Falana Applauds INEC’s Neutral Stance Amid ADC’s Supreme Court Case

Femi Falana

Human rights lawyer, Femi Falana, has defended the decision of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) not to file any process in the ongoing appeal involving the African Democratic Congress (ADC) at the Supreme Court. He recently described the move as consistent with legal and constitutional provisions, and Nigerians have been reacting.

According to him, INEC’s refusal to either support or oppose the ADC’s appeal reflects the commission’s obligation to remain neutral in intra-party disputes.

He concluded by reiterating the fact that electoral bodies are required by law to avoid taking sides in conflicts within political parties.

WOW.
