of the Senior Staff Association of Nigerian Universities and the Non-Academic Staff Union of Educational and Associated Institutions have threatened to disrupt industrial peace in universities should the government fail to release the withheld salaries of members. The salaries were seized by the administration of former President Muhammadu Buhari during their strike in 2022. The unions, in a joint letter signed on Friday by the President of SSANU, Muhammed Ibrahim and General Secretary of NASU, Peters Adeyemi, questioned the rationale with which the government released four months withheld salaries to members of the Academic Staff Union of Universities but failed to release the withheld salaries of non-academic staff. The unions noted that they would no longer be able to assure the government of industrial peace in universities should the amounts owed by the government are not released. Earlier, the uni...
