Court Strikes Out PVC Suit Filed By Group by realjoker(op): 11:59pm On Mar 18, 2015
A Federal High Court in Abuja has ruled out a suit filed by a
group, Society for Advancement and Protection of Public
Rights, seeking an order to stop the Independent National
Electoral Commission (INEC) from exclusively using the
Permanent Voter Cards for the conduct of the forthcoming
general elections.
Justice Abdulkadir Abdul-Kafarati, struck out the suit
following the application of discontinuance filed by the
group .
The counsel to the group, Mr Olatunji Salawu, said the suit
withdrawn had been overtaken by events because of the
latest developments of wider distribution of PVC, pointing
that there was no need to continue with the suit .
Meanwhile, the group had since filed another suit before
Justice Gabriel Kolawole, opposing the use of card reader
machine in the forthcoming polls scheduled to hold on
March 28 and April 11, 2015.
The group hinged its prayers on the grounds that the use of
the card readers was likely to lead to the
disenfranchisement of eligible voters and prayed that the
court, should among others things, direct INEC to revert to
the use of temporary voter cards, which it said, had been
tested during previous elections

the functions served and craved by some entities in nigeria are self contradictory nomenclaturally.

Why would a group tagged 'Society for Advancement' oppose to the introduction of technology(card reader) to our electoral process on the basis of an unwarranted assumption of disenfranchent, when w´ve be assured by the organiser.
