This is what i just read from INEC, excerpt from LEADERSHIP newspaper

“No association by whatever name called shall function as a political party unless the names and addresses of its national officers are registered with the Independent National Electoral Commission. A close observation of your submitted form PA 1 established that it does not contain the addresses of your national officers as stipulated in the provisions above".

“Consequently, the commission shall not register the proposed African Peoples Congress (APC) as a political party.”

But the protem chairman of the party, Chief Onyinye Ikeagwuonu last Thursday said the move by INEC would be contested in court, adding that they complied with the provisions of INEC in filing for registration of their party.

I think this is a Grand style coop. At the long run, INEC register APC (All Progressive Congress), and APC (African People Congress will contest in court, then the Court will adjourn the case (as usually practice in Nigeria) , few days to election court rule against INEC, and lastly, INEC that like to follow rule of law dissolve the two party... CASE CLOSED - GBAM. This is my view of the whole scenario. What is your opinion?

Why cant they comply with existing INEC rules?

Lets wait and see if they can see beyond their nose...
