The African Democratic Congress (ADC) is appealing a court ruling that affirmed the legality of its state congresses led by David Mark's caretaker committee. The party's leadership, including Bolaji Abdullahi, expressed confidence in the Supreme Court to resolve the matter.
The Appeal Court has barred the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) from recognizing the state congresses led by Senator David Mark of the African Democratic Congress (ADC), upholding a previous ruling that deemed the congresses unconstitutional.
The Appeal Court upheld a Federal High Court ruling that prevents INEC from recognizing the state congresses organized by the David Mark-led leadership of the ADC. The court found that the leadership's actions violated the party's constitution.
The African Democratic Congress (ADC), led by David Mark, is heading to the Supreme Court following a setback from an appellate court ruling that upheld a lower court's decision to restrain the party's leadership from conducting state congresses.
