 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.

 Reps Urge CDS to Release Miyetti Allah President, Bodejo, from Unlawful Detention


The House of Representatives has called on the Chief of Defence Staff (CDS), Gen. Christopher Musa, and the Chief of Army Staff (COAS), Lt-Gen. Olufemi Oloyede, to immediately release Bello Badejo, President of Miyetti Allah, from unlawful detention.


Additionally, the House summoned Musa, Oloyede, and the Commanding Officer of the 177 Battalion to appear before the House Committees on Army, Human Rights, and Justice on December 20, 2024, at 3:00 p.m. to explain why officers under their command violated constitutional provisions.


This resolution followed a motion moved by Hon. Mansur Soro at plenary on Tuesday. Soro explained that Badejo was arrested on December 9, 2024, by officers of the 177 Battalion in Maliya town, Nasarawa State, without prior invitation or court order, allegedly due to a dispute involving a retired military general and some community members.


Soro raised concerns over the unlawful detention of Badejo, who has not been arraigned before a court, which violates his fundamental rights under Sections 34, 35, and 36 of Nigeria's Constitution. The House condemned the actions of the officers and called for an apology to Badejo for the infringement on his rights.
