NDP Hails Court Ruling Ordering INEC to Register Party

The National Democratic Party (NDP) has welcomed the Federal High Court's decision ordering the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to register it as a political party. The court found that the NDP met all constitutional and statutory requirements for registration, declaring INEC's previous refusal null and void. The ruling mandates INEC to issue the NDP a certificate of registration and accord it all rights and privileges due to a duly registered political party in Nigeria.
