Aisha Yesufu Criticizes INEC Over ADC Derecognition
Aisha Yesufu, a political activist, expressed her shock and condemnation of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) during an appearance on Arise Television. She criticized INEC for its decision to derecognize the leadership of the African Democratic Congress (ADC), labeling the act as illegal.
Yesufu argued that the electoral body does not have the legal authority to delist a political party, as such powers are not granted to them by law. She emphasized that the commission is not a court and cannot override or reinterpret court rulings.
Yesufu maintained that the ADC's leadership remains legitimate despite INEC's actions, highlighting the importance of adhering to judicial decisions and the rule of law in the political landscape.
