Supreme Court to Hear Action Alliance Leadership Appeal Withdrawal
The Supreme Court has scheduled a hearing for November 16, 2026, regarding an application by Mr Adekunle Rufai Omoaje to withdraw his appeal against the leadership of the Action Alliance (AA). Omoaje, represented by his counsel Dr Ahmed Raji, SAN, initially filed the notice of appeal on September 28, 2026, after the Court of Appeal affirmed Chief Kenneth Udeze as the National Chairman of the party.
The Action Alliance has indicated that the withdrawal of the appeal signifies an end to leadership distractions within the party. The party's Media Directorate stated that this development would compel the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to comply with the Court of Appeal's judgment and recognize Udeze's leadership as the lawful one.
The party accused INEC of acting in a partisan manner and disobeying the Court of Appeal's ruling.
