NDC ACCUSES INEC OF WITHHOLDING PORTAL ACCESS CODE

In a similar development, the Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC) has alleged that the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) denied its request for the access code required to upload the names of its candidates to the commission’s nomination portal.

Speaking on the development, the NDC’s National Publicity Secretary, OSA DIRECTOR, said the party had approached INEC to obtain the access credentials needed to complete the online submission of its candidates but was unable to secure them.

DIRECTOR  revealed that officials of the electoral commission informed the party that they would “get back” to them, preventing the NDC from completing the mandatory upload before the court issued its deregistration order.

He  also disclosed that the party would return to the commission to renew its request while simultaneously pursuing legal action to halt the implementation of the court’s judgment.

Meanwhile, the vice presidential candidate of the Nigerian Democratic Congress, NDC, RABIU KWANKWASO, yesterday met with the National Leader of the party, SERIAKE DICKSON over the recent court ruling on the party’s registration, resolving to reject alleged one-party democracy.
