Council and vice chairmanship election.

She added that after their emergence, ADC “made efforts to upload to our INEC Forms EC9 and EC13 categories to the portal but could not get access to do so”.

Goodness explained that cor­respondence between ADC ICT staff and INEC ICT staff revealed that “the substitution notification letter from ADC to INEC was the issue as the access code given to ADC through her former nation­al chairman could not be used by the current national chairman of the ADC since INEC did not recognise the signatures of the current national chairman and national secretary of the ADC, that is Senator David Mark and Ogbeni Rauf Aregbesola.”

The plaintiffs claimed that they later wrote a letter to INEC to give ADC access to upload their names as candidates in the Feb­ruary 21 election but that INEC refused to receive the letter from their lawyer, Kalu Agu.

“That INEC is hell-bent on de­nying ADC access to upload our names on the INEC portal”, they submitted.
