 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.

 Former NEC Chairman Humphrey Nwosu Is Dead


Professor Humphrey Nwosu, the chairman of the National Electoral Commission (NEC), now known as the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), from 1989 to 1993 has been confirmed dead.


Nwosu, born on October 2, 1941, breathed his last in a Virginia hospital in the United States.

Appointed by the then military dictator, General Ibrahim Babangida, Nwosu oversaw the election that many still regard as the freest and fairest in the nation's history.

In that presidential election, Chief Moshood Abiola of the defunct Social Democratic Party (SDP) triumphed over Bashir Tofa of the defunct National Republican Convention (NRC).

Nwosu's commission introduced the novel

Option A4 voting system and the Open ballot system.

Despite his efforts, Nwosu was forced to halt the release of the election results by the Babangida regime before the final tally could be announced.

In July 2024, the House of Representatives called on President Bola Tinubu to immortalize Nwosu. Nwosu's commission introduced the innovative Option A4 voting system and the Open Ballot system.
