AAP to INEC: Obey Court Order on Party Registration

The African Alliance Party (AAP) urged Nigeria’s Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to promptly comply with a Court of Appeal order directing the party’s registration. In a communiqué issued Thursday after a meeting of its National Executive Committee in Abuja, AAP praised the June 11, 2026 ruling by the Makurdi Division and the Supreme Court’s dismissal of INEC’s application for a stay of execution. The party said it is ready to contest the 2027 general election and urged its members to remain calm. It also called on Nigerians to vote and ensure their ballots are reflected in the final results rather than relying solely on INEC’s IReV portal.
