INEC Chairman Denies Plans for One-Party State in Nigeria

In an interview on Friday, INEC Chairman Prof. Joash Amupitan addressed concerns regarding the commission's role in the political landscape of Nigeria.

He firmly stated that he is not part of any plans to transform Nigeria into a one-party state. Amupitan emphasized that the commission's recent decision to delist the leadership of the African Democratic Congress (ADC) was made independently and was not influenced by social media or public opinion.

He noted that the judgment regarding the ADC's leadership was not a decision made by him personally, but rather a reflection of the commission's mandate. Amupitan's comments were aimed at clarifying any misconceptions about INEC's actions and reaffirming the commission's commitment to maintaining a multi-party system in Nigeria.
