Section 83 and the Myth of Judicial Silence in Party Politics

The recent assertion by my brother, Festus Okoye Esq, that lawyers have become scapegoats in internal party conflicts owing to their recourse to the courts calls for careful constitutional and judicial interrogation. At the centre of this debate lies Section 83 of the Electoral Act 2026, particularly the suggestion that it absolutely ousts the jurisdiction of the courts over the internal affairs of political parties. With the greatest respect to lawyers who are holding this view, that broad interpretation may appear overstretched and not constitutionally sustainable. Section 83(5) of the Electoral Act, read in isolation, appears to bar courts from entertaining disputes relating to party internal issues absolutely.  On a literal reading, it suggests a legislative intent to shield political parties from judicial scrutiny. That may not absolutely be true. Such a construction ignores a foundational principle of Nigeria’s constitutional order, which is the fact that...

Courts and their jurisdiction.

There are different types of courts in Nigeria. Each of them has its own functions. So, what are the hierarchy of courts in Nigeria? Let's find this out together. Actually, courts in Nigeria are renowned and recognized as the hallowed chambers of jurisdiction, where candid justice is meted out to all and sundry, without favoritism, sentiment, emotion, or being unnecessarily involved in crass legalism. What is more, we do not only have courts of law but courts of equity as well. The Nigerian Constitution divides the government’s structure into three branches – the legislative, executive, and judiciary.

Courts are authorized by law to exercise jurisdiction at first instance, and on appeals in all proceedings and actions relating to matters between people, or between government/authority and any person in Nigeria. It is also aimed at defining any question as to the civil rights a...
