Kebba, Glad to butt in here. Needless to say, I concur w/ you whole-heartedly. Regarding the By-elections for these two deceased MPs' spots, there are in fact dozens of vacancies hanging: The Local Govt/Municipal and Chieftancy elections! The High Court said categorically that the so-called IEC HAS the mandate to conduct the elections pronto. So, if any elections are to be held within 90 days, priority needs to be the Local Govt... which are years OVER-DUE! The fact that Roberts and his people are talking about the two opposition seats, and not the Local Govt elections speaks volumes about this phony body. Keep holding the fort!
