INEC Rejects Turaki-Led PDP NWC Amid Court Order and Factional Disputes

The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has refused to recognize the Kabiru Turaki-led National Working Committee of the People's Democratic Party (PDP) citing a court order. Internal party conflicts between factions loyal to Nyesom Wike and Seyi Makinde have further complicated the situation.

INEC emphasized its commitment to due process and respect for judicial authority. The PDP has requested legal representation to address the legitimacy of its party structure following conflicting court orders and factional disputes.
