The African Action Congress (AAC) presidential candidate, Omoyele Sowore, has condemned the Federal High Court ruling that directed the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, to deregister the African Democratic Congress, ADC, and four other political parties.
Sowore said this on Monday in a statement posted on his verified X handle.
According to him, the judgment was undemocratic and inconsistent with the principles of a multi-party system.
He equally stated that it was unacceptable for parties to be deregistered when they had already concluded their primaries and were preparing for future elections.
“It shall not stand. I totally condemn the deregistration of political parties that have already concluded their primaries and are preparing for general elections. Such an action is undemocratic and unjustifiable in a multi-party democracy,” he wrote.
