 NDC STATEMENT ON COURT RULING Our attention has been drawn to a ruling by the Federal High Court sitting in Lokoja this morning, wherein His Lordship, Honourable Justice Isah Dashen, gave a ruling on an application filed by an unregistered association known as Peace Movement Party. The public knows that by December 2025, the Nigeria Democratic Congress  as an association complained of INEC’s refusal to register us as a political party, whereupon we proceeded to the Federal High Court. The Federal High Court upheld our constitutional right to freedom of association under the Constitution and compelled INEC to register us, which INEC did. Since then, we have started political activities, embarked on the registration of members, held congresses from ward to national levels, held conventions, and concluded primaries to all offices following INEC’s timetable.

WE ARE IN THE PROCESS OF RECRUITING,NOTHING LIKE MASS RESIGNATION AHEAD OF ANAMBRA STATE ELECTION-INEC.[PHOTO].

The Independent National Electoral Commission says it has adequate manpower for the conduct of November 6 governorship election in Anambra.


INEC Resident Electoral Commissioner in Anambra State, Nwachukwu Orji, disclosed this in an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria on Tuesday in Awka.


Orji, who was reacting to viral media report that hundreds of adhoc workers recruited for the Anambra election resigned en-masse, said there was no truth in the publication.


“INEC is still in the process of recruiting the adhoc workers, in fact we just finished the last training before this false report.


“As the head of the commission in Anambra, I am telling you authoritatively that we have more than enough manpower for the conduct of the forthcoming governorship election in Anambra,” he said.

The INEC official explained that none of the adhoc workers being recruited had been given engagement letter.


“If we have not issued letters to them, how then can any of them resign?” he wondered.


Orji said it was unfair for the mass media to be aiding publications capable of causing more tension in the polity.


He said that a lot of people in the country were looking for work to do so as to improve their lives, adding that it was bad to publish stories capable of frightening the poor masses.

“Taking INEC jobs during elections has been one means for people who do not have permanent jobs to earn little money. Publishing negative report that will scare them is so bad,” Orji said.
