Idowu,
Isnt more accurate to say that the party rules are supposed to be in harmony with the nation's contitution and such rules would yield to the nation's whenever there is conflict, than to say "...the court always defer to party rules and constitution in the selection of candidates."? You dont really mean that the court would allow an organizational rule to supercede the equivalent national rule because it is for internal operation. I say: No Jose! Think about that and restate your point. Take care. JUI

JUI:
When it comes to party election, party constitution and rules is the ultimate inasmuch as the fundamental human rights of anyone as stated in the Constitution is maintained. The same way Churches, Rotary Club, NIDO, even Oba, Obi, Emir etc., selection have lay down rules and constitutions.
Some of these rules and regulations in the selection of representatives are not into-to with the constitution of the land.
If we are to go along with your argument about conflict between party constitution and national constitution, we would have President Hillary Clinton instead of Obama. Hillary won all the big states with the most delegates. But because of the proportional allocation she lost to Obama. Whereas in the Republican Party, it is winner takes all.
The US constitution is winner takes all, the Democratic constitution is proportional delegates apportionment. Not only, that Barack Obama needed the support of Super delegates on elected party members to reach the finished line.
So my brother, the court always defer to party rules and constitution in the selection of candidates.
The people and the court are not saying GEJ can not contest the election, but he can not contest the election and represent PDP under current PDP rules and regulation in selecting their presidential candidate. That is the GEJ dilemma here.

Idowu,
Is the court defending the provisions of the Nigerian Constitution or the PDP party agreements? And where the two clash, which side will the court rule? Just checking. Take care. JUI

Guys:
This is a warning to Jonathan and his supporters. If PDP presents Jonathan, he would be disqualified by the court. His election would have contravene the party constitution and then the prayers of aggrieved person(s) would be granted.
The only hope for Jonathan is to fight to change PDP's constitution about zoning or move to another party to contest.
