People like this is turning law upside down
This is purely a TV lawyer. He is in the pay roll .
This man has consistently remained impartial in interpreting legal terms on various issues. People are now criticizing him because he's speaking the truth, not what they want to hear. Regardless of your affiliation or whom you support, one of Nigeria's significant problems is the inefficiency of local governments (LGs). Just as the president lacks the authority to control the states, the states shouldn't be allowed to dominate the LGs. This principle should apply across all states. These governors are excessively greedy, to the point where they must be taken to court to grant LGs their autonomy.

Thank you my brother. I love to listen to Tetteh because he has always spoken with facts without being partisan. These obedients are the new problems of Nigeria as they are never willing to absorb facts and fighting ignorantly on social media and on ground in Rivers state. This is sad!
All this mess is caused by the inability of the judiciary to interpret the laws and make definitive positions on contentious legal issues. Conflicting legal positions by the courts is primarily a problem in Nigeria. To the extent that the judiciary continues with its poor showing, the politicians will continue to misbehave.
This man is in line. Those of you against what he has said are also playing down the rule of law. Note, when the table turns, please don’t shout rule of law. The House has the constitutional right to extend. You can only play this down with superior proof.

Yes, they have the right, but if it's in a good reason and conscience. When their master Wike was the governor can they try that? How can people in office be working in support of the person that is no longer in office? You expect the Fubara to open his eyes while they rubbish his government to failure, who will accept that, will you? When the whole River politicians in office will be working against him.

Tietie is confused, the presenter had told him several times that the Rivers High Court had set aside the make-shift tenure extension that was promulgated by the Amaehule-led House of Assembly and he kept saying “ if the law has been set aside” Tietie, the so-called law has been set aside!

Frank Tietie said “He hates to look like he has taken a side” but his arguments show clearly what side he is skewing the law to face. The decision of the state assembly to extend the tenure of the LGA officials is illegal. Period. A state assembly who may even be illegal in itself
This man has political ambition, save this comment.
If their tenure can be extended, can it also be validly shortened? One can not make a law ad hominem. Emmanuel Atuchukwu
Where did arise brought this man from
The maximum tenure for LG chairmen is 3 yrs according to Nigerian constitution. Some states operate 2 yrs and others 3 yrs, but not beyond 3 yrs. During Obj's time, association of LG chairmen tried to get their tenure extended beyond 3 yrs constitutionally but the attempt failed Any extension beyond 3 yrs is inconsistent with the 1999 constitution and a such can't stand.
Emotion and sentiment aside, Fubara should do better, he is an executive governor that was elected, why is he not willing to conduct election so that executive chairman will also be at the local level through elections. It is not good to be surrounded by selfish elders that will always take sides to get their breads buttered only, uninformed youths that will always be willing to take up arms and tribal gingoist that will support anything tribal. All these leads to anarchy. I love sim but I expect more from him. Not fighting for fighting sake. Make peace SIM pls let Rivers breathe.

Get your facts right before you mention Sims name here.now let me ask you.wike when he was governor sacked elected chairman who had 3 months to finish their tenure and he appointed caretaker chairmen to replace them and yet heaven didn’t fall,.river’s state internal generated revenue rose from 8 billion to 20 something billion when fubara came into office, didn’t that surprise you as to where the money was going before. There was absolute peace in river’s state until wike and the 27 ex lawmakers connived to impeach the governor. Tell me what the governor did for wike to plan to remove him.sim is fighting a just fight and God is on his side.at the end of the day wike and his evil cohorts will be disgraced just watch out and see.imagine wike being a lawyer asked the ex lawmakers to resign their membership in pdp and decampe to apc and they foolishly obeyed .that was when karma took its turn on them.as a professional lawyer wike should have known the consequences of that move but God blindfolded them not to see those consequences.now the ex lawmakers are running around to retain their seats.this is pure karma doing its work.
Lol man is hustling 😂
How can you come to a programe with making proper research! 1. You are not aware that the river state high court invalidated the tenure elongation law
That law has been set aside by the court
One of those moments that I have seen Frank T. struggling so hard to make a point about a situation without yelling. I guess this situation is so hard to speak on.
Sim is a good man but honouring more the cheering of the masses supporting him above the constitution. But mind you, the law/constitution will always take precedence when cases are brought before the court.
State assembly have power more than the executive governor number one citizens of the state Nigeria we don't have government is always says Nigeria is I.M.
Nigerian lawyers talks from their bpth mouth Some lawyers said the house cannot extend and these one is saying they can extend. That country is full of OLODO lawyers

extension to conduct election
Have people forgotten one of the thing on the peace agreement is that the gov let the chairmen be. So the gov could not hv set up an electtion.
Simple question- if the state house of assembly can extend tenure of the council chairmen then governors and president’s tenure can also be extended and Tietie started stammering.
Why is Fubara unable to break into the ranks of the pro-wike legislators? Did they take an oath not to go against Wike? Fubara should aim at getting 10 of those legislators, and he will be fine. Come on, there must be a way to penetrate that camp. He should be smart and skillful in engaging people, even his political enemies. I also notice the governor is not a very good communicator. He should hire a very skilled communicator and wordsmith to structure the wordings of his speeches.

If you can do this, you can get people to work for you. Leadership isn't always the wielding of power and authority. It is also the ability to use influence to get people to your side to work for the greater good.

All I see is everyone trying to interpret the constitution the way it suits them. If the HOS are amending for extension do you know the precedent they are laying down to the general country

This lawyer needs to be better informed.
Yes, they have power to do that but cannot extend their tenure when they have been sworn in for a specific timeline. What he is saying is that they could have extended it to 3 years or more 😮😮😮.

You are not paying attention. Obasanjo can't because there was nothing stopping conducting another election during that time. I can tell u, if there was a war that time, the lawmakers would have extended his tenure in accordance to the constitution. The Governor has no excuse not to conduct local government elections. That makes it his fault for deliberately not doing it. Hence the move by the house in Rivers State.

@@Hericoni The truth is that the law extending the tenure was ill-conceived too. The governor has just three months' notice to conduct the election, how is it that the law was hurriedly made when the council chair had over six months in office? That law was made in 2023 and was never a child of necessity.
As long as fubara is not impeached Rivers State should expect more crisis.
There is a problem with your argument, are you saying that a governor can ask the house to continue to extend the tenure of the elected chairman for 8 years without doing any election.
I am here to lean please, tell us where in the constitution and the section and subsections that gave them right to do so and please read it out for more education.

What law does this mad man called Tie Tie wants Governor Fubara to implement. When mad Wike did samething of appointing caretaker committee where was he? Nonsense man! Which Lawmakers is he talking about? Illegitimate Lawmakers who has long lost their mandate by their virtue of defecting? I also blame the anchor who is unable to take him on for not asking salient questions. A group of puppet Lawmakers who lost their mandate can’t make a law for common sense sake.

Wike succeeded most likely because nobody challenged the case in the court as at then. The current situation in Rivers State is totally different as both scenarios cannot be compared to each other. Governor Sim shouldn't follow the wrong doings of former leader(s) and still be portraying himself as being against his/their style of leadership. It's a total aberration!!
This man is giving the wrong interpretation of the law. The question is if the law was made for public good,or to strip the governor the right to appoint chairmen.
Which law are you guys talking about law that does not protect any rights of the citizens of Nigeria
Hope all this noise makers can hear ??it's not by shouting oo wen the time comes all of them go chill like cold water..
How many local govt in Nigeria are run by democratically elected persons? Secondly, what happens if an elected member refused to have extension of office, how do you replace him and where do you find such person that has that status of been democratically elected before to take the seat. It's like this guest opinion is tilting towards pro Wike, but he is being very tactical about it.

The guy is ARISE TV analyst. He is alws balance on his assessment. More so, if you have been elected before and no election has been conducted after you, you have to continue serving (if the house amended their laws) and if you resigned your position, it will be declared vacant until someone else is elected. More so, its not a job appointment, so u can't reject it because people elected you. By the way, all the other governors doing same as Fubara are breaking the law.
When was the law made and what is their intention of making the law and which law makers make the law?. Is this law also made for the interest of River state people. I can also see that River State is estate of one man. I’m sorry for the River state people.

It is illegal for Governors to appoint people to take the position of local government council leaders. Most Governors are doing it in Nigeria, but they do so by breaking the law. Election must be conducted by these Governors and people must be voted into those positions.
