Ogbeni Rauf Aregbesola, the National Secretary of the African Democratic Congress (ADC) under Sen. David Mark, has written to the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) requesting a halt to any changes in the party's leadership pending his appeal against a recent Federal High Court judgment. The letter, dated November 9 and addressed to INEC Chairman Prof. Joash Amupitan, was also acknowledged on the same day.
Aregbesola's lawyer, Mohammed Sheriff, SAN, informed INEC that Aregbesola had filed an appeal and a motion for stay of execution of the judgment on November 7. The letter highlights the Federal High Court's declaration of Aregbesola and Mark as the duly appointed National Chairman and Secretary of ADC, respectively, and warns INEC not to take any discretionary actions that could impact the outcome of his appeal.
