FCT Court Orders INEC to Publish ADC Candidates' Names for Abuja Area Council Elections

The FCT High Court has directed INEC to publish the names of ADC candidates for the forthcoming Area Council elections in Abuja. The court's decision came after 17 ADC candidates challenged INEC's refusal to grant the party electronic access to upload candidate details.

The judgment emphasized the credibility of the plaintiffs and ordered INEC to recognize and publish the names of the ADC candidates for various positions. The court also mandated INEC to grant ADC electronic access to upload candidate names on its portal in accordance with electoral laws.
