Court Orders INEC To Register ADA Party, Issue Access Code Within 72 Hours by fergie001(mod): 8:59pm On Jun 29

‎Justice Peter Lifu in a judgement on Monday gave INEC 72 hours within which the access code must be released to the Protem Secretary of ADA.
‎
‎Justice Lifu in the judgement faulted the electoral body for releasing the access code to one Umar Ardo, who was not a recognized Protem Secretary of the political association and consequently declared the action of INEC as illegal, wrongful, null and void.
‎
‎The court further ordered INEC to open its portal for a period of one week to enable the plaintiff upload necessary documents, including membership register as required by law.
‎
‎The plaintiff through his counsel, Stephen Atabo, had dragged INEC and Ardo to court, seeking a declaration that the electoral body was in violation of the extant laws when it issued the access code to the second defendant, Umar Ardo, who is neither the Protem National Chairman or the secretary of the association, instead of the plaintiff, who is the protem national chairman.

‎Plaintiff further pleaded with the court to declare that the information uploaded into INEC’s portal by a wrongful person, or Umar Ardo on behalf of ADA, was in violation of the extant laws, as it was at variance with the information in the plaintiff’s letter of intent and should therefore be declared illegal, unlawful, null and void and of no effect.
‎
‎Besides, the plaintiff asked for an order of the court against INEC directing it to release access code to the plaintiff for the purpose of uploading their information and documents for the registration of their association as a political party.
‎
‎Plaintiff also asked for an order directing INEC to register their political association as a political party and as well issue a certificate of registration to the plaintiff.
‎
‎Similarly, an order of the court directing INEC to extend the deadlines of May 10, 2026 and May 30, 2026, for the submission of their digital register of members and submission of candidates respectively to the electoral body.
‎
‎After reviewing the submissions of counsel to parties involved in the legal battle, Justice Lifu agreed that Umar Ardo was neither the national protem chairman nor secretary of the political association and therefore nullified all the steps, and actions taken on behalf of the ADA.

Nigerian judiciary and INEC have become jokes under Tinubu's regime, very pathetic.

Nigeria have never had it this bad.

How can court now be the one deciding who leads Nigeria, this is completely wrong and must be condemned by all Nigerians of good conscience.

This is a trap! Obi must not fall for it.
The same justice Lifu is at work again. They want Obi to leave NDC to the ADA and then another court will nullify this judgement. APC weldone.

Camouflage judge, he is doing his best to restore his long-lost reputation. This man, called Lifu, should be fair to the profession he represents. As much as I have nothing personal against him, it saddens me that a judge of his calibre and repute would allow himself to be used for a petty political hatchet job.

When will court rule on prices in olosho house.

They should make it a flat rate . 2k for all night and 500 for ST.

Things are hard in this country but things that make people happy should be subsidized.

If I enter Senate next year. This is the first law I will like the Senate to approve

The devil is in the details. The judge ordered INEC to release the details to a Wike mole instead of the Umar Ardo that has been pushing for the party's registration. Meanwhile...the making of the Nigerian Paul Biya continues.
