The Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, has revealed it has not yet received the Certified True Copy of the Federal High Court's judgment that nullifies the leadership of the African Democratic Congress, ADC. The ADC, led by former Senate President David Mark, is embroiled in a leadership crisis. A former Deputy National Chairman of the party challenged the emergence of this leadership in court.
The court found fault with the process by which the leadership was established, leading to its nullification. INEC denies removing the party's leaders from its online portal. The commission's National Commissioner and Chairman of its Information and Voter Education Committee, Mohammed Haruna, made these statements in Abuja. He explained that obtaining a court judgment can take several days.
The ADC plans to appeal the ruling in an appellate court and has requested a stay of execution pending its appeal.
