LABOUR PARTY – LP, has threatened to protest at the offices of the Independent National Electoral Commission – INEC, nationwide over the Commission’s failure to allow it to inspect materials used for the presidential election of February 25th, 2023.
“As we speak INEC has chosen to obey the court order given to it to reconfigure the BVAS machine, which they are doing right now and ignoring the order granted to us to inspect electoral materials,” the LP Presidential Campaign Council – LP-PCC, spokesman Dr Yunusa Tanko
said in the statement.
“We, therefore, call on the general public to note the level of lawlessness and brazen disobedience to a lawful order of a court by an important statutory agency such as INEC, which is a well-calculated attempt to undermine and frustrate the presentation of the Petition by the Labour Party and its Presidential candidate before the tribunal in good time.
“We, therefore, want to state that we will not fail to call our supporters to march to INEC offices nationwide in a non-violent protest which is allowed by law. This is to curtail the flagrant disobedience to court orders by INEC.”
