In fact, the Labour Party (LP), yesterday, raised the alarm that decisions of the tribunal against its elected lawmakers were clearly in contravention of established jurisprudence and a mockery of the judiciary.
The party expressed worry at the spate of judgments being churned out at the various National and State Assembly tribunals where several of its elected members at the National Assembly have been sacked by the tribunals. LP said it was worried because the reasons for reversing its victories are matters that have been settled by the superior courts in the past.
The party, in a statement by its National Publicity Secretary, Obiora Ifoh, said the issue of nomination of candidates as well as membership, were internal affairs of the party beyond the jurisdiction of courts.
