Court orders INEC to supply voters’ register to AC

Delivering judgment in the matter, Justice Liman ruled that since the parties to the suit had agreed that it was imperative for the AC to have the voters’ register before the election, INEC should supply it with the current one and that they should return to the court on December 22 to report compliance with the order.

INEC had fixed December 12 for the re-run elections into the legislative seats, which became vacant when the Appeal Court sitting in Ibadan voided the election of Senator Iyiola Omisore of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and Akintunde Adegboye of the AC.
