After What Happened On June 12, 1993, S'Court Said No Court Should Stop Election - Siminalayi Fubara

Rivers State Governor Siminalayi Fubara has reaffirmed the Supreme Court’s stance that courts should not intervene to halt elections.

After What Happened On June 12, 1993, S'Court Said No Court Should Stop Election - Siminalayi Fubara

He made this assertion while reacting to a Federal High Court ruling in Abuja, which ordered a halt to the upcoming Local Government Area (LGA) elections in Rivers State.

According to Fubara, this decision violates a long-established judicial precedent set by the Supreme Court following the annulment of the June 12, 1993, presidential election.

In a video posted by Channels Television on their YouTube channel, Governor Fubara referenced the historical significance of the June 12 election annulment, which led to widespread controversy and legal challenges.

He said that in the aftermath, the Supreme Court made it clear that courts should not be used to obstruct elections, but rather, any grievances arising from the electoral process should be addressed afterward.

This ruling, Fubara explained, remains relevant today and applies to all elections, including the LGA polls in Rivers State.

Fubara emphasised that the proper procedure for anyone dissatisfied with an election is to seek redress through legal channels after the election has been conducted.

He added that while legal challenges to the results are valid, such challenges should not disrupt the electoral process itself.

Fubara said, “After the incident that happened in Nigeria on June 12, 1993, the Supreme Court ruled that when it comes to issue of election no court should stop the process of election.

“If you feel aggrieved or you don’t want to participate in the election, you go to court.

“Why do you want to stop the process of election? To create problems and anarchy in the state?”
