INEC Boss Mahmood Yakubu Says It Received 108 Political Party Applications

The Independent National Electoral Commission Chairman, Prof Mahmood Yakubu, on Wednesday, said that in the last one week, INEC had received 108 applications from associations seeking to be registered as political parties.





He said that 66 of the applications did not meet the initial requirements, while 33 passed and had proceeded to the next stage. He said that nine others were at the final stage of registration.


The INEC boss commended political parties for the roles they played in the governorship and National Assembly by-elections in Anambra, which ensured that the exercises were crisis-free.
He urged all existing political parties yet to comply with all relevant sections of the constitutional requirements necessary for their existence, to do so.


He advised the parties to ensure rancour-free conventions and congresses ahead of 2019 and the Ekiti and Osun governorship elections later in the year. Yakubu urged the parties to support the commission in its quest to sanitise the voter register by drawing the attention of the umpire to any irregularity.
