Following Thursday’s supreme Court judgment, the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has revised its official database, restoring Senator David Mark as National Chairman of the African Democratic Congress (ADC).
The Agency’s current website also reinstated other principal figures within the party’s National Working Committee, including a former Osun State governor, Rauf Aregbesola, as National Secretary.
A few weeks ago, INEC had delisted the Mark led executive from its website in compliance with a directive issued by the Court of Appeal, which resulted in protests from the faction loyal to Mark as well as criticism from opposition voices.
Recall, the Supreme Court on Thursday nullified the earlier ruling of the appellate court upheld the appeal brought by the Mark-led faction and directed that the substantive case filed by aggrieved party member Nafiu Bala Gombe at the Federal High Court be heard promptly and decided on its merits.
